No!
Victor 107.
Victor 107, go ahead.
Still waiting on Argenta.
She said she was coming 20 minutes ago.
Had to reroute for a UAC call.
Working on your relief.
How long we talking?
No ETA yet.
Hey, chief, where's your bathroom?
Baño?
Customers only.
Well, maybe you can make an exception.
Or you can sell me one of these boxes.
I'll take a shit in that instead.
All the way down on the left.
Hey, it's occupied.
Just a second.
I'd give it a minute if I were you.
Tried to warn you.
Victor 107 to dispatch.
Victor 107, go ahead.
I'm gonna need some backup
at the U-Store-All Plus
on the southwest corner of Airway Road.
I've got a tunnel
approximately 30 feet deep.
Copy, Victor 107.
We got a major bailout
at the Otay Villa Apartments
by Echo One, 12 UDAs.
Will send support ASAP.
Shit.
Fuck.
Oh, shit.
Stop! Stop!
Don't shoot in the tunnel!
Get the fuck out!
Get out, come on!
There's the man of the hour.
You know damn well you
shouldn't have gone down there.
What are you gonna do, fire me?
Hey, thanks, man.
It was a hell of a bust, though.
Talking CNN-level shit.
DEA brass is gonna be posing for pics
in that tunnel for weeks.
Hey, I can get back
down in that tunnel,
you know, snake it out,
see where it goes.
Eh, you've done enough.
Go on back to the station.
I'll be right behind you.
Good work.
What'd he tell you?
How we doing, fellas?
Glad we could clean this up for you.
- Surprise!
- Holy shit.
Aw, come on.
Here you go, Clemens.
- No, no, I'm good.
I'm good.
I think we got him.
- Hey.
- Hey, man.
I thought I made it clear
that I didn't want a party.
Hey, hey, don't blame me, all right?
This was all Joe Don's idea.
- Oh.
- Except, uh except for this.
I had everyone sign it.
Go on, open it up.
I figured you, uh you'd hate that.
You're right.
Look, Ben, before you go,
I want to thank you
for looking out for me.
- No, no, don't do that.
- Hey, come on, let me finish.
I'm giving you a direct order.
Shut the fuck up and drink.
I'm gonna miss you, you crusty bastard.
Hey, y'all, listen up
for just a second.
I just want to raise a beer
to Agent Ben Clemens.
Ben, after 32 years
of distinguished service,
the United States Customs
and Border Protection
officially kicks your ass out the door.
To Ben Clemens, y'all!
My guinea pig had babies.
You said you bought two boys.
Well, looks like I was wrong.
Go watch TV.
Ah.
- Are you going today?
- Yep.
Ben.
Thank you.
I hate to ask, but how long
do you think it's gonna take?
I won't know till I see it.
Ben, I loved my husband,
but Javi took
a second mortgage on the house
to pay for Mexico.
I have a meeting with the bank
to see if they'll give us an extension,
but they're gonna foreclose
on our house here
if I don't pay for Mexico soon, and
There won't be enough to cover the loan
without finishing the cabin.
Yeah.
We need to sell.
I'm sorry.
Hey, we both know Javi
would have dragged me
down there anyway.
He was a good guy, but
he was a shit carpenter.
Javi didn't leave us much,
but he left us you.
Do you need help, sir?
No, no.
I'm very strong.
You don't recognize me
without my uniform,
do you, Alvaro?
Stop!
God damn it, just stop!
How many times
you gonna do this dance, huh?
What's up, old-timer?
Joe Don, I need a 10-16
at the Home Depot on Plaza.
I must have picked
this asshole up five times
in the past year alone.
Ben, there's protocol.
Fuck protocol.
He's right here,
standing in front of me.
I can bring him in if you want.
Ben, it's not your job anymore.
Gotta go, buddy.
You gonna let me go now?
No, no, no, no.
Do I look like I need a necklace?
There you go.
That's better.
What a shithole.
Ugh.
Ooh ugh.
God, Javi.
Fucking
Jesus.
Ugh.
Ugh.
Christ.
Fuck this.
Javi, you were a fucking pig.
This okay?
Yeah, can I get a menu?
Menu?
Hi.
No menus necessary.
We make what's fresh here.
Oh, uh
got any fish tacos?
The best you'll ever have.
- Sold.
- Okay.
And un cerveza, por favor.
Okay.
Ahh.
What brought you to Estrella de Mar?
A friend of mine used
to eat here all the time,
and he was very picky
about his Mexican food.
- Smart friend.
And what's his name?
Javi Lopez.
He was a good customer.
Javi was well-liked around here.
You worked together?
He was my partner.
Sorry for your loss.
I'm Neto.
This is Eduardo.
- And Luis.
- Mucho gusto.
Ben.
You taking over Javi's old place?
I'm gonna fix it up,
try to sell it for his family.
The sooner you finish it,
the better, amigo.
Gracias.
You're welcome.
- Hey.
- Hey, stranger.
What's up?
Well, not that you need the reminder,
but you know, Kate's party's tomorrow.
Did you forget?
No.
Well, it starts at noon.
So come anytime.
Look, Jill, I really wish I could,
but it's been a busy week,
a lot going on.
Oh, it's not like you can use
work as an excuse anymore.
You know how it is
between me and Frank.
Your daughter is graduating, all right?
You know she got into
that program at USD?
Really?
That that's great.
You're her father, not Frank.
Okay?
You should be there.
You're right.
If only you had said that more,
we might still be married.
Probably not.
Now who's right?
All right, all right,
I'll see you tomorrow.
What, are you gonna arrest me, hick?
You got a problem, gringo?
No. I pay my bills.
Hey!
Yeah not you.
You!
Give me your best one.
Yeah.
How much?
Ten dollars.
- I got seven.
That's what I got.
Okay, seven is okay.
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
Yeah, it was pretty
cool to rumble through
a slot canyon at night.
We saw a herd of deer.
Regular cowboy now, huh?
Hey, hey.
You sure Katie's
gonna be okay with me coming?
- It just seems a little, uh
- A little what?
Like you just invited me
so you didn't have to go by yourself.
Well, this is
Save it.
Yeah.
- Ben! Hey.
- Frank.
- Happy to see you.
Bring it in, man.
- I'm good.
- Okay.
Uh, I've been thinking about you.
I mean, God, retirement is, like,
right up there with death and divorce
as one of life's
most stressful challenges,
so if you ever need a profession
- I'm gonna go find Katie.
- Yeah, okay. Hi.
- Hey.
- I'm Frank, Kate's stepdad.
Right, I'm Garrett,
Ben's emotional support animal.
- It's good to see you.
- Hey, come over here.
Hey, you made it.
Aw, let me look at you.
You look good.
Liar.
How's the leisure life?
I was just going over that
with Dr. Touchy McFeely.
- Oh, come on.
He's just trying to connect.
I wish he'd stop.
Well, Katie's by the pool
with her friends, but hang on.
I think you're gonna want this.
- Thanks.
- Mm-hmm.
Mmm.
- I'm gonna find the kid.
- Okay.
Whoo!
Dad.
Katie.
You want some?
You know how I feel about that.
Uh, yeah,
but no government job anymore,
and it's legal, so.
And you're still not a lawyer yet.
- Okay.
Can you just
Cool.
- I'm proud of you, kid.
- Thank you.
Thank you for coming.
I wouldn't miss it for the world.
Oh, yes, you would.
- You got a tattoo?
- I did.
Just a graduation gift to myself.
Oh.
That's really, uh it's nice.
Thank you.
I got something for you too.
It's nothing much.
It's
- Oh, my God.
That's beautiful.
You'll be the first Clemens
to have a master's degree.
I think Mom has hers.
Well, her last name is Kerr now.
- Huh.
Whose fault is that?
Are you seeing anyone?
No. Are you?
Uh, you know, I should
probably go say hi.
- I'm fine.
- I'm gonna okay.
Hey, live a little.
- Okay, family photo time.
- Okay, yeah.
Here we go. Hey, Garrett,
would you mind taking a picture?
- It'd be my pleasure.
- Thank you so much.
Hey, do you mind holding my beer?
- Okay.
- You.
- There we go.
Okay.
- Okay.
- Okay.
Bunch up, guys.
- In close.
- Okay.
- Cheese on three.
Sounds original.
- Hey, Ben.
Ben, Ben, come.
Come join us.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Ben, come in here.
- Come on. Come join us.
- Get in here.
- All right.
- You're part of the family.
- Come on.
- Here I come.
Could you hold this?
All right.
- All right, guys, bunch up.
On three.
All right, three, two, one.
Cheese!
Closed?
Not yet.
Hungry?
Always.
And how's the house coming?
I haven't had much time yet.
I was up north at
my daughter's graduation party.
You got any kids?
I wish I did.
You feed everyone who's crossing?
They were hungry.
Humans have walked on the moon,
there's a rover on Mars,
and meanwhile, down here,
we can't seem to stop fighting
over the lines in the sand.
Well, those lines were
put there for a reason.
A reason?
What would you do if a young woman
came to your door
hungry, hurt,
and looking for a job
Not a handout, a job?
Would she get to cross your line?
It's not my line.
But you held it.
It was my job to make sure
that my side of the line
was as safe as possible.
You sound like Javi.
I'll take that as a compliment.
You should.
He was a good man.
Javi was more than just
a customer, wasn't he?
I miss him.
That makes two of us.
- Help me.
- What the fuck?
Jesus Christ.
What the hell are you doing
in my truck?
- Stop.
I don't understand you.
Fear for me baby.
Okay, I'll take you back
to the restaurant.
No.
Estados Unidos.
Estados
Are you out of your fucking mind?
You are la migra.
Yes, migra, border patrol,
which is why I don't take you.
It's illegal.
Understand?
No bueno.
Stop!
Stay in the car.
You can ride in the front.
Jesus Christ.
I can't understand what you're saying.
- All right, you want help?
Come on.
Hey, they're gonna help you.
You're already making friends?
Hey, she's in trouble.
Eduardo!
Hey.
Take her home.
Eh, I got a daughter her age.
You think reporting him
is gonna do her any good?
If anything, it's gonna
get her killed quicker.
She fell in love with the wrong man.
She didn't fall in love.
Dante chose her.
She didn't have a choice.
Fuck me.
Shit.
Oh, f
Jesus Christ!
Hey, hey, what do you want?
What are you doing?
Okay, okay.
All right, easy, easy, easy.
Jesus.
All right.
Fuck.
Trick or treat.
Stay away from my woman.
Hmm?
Got it.
Oh, God! Damn it.
I'm pretty sure we already
went through this!
Hey, look, I told you I can't
Oh, fuck.
You can't be here.
You almost got me killed, comprende?
- All right, listen.
Calm down, calm down.
Calm down.
Calm down.
Shit.
Jesus.
Hey.
Hey.
Shit.
- Hey, fun party.
- I need a favor.
- Yeah, of course you do.
Why else would you be calling?
- There's a girl down here.
She needs asylum.
Down where?
- Mexico.
- What?
What girl?
I need you call
that ICE lawyer, Ingrid.
Have her put the wheels in motion.
Tell her that she fears for her life.
The girl's na uh.
Maria Elena Flores.
- Get ahold of her office.
Give her that name.
- Ben
- By the book, Garrett.
Just do it.
What's taking you so long?
What?
Hey, it's Ben.
I realize you might not be working,
but I need you to come
to the cabin now.
It's urgent.
You need to hide.
Go!
I don't mean to sound unfriendly,
but this is private property.
Get back in your car.
I'm not gonna say it again.
Whatever he's looking for,
he's not gonna find it in there.
Where the fuck is she?
Where the fuck is who?
Hands where I can see them!
Hey!
Drop that phone!
Drop the fucking phone!
Please, no kill.
We have to go.
We gotta go.
Come on.
Take this.
Take it!
Come on, we have to go!
Come on.
Get in.
Oh, thank God.
Fuck!
