Original subtitles

My name is Alex Vega.

I came to America an orphan from Cuba

and was adopted by Pancho Duque, a sugarcane grower

and a master blender of rum.

I married his daughter Isabel.

And when the time came,

Pancho gave control of the family business

not to his natural born sons, Frank or Henry,

but instead to me.

Perhaps it was because of the blood feud with our rivals,

Joe Samuels and his daughter Ellis.

Perhaps Pancho knew that to protect our family,

I will do whatever it takes.

That is both my blessing and my curse.

Previously on Cane:

praying something like,

"Don't get into a car accident. "

The feds are awarding a subsidy to build the fir sugar

ethanol plant in Florida,

and Alex wants it, to the tune of $100 million.

What, what does Papi say?

Papi's retired.

It's all up to us now.

I don't think we should be spending this kind of money.

Can't this wait? The sugar ethanol

moment is now.

We can be the Carnegies

of the ethanol industry.

I knew you'd be against it.

And you promised it anyway.

Senator's wondering whether you can double

your harvest. Absolutely.

So I have your assurance that Duque sugar is prepared

to put up $50 million of the cost?

I hope we've never given you a reason

to doubt us once we've made a financial commitment, Senator.

Why are you accusing my brother of murder? Whenou realize

who's lying and who's tellg the truth, call me.

No, I'm not gonna do that.

That keeps us diversified. Right.

Or we pull some money from the ethol side.

You know we're not having this conversation.

They-they don't even know

how to transport their stuff and you know it.

They can't use the existing pipes - Frank.

Frank, enough. This thing may never even happen.

The committee vote is in three days.

Then it's on to the Senate floor.

With Barnes guiding this whole thing,

it's a slam dunk, all right?

So just...

It's gonna happen.

Okay?

Hey, Grass,

what's up?

Vince.

Security let you in, huh?

Don't answ your phone anymore?

We're sort of in the middle of sething here, man.

You guys want a minute or something?

Yeah, that'd be great, Frank, sure.

All right, we'll finish this up on Monday.

Sure. All right.

It's good to see you, man. Yeah.

It was good to see you. Take it easy.

It's clean.

As I figured.

Thanks. Mm-hmm.

What?

They got something tonight, Alex.

A blood sample from Quiñones matches blood we found

right where that Miguel said he was buried.

His story is starting to add up.

A story that's got you giving the order, got a guy killed.

Come on, Vince, a disgruntled worker points his finger at me-

Yeah, the same worker who disappeared

right after he ge us this story...

Gave the Samuels this story.

Come on, man!

I can't even hear this anymore. Alex!

Alex, a Detective Hodgess on his way over here

right now; he wants to a you some questions.

What? It's what I was calling you about.

I warned you this thing wasn't just gonna go away.

It's out of my hands no you understand?

You're on your own.

Are you telling me that I should get a lawyer?

I'm telling you...

I'm telling you should start thinking about it.

You know what?

I don't need one.

Vince, I didn't have anything

to do with this.

Hello.

Whatcha doin'?

What time is it?

Are you in trouble?

No, no, I was just finishing up with some work,

just wondering what you were up to.

Just thought I'd, uh...

Make a booty call?

I'm honored.

You want company?

I'm not alone.

Oh. I didn't realize that...

Hope I'm not interrupting.

Oh, hey.

Uh...

Detective Nick Hodges, Alex Vega.

How's it going?

I'm tired.

Out late on Saturday night doing a murder investigation.

How are you?

Coming, I'm coming.

I heard you.

I thought I told you I wasn't alone.

Of course you did.

I... tught we weren't talking.

We're not.

And you registered a complaint

with Detecve Grasso

that Mr. Quiñones was threatening your family.

That's right.

And the last time you saw him was when your security

was ushering him off yourroperty

at your Fourth of July party.

Yes.

Okay.

Appreciate your help.

It, uh, be best if let my office know

if you have anplans to leave town.

That really necessary?

Not necessary.

Just be best.

Night, Alex.

Night.

Now that I'd like to ame and keep on my wall.

Yeah, I thought you'd like that.

I like it enty. The problem is,

the ethanol vote's in three days.

Unless they indict Vega between w and then,

he's still gonna get those subsidies.

Didn't you say

without the airman the committee vote goes

against ga?

How sure are we

about the senator's particular proclivities?

Positive. All right.

Let's put an end to Vega's ethanol party.

Just say when.

When.

Hey.

Hey.

I didn't wanna wake you.

It was, uh...

fun last night.

Perhaps we can squeeze in aunch sometime,

between "not talking"

and having sex on my staircase. You're right.

I'm sorry. I shouldn't have called you.

That was not a...

a healthy way to go about a breakup. Well,

why aren't we talking anyway?

Is it really just because I told you Alex may have

played a role in a man's murder?

Bye, Ellis.

Mom?

What time are we going to abuelo's house?

Um, we'll leave in a couple hours.

Why?

Can I take a car and meet Rebecca early

if Grandma's there the whole time?

It'll just be like I'm grounded there instead of here.

Look, why don't you go ask your father.

Thanks, Mom.

Ah, no, no, no.

He hasn't said yes yet.

I got it.

Hello.

Es Santo.

May I speak to Mr. ega? Hi, Santo.

Yeah, he's right here.

Hey. Hi.

Hold on for a second, okay?

Sorry, I wanted to know if I can go to Grandma's

early. Yeah, sure.

Because it'll be like I'm, I was grounded there

instead of here- It's fine, it's fine.

Thanks, Dad. Yeah.

Hey, where have you been?

Oh, I was at church. Is everything okay?

We need to talk. I see that you called three times.

Now.

Turn that off.

Turn it off.

Pull over.

Pull over, man!

Let me out.

¿Que pasa?

¿Mr. Vega, que pasa? Where's the gun?

What gun? The gun.

The.38 Quiñones was shot with.

It's gone.

I already told you this. Tell me again!

I dumped it in the ocean.

What about the shovel? The shovel tt you used

to dig a hole... I know where the shovel is.

Where? Where? Where? Where?

Mr. Vega, it's all done.

I took care of everything. You keep telling me that, Santo.

But they found the body.

And then they found the bullet.

And they're gonna put him

in that hole where Miguel said he was.

There's nothing more to find.

Miguel, Miguel is gone.

This keeps up,

we both gonna wind up going down for murder.

Por favor tranquilizese, Señor.

No, no, no, no, no.

'Cause they're gonna start asng

questions and we gotta be together on this.

You understand, Santo?

Of course. Always. No!

Do you understand?

We got to stick togeer.

We don't give them,

we don't gi them anything.

¿Entiendes?

Claro que lo entiendo.

family, Santo.

This has to go away.

Wait for me in the car, please.

What, are you stalking me?

You got a second, Frank?

Yeah, sure, what's up?

Man, ho's Alex seem to you lately?

Seems good. He's just, you know,

he's working his ass off.

Nothing new there, why?

He's handling the pressure, nejob and all?

Yeah, sure, why? How'd he seem to you?

I think he's really coming up.

Got himself a driver and everything.

Well, he's a busy man.

You know he's an ex-convict, this Santo?

Ran with some pretty bad guys in Cuba.

Is that weird to you at all?

Alex choosing a guy like that?

Okay, what are you getting at here?

at do you know about the Luis Quiñones murder?

The guy that they fished out

of the 'glades with a bullet in him?

Did Alex tell you that Quiñones threatened his family?

Man, I mean, if someone threatens my family,

my brother would be the first to know.

I mean, what...?

You think Alex had something to do withhis?

You think he did?

What I think is you ought to go out there

and you find yourself the real killer.

Come on guys, where are you?

They've got to be in here.

Ah, hey, hey, hey.

Well, look at that. What a team.

Henry, hello, and who is your lovely friend?

This is Katarina.

On his bride's head? He better notice.

Well, good luck.

I'm sorry. I'm a mplete downer today.

Being under house arrest

It'll be over before you know it.

And so will my chances with the hottest guy in the world.

What news? What happened?

Prende latelevision, por favor.

La television.

I'm looking right now.

Senator Barnes of Florida

was arrested by a plainclothes

police officer investigating complaints of lewd conduct

in a men's restroom at the airport.

After the arrest, Barn was taken to the airport...

Can I, uh, call you ba?

Who is it?

Chevy in Detroit.

We were told he was detained for about 45 minutes...

Are you calling the senator?

Yeah.

Does this mean he's going to have to resign?

Hi. Alex Vega.

Do not hang up the phone, okay?!

Vega. Alex.

Actually, I'm looking for his chief of staff.

Is she...? This guy has children.

So this is the man we've staked our future on?

Which hounds you like, Santo?

I like four and five

Four looks a little light but they say

neighboring pairs'll run together,

stay out of trouble together.

Surprised Vega let you out of his sight.

I'm him, I'd be watching you like a hawk

with the police closing in and all.

I'll bet he's talking a t about loyalty these days,

telling you to stay close.

What he ain't telling you, is that your boss,

and Detective Grasso grew up in the orphanage tether.

Santo...

I just want to see you beat Vega to the punch.

Tell the DA what you did

and who for and you could be a free n.

Or you can stay yal right up to the point

they put you in that electric chair.

How about that?

Number five.

Never looked back.

Number four...

just didn't have the weight.

Yes, I'll hold.

This I is probably not what you need right now. Thanks.

Hello?

Yeah, I just want to let him know

that I haven't spoken to the senator as of yet.

Of course.

I'm on hold again.

GM. The guys from Detroit.

As soon as I speak to him.

Of course.

Thank you.

Santo not here yet?

I haven't heard the doorbell.

So you haven't been able to speak to Senator Barnes?

Haven't gotten him.

And what if he resigns?

He won't. I won't let him.

I think I should call Mrs. Barnes.

I think they'llass on that I called.

Your calling- that's about ethanol.

I feel I should call as a friend.

Okay, fine.

Great. I- I gotta run.

Love y.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Oh, my God.

Chris?

Hi. Yeah, I know it's a bad time.

Just wanted to let the senator know

that we're there for him.

♪ She can take you in...

Geez. They're all so awful.

I mean, it really is all about

making the bride look good, isn't it?

Oh, you ha to stop.

Why? Why? What did I do?

I have to pick one.

My mom's seriously going to quiz me.

All right, all right, here we go.

Aha! This one.

This is the one.

You'd-You'd be gorgeous in this, seriously.

It's a v-neck, uh, tea-length, chmeuse dress

with a gathered midriff.

I'll never remember that.

Sure you will. Try.

Okay. Uh...

V- neck, charmeuse, uh, tea length...

Mm.

...midriff.

Gathered midriff. Gathered midriff.

And what, the, uh... what the bride think?

Uh, Rebecca? She...

She-She liked it, but she was so irritated

with the woman who was taking a million phone calls,

that she couldn't imagine giving the lady her business.

You're too good at this.

I just want to be able to see you again, that's all.

(heavy breathing

That's Joe Samuels on one.

Keep trying Santo for me.

What'going on, Joe?

I just wanted to say how sorry I was

to hear about your Senator Barnes' fall from grace.

Thanks.

all that time and energy

on these ethanol subsidies wasted

because of two men in a bathroom stall.

Now, help me with something, would you?

I'm confused.

See, there are call girls,

but thisella who had relations with Senator Barnes,

do we call him a call boy?

Or is it male prostitute?

It's got no ring to it.

Do you know, Vega?

Hey, he has a family.

Well, why should I care more about that

than he evidently does?

You know, I think I remember

when my people told me of this opportunity.

They said the good sator had an appetite

for male hookers.

That sounds righ doesn't it?

le hookers.

Thanks for helpinge clear this up.

I'll talk to you later... Vega.

Your brother's ready in his office.

See if you can g me Senator Barnes

on the phone, please.

Uh... hmm.

Hi. I have Alex Vega for him.

Thanks. They' return.

Oh.

Christine Kim, his chief of staff.

Keep trying till you get somebody.

Frank, I, uh, got... I got to push.

I'm trying to deal with this Senator Barnes thing.

Do we know athing yet?

No. I'll let you know, though.

We can do this later?

Yeah, yeah, of coursesure.

Yeah.

Vince Grasso's on one for Alex.

I'll return.

He says it'urgent. It's about Santo...?

You don't have me, okay?

Thanks.

Yeah.

Come on, Santo, pick up.

County police! Open up!

Armando Gutierez,

we have a warrant to search these premises.

Just-Just a minute, Frank.

Alex.

What?

He resigned.

The news just broke.

I- I just wasn't sure if you'd heard.

No.

Hey, Vince.

They're hauling your boy Santo in.

You're going to need to come down, too.

You're not just banking time at lunch so you can show up

on my doorstep looking for sex again, are you?

A slice of a lemon, please?

I promise not to mention

yo brother's alleged involvement in murder.

Well, actually, that's al I want to talk about.

Details.

Facts. You tell me everything you know.

All I'm saying is, um, it's not the best excuse.

I mean, if your mom calls,

and you can't put your yoga teacher on e phone,

you're busted.

You could be my yoga teacher.

Me? Mm-hmm.

I'm really not that flexible.

Really? Let's see. Yeah, really.

at is this? A yoga pose?

Okay. Ow! Ow!

Okay, okay, okay, that's enough. Come here.

Hey, you, uh, you want a little, hmm?

Huh?

Uh, yeah, sure.

Nancy, can you get Mr. Vega

a cup of coffee, two sugars, please?

All right, Alex, beeen us,

this thing's happening.

They got blood in Santo's car.

Nice bleach job in the trunk, genius.

Too bad you missed a spot.

Any minute the white coats upstairs come down to say

that they matched that blood

to your friend in those pictures there.

Now, we hear that Alex Vega gavehe order

to kill this poor bastard.

Vince, I told you before,

I had nothg to do with this...

Alex, Alex.

Detective Hodges is gonna break your boy in there.

He'll offer him a deal,

put this murder on you.

And make no mistake.

We know this Quiñones was a scumbag,

and he deserved to die.

But what doesn't deserve to happen

is that you go down for for this alone

when you were just following the boss's orders,

so don't betupid, Santo.

So Santo heard aboutQuiñones threatening your family,

figured he'd make some points with the boss.

You had no idea he was a murderer.

He's not a murdererVince.

Give Vega up

before those lab results ke it down here.

We got him. He's got you.

You're his only play.

It's about helping yourself now.

We both know this guy doesn't look like this

if not for Alex Vega.

Vega's problem... Vega's solution.

Why do you think he picked you?

Becae he's rich and important

and you're nobody.

Listen to me, Alex, you think this guy's your friend?

He's an ex-con from Cuba.

Their prisons make ours look like Sunday school.

He does this for a living- talk to cops.

And, right now, he's in there

throwing you over.

Alex, you got exactly one friend in this building

and he's telling you, right now,

turn this Santo in.

You are s "get out of jail free" card.

In fact...

I think I hearega and his best friend in the world

inhat office right now laughing about this.

Can-can, can you hear that?

We talked

about Rachel Olsen the other night...

Yeah.

You know, it took you a month

to admit to me what you did,

cheating with her behind my back.

Man, I knew the whole time, though.

You know how I knew?

Inhose 30 days, you never once looked me in the eye.

You...

I mean, you t everything.

I'm telling you as a friend, save yourself.

y.

Habla Ingles, rit, Santo?

Trthis.

"I did it for Alex Vega. "

Write it down right here.

Lab boys are quick today.

If I check to see what's behind door number one,

deal's off.

What's it gonna be, hombre?

Are you really gonna take the fall

for this... this rich guy,

who doesn't give a damn if you live or die?

Bad news.

Quiñones took a ride in your trunk, huh?

Last chance.

You gonna put this on Vega?

I don't think they're arguing about his drivg.

So, you tell me my brother's a murderer

and you're making jokes, huh?

I'm sorry.

I know this must be hard to take all at once.

What is all this? I mean you had him followed?

Quones was an employee of ours, Frank.

I'm sure you'd do the same for one of yours.

So this guy Miguel, who told you all this, where's he?

Nobody knows.

Yeah.

Your brother's ethanol dream's a shambles.

Police are closing in.

The crown is slipping from his head as we speak.

The only question is...

Are you gonna reach out and grab it or not?

What's this?

Kiss my ass.

Get outta here.

You can go home, Alex.

Find this missing witness, Miguel.

Oye! Can somebody gethat?

Hey, Vince.

Hey.

How's it going?

I'm hoping we're not throwing away tradition

in light of... you know.

'Cause whether you're pissed at me or not,

I still got a crappy TV.

Got the grill going.

Get to it.

Got some good ribs.

Baby backs? What do you think?

Whoo!

Yeah! Baby!

You gotta believe, you gotta lieve.

You, you have no faith.

Ooh, baby. You gotta believe.

at's that do to the spread?

Yeah, yeah.

Have some of this.

Just a taste. Just to be sociable.

Whew...

Salud.

Salud. Salud.

What's up, Vince?

Nothing.

Come on, spit it out, man.

I got one nagging question.

Shoot.

You said... you said you and your boy Santo

were together till... 00 a. m.

on the Fourth, right?

Right.

Phone records show a call

from his cell phone to yours at 1:30.

Any idea how that was?

I know what that was.

I took Santo to the barn to help me look case of Reserva

that Papi wanted me to open.

We called u back up at the house

when we couldn't find it, remember?

Yeah, that's right.

The case of Reserva...?

Reserva. That's right.

Anyway, I was just curious.

I got to tell you this idea I have for the rum fest.

You know, how maybe we can structure

the event just a little differently this year.

Great.

Love to hear it.

If you want to catch the big bass...

it's all about the hook.

Is everything okay?

Yeah, I'm just tnking about that Miguel.

You know what they say, it's just 90 miles away.

I just can't do this again, man.

Don't worry.

That's over.

Until he comes back on an inner tube,

and starts telling stories again.

That's imposible. Did it once.

Mr. Vega...

Miguel is not in Cuba.

That's over.

Thanks.
