Echo 3 (2022) s01e08 Episode Script

1
Who is it?
It's your brother.
Look, I left this shitty place.
And I have worked hard to make my music.
To be an artist, to have
nothing to do with you.
And then two fucking
psychopaths come out of nowhere.
They kidnap me, drug me, and torture me.
All because of you, asshole.
You didn't do shit!
I sent some people
but they were killed.
And if I said you were a fucking traitor
it was to protect your ass.
What did you want me to say?
That you're my little brother?
That I love you?
Hmm?
They would've killed
you like an asshole.
You don't love anyone.
If that's what you think
why are you here?
Hmm?
I came here so we could
talk like civilized people.
Like grown-ups.
Talk.
Let the American woman go.
Her family told me that she's innocent.
You have the power.
Release her, forget about her.
Those guys are rats.
They're fucking killers.
But what would you know? Hmm?
For 10 years you've been
living the good life.
Hmm?
Traveling.
Chasing ass.
Playing your music.
They electrocuted my balls.
You think I did that to you?
Do you think I did that to you?
Can you or can't you do something?
Nice road for a sports car.
Where are we?
No.
Now, which one is you? Which one?
I told you who the fuck I am!
Snow ball!
Lay down! You stay the fuck down!
Shut up!
Shut your mouth!
Stop!
Mom!
You're gonna fucking learn!
Fucking listen to me.
Do it.
Hey.
I'm bad. I'm bad.
I'm so bad.
You're not bad.
You're Bambi.
Yeah. Let him in.
- Hola.
- Hey, man.
You ready to make some money?
I don't know, man.
Are you sure it's okay?
It's all good.
Come meet some of my friends.
Come on.
Okay.
You're safe here, bro.
- Are you sure?
- Yeah. I'm gonna look after you.
Don't you worry.
A mosquito.
Only the female bites.
You know, she is the leading
cause of death in human history?
More so than any other cause.
Malaria. Zika. West Nile.
Yellow Fever. Dengue.
Mind your head.
You admire it.
I do. Yeah.
Some people think she may
have killed the dinosaurs.
This is Javi. He knows the
place better than anyone.
And he's one of us now.
You've s seen this video?
You gotta watch it,
man. You gotta see this.
Hey, Javi. Mucho gusto.
She's the undisputed killer of man.
The destroyer of worlds.
She's fed on both saints, emperors.
Young, old. Black, white. Male, female.
She doesn't discriminate.
It's all for blood.
She's lost it. She's not well, man.
It's all for survival.
Yeah. Well, it doesn't even
sound like her, brother.
- She's traumatized.
- Listen
This is the beginning of
serious mental illness, dude.
Yeah. We got a bigger problem.
Tell him what you told me. It's okay.
Uh, t There is a rumor in the prison,
uh, that Amber is going to be executed.
Tariq wants revenge for
what you did to his brother.
I They don't want
you coming to rescue her.
When?
I don't know, man. Maybe in a few days.
Tomás doesn't want to
to do it, but eventually,
it would happen, you know.
Is it only Tariq?
Anybody else have the authority
to order her execution?
He's the boss, man.
I'll call Mitch.
I'll handle it.
Gracias, Javi.
Gracias, amigo.
Okay, Amber.
Third time is the charm, hmm?
Is it because of Hildy?
- Yeah.
- Hmm?
Is that why you're not cooperating?
Why then, Amber?
Because you drugged me with
the wrong compound, Tommy.
Uh
Some kind of hallucinogen.
I've just been having
these really vivid daydreams
of you being blown to pieces.
See, this drug, whatever it is,
it doesn't make me afraid of you.
Okay.
Today is Monday, Amber.
This here, this day is Saturday.
It's a national holiday and
it's also the day I was told
I'm supposed to kill you.
I don't want to kill
you, but I will. Saturday.
This is the day that
you're going to die.
Please nod if you understand.
I'll take that as a "yes".
- Hi. Your name, please?
- I'm not on the list.
I'm here to see Eric Haas II. I'm
his in-law. This is an emergency.
I'm sorry, ma'am. I can't help you.
Maggie Chesborough. He'll know.
Ray?
Ma'am, is there a problem?
You want me to make a scene?
Okay, I'll make a scene.
Eric Haas, get down here.
- Ma'am, I work for Mr. Haas.
- Hmm?
- He's not here right now. Can I help you?
- I doubt it.
- Mr. Haas?
- Ma'am?
Turn around and wait for me
at the bottom of the stairs
or I'm gonna call the Sheriff.
Please, ma'am.
Go on. It'll be okay.
Hi, boss. Yeah, she's right here.
Well, this is a pleasant surprise.
Are Are you really not here?
I flew back from Colombia and
drove all the way here to see you.
I'm I'm here now, Maggie.
Okay. The boys are
in trouble down there.
They've turned into criminals,
kidnapping people in broad daylight.
No, that's that's that's insane.
Your man, Roy, is dead.
Uh, Maggie, have you
been taking your pills?
You don't believe me? Call your son.
They're off the rails.
They are on the warpath.
There's nothing I can do if he
wants to throw away his life.
I told him to stay home and
let the professionals go,
and he said, "Fuck off, old man."
You know, our obligations
to our children
do not end when they're unkind to us.
They need a force multiplier.
Oh a force multiplier.
I-I-I didn't know you were such
an expert on military strategy.
Every grandfather, every father,
every single blessed
son in my family tree
has served in the United States military
since the days of Robert E. Lee.
And before that, my
blood fought the Apaches.
So, damn right, I know something
about military strategy.
Send help.
Protect your kin.
Any ideas?
Amber, it's Thursday.
In 48 hours
I'm going to have to kill you. Hmm?
We're wasting the last
of our precious time.
And I have to go to Caracas,
and I I have to give a report.
This is the time to move.
Amber?
El Dorado.
Qué?
El Dorado.
Dorado?
Take her off the program.
We are wasting medicine.
Are we falling asleep or what?
Whoo-hoo! This party is
getting a little bit boring,
don't you think? Shall we
make it more interesting?
Shall I jump in this
fucking freezing water?
Jump!
Fuck it. Let's jump! Here I go!
Should I do it?
What are you doing up here?
Are you suicidal?
Save me.
Oh, fuck.
That wasn't funny. Sorry.
Cool watch. Did your
daddy buy that for you?
You know, you're, like, the only
girl at this party who's not rich.
And I bet you got a
daddy with a shotgun too
- somewhere in Tennessee.
- Georgia.
No daddy. But I got a brother who
knows his way around a crossbow.
Primitive. I like it.
Actually, you should meet him.
Why? So he can kick my ass?
No, 'cause I can tell
you've got a problem
with finding meaning in your life.
He deals with guys like you all
the time. You know, lost souls.
Is he a therapist?
Special Forces.
Mmm.
Wow.
- You weren't kidding, huh?
- Come on.
This is legit redneck.
- Hey.
- Hey.
- Shut up.
- Hey, man.
- Sorry, man.
- Just give me your fucking hand.
Anyone who's good with my
sister, is good with me.
Why don't you take a go?
Now, the biggest thing
when you're holding a knife
and there's blood and slippery,
is you make sure you cut the
fucking deer and not your fingers.
Cut down here. You'll
feel where the hardness is,
- you'll end up with a nice loin.
- You can feel it?
Hey!
Bambi?
Is that you?
Hey, Bug. It's me.
How'd you get in here?
That's what I do, kiddo.
Why do you look so down? Huh?
A little deprivation is no big deal.
No food?
When we hit Tora Bora to hunt
bin Laden, we had to choose.
Carry bullets or carry food.
I lost 36 pounds in two weeks.
It's just mental.
It's just mental.
This isn't real. It's a hallucination.
Well, the good thing
is nobody can kill me.
Bambi?
Welcome to my home away from home.
Yeah. What's up?
Bambi wanted me to talk
to you about the exfil.
Is this the condition?
- Tell your guys it'll make them safer.
- Is that true?
It's true that, if
you wear those patches
and present as Colombian military,
I can get you out.
Bambi agreed to this?
Mm-hmm. You're the last domino.
Fuck me.
You're turning this into a
false flag operation, huh?
You're using us to create
instability on the border.
I am not doing anything at all.
You asked for an exfil, all right?
That takes dedicated
resources. Backside support.
I have to get up on Colombia's
comms. Reposition satellites.
Peacetime, that's a no.
Everyone's constipated.
State of emergency, things get looser.
Now, give me a little war
the juices start to flow.
You're right.
It's just straight.
Gentlemen!
Everyone down quickly,
I don't want anyone
sleeping. We don't have time.
You Tiburon?
- Sí, señor.
- Mucho gusto.
What have you been told?
Just you are the boss.
Good.
We're good.
Raise your hand if you speak English.
Okay, that's good.
So, first things first.
Nobody, not even your family,
should know you're
involved in this, okay?
You all need to think long
and hard about the money.
When we get Amber,
there's gonna be a bonus on
top of your initial salary.
If that's your only motivation,
then y'all need to reconsider.
Because we may ask you to do
something for which there is no price.
We value civilian lives.
But make no mistake, we're bringing
my wife home no matter what.
He and I, we're here for family.
We're here to save an innocent woman.
A daughter, a wife and a sister.
You should be here for honor, for glory.
Doing something fucking
meaningful with your life.
Now, that may sound
cheesy to some of you.
We don't really give a shit.
If it does, you can leave
right now. No hard feelings.
They're fighting to save their family.
We need to be here for honor.
If you're not, leave.
- Understood?
- Understood.
Good.
We've labeled the buildings 1 through 8.
As you can see, the place is huge.
My team, Alpha, will come in on
the north side with building 0-7.
We'll clear that. Set an overwatch.
I'm taking Bravo team across
to the west side of the lake.
Oso, you're leading Charlie
team coming in on the south side
near guard tower 2.
You set your overwatch on
the roof of building 0-4.
Tiburon, you'll take Delta team
on the east side and
cover the main gate.
Once all teams are in their
set points, we'll start at 0-1,
which Javi has confirmed
connects to the prison, 0-2.
There's maybe 200 families
living and working there.
The Narcos keep watch
over every single one.
It's a self sustainable city.
No one is allowed to leave.
Wait a sec, you said 200 families?
At least 200.
How do we find her with
so many people there?
Especially at night.
We're gonna be using
these ultra quiet drones.
Prototype, next-generation technology.
Now, the drones cannot locate Amber,
but they can distinguish
friend from foe.
They have the ability
to detect firearms.
So if this person here
or here had a firearm,
they'd be blinking red, not blue.
There are two bad things that
can happen on this mission.
Number one, we get compromised.
The other bad thing can
happen is we can't find her.
When we go in, we will use stealth.
We will use surprise.
And any chance of discovery needs
to be dealt with immediately.
Because there is no
way we can safely search
thousands of square
feet of interior space
within our mission parameters.
We cannot get into a prolonged
gunfight with them, or we will lose.
The good news is,
we know where she is.
She's gonna be where she always is,
in building 0-2, or the cocaine lab.
And we have that on good authority
from our human intelligence.
He's gonna become your new best friend.
She's kept in the prison every night.
Bravo team is going
to search building 0-1.
We expect them to encounter an
accountant who may be working late.
He will be subdued quietly,
and then they will proceed
to search building 0-2,
the first and the second floor,
where they will locate Amber.
At which point the teams
will begin to withdraw.
Bravo team will retrace its steps.
Overwatch positions go back
to where they started from,
and we pull out without
anybody being the wiser.
Now, it is very important
that we preserve these
overwatch positions.
Because if we lose
them, we cannot search.
Now, we're gonna put on these
uniforms and Colombian tags.
From now on, this is a
Colombian military op.
'Cause we believe they will fold faster
if they think that we're Colombian army.
Now, I want you to say it in Spanish.
We are Colombian Military.
Exactly. Say it.
We are Colombian Military.
We gotta move fast though.
We only have 48 minutes to do this job.
At this point,
they will get their chance to
call the VZ military for support.
If anybody gets jammed up, the
mission continues. We wait for nobody.
Check your gear. Study your
maps. Learn the layout cold.
We launch tonight.
You know that we are
100% in the business.
I think the important thing
that we bring to the
table now, with us here,
is our connections with the most
important people in Venezuela.
That bullshit of bourgeois connections,
hanging out with the
elite, the powerful,
that was in the past.
Yes, that is true.
We are the elite now.
Let's speak clearly here.
Are you or are you not
with the government?
Is there or isn't there
money for the government?
I'm gonna tell you
again, for the third time
- we are 100% in it.
- Wow. Wow.
Revolution, yes or no?
Yes, all the way!
Three hours going in circles with this.
The final strike.
Please, speaking about the final strike,
I can't with the topic of bullfights.
It's become a religion for my husband.
The bullfights are better than religion.
What do you think,
Tariq? Does it offend you?
- Offend me?
- Huh?
I don't know a thing about bullfighting.
You have to come to
the bullfights with me.
Bullfighting to me is too violent.
I may have thousands of defects
but I'm not violent, no.
Never.
You don't like violence?
Is that right, Momo?
He doesn't like violence?
- I've never liked violence.
- No?
Does blood scare you, Tariq?
You're being funny.
Are you scared of the
bull's blood, the horns?
He's being funny.
- This guy's an animal!
- Huh? Huh?
You're being funny.
Come on, what's wrong?
What's wrong with you?
Calm down. Look, he's not violent.
Sit down.
I apologize.
People around here
forget who is the boss.
Hmm?
Well, cheers!
Long live the revolution.
For good and new things to come.
Nothing like doing
business with friends.
Cheers to all the good things ahead.
I'm really happy to
have you back, brother.
My apologies about
what happened up there.
But that idiot got stupid.
That's normal.
Brothers fight.
We always fight for bullshit
reasons. Even us, too.
- Yes, but you always start.
- All right then.
That may be, but who saves your ass?
Me.
Huh?
Tariq.
- Yeah.
- It's done. You go tonight.
Tariq is off the board.
Good.
We should be offering
these guys more money.
Nah, it was enough.
For what we're asking them to do?
Unfortunately, life is cheap down here.
The money we gave them, we can have
them for a month of gunslinging.
We're only asking for one night.
Can I ask you a question
I never asked before?
Sure.
Why'd you join?
- What?
- I mean, you got all that money.
Do what the fuck you want.
Why did you want to fuck
around with us in the military?
You know the answer to that.
No. Actually, I don't.
What?
It was because of you.
I looked up to you.
Why?
Fuck, man. I need to tell you something.
I didn't really fuck up with Drifter
the way you think I did.
So, you're saying Drifter
was in a survivable state?
Maybe.
I don't think so.
But ultimately it didn't matter,
because I had to choose
about getting him or
or pulling you off the mountain.
This has been eating me alive, man.
And filling me with a
coldness towards you.
You know, I don't understand.
Why couldn't you get us both?
Drifter was on the south side.
If I ran to him, I wasn't
able to double back and get you
because the Taliban were
maneuvering on our flank.
- Yeah.
- And they would've pinned me with Drifter.
And once I was in his position,
the only way off that
mountain was the south side,
which would have meant
leaving you behind.
You could've come for me, and then
we could've gotten Drifter together.
No.
There was no time.
I've been doing this
for 20 years, you know.
Deployed 14 times.
Eight confirmed kills. I've been
given every award you can think of.
And I'm telling you,
as God is my witness,
one of you guys would
have died that day.
No fucking doubt about it.
Shit, man. I don't know
what to say. I, uh
I love you, man.
I loved Drifter.
I guess I wish you would have saved him.
He had two kids, you know.
He comes home. Yes or no?
Yeah.
Sometimes I wish I would
have saved Drifter too.
- Good luck. See you there.
- Gracias.
