Diablo Verde
1 Let me ask you a question.
How long do you look at your cards before you tell me how many you want? I mean, I'm-I'm not trying to be an asshole.
I'm just asking.
- You got someplace to be? - No, no.
Chief, I'm-I'm here for you.
(SIGHS) But, you know, those cards aren't gonna change.
They're gonna stay the same till you tell me how many you want.
Just like to think things over, that's all.
- Good.
Good.
- To ruminate.
- (WILLIE LAUGHS) - (MICKEY SIGHS) Okay.
You ruminate, chief.
JENNIFER: I'm very good.
People make, like, hundreds of thousands of dollars from playing this.
(LAUGHING) You're so st You're so dumb.
JENNIFER: Nah.
This is, like, a competitive sport.
Oh, yeah.
Mm-hmm.
High IQ.
MICKEY: You ever overhear these people talk about dying? Like, they were dead for a minute or five minutes or whatever.
For every one of them, there's six others that have a wreck motorcycle or whatever (SIGHS) they're in a coma for a month or six months.
They wake up, they don't remember shit.
They just remember they cranked up their bike, next thing, nothing.
Just some nurse cleaning up their shit, poking them all over.
(HIGH-PITCHED): "Mr.
Smith, Mr.
Smith, "you're in the hospital.
"You had an accident.
Tell me how many fucking fingers I'm holding up.
" (CHUCKLES) - Give me two.
- You got it.
Two for the chief.
- One for the dealer.
- (POKER CHIPS CLINKING) Let's see.
Let's see what you got.
Three cowboys.
MICKEY: Jesus Christ.
You waited that long, and you're holding three kings? Fuck.
I got shit.
Anyway, it's obvious the brain runs the whole operation.
It's got a fucking switch, you know? Come to papa.
It's off, you're dead.
You don't exist anymore.
Some doctors go in and fool around a little bit, (POPS LIPS) you're back.
Mickey! Shut it! Hey, man, don't you get tired of hearing yourself talk about stuff that nobody's interested in? I'm tired of being the only smart guy in the room.
- All right? - Oh, God! Everywhere I go, nobody wants to listen.
Listen, are you gonna be a baby if I try to fuck the Chinese chick? Huh? - Shut up.
- What? Are you? Huh? Gonna make a difference if I am? - No.
- (CHUCKLES) But I want you on board, you know.
I want you supporting me, you know.
- Be nice.
- I don't give a shit.
That's the way it is, with the brain.
Once it's off, you're out.
No more.
No more Frankie and Susie, you know? Gone.
Hey, man, you're playing cards, right? Why don't you stick to talking about cards? As long as you got pussy and a cheeseburger, you're good, right, Willie? Yeah, man, I got mine.
Oh, I want a cheeseburger.
(GASPS) I want a cheeseburger! There's no cheeseburgers in Mexico.
I told you already.
- Go find - Stop that.
Stop that.
You're driving me nuts with that.
See what you did? (CLEARS THROAT) They won't let you take me to Applebee's.
- What? - They said you can't take me.
But then they said they don't even have Applebee's here.
Isn't that funny? - Who? - What? Who said that? Those people.
The-the people in the room.
(GROANS SOFTLY) Wait, wait.
Where are you going? I'm gonna go find out who the hell you are and what's going on.
WILLIE: Oh.
Oh, boy.
Oh, my goodness.
Look at that.
MICKEY: Yeah, always calm, you know.

That's it.
Guys, um, I must've been really shit-faced last night or something, 'cause I got no memory of how this deal went down.
So if you could fill me in, I'd appreciate it.
- One second.
One sec.
Go ahead.
- Geez.
- Hey, man.
- Fucking pay attention.
That-that Chinese girlfriend you had, did she go back to sleep? If you're talking about the girl back there, she ain't my girlfriend, no.
- What? - I got no fucking clue who she is.
So that's kind of what I'm getting at here, you know.
Oh, you had a clue last night, man.
You definitely did.
Yeah, well, I don't know about that.
Yeah.
What? Shut up.
I'm just kidding.
I'm kidding.

- Are they? Yeah.
Okay.
All right, then.
Read you loud and clear.
Mm-hmm.
Come on, guys.

Seriously, wh-what's going on? Is that an attitude that I heard just then? No, he just doesn't remember shit.
I think I heard a little attitude.
I-I Look, man, what kind of attitude would you have if you didn't know where the fuck you were? I frankly don't give a fuck.
You're gonna be here a while, so just dig yourself, make yourself comfortable.
Everybody's being very nice to you right now.

Take it easy.
WILLIE: Yeah, yeah, and stop asking questions.
MICKEY: So, that's 460, right? WILLIE: This-this guy here, Mickey, he'll answer all your questions, and you really don't want to hear that.
MICKEY: Hey, fuck off, Willie.
We're just playing cards, all right? MAN: Let's go another round, all right? MICKEY: All right.
Okay.
So, I had a had a phone on me and a pack of smokes.
You guys know anything about that? You shouldn't smoke.

I mean, you know as much as I do.
We were in a bar, and you were asking me for a ride to the border.
That's right.
But the guy that I was with, who brought me there, he just he got pissed off for some reason, he just left.
Oh, no, wait.
(CHUCKLES) You were not very nice to him.
And he said he was gonna kick your ass.
And then you said, "Oh, yeah? Well, I'm gonna cut - your fucking throat.
" - Shh.
You were really drunk.
I mean, really drunk.

I said you don't have to do that anymore, okay? - Oh, I'm sorry.
Okay.
Okay.
- Okay? So, what else? I don't know.

Then I went in there, and, uh, they weren't they weren't very talkative.
Except for the guy and the girl.

He wants me he wants me to give him a blow job.
Right in front of her he's saying that.
Right so creepy.
Pipe down.
(QUIETLY): Then one of them said Yeah, they said one of them said they're waiting for the word.
"So stop fucking asking me.
" I've got to ask you 'cause I got to figure this shit out, okay? Oh, no.
Not-not you.
One of them said, "So stop fucking asking me.
" Okay.
So, what word? I don't know.
(SIGHS) You know what, I don't like blowjobs so much.
I mean, I guess they're okay, but not really.
And cum smells like poppies.
No, no, no, not poppies.
Tulips.
Next time you're in a flower garden, smell the tulips.
Anything else? Nope, just tulips.
No, anything else about what they said in there? Don't know.

And you swear to God you don't know these people? You've never seen them in your life, right? No.
Excuse me? I don't Why would I? Do you know them? Uh, no.
It's just that you seem to remember a lot about what went on at the bar.

How about the rest of them, what are they doing? Um, bald guy's reading a magazine.
And the girl's just sitting there.

What happened? (STEADY BREATHING) (TRAIN WHISTLE BLOWS) (GASPS) Oh, great.
I didn't want to wake you up, but I'm glad you woke up, though.
- I heard something.
- What? I went in the hallway last night.
You were asleep, and I heard them talking, but it wasn't too loud, so I snuck in and I was against the wall, like, really flat like this.
And Mickey, he said, "Where are they dropping them off?" No, no, wait, I'm sorry.
The, um, wait.
It's the bald guy, the bald guy.
They still haven't said his name.
He said he got the call.
And then Mickey said that about, you know, "Where are they dropping them off?" Then the other guy said, "No, it's changed.
We're supposed to finish the deal.
" Then this morning, they-they, they started getting, like, really busy and-and-and taking things outside and they were coming in and out, and I saw Mickey.
He was talking to three guys in a black car because I saw through-through the door when they opened it just for a minute.
And then, um, I saw through that door that, uh, Mickey was loading some bags into a truck.
They were really busy, and-and they were kind of intense and-and arguing.
Mickey and the bald guy.
And they said, "When it gets dark" something.
- What? - I couldn't hear what (WILLIE CLEARS THROAT) Uh-huh.
What's up? Not much.
Too early to tell yet.
How 'bout you? (LAUGHS): Chinese chicks.
- So what do you - Close the door.
Quietly.
So what do you think? What do you think that means? Okay.
I want you to listen to me very carefully, all right? - Okay.
- All right.
In a little while, I want you to go in there, and I want you to sit down with him just like usual, all right? Okay.
You know, resist that creep and everything, but you know, be a little flirtatious - with him, you know.
- Okay, okay.
- Just keep flirting with him.
- Okay.
- Until I get in there.
- Okay.
- I'm gonna come in there.
- Yeah.
And I'm gonna ask the girl to make me some tea.
Okay.
- When she does, - Mm-hmm.
- And hopefully she will - Yeah.
look over at me.
- Okay.
- And if I give you the nod Uh-huh.
you tell him you want to see that dick thing of his, whatever it is, the curve or whatever.
- Okay Yeah.
- Got me? And then I want you to bring him back here.
- Here? - Bring him back yes.
- Bring him back here - In this, this room? - And get him on the bed.
- Okay.
Now, once you get his pants down Oh, no, I can't blow this guy.

(REPORTERS CLAMORING) There's nothing I can say right now.
(SIGHS) I wasn't prepared for any of this.
Did your dad get home okay? I was gonna ask you the same question.
He didn't come home with you? When he heard about Julio, he started drinking.
He felt very self-destructive and I couldn't help him.
He just took a bottle and left.
I don't know where he went.
I'm sure he's okay.
Just let me know if you hear anything from him.
Sure.
Thank you.
Well, hello.
Hi.
Did you speak to Senator Briggs about your new job? Yeah.
Good.
What's on your mind? These, um, past few weeks, it's it's like you've become a different person.
The meetings, the weird phone calls, - the guy with the hook.
- Well, Elena, you have to play the game to win.
Oh, I know you're gonna win.
There's no doubt.
But I know you're a fraud.
Look, I understand you're upset about being let go.
I spoke to your old elementary school teacher.
Mm.
In your hometown.
Sister Maria Isabella? The sister knew you by a different name.
Claudia Quintero.
- That name means nothing to me.
- Right.
Because Claudia Quintero doesn't exist in any public record.
It's like she's a ghost.
You're very nosy, Elena.
Do you want money? No.
So why are you doing this? Because I believed in you.
You were gonna do great things.
I am gonna do great things.
No.
Because you don't give a shit about your community.
How dare you say that to me.
Who are you? My name is Marisol Silva.
Now get the fuck out of my office.
What happened? I was fired.
Good luck.
(DOOR SLAMS) (PHONE BEEPS) Hey, Frankie.
Um, it's Denise again.
Sorry.

I'm sure he's upset about Julio.
- It's so sad.
That poor kid.
- Yeah.
Listen, I need you to go through all the incoming and outgoing numbers, and I want you to keep calling until you get someone.
- Okay? - Okay.
Whose phone is this? - That is Keith Roman's burner phone.
- Why do you have this? - Because I borrowed it.
- Because I borrowed it.
- Okay? - Borrowed? - That's right.
That's what I did.
- Okay.
So please do that.
What is on my desk? Oh.
Those are for Brittany.
- She has a secret admirer.
- Mm-hmm? I read the card.
Tom Wyatt.
How is it a secret if his name's on the card? - You know who that is, right? - Don't give a fuck.
- He's a billionaire.
- Get that shit off my desk.
Not too shabby.
(DOOR CLOSES) (CLOCK CHIMING) I'm sorry I'm such a bummer today.
Just (SIGHS) this whole thing about Julio.
You don't have to apologize.
I just can't believe he killed himself.
He was about to get out.
You never know what people are thinking.
I just keep thinking about how desperate he must've felt.
(SIGHS) 'Cause I've had those thoughts.
Like, I've wanted to do bad things to myself.
And-and I don't mean, like, abuse myself.
I mean, like end myself.
(SIGHS): Yeah.
I've felt that loneliness.

It was the one fucking thing I asked you.
I said, "Please don't screw it up with Marisol.
" I said please.
That was the one fucking thing, dude.
And you just pushed her away.
You fucking pushed her away, just like you push me away.
(SOBS) Just like you fucking push everyone away who cares about you.
PETE: Danny! Danny, Danny, Danny, Danny, Danny, Danny.
It appears as if you're trying to make a run for it.
Tom sent you.
Well, we were hoping it wouldn't come to this, Danny.
He sent you 'cause he's a fucking coward.
(LAUGHS) Well, that's the pot calling the kettle black.
Don't you think? And I debated, 'cause I was thinking of using "people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.
" I thought Fuck you.
Keith was my best friend.
Well, there's your problem right there.
You can't get emotionally attached to these people, Danny.
Stop fucking saying "Danny.

The rest of him on the sidewalk.
- What? - I know, right? It's messed up.
What was his name? Daniel Loomis.
He was a member here.
You know anything about him? Nah.
But he was a good tipper.
It's too bad it wasn't his friend who got killed.
That guy was such a prick.
Who was his friend? I don't know.
But he's outside on the bench.
Hey.
Uh, do you know a Roman? I'm so glad you asked.

MICKEY: You ever overhear these people talk about dying? Like, they were dead for a minute or five minutes or whatever.
For every one of them, there's six others that have a wreck motorcycle or whatever (SIGHS) they're in a coma for a month or six months.
They wake up, they don't remember shit.
They just remember they cranked up their bike, next thing, nothing.
Just some nurse cleaning up their shit, poking them all over.

It's got a fucking switch, you know? Come to papa.
It's off, you're dead.
You don't exist anymore.
Some doctors go in and fool around a little bit, (POPS LIPS) you're back.
Mickey! Shut it! Hey, man, don't you get tired of hearing yourself talk about stuff that nobody's interested in? I'm tired of being the only smart guy in the room.

WILLIE: Yeah, yeah, and stop asking questions.
MICKEY: So, that's 460, right? WILLIE: This-this guy here, Mickey, he'll answer all your questions, and you really don't want to hear that.
MICKEY: Hey, fuck off, Willie.
We're just playing cards, all right? MAN: Let's go another round, all right? MICKEY: All right.

You guys know anything about that? You shouldn't smoke.
It's bad for you health.
You should quit.

It's you.
MICKEY: That blows it for you.
MAN: What? I didn't do anything.

WILLIE: The Chinese chick.
Come on, what? JENNIFER: I don't give a shit.
I already told you.
So, what's your name, anyway? Janet.
I don't look like a Janet.
(CHUCKLES) What's your name? That's not important.
Start laughing.
- What? - Just start laughing.
Why? 'Cause we're having fun, just hanging out, okay? - Okay.
(LAUGHS LOUDLY) - Just do it.

(LAUGHS LOUDLY) No, no.
Okay, forget it.
Okay, I-I need you to tell me what happened and how we got here.
I don't know.
I mean, you know as much as I do.
We were in a bar, and you were asking me for a ride to the border.
That's right.
But the guy that I was with, who brought me there, he just he got pissed off for some reason, he just left.
Oh, no, wait.
(CHUCKLES) You were not very nice to him.
And he said he was gonna kick your ass.
And then you said, "Oh, yeah? Well, I'm gonna cut - your fucking throat.
" - Shh.
You were really drunk.
I mean, really drunk.
- Yeah, okay.

I said you don't have to do that anymore, okay? - Oh, I'm sorry.
Okay.
Okay.
- Okay? So, what else? I don't know.

Pipe down.
(QUIETLY): Then one of them said Yeah, they said one of them said they're waiting for the word.
"So stop fucking asking me.
" I've got to ask you 'cause I got to figure this shit out, okay? Oh, no.
Not-not you.
One of them said, "So stop fucking asking me.
" Okay.
So, what word? I don't know.
(SIGHS) You know what, I don't like blowjobs so much.
I mean, I guess they're okay, but not really.
And cum smells like poppies.
No, no, no, not poppies.
Tulips.
Next time you're in a flower garden, smell the tulips.
Anything else? Nope, just tulips.
No, anything else about what they said in there? Don't know.
I-I don't They just sit around playing cards and argue about stuff.
And you swear to God you don't know these people? You've never seen them in your life, right? No.
Excuse me? I don't Why would I? Do you know them? Uh, no.
It's just that you seem to remember a lot about what went on at the bar.
I don't remember a fucking thing.

Just enough to keep him semi-interested.
All right? What? Why? Why? - (GROANS SOFTLY) - Trust me.
(SIGHS) Okay.
How about the rest of them, what are they doing? Um, bald guy's reading a magazine.
And the girl's just sitting there.
I think she's playing a game on her phone.

I did hear some snoring in the other room, though, so I guess that's him.
Yeah.
Did you hear any more details about what they're up to? No.
Nobody's talking.
You should get some sleep, okay? You may need it.

I didn't want to wake you up, but I'm glad you woke up, though.
- I heard something.
- What? I went in the hallway last night.
You were asleep, and I heard them talking, but it wasn't too loud, so I snuck in and I was against the wall, like, really flat like this.
And Mickey, he said, "Where are they dropping them off?" No, no, wait, I'm sorry.
The, um, wait.
It's the bald guy, the bald guy.
They still haven't said his name.
He said he got the call.
And then Mickey said that about, you know, "Where are they dropping them off?" Then the other guy said, "No, it's changed.
We're supposed to finish the deal.
" Then this morning, they-they, they started getting, like, really busy and-and-and taking things outside and they were coming in and out, and I saw Mickey.
He was talking to three guys in a black car because I saw through-through the door when they opened it just for a minute.
And then, um, I saw through that door that, uh, Mickey was loading some bags into a truck.
They were really busy, and-and they were kind of intense and-and arguing.
Mickey and the bald guy.
And they said, "When it gets dark" something.
- What? - I couldn't hear what (WILLIE CLEARS THROAT) Uh-huh.
What's up? Not much.
Too early to tell yet.
How 'bout you? (LAUGHS): Chinese chicks.
- So what do you - Close the door.
Quietly.
So what do you think? What do you think that means? Okay.
I want you to listen to me very carefully, all right? - Okay.
- All right.
In a little while, I want you to go in there, and I want you to sit down with him just like usual, all right? Okay.
You know, resist that creep and everything, but you know, be a little flirtatious - with him, you know.
- Okay, okay.
- Just keep flirting with him.
- Okay.
- Until I get in there.

- Okay Yeah.
- Got me? And then I want you to bring him back here.
- Here? - Bring him back yes.
- Bring him back here - In this, this room? - And get him on the bed.
- Okay.
Now, once you get his pants down Oh, no, I can't blow this guy.
Hey, listen to me, goddamn it.
Listen to me.
Do you want to fucking die, or you want to blow that creep? - No, okay-okay.
- Huh? I'd blow him myself, but I don't think he'd be interested.
Okay, okay.
I got it.
Okay.
So anyway, you get him relaxed, you fuck around with him and everything.
When you get him all readied up and he's all into it and all this kind of thing, right under that blanket wedged in the mattress right there, there's a knife, okay? A long knife.

(REPORTERS CLAMORING) There's nothing I can say right now.
(SIGHS) I wasn't prepared for any of this.
Did your dad get home okay? I was gonna ask you the same question.
He didn't come home with you? When he heard about Julio, he started drinking.
He felt very self-destructive and I couldn't help him.
He just took a bottle and left.
I don't know where he went.
I'm sure he's okay.
Just let me know if you hear anything from him.
Sure.
Thank you.
Well, hello.
Hi.
Did you speak to Senator Briggs about your new job? Yeah.
Good.
What's on your mind? These, um, past few weeks, it's it's like you've become a different person.
The meetings, the weird phone calls, - the guy with the hook.
- Well, Elena, you have to play the game to win.
Oh, I know you're gonna win.
There's no doubt.
But I know you're a fraud.
Look, I understand you're upset about being let go.
I spoke to your old elementary school teacher.
Mm.
In your hometown.
Sister Maria Isabella? The sister knew you by a different name.
Claudia Quintero.
- That name means nothing to me.
- Right.
Because Claudia Quintero doesn't exist in any public record.
It's like she's a ghost.
You're very nosy, Elena.
Do you want money? No.
So why are you doing this? Because I believed in you.
You were gonna do great things.
I am gonna do great things.
No.
Because you don't give a shit about your community.
How dare you say that to me.
Who are you? My name is Marisol Silva.
Now get the fuck out of my office.
What happened? I was fired.
Good luck.
(DOOR SLAMS) (PHONE BEEPS) Hey, Frankie.
Um, it's Denise again.
Sorry.
I just Are you sure you haven't seen my dad at the bar? Hey.
- Hey.
- Did you hear from Billy yet? No.
Yeah, he's not answering his phone.
I'm sure he's upset about Julio.
- It's so sad.
That poor kid.
- Yeah.
Listen, I need you to go through all the incoming and outgoing numbers, and I want you to keep calling until you get someone.
- Okay? - Okay.
Whose phone is this? - That is Keith Roman's burner phone.
- Why do you have this? - Because I borrowed it.
- Because I borrowed it.
- Okay? - Borrowed? - That's right.
That's what I did.
- Okay.
So please do that.
What is on my desk? Oh.
Those are for Brittany.
- She has a secret admirer.
- Mm-hmm? I read the card.
Tom Wyatt.
How is it a secret if his name's on the card? - You know who that is, right? - Don't give a fuck.
- He's a billionaire.
- Get that shit off my desk.
Not too shabby.
(DOOR CLOSES) (CLOCK CHIMING) I'm sorry I'm such a bummer today.
Just (SIGHS) this whole thing about Julio.
You don't have to apologize.
I just can't believe he killed himself.
He was about to get out.
You never know what people are thinking.
I just keep thinking about how desperate he must've felt.
(SIGHS) 'Cause I've had those thoughts.
Like, I've wanted to do bad things to myself.
And-and I don't mean, like, abuse myself.
I mean, like end myself.
(SIGHS): Yeah.
I've felt that loneliness.
(SOFT CRYING) (SNIFFLES) (CRYING) Hey.

So, uh, just give me a call back.

It was the one fucking thing I asked you.
I said, "Please don't screw it up with Marisol.
" I said please.
That was the one fucking thing, dude.
And you just pushed her away.
You fucking pushed her away, just like you push me away.
(SOBS) Just like you fucking push everyone away who cares about you.
PETE: Danny! Danny, Danny, Danny, Danny, Danny, Danny.
It appears as if you're trying to make a run for it.
Tom sent you.
Well, we were hoping it wouldn't come to this, Danny.
He sent you 'cause he's a fucking coward.
(LAUGHS) Well, that's the pot calling the kettle black.
Don't you think? And I debated, 'cause I was thinking of using "people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.
" I thought Fuck you.
Keith was my best friend.
Well, there's your problem right there.
You can't get emotionally attached to these people, Danny.
Stop fucking saying "Danny.
" Sorry Daniel.
I'm just, uh just gonna miss you.

Looks like he ate every meal behind the wheel.
It still smells better than your car.
- Fuck you.

(CHUCKLES) I-I'm just so happy that somebody finally answered.
Who is this? Yeah, they found his ear in the swimming pool.
The rest of him on the sidewalk.
- What? - I know, right? It's messed up.
What was his name? Daniel Loomis.
He was a member here.
You know anything about him? Nah.
But he was a good tipper.
It's too bad it wasn't his friend who got killed.
That guy was such a prick.
Who was his friend? I don't know.
But he's outside on the bench.
Hey.
Uh, do you know a Roman? I'm so glad you asked.
I know many Romans and Greeks and Turks, and Genghis fucking Khan was my best fucking friend.
