Eidolon

Previously on The Bridge If you want, we could get a new dress.
I could give you my thoughts, help you look good.
I don't need a new dress.
Whatever.
- What the hell is that? - Exactly.
Yovani was inappropriate.
So you kill him? Yeah.
I want Eleanor Nacht.
She has the road map to every single one of Fausto's money operations.
I think we can help each other.
Not a word to Marco Ruiz.
He's not to be trusted.
He sends a hit man for me, Adriana, Frye.
None for you.
Fausto's smart and ruthless.
He will strike back.
You taking the necessary steps? Protect your family? What's up with the gardener? This is Jaime.
He's going to do some cleanup work for me.
It's over, Ms.
Nacht.
Hey.
That's, uh, two for five dollars.
I want only this one.
Okay.
That's, uh $3.
25.
Uh, uh, two's a better deal.
You could try the, uh, Screaming Peach.
No.
I want just this one.
I have work to do.
Sorry.
Uh, you have something, um on your, uh Uh, tissue? I prefer Wet-Naps.
Wet-Naps are awesome.
Go talk to that courier? Yes.
Turn right here.
Keep going.
Stop here.
Why did you look at my ledger? You left it.
You never leave it.
It's private.
Does Fausto Galvan know what's in that book? Yes.
I clean up Fausto's messes.
That is my job.
What we saw at the bank today was a mess.
Mm.
I anticipate problems.
That's what's in here.
Do you think I'm stupid? I'm not stupid.
You're skimming a little.
Moving a decimal point from here to there.
It's cool, but you have to do something for me.
What? I want to see what you got going on underneath that dress.
You keep your shit all covered up.
I know there's fire, guerita.
Son of a bitch.
Pardon me.
Not good.
DEA knew.
The Millwright woman was compromised.
Least the deal got done.
We got to get you fixed up.
All right, friends, cleanup time! Let's get you out of here.
My ledger is in here.
There was another cop.
Body's not here.
Hank Wade.
I think he slipped out.
I need that ledger.
Find him.
Sí, señora.
And have your man start moving cars, getting bodies into a truck.
Where are we going? I have a place.
We can all meet back there.
Can't have him getting lost.
Come over here.
Got you some food.
Your fridge is empty.
It's just me.
I don't like wasting food.
Well, after everything you've been through, you need to eat, rest.
I'm not hungry, Marco.
We don't have time to rest.
We're starting now.
Right.
Okay.
Made a few calls to Mexico City, prosecutor friend from Juárez.
What good's another lawyer gonna do? Fausto's very powerful on both sides of the border.
So we need help on both ends, too.
Who can we trust on your side? Agent McKenzie says he has a plan to grab Eleanor.
How? I don't know.
He says he has someone on the inside.
Okay, they grab Eleanor.
And then what? He gets Fausto.
Yeah, and then Fausto gets a deal.
Right? No, no, no, he needs to pay for everything he's done to you and my city.
Thank you.
For what? For saving me.
Come on.
I'm bleeding in your car.
No worries.
It's leather.
It'll clean up fine.
Just don't die in the car.
That's bad luck.
I have to make contingencies, in case they find the ledger.
That would be bad.
What exactly is in there? My work.
Well, we can't have that out there.
If I die If the light takes me back, I need you to burn me.
Hide me from the demons.
You're not gonna die, Eleanor.
I got a good doctor coming.
But if I do.
Take my ashes home.
There's a tree an oak tree in the desert.
Will you bury me under it? Okeydokey.
Well, there you are.
Hank was looking for you.
Hey, hey, what happened to your face? It's nothing.
Nothing? Where is he? DEA came in this morning.
They were looking for you.
What'd they want? I don't know.
But Hank left with them.
He didn't say where.
What? What is it? We got to go.
What's going on? Hey! Hey! This is Cross.
All available units.
Red Ridge View development, unit 94.
Get here right away.
We're going in.
Someone got out.
Someone came around here.
Then crossed this fence.
And then he's gone.
Somebody caught up to him.
Shit.
Why are you doing this? I need the ledger.
What ledger? Hey, vaquero, what's she got on you? You got kids? Look, I'll make you a deal.
I'll leave you right here.
I'll have to tell her that you died.
The cops will probably pick you up.
Just tell me where the ledger is.
What ledger? - Someone took him.
- We searched the whole development.
He's gone.
You were right.
The war is here.
This is two years' worth of murders in El Paso.
Yeah.
But no bodies.
You okay? Listen, Hank's tough.
I'm sure he's still alive.
I was supposed to be here.
And you weren't, because a hit man dragged you across the border.
That's not a coincidence.
The DEA knew that Eleanor was back in El Paso.
Yeah, but Eleanor wouldn't use machine guns.
You know what I mean? She uses muscle.
She's not a sicario.
She's a cerebro.
Somebody else was here, too.
Hi, guys.
Hi, everyone.
Oh, look.
There's my old desk.
Daniel, you're not even supposed to be here.
Didn't Cuevas put a restraining order on you? That's a pussy move.
Anyone want to call the cops? You guys? Go ahead, call them.
- Have you been going to meetings? - No.
Are you still my partner? It's kind of hard to be when you're not working for the paper.
I'm not talking about the paper.
I'm talking about you, me and the story.
What are you really asking me? - Do you have something new? - Yes.
Red Ridge.
Shooting.
It's big.
It's not about the El Paso Times.
It's about us.
And I need to know if you're in or out.
I'm in.
- Doc? - Yeah.
What happened? Riding accident.
Yeah, I'll buy that.
Okay, let's get her inside before she bleeds out.
How is it? It's through and through.
She lost a lot of blood.
Doesn't seem to be organ damage.
She'll live.
Too bad for her.
You'll wire the money into my account? Throw in a pair of custom boots if you keep her from dying.
- Should I even ask who this is? - Nope.
I don't know why I ask that shit anymore.
Gross! Mom! What is it, honey? He stuck his fat finger in my ear! Sir? We need you to step out of the vehicle.
Now, sir.
Holy shit.
There you are.
Welcome back.
Where am I? You're on Earth.
You're gonna have to watch for infection.
Very interesting tattoos you have there, miss.
Very disturbing.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey! Easy, easy.
Ooh.
Don't touch me.
All right, no touching.
Got it.
You're gonna have to take it easy.
- You lost a lot of blood.
You got to - I'm fine! Doc? You got to be shitting me.
This is gonna cost you.
I know you could use it.
Mind if I have a look-see here, Officer? Why did you bring him back here? - He had the ledger.
- Where is it? I don't know.
He hid it.
I had to get out of there.
The policía was coming.
Can you fix him? I need to talk to him.
Eleanor, I don't know if this is a good idea.
He is the law.
I don't care about your ideas, Mr.
Flagman.
Okay, Doc? - I'll see what I can do.
- No.
You have to do better than that.
Hey, hey, hey.
I'm glad that you're feeling better, ma'am, I really am, but back up a little bit.
This isn't a goddamn teaching hospital.
Well? He got it a lot worse than you did.
- Will he die? - Oh, probably.
See if I can stabilize him.
Any word from Jaime? - He'll be here.
- How long does it take to dump bodies? I can't be here when he wakes up.
Why not? I'm just the facilitator.
You know that.
Do you have a way for us to get back to Juárez? Let me work on that.
Good luck, Miss Nacht.
Hank's not here.
Any idea how she'd be caught up in this? She tried to tell me once.
Didn't want to know, I told her.
I just didn't believe she was in real danger.
You know, just Driver seems off.
- Not sure he speaks English.
- Where is he? Hey.
Jaime, right? You help Eleanor sometimes with jobs? That candy in the house was that yours? Yeah? Do you know where she is now? Do you know where you're supposed to go next? Come on, we got narco in El Paso.
You got blood on the sidewalk.
How many bodies you got inside? You two can't be here.
That's the last time - I'm gonna tell you.
- Come on, Coop.
Give us something, man.
I'm gonna give you a boot in your ass if you don't get off my crime scene.
Ain't it happy hour somewhere? Who's that guy? It's an agency, right? Yeah, but it's not local and not DEA.
CIA? That dude is plugged in.
So we follow him? Hell, yes, we follow him.
Come on, go, go, go, go.
Okay.
He's not gonna die, either.
I'm out of here.
Wake him up.
I can't do that.
It will kill him.
Eventually.
- I think we're splitting hairs here.
- Do it! Now.
Okay.
I know you're all eager to chat with him and everything, but I'm telling you, lady, this You talk too much! Put this in him, or I'll put it in you.
Your choice.
Do it.
Okay, okay, okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Wake up.
Wake up! You have something of mine.
Where is it? Go to hell.
We're already there.
Where's my ledger? Where's my ledger?! Available units responding, Creighton Power and Gas.
Copy.
We'll be first on scene.
What do you think happened at that house? Some of those bodies in the truck they were Fausto's men.
How do you know? I know.
Tell me exactly what the DEA told you was happening at this meeting.
Joe said Red Ridge was part of Fausto's laundering operation.
He thought the CIA knew, too.
She betrayed him.
Eleanor betrayed Fausto.
For Sebastian.
And Fausto hit back.
What do we know? - Shit.
- No shit.
Copy on the no shit.
Were you aware of this meeting? This sale? Whatever it was? I was.
Didn't anticipate the DEA wrinkle.
How about narco gunmen murdering Americans on U.
S.
soil? Truckloads of bodies in parking lots? Yeah, my crystal ball broke last Tuesday, Carla.
Tell me if I have this right.
And keep in mind, I'm very close to ending your career.
In a diner with horseshoes on the walls.
- Go ahead.
- The DEA gets kicked out of Mexico.
You increase your activities.
One month later, I have an actual blood house in El Paso.
You imply causality where there is none, ma'am.
A butterfly takes a dump in Milwaukee.
We lose control of Juárez.
That's your theory? I thought we were here to discuss the, uh, management options in the wake of Fausto's fall.
He hasn't fallen yet.
- He will.
- You keep saying that.
The net is far and wide.
Who's your man to replace Galvan? These four lieutenants in Galvan's organization.
They've each abandoned him in the last 72 hours.
Take your pick.
They're killers, they're smart, they can be what you want them to be.
I think your best bet is Sentenza.
The most controllable.
You said the same about Fausto.
- I was young then.
- Not that young.
This Sentenza's your man then? Put a gun to my head, yeah.
He's got his quirks, but then we all do.
Fine.
Make it happen then.
Fix it.
Shit just got legit.
You know who that is? No.
Neither do I, but she looks like a boss.
Who's that guy she was talking to? I'm betting that's the guy who knows everything.
I'll take the waffles.
Dry.
Pretty.
I hear the doctor leaving.
Monte trusts him.
Let him go.
Just kill me now.
I ain't gonna tell you.
We both know that.
Get me his wallet.
We will go to his house and torture his wife.
Put him in the car.
Goddamn you.
You don't have to do this.
Miss Eleanor, listen, we need to leave.
We can't go to his house it's too dangerous.
Do you love your children, Cesar? What do you think? Put him in the car.
One driver.
It's her.
Hold on.
Stop.
Stop.
I said stop.
Get down on the ground.
