And that is both my blessing and my curse.

Previously on Cane:

Joe Samuels was the one who had Lucia kidnapped.

I found out your little family secret,

'cause I know your father had Lucia killed.

Nothing to do with... No,don't waste your time.

Stay away from me.

ELLIS: Aren't you even going to try and deny it?

What's done is done.

ALEX: Mr. Fauro,I need you

to perform a service for me.

That was a big favor you asked for.

Ramon may want big things in return.

I'm in your debt. We're friends now.

That's what we do for one another.

(overlapping shouting) Come on,baby!

Aces,aces,aces... No aces.

(groaning) All right,throw 'em again.

(all banging table)

Come on,come on,givee aces.

(groans) Not my night.

(all banging table)

Here we go,here we go.

Oh-ho! Hey... jevas.

Never thought Cuban dice would be my game.

Could've saved myself all that heartache at the poker table.

Look,if you miss losing,we'll break out the cards,okay?

Oh,come on. The dice will turn.

Listen to this guy.

Little beginner's luck,and suddenly he's Mr. Cubilete.

Man,I'm just warming up. I don't mind taking your money.

ice hitting table)

HENRY: The DJ will set up over here.

The main bar's going to be slammed,

so we need a service bar at the other end of the pool.

WOMAN: I scheduled extra staff.

HENRY: Good,'cause this place is going to be

wall-to-wall half-naked bodies.

(chuckles) I went to one of these hotel parties in Vegas.

Best night of my life.

Well,what I remember of it.

Hmm,well,it's too bad that you have to be

the responsible adult this time.

Well,I got to be sober

to count all the money I'll be making.

Yeah,speaking of,um...

I was looking over our contract this morning.

Found a pretty big typo.

I'm sorry?

We agreed that I'd get 30% of the door and 40% off the bar.

Oh,I could've sworn it was 30% off the bar,too.

Juliet,I've been promoting this party at my club for weeks.

I'm going to make your hotel the place to be seen.

I'll fix the typo. Good.

You know,it's amazing.

All these people enjoying the sun and the fun for free.

And tomorrow,they'd sell their cars just to party here.

You know,I love hype. (laughs)

Okay,here's an example.

Your Florida distributor,late on his payments

and really bad on his math.

Yeah,well,that distributor's

been with my father since the beginning.

They had a change in management,

and I thought that I would give them

a little time to get their house in order.

Yeah,no time for favors.

Drop them.

I'll take that under advisent.

(banging table)

(laughs)

(banging continues)

Carabina.

I'd quit while I was ahead. Man,I'll be ahead

after I win all your cash.

Who wants to up the limit? Who wants to up the limit?

Come on,come on.

Just you and me.

Two grand? Three.

Let's go.

Uh,here is another example.

DiSilvio Trucking.

They reported 300 bottles broken last month.

Mr. Fielding,I'm in the liquor business.

We factor into our budget

a certain amount of loss-- breakage,theft.

There's only so much you can control.

You can't afford to look the other way anymore.

You got to stop the bleeding.

In business,employee theft

is as common as a cold.

At Duque,it'mutated into a virus.

(banging table)

All right,here you go. All my cash is in.

(banging table)

One more to win.

Oh-ho!

Talk about beginner's luck.

Empty your pockets,man. What?

This guy's got rigged dice.

Come on,man,you're the one who wanted to keep playing.

You got rigged dice. This guy's got rigged dice.

(knife clicks) Hey,hey,slow down.

Whoa,whoa...

No,no,no.

Time to go home,friend.

Learn to lose!

That's my car.

Not anymore. Get out of here.

Dezi sent me.

Dezi knows I'm good for it.

I need a couple of weeks,all right? Tops.

I just need to make some things liquid.

Look at it this way,the car buys you some time.

You know,I hear you got a couple of nice vehicles.

You want to keep driving 'em,I suggest you pay up.

(engine starts)

Just give me two more weeks,z.

Yeah,I know you like my boat,

and I want you to keep liking it from afar.

Yeah,and I will get you the money.

Yes,I will...

I'll call you back.

I'll call you. Leave.

Frank... No,no.

I'm doing this little dance with you anymore.

Come on,no. We're done. Get out.

Please listen to me. Get out!

I didn't know anything about Lucia.

I swear. Get out!

Why won't you believe me?

Do you really believe in your heart I would have

anything to do with a man who could hurt a child?

After you told me about Lucia,I confronted him.

He was so cold.

My father's a monster; I... I hate him,

and I hate that he might have cost me you.

Don't... Please.

(speaking Spanish)

You didn't come here just to play dominoes.

Eh?

The service you did for me a couple weeks ago...

I want to present you

with a busess opportunity.

DiSilvio Trucking delivers Duque Rum.

I suspect they're stealing.

You make sure my bottles stop disappearing

from the back of their trucks,

I will compensate you generously--

off the books,of course.

You'll be my unofficial...

loss prevention manager.

Businessman to businessman.

Exactamente.

Thanks.

You thirsty?

Yeah.

Hey,you okay?

You've been quiet all afternoon,and...

(sighs)

My dad's coming down from Jacksonville to meet you.

Wow.

When's the last time you saw him?

Like,two years.

I drove down to the airport to meet him.

He needed money.

This sucks.

It sucks your dad wants to meet the man you're going to marry?

Did you forget? We're already married.

He doesn't know that.

Wait,he doesn't,right?

I mean,it's like he's going

to come and kick my ass or anything.

Your parents are going to hate him.

It'll be fine. No,Jaime.

You know my dad split when I was fiv

He never sent a dime to help out my mom.

He's a deadbeat.

I know what's up,all right?

He found out that your family has money,

so now he's looking for a way in. Okay,now you're being paranoid.

No,I'm just going to tell him that I'm too busy to meet him.

So then when is he going to meet all of us?

I don't know. At the wedding?

I was hoping he wouldn't come.

I picked up the place cards for the tables.

They look beautiful.

Oh,wow. Thank you.

Why don't you check them out?

Mom,um...

You know,Rebecca's father is visiting for the weekend.

She's a little nervous-- can we do something nice?

Of course. That's exciting.

We finally get to meet him.

Look,why don't we do something special

for Sunday lunch,okay?

Okay. Thanks,Mom. Okay.

Hey.

Panchito?

Hey,Enrique Duque.

What a surprise.

If I look out the window,will I see flying pigs?

What are you talking about,huh?

I'm at the distillery all the time.

Guess we must keep missing each other.

I was just here at that big event.

Oh,how can I forget?

That was,uh,New Year's Eve,2001.

All right. Well,I'm here now.

All right,to what do we owe the honor,mijo?

Well,Papi,now that I'm part owner,

I want to be more involved in the business.

You know,in what goes on here.

Mm-hmm.

All right,could you hand me that bottle there?

Sure. Please.

Yes,that's a good one. There you go.

All right. Here my dear.

Thank you. You wanted that.

Congratulations. You're involved.

Is that a new blend?

It's a distillate.

Right.

So,Papi,

check it out.

I got them to sell Duque Rum exclusively

at that pool party that I'm hosting.

Excellent. Good.

Duque mojitos all day long.

You know,Terry...

you should come.

I'll put you on the list.

We'll see.

"We'll see" is what you tell a little kid

when you don't want to tell them no.

Well,your dad and I have a lot of work.

Well,I'm sure my dad

will give you the day off,right,Pop?

Of course.

We'll see.

Why does everything have to be so difficult between us?

'Cause we're not being honest.

And we're hiding on a boat.

Why are we still keeping this a secret?

I don't know.

I want to start acting like a normal couple.

You want to go steady?

Aw,come on.

Take me to the movies,strolls on the beach...

You know what I mean.

No. You and your father are on the outs.

This is the perfect time to let my family know how I feel about you.

You sure?

My father's beef is with your dad.

I know I can make him see this has nothing to do with you.

What about Alex?

He won't like it.

Good.

So how can I be of service to the FBI,Agent Clark?

Rosewood Investment Partners.

Not familiar with it.

CLARK: It's a Canadian company.

Just bought some land in Cuba.

Sugar fields,to be exact.

Canadians in the sugar business.

Thought they were more partial to maple syrup.

Huh. Yeah.

Rosewood is owned by Samuels Sugar.

Well,I don't much concern myself with the day-to-day anymore;

I'm semi-retired.

Mr. Samuels,are you aware it's a federal offense

for a U.S. citizen to do business with the Castro government?

As it should be.

No one hates a Red more than I do.

That's right-- because you're a tried-and-true capitalist.

That's why you set up a shell company to hide the purchases.

Those are quite the accusations.

And we have the documents to prove it.

My daughter Ellis is an enterprising young woman

always looking to expand my fortunes.

But she's kind of sweet on a Cuban man.

Likes to romanticize that little island.

She might've wanted a piece of it to herself...

well i think you should ask her these questions

Hey,hey! You guys good?

Yeah. All right.

Wow! Youhould get out of at dark room more often.

You look amazing! Thank you!

Took us forever just to get to the guy holding the list.

Graham!

This is Henry Duque.

Oh,hi.

It's a pleasure. Nice to meet you.

I thought a party might be nice.

He's only in town for a week.

Yeah,I can tell you don't live here.

Does the sun ever come out in England?

Actually,Graham lives in California.

He works for JPL.

Yes,I'm an astroologist.

He searches for signs of life on other planets. Mm!

I have to search for signs of drunk people in the pool.

Enjoy the party.

So,cheers.

Cheers!

ISABEL: So we have three possible locations for the fund-raiser.

When are you available to look at the spaces?

You make the appointments; I'll jt shuffle my schedule around.

Okay.

Well,next week is pretty open for me.

Isabel,we've been spending all this time together and...

I'm starting to feel very uncomfortable about something.

Frank and I are seeing each other.

Oh,my God! I knew it!

You did?

Well,I didn't actually know it,

but... yeah,I knew.

Why didn't you tell me?

Well,he wanted to keep it quiet

because of all the animosity between our families,

but now he's decided it's time to go public.

How do you feel about it?

Well,my brother can be a very difficult man to handle,

and he needs a strong woman to deal with him.

But I think you're great for him.

Thanks. I'm so relieved.

You know,maybe the four of us should go out sometime.

I don't think your husband will be too keen on that.

My father has his issues

with your father,and Alex does too.

But that was something that happened years ago,

and Alex has to understand

that you're not your father.

No,I'm not.

Frank obviously cares about you,I really like you.

Both of us can't be wrong.

Well,if you think you can convince him...

Let me take care of Alex.

Mom says you're driving Pops to the doctor.

How is he? Ah,he says he's fine.

But you know Pop-- his arms could be falling off

and he'd say,"All I need is a nap!"

How are you feeling? What?

You were sick yesterday.

Oh,you know,I had a little food poisoning.

You've been missing a lot of days.

What,I gotta sign an attendance sheet now?

You were MIA all the other week

just,uh,you know,chasing your ethanol senator around.

Don't turn this back on me,Frank.

That was business-related. Yeah,and I was sick.

You missed the consultant. He looked over the books.

Our trucking company's ripping us off.

Okay,fine.

I'll talk to Paul; I'll take care of it.

It's been taken care of.

what were you looking for me for?

It's about Ellis.

I talked to her.

She says she didn't know a thing about Lucia.

And I believe her.

Okay.

I said I believed her.

I said okay.

I'm not ending the relationship.

You're a grownup,Frank.

Date who you want.

Oh,wow,so you're not even gonna give her a chance,huh?

She says she didn't know anything about Lucia?

Yes. Fine.

That doesn't make her an innocent bystander.

Okay!

Nice office. Hm!

I love the artwork.

Thanks.

You know,I got something in,li,ten minutes.

What's up?

Your loss prevention manager has a report for you.

Okay.

They're stealing from you.

But my people made sure your merchandise arrived.

But I got a better way to fix your problem.

It'll be more effective.

Go on.

Hire me.

Sorry?

My people-- we can be your trucking company.

Hey,I could use something a little more legitimate.

What do your people know about trucking?

Enough to make sure that there are no more broken bottles.

And no more stealing.

Can you excuse us for a second? Sure.

We'll do this after lunch.

Thank you.

How you doing?

Good,sir.

So I know about the,uh...

half mil you owe.

What?

Don't,Frank.

I don't know where you heard that.

I've found addresses of,uh,

of meetings that you can go to.

Gamblers Anonymous?

What,you think I'm an addict?

All right,look,I hit a cold patch the last few weeks.

It goes that way. It's gonna turn around.

I looked over your last expense report.

You did what?

97 grand in miscellaneous charges?

Yeah,I entertained a lot of clients this month.

So I'm hoping you have receipts for that.

Oh,you don't trust me.

I don't have a problem.

It's a,it's a hobby,okay?

And it's none of your business anyway.

I'm gonna... I'm gonna get back to work.

You may have convinced everybody you're

You got some dirt under your nails,huh?

And who got you out of that messy situation

with the cops? I came to your rescue.

You are an addict,Frank. Get out,get out.

We all know about it,and nobody

wants to talk about it.

You're always asking; now you know

why Pop picked someone off the street

over his own son to run the company.

You okay?

I need you to buy my brother's debt off his bookie.

It's good for you,and it's good for your brother.

No,it's gonna be good for you.

Your guys are my new truckers.

You can be persuasive

with this bookie.

Can you get the vig reduced?

Possible.

Half a million dollars,that's... that's a large debt.

I could arrange to pay it off.

What would be the point?

With Frank's level of addiction,six months from now

he's back in the ho... who knows how many thousands?

You know how to manage people

with this kind of problem.

That's your business.

And if he places bets with your guys,

at least I know you're not gonna break his legs.

Start trucking for Duque,

you will land other contracts.

Especially with a recommendation from me.

Hi.

Hi,Daddy.

No,I've been meaning to call you.

I'm sick.

I don't know,just,it's strep or mono

or something very contagious.

What are you doing?

I-I gotta call you back.

I gotta call you.

We're having this lunch.

Your father could be... Fidel Castro and it wouldn't change

how my family feels about you.

Well,maybe not Fidel,

but you get what I'm saying.

I love you and that's

all that matters.

Hey,Dad.

Hey,you guys.

Becca,we're really looking forward

to meeting your dad this weekend.

I promise I'll be on my best behavior.

It's not you I'm worried about,Mr. Vega.

Please. Call me Alex.

You're part of this family now,okay?

Hey,baby. Hey.

Mmm. What? Hey!

What happened?

Frank and I got into a little disagreement at work.

And he punched you?

Yeah. You know. It's no big deal.

No big deal?

We're brothers. It happens.

Yeah,it happens when you're ten years old.

What were you fighting about?

Nothing important.

It's fine.

You're sure?

Absolutely. We're good.

Did you know he's dating Ellis Samuels?

He mentioned it.

Well,I've gotten to know her,and she's smart

and nice and sweet,and she's very generous.

She works a lot with these charities.

Alex,they want your approval,

and with all this fighting going on between you and Frank,

like today,for example,I think we should prop

him up a bit. Oh. We should prop him up.

We should go out for dinner,the four of us.

(laughing): You're very funny.

No,I actually made a reservation.

Excuse me?

Alex,come on.

I know he'd never say so,but it would mean a lot to Frank

and it would mean a lot to me.

Hmm?

Ondinner.

I rode dressage as a teenager.

I even made Prix St. George.

Mmm. You didn't tell me that.

Well,my father made me take

riding lessons,but I was never that good.

Oh,come on.

Tell the truth. She didn't like the smell of the stables

But I liked the hat and the boots.

That's the main reason I rode.

You remember this horse Papi gave you?

You called him

Benny More.

Oh. Yeah. Benny More.

Benny More's a Cuban singer.

I hate ignoring the elephant in the room,

especially when I'm the elephant.

I know you don't like my family,but...

I was hoping that Frank and I might be able

to bridge the gap between the Samuels and the Duques.

Ha. I don't know about that.

That would be a long bridge.

Well,I'm an optimist.

A glass-half-full girl.

FRANK: Well,Alex doesn't see the glass as half full

or half empty. He just looks at it

and says,"Who drank my water?

What's that even mean?

You can figure it out.

Should we get more wine?

No,I think Frank should tell

the table what he meant by that.

Explain to your girlfriend Here. You want me

to explain to her,or explain to you?

I think he means you're always looking out

for what's yours,and you don't want anyone

to take advantage of you.

It may not say great things about me,

but... I can relate.

ALEX: Well,one thing I know for sure,

I'm positive this bottle's empty.

Let me get the waiter.

Ellis Samuels?

Yes?

I'm from the FBI. I'd like you to come with me.

What do you mean?

I need to ask you a few questions.

What's this about?

Sir,this has nothing to do with you.

Just leave it,Frank.

Thank you for a wonderful evening.

I'm going to find out where they're taking her.

oh yeah we really need to do this again sometime very soon

This is real nice chicken,Mrs. Vega.

Isabel. We're practically family now.

If you ask me,

Becky won the lottery when she met Jaime.

It's the other way around.

And she doesn't really like being called Becky.

Oh. Yeah. Forgot.

I used to call her that when she was real little.

So,you're all pretty rich,huh?

Dad,don't be rude. Well,I'm not trying to be

and they're not hiding it.

Look at this place.

I'm sorry my mother isn't here.

She's visiting her sister

and she would have loved to have met you.

ALEX: Say,Gordon,you think you might

want to come and take

a tour of the distillery?

Really nice of you to offer,Mr. Vega,

but my dad doesn't have time.

No,I'll make the time.

I'd like to see how the better half

makes a living. You must have been

rolling in the dough back in Cuba,

huh,Pancho?

Well,actually,

my wife grew up more privileged

than I did,but we both arrived in Florida

with empty pockets.

GORDON: It's all about

the American Dream,that's why

everyone wants to move here.

My folks,they go back to the Pilgrims,

and I'm wondering why I can't strike it rich

like the rest of these new immigrants.

Mmm. Plantains?

Yes. Thank you.

Didn't get to say good-bye at the pool party.

Well,I didn't want to interrupt

your make-out session.

She's nothing serious.

I'm guessing none of your relationships are serious.

Actually,it doesn't appear that you take much seriously at all.

That's not true.

Well,you don't seem terribly interested

in the family rum business.

Well,that's because Alex and Frank are into it.

Me,I want to do my own thing.

Throwing pool parties?

Hey,you went to it.

Yes,but I went home.

You party 24-seven.

Why are you making me work so hard?

I bet you just flash those dimples,

and the panties just drop.

Am I right?

Happy blending.

So,Gordon,tell me,what do you do for a living?

A little of this,a little of that.

Nothing seems to stick.

I don't like to stay in one place too long.

Really?

Why is that?

I like my freedom.

It's in my nature,I guess.

So you choose to be free

instead of taking care of your little girl?

Please stop.

Son,Gordon is a guest in our house-- you're out of line.

It's just a question.

I think Jamie here wants to get something off his chest.

You had a responsibility to Rebecca.

Why didn't you ever send her any money?

Never had none. Wish I did,

but it's not like I never thought about 'em.

You didn't think about maybe trying to get a job?

Jaime,callate.

(speaking Spanish)

GORDON: See,it's easy for you,Jaime.

You'll inherit all this,and you'll never

have to work a day in your life.

Maybe when you head off to the Army,

you'll finally see how real people make a living.

Real people take care of their families

Excuse me.

Oh... en mi casa,no.

You know how hard this was for me.

Why would you make it any worse?

Babe,he's been talking about money all afternoon.

You said it yourself.

The loser's looking for an angle.

Did you just call my father a loser?

You call him that all the time.

Yeah,but he's my father!

I can call him whatever I want.

I'm sorry. Hey,really,I am.

But what's the big deal about us having money anyway?

It's not like we're snobs.

No,no. You are humble. You are.

But you al take it all for granted.

You're never going to understand

what it's like to barely get by every day.

Rebecca... When you don't have money,

that's all you think about.

When and where and how?

And that's how I was brought up.

That's all my father knows.

You're not taking

my boat,Dezi. I freed up some cash,man.

I got it in the bank. Don't worry about it.

It's all been taken care of.

Ramon Fauro settled your account.

Who the hell is Ramon Fauro?

Ask your brother.

Listen,Frankie,I can't take your action no more.

Oh,come on. You're cutting me off?

You want to place a bet,I got a new guy for you.

I'm sure he likes boats,too.

(laughs)

What kind of a man throws his own child to the wolves?

You seem upset,Ellis.

You're trying to pin this on me!

I take it the Federal Bureau paid you a visit.

You know I had nothing to do with those land deals.

I thought she'd be done throwing tantrums at her age.

Daddy.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to leave,darlKng.

We really shouldn't speak from here on without lawyers present.

Well,this looks pretty good.

If we could switch this to 11:30,

that'd be great.

Can I,uh...

Thanks.

I'm out sick one day,and you fire our truckers.

I would have liked to have weighed in on that decision.

I told you they were stealing.

I asked around about this Santa Cruz Trucking.

Ramon Fauro has got ties to it.

He's a bolitero-- he runs numbers all over Miami.

Did you know that? Yep.

Yeah. And you asked him to make my debt disappear.

I was doing what was best for you.

Oh... Thanks.

So you get in bed with a gambling syndicate

while you criticize me,huh?

They deliver our rum. Nothing else.

I'm going to pay you back

every penny,Alex,just do me a favor.

Just stay out of my business,okay?

Frank,what you do privately is up to you.

But,from now on,your business expenses--

they come through me.

You're the boss.

♪ ♪

Mom,don't start with the lecture.

I screwed up yesterday.

I just... I couldn't help it.

The way he was talking,I wanted to knock him out.

Oh. Well,that would have made the wedding very awkward.

Rebecca deserved better from him.

Yeah. You're right.

You know,your father is a very lucky man.

He could have ended up on the streets

if your grandparents hadn't adopted him.

Yeah,but even if they hadn't adopted him,

he would have made his own way.

He was also lucky to be born smart,

ambitious,good-natured,handsome.

Gordon's unlucky who he is as a person,

and you can't blame him for that.

You have to be more forgiving of people's flaws.

Life isn't so black and white.

Hi.

My shift starts in five minutes.

All right. I won't keep you long.

I just...

(sighs)

There's a good chance I won't be at your wedding.

I don't think you want me there anyway.

I embarrassed you the other day.

I'm sorry.

What's this?

It's just a safety net,

in case things don't work out

with Jaime.

Dad,why do you have to say that?

Listen to me. I know what

I'm talking about,all right?

His family,they're rich and powerful.

Classy people.

What if he wakes up one day

and realizes that he made a mistake?

What if he regrets marrying this non-Cuban girl

from the other side of the tracks?

Just take it.

I love you,honey.

Daddy? Yeah?

Where's Grandpa's watch?

You never take it off.

Don't need it no more.

Got the time on my cell phone.

Daddy,thank you!

(phone rings)

Hello.

Yeah,hi. Dezi gave me your number.

I'm Frank Duque. Yeah. Dezi.

Yeah. He said I could place a uple of bets with you.

What do you need?

The Dolphins game. What's the spread?

Three and a half.

Okay,I'll take that for $30,000.

Aha. Hanging with the birds again,huh?

Hey,mijo.

So,how was the party?

All the kids have fun? Hmm? Kids?

It was a pool party,wasn't it?

I'm assuming there were children.

Papi,it wasn't that kind of party.

Oh.

Oh,yeah,Papi,

you work with Terry.

Give me a tip on how to land her.

A tip?

All right.

Well,I've observed that you are unsuccessful

with women.

Unsuccessful? Me?

No,you must have the wrong child.

Hand me those seeds,mijo.

You're sure you're not talking about Frank?

Oh,you're successful in getting them into your bed,

but getting into their hearts,that's another matter.

It's not just about sex,Papi.

I talk to them.

Before your mother and I were married,

she was being courted

by one of the richest and handsomest man

in Havana. A Doctor...

Anyway,one time,I saw them eating ice cream

at Coppelia.

He spent the entire time,

scanning the room.

Preening like a bird for all the ladies.

Not once did he really look at Amalia.

So,one day,I waited for her after ballet class,

and I convinced her to let me walk her home.

And as we walked,I described

what I remembered from the ice cream parlor.

How she was sitting with her legs crossed at the ankles.

Her delicate hand on her cheek.

A rose-colored dress which matched her lipstick.

How,when she smiled,my heart came to a stop.

So I was paying attention,mijo.

I appreciated the details.

Terry is a rum blender.

With her,it's all about the details.

(playing piano)

(knocking on door)

Would you like a glass of wine?

What are you doing?

What do you mean?

Dating Frank.

Cozying up to my wife.

I care for Frank.

And Isabel and I share similar interests.

Ellis... Helping others.

Stay away from her.

Isabel reached out to me.

She seems so lonely,Alex.

You'll do anything to get into the Duque family.

I admit I do have a fondness for your family.

There was a time I was especially fond of you.

And you of me.

Why do you hate me so much?

I don't trust you.

You used to be so sweet to me.

That was a long time ago.

The past is dead.
