We're at War
1
Nestor Cabal owns this town.
He He controls the whole
Miami City Council.
- He sells boats.
- [LAUGHS]
[IN SPANISH]
I control almost every key
that comes into Dade County.
Until now,
the Colombians left us alone.
They wanna take over
my operation.
Fuck. Got you.
[MAN] Headquarters was
extremely interested
in what the Colombians
were doing.
Excuse me, who's the manager here?
- I'm Roman Compte.
- Yolanda Garcia Guerra.
[IN SPANISH]
You just need to get out of business
with those shady crooks.
[BURTON] She said your bank is
under investigation by the IRS.
You listen to me, you get her to stop.
I want your sister off our back.
I'm gonna have to take action.
Connie! No! No!
[YOLANDA, IN SPANISH]
From now on, I'll keep you out of this.
[ROMAN]
No, we're in this together.
I'm in the fight now.
[GUNFIRE]
[SIGHS SOFTLY]
Did you get any sleep at all?
Not much.
You?
Barely.
Please
Roman, just
Just tell me, what kind
of danger are you in?
I told you
My proximity to Nestor
makes me a target.
That's why Nestor's letting us
stay here with him,
where there is protection.
Look, we're not in any danger.
This is the safest place in Miami.
[SIGHS]
Mira.
[IN SPANISH]
[VALERIA GASPS] These look amazing.
My special pancakes
for a very special guest.
Enjoy.
[LATIN MUSIC PLAYING OVER SPEAKERS]
How do you like your room?
I love it, padrino.
And honestly, having my own TV
is pretty awesome.
I hope you're not up
late watching. Oh, thank you.
Well, I am. I only have
one complaint, though.
- What's that?
- Dad's eventually gonna
wanna take me back home.
- Please don't let him.
- Aw.
[ROMAN] Señoritas, buen provecho.
Buenos días.
Hermano, can I have a word?
Yeah. Excuse me.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
We need to find Yolanda
and end this fast.
My guys have been after her
since she left your hotel.
I reached out
to some contacts in Colombia.
We'll find her.
Good.
Hmm, then I'll get out of your hair.
- Why?
- What?
I like having you here.
I like having your whole family
here. It's been really nice.
I have a huge house.
There's plenty of money for everybody.
Even after we find this bitch
and kill her
please just stay here.
I'm grateful to you.
But once she's dealt with,
we have to get back to our own lives.
Nestor, we have a problem.
[IN SPANISH]
[NESTOR] Colombian necktie.
They killed three of our men
and stole the stash.
How much product was here?
Three hundred keys, boss.
That's fucking millions.
Can I make a suggestion?
- Yeah.
- Every one of your stash houses
shuts down and moves to a new location.
Communications
on a need-to-know basis only
and offer a $100,000 reward
for information
on a Mexican woman with Colombian ties.
Yes, my brother.
We're at fucking war.

Hey, I need intel on this
Yolanda Garcia Guerra.
Her name isn't on our register
of non-Colombian traffickers.
That's because she's Mexican.
How do you know that?
Her accent. [SPEAKS SPANISH]
You Americanos think
we all sound the same.
Uh, I've got a name in every department

That's none of your fucking business.
Do you understand? You've
actively made me a target.
I understand this is

[PEOPLE CHEERING]
[MAN] I'm gonna ask you one last time.
Where exactly were you
at 9:58 p.m. on Monday evening?
I was here at my hotel.
Okay. Where, here in your hotel?
What difference does it make?
Here in the club, at the pool,
in my goddamn suite.
I'm not the man
you should be talking to.
All right, so your whereabouts
are unknown.
Ray Dorado investigate him.
I've already spoken with Ray,
and he's got an airtight alibi.
[STAMMERS] Oh.
Now, your family, including your father,
have said that you hated your sister,
and that you regularly called her
- You called her a cunt.
- We had issues
And when she tried
to bail you out financially,
you went off the deep end
into a blind, drug-fueled rage.
The truth is a many-sided cube.
You ever hear that expression?
- No.
- I loved my sister.
But I borrowed money from Ray Dorado,
and she was auditing his bank.
He had her killed.
You don't have to go
to fucking detective school
to figure that out.
She was also auditing
your hotel, Mr. Greenberg.
[SCOFFS] You think I killed her?
I wouldn't even kill a mosquito.
I am a practicing Buddhist.
I believe in karma.
But Ray Dorado's bank
is a front for drug dealers
who would kill you
for sneezing on their shoes.
Oh, so you have proof
that Ray Dorado did this?
- Yeah, I do. My intuition.
- [LAUGHS]
It's never been wrong, okay?
[CLEARS THROAT] Just don't
leave town, Mr. Greenberg.
Look, if you don't
investigate Ray Dorado,
I'm hiring a private detective who will.
The only person you should even
remotely consider hiring
is a damn good lawyer.
Uh-huh.

[PROJECTOR WHIRRING]
Honey, where are ya?
Oh, I hope we can take Andrew to prom.
And, you know, I was thinking,
maybe we can throw
a big after party here
for you and your friends.
- Oh, my God, that'd be great.
- Yeah.
No, no. No parties.
No, I mean I just
I just think we're not gonna
stay here too long.

would take weeks to fix.

a lot of coke hanging around.
Around here?
V, your uncle is the biggest
coke dealer in Miami.
I bet he's got that shit
all over the place.
- You think?
- [ANDREW] Could you look?
I mean, it's just, you know,
I can't buy that shit at school
'cause my dad's a congressman.
Yeah, 'cause it's illegal.
Yeah, but so is driving
without a license,
but I do that all the time.
Maybe you can find some.

Who?

Hey, good to see you.
Hope you guys are enjoying.
I hear you got me a Mutiny card.
I should kill you right now.
That wouldn't be wise.
You sent hitmen to kill my family.
Mm
Sit with me,
if only to avoid
such mistakes in the future.
I I don't bite.
Okay?
I have my own problems.
For instance, Jeronimo.
He attacks Nestor's stash houses
without my permission,
and then, he gets himself arrested.
Bad news for you?
Hmm, bad for Jeronimo.
But good for Nestor.
Which is why I'm here.
Because I don't have time
to groom a Colombian I trust
to retail our cocaine.
And again, I don't find a reason why
Nestor can't be part of our
little and beautiful family.
He wants you dead more than I do.
But he's a businessman.
In this profession,
violence is best avoided.
Look, Roman
I'll meet Nestor Cabal
at Haulover Beach at 6:00 p.m.
I'll bring four men. He brings four.
Then we can discuss
the terms together, okay?
And if you get this right
I don't know, maybe
Maybe I'll let you fuck me.

We are the gateway for poisons

our Drug Enforcement Administration
for a major arrest and seizure.
Jeronimo Rojas,

was apprehended last night,
and is currently being held
at Miami Dade
Correctional Facility.

[MR. LANDON] From him,
we'll get information

for the emerging battle for
control of cocaine in Miami.
Now, a few words from the man
responsible for this heroic seizure,
Agent Dominic Zulio.

Ladies and gentlemen,
thank you for being here this evening.
I wanna thank the congressman
for his kind words.
Uh, however, I do wanna
emphasize something.
We are watching
the beginning of a war
between rival cartels
hell bent on flooding
our shores with cocaine.
Innocent lives will be lost,
and mark my words,
blood will spill.
[MARISOL] Valeria!

[ZULIO] The arrest
of Jeronimo Rojas
puts all traffickers on notice.
We will come after you, your dealers,

for safe passage into Miami.
I'm still working on getting
Coast Guard clearances
for the large shipment of, uh,
coffee beans your clients are arranging.
[RAY] Let's get something straight.
The people I work for
they were adamant
you get this done quickly.
The people you work for
need to cool down.
There are other players
in Miami powerful ones.
I don't want a war on my streets
while I'm running for governor.
We're fully aware you're working
with Nestor Cabal.
My guess is he's not gonna
be around very long.
So, if I were you, I'd choose
my loyalties carefully.
Well
Thank you for the cigar.
[BURTON SIGHS]
- [GUITAR STRUMMING]
- Hi.
- What happened?
- [DOOR CLOSES]
You never came back last night.
I'm so sorry.
I was talking with Ray, and I forgot.
What did that rat bastard have to say?
Look, I think he knows who's behind it,
but he's afraid to go to the cops.
Who?
- Who are they?
- He wouldn't say,
but I think you need
to let the police handle it.
The police are fucking idiots.
I care about you
a lot.
I wouldn't wanna see you hurt.
For my sake, stay out of it for now.
Okay.
Okay.
[LATIN MUSIC PLAYING]
[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]
Hey, good to see you.
Hope you guys are enjoying.
I hear you got me a Mutiny card.
I should kill you right now.
That wouldn't be wise.
You sent hitmen to kill my family.
Mm
Sit with me,
if only to avoid
such mistakes in the future.
I I don't bite.
Okay?
I have my own problems.
For instance, Jeronimo.
He attacks Nestor's stash houses
without my permission,
and then, he gets himself arrested.
Bad news for you?
Hmm, bad for Jeronimo.
But good for Nestor.
Which is why I'm here.
Because I don't have time
to groom a Colombian I trust
to retail our cocaine.
And again, I don't find a reason why
Nestor can't be part of our
little and beautiful family.
He wants you dead more than I do.
But he's a businessman.
In this profession,
violence is best avoided.
Look, Roman
I'll meet Nestor Cabal
at Haulover Beach at 6:00 p.m.
I'll bring four men. He brings four.
Then we can discuss
the terms together, okay?
And if you get this right
I don't know, maybe
Maybe I'll let you fuck me.
You'll like that?
[SIGHS SOFTLY]
[YOLANDA] Talk to your brother.
[FOOTSTEPS DEPART]
[ROMAN] She wants
to meet you this evening
to distribute her product.
There's no way we can
trust that desgracia.
I've never trusted anyone
in this business, brother.
Listen to me.
Have you considered that this deal makes
your family safer?
I have a better idea.
Accept this bullshit peace deal.
You meet her at Haulover Beach,
bring four men like she asked.
Right? There's a jetty at that inlet.
It's about 200, maybe 300 yards away
You're a first class marksman,
but a shot at that distance
is impossible.
I will fucking put her down.
And the minute she drops,
it becomes a bloodbath.
And I'll have more than one
round. [SPEAKS SPANISH]
But the only way we're safe
is when she's dead.
She sent hitmen to my house
to kill my family.
Okay.
But don't stop shooting
until they're all fucking dead.
Where's Valeria?
Oh, I don't know, honey. Inside?
[MR. LANDON] Miami is America's largest
port of entry for illegal narcotics.
We are the gateway for poisons
that have turned our streets
into a living nightmare.
But today, we're proud to honor
our Drug Enforcement Administration
for a major arrest and seizure.
Jeronimo Rojas,
a Colombian national,
was apprehended last night,
and is currently being held
at Miami Dade
Correctional Facility.
[JERONIMO, IN SPANISH]
[MR. LANDON] From him,
we'll get information
on the criminal
organizations responsible
for the emerging battle for
control of cocaine in Miami.
Now, a few words from the man
responsible for this heroic seizure,
Agent Dominic Zulio.
- [APPLAUSE]
- Good job.
Ladies and gentlemen,
thank you for being here this evening.
I wanna thank the congressman
for his kind words.
Uh, however, I do wanna
emphasize something.
We are watching
the beginning of a war
between rival cartels
hell bent on flooding
our shores with cocaine.
Innocent lives will be lost,
and mark my words,
blood will spill.
[MARISOL] Valeria!
Valeria!
[ZULIO] The arrest
of Jeronimo Rojas
puts all traffickers on notice.
We will come after you, your dealers,
your bankers,
and your corrupt politicians,
and we will lock you away.
