The Cleaning Lady (2022) s02e12 Episode Script

Previously on "The Cleaning Lady"
I'm willing to help you.
Are you okay?
Robert!
They said you had a cardiac arrest.
Get them to run the test again,
check everything.
Kamdar brought us to Maya.
He said he knew she was a rat.
And that if I didn't shoot
her, he would've killed Thony.
Kamdar's backing
one of the biggest
human-trafficking rings
on the west coast
Drugs, prostitution.
We take him down, we can dismantle
half a dozen syndicates in Vegas.
My nephew has a high fever,
and he started throwing
up about an hour ago.
Proof of insurance,
Social Security number.
Did you get the new medicine?
It is illegal to administer this drug.
Save her son.
Social Services will stay with Luca.
You're not taking my son away from me!
Do you hear me?!
You have to let her go. She
has nothing to do with this.
- Just get in the car, ma'am.
- I took that ventilator.
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold on.
Hey, hey. What's going on here?
- Garrett?
- FBI Special Agent Garrett Miller.
What are the charges, officer?
Child endangerment,
administration of an illegal drug,
and felony theft of medical equipment.
What the hell did you do, Thony?
We didn't steal any equipment.
We were using it on Luca.
He's having his treatment
inside, and it's working.
You have to tell them to let us go.
Dr. De La Rosa is an active asset
in a Federal case, so she
has to be released to me.
She's already been
cleared with the AUSA.
You can call Detective
Williams and confirm it.
What about Fiona?
Officer, if you could
If you don't have clearance
on her, she's coming with us.
Take her.
- Alright, let's go.
- Oh, no.
No, please, don't let them take me.
Please. My kids need me.
Say something! Garrett, say something!
I just need some time to
figure this out, okay?!
- Garrett!
- Oh, my God.
No. I
I didn't
Please.
Get away from me!
Don't touch me!
I didn't poison you!
Then how did that medicine
get into my system?!
Nadia, let me in.
I want to talk to you.
Joseph, let me go, please.
You know I can't do that.
Please, let me go.
So, what can you do?
I don't know, alright?
I can't just wave a magic wand.
Well, you got me out.
Yeah, as my informant.
Look, unless you can
deliver something on Kamdar,
you can't keep demanding things.
Okay, so if I give you something,
you can arrest him and
then you can get Fiona out?
Wait a minute.
What do you have on him
that you haven't given me?
Thony.
I told you that he helped me
with a-an experimental drug from Manila.
The one that got you and Fiona arrested?
What I didn't tell you
is that I went with him.
- To Manila?
- Yeah.
And we got a lot more
than just Luca's drugs.
How much more?
A large shipping container.
I thought we were
just bringing medicine,
but he smuggled in Fentanyl, lots of it.
God damn it, Thony.
That's what we could have busted him on.
How come you didn't tell me any of this?
Now that crap is gonna hit the streets.
I know.
- Where's that shipment now?
- I don't know.
Kamdar's men came yesterday.
They moved it.
Alright, look, if we can
get our hands on those drugs,
- I can put him away for life.
- Okay.
But you're gonna have to testify.
I can't do that.
He'll come after my whole family.
Not if I can protect you.
We get those drugs, you testify, right?
I can use that to get Fiona out of jail,
relocate your family,
give you new identities, legal ones.
- You could do that?
- Yeah.
If we can get Kamdar behind bars, yes.
But this is a two-way street,
and if you keep anything
from me, deal's off.
Arrested? How?
I-I needed this ventilator for Luca,
but they would not let us use it
because of this new drug
that hadn't been approved here,
and we got ourself
into a lot of trouble,
and it was my fault.
So, how come they let you out?
Can you two give us a minute?
We need to know what's going on.
I have been doing some
work for an FBI agent.
What?
He's going to help your
mom get out of jail.
He's the one who drove us
from the police station.
He's a good guy.
I thought he was just a friend.
Why didn't you tell me he was FBI?
Because it's not something
I'm supposed to talk about.
Look, he's going to help your mom.
So, everyone knew but me?
She was just trying to protect us, okay?
- It's not
- I'm not a kid anymore.
You should've told me.
Jaz. Jaz! Come on.
Fiona's gonna be okay.
I want to make sure of this.
Oh, she better be,
because it sounds
like it was your fault.
I needed that ventilator for Luca.
So you just took it?
As long as you continue
to make these choices,
you're just gonna keep
hurting this family.
I need to go check on my daughter.
Alright, we'll get surveillance up
in Kamdar's suite, see
if Nadia's in there.
Well, if she is,
we need to get her out
- before any of this goes down.
- No.
We can't make a move
until we get those drugs.
And you have no idea
where he's moved them?
- No.
- What made you even think
you could get away
with stealing from Kamdar?
They thought he'd be dead.
I can still testify without them, right?
No. No, without evidence,
we won't have enough to convict.
It'll be your word against his.
Okay, let me talk to Kamdar.
I'll try to figure out
where the drugs are.
No way. After that stunt
at the shipping yard,
you guys are burned.
I think she's right. The
moment Kamdar sees us,
he's gonna want to put
a bullet in our heads.
What about Fiona?
You said that I had to
testify to get her back.
There is a truckload of
Fentanyl about to hit the streets
that you are responsible for.
So, no matter how much
Miller wants to help your sister-in-law,
she is not the FBI's priority right now.
So, that's it?
You're not gonna give me a chance?
I can get back in with Kamdar.
It's too dangerous. You know that.
Just let us handle it, Thony.
Once we got Kamdar behind bars,
then you can do your part and testify.
And I'll see about Fiona.
He's wrong.
- I can get back in with Kamdar.
- You can't.
You need to stay the hell away from him.
And what, let Fiona stay
in jail and get deported?
Do you really trust
the FBI to protect you?
There's only one way to make
sure none of us get hurt.
If you kill Kamdar, you get arrested,
I'll lose Fiona.
You don't understand, Thony.
As long as Kamdar is
breathing, none of us are safe.
Hey. You okay?
No.
JD's right.
I-I did this to you, and I'm sorry.
Look, we did it for Luca, but now,
I have to think about my kids.
I mean, what are they gonna do
with their mother in jail,
huh? O-Or if I get deported.
I-I don't even want them
to see me in here like this.
I told them that
Garrett is going to help.
Oh, no! No.
You can't make promises
like that to them.
He will.
He said if I testify, he
will get you out of here.
He's gonna give us papers, green cards.
Even for Chris.
Ahh.
That sounds just too good to be true.
Come on.
It is, isn't it?
I just need to find the evidence.
So, Garrett's boss seems to
think I can't do it, but
No, because you can't
do everything, Thony.
- Yes, I can.
- Just
I know how to talk to Kamdar.
I'm gonna make him trust me again,
and I will find the
evidence before they can.
Wait, you're gonna do this
without the FBI backing you?
Yes. That's the only way
I-I can get you out
of here and protect us.
No, no, no. Not if it gets you killed.
I'm gonna fix this, Fi.
- Just
- I promise.
Enough.
I promise.
Look, man, you said
I had until next week.
I've paid Kamdar five times
what I borrowed already.
It's killing me.
Well, that's how it works.
But I didn't come here
to take your money.
See, I have a different deal to offer,
one that will get you out.
Hey, no, no, no, not that crap.
Pour us a couple of 25 Year Reserves.
Thony's intel was good.
Jefferson's now got
eyes on Kamdar's suite.
The vantage point is
limited, but it's something.
Is Nadia still in there?
Yeah, and she seems safe for now.
Good.
'Cause we're gonna tie
this son of abitch
to every Fentanyl overdose in the city.
If we find the drugs.
We will.
From your lips.
Dinner at Bluey's tonight?
You're on.
Jefferson, how's the view?
I got a better view of
myself than anything else.
But I got some movement inside.
Alright, man, if things get
interesting, let me know.
Copy.
Come on, Jaz.
Let's talk about this.
No!
I don't want to talk you anymore.
What happened?
You should've married
Mom when I said so.
I spoke to an attorney to
see what options we have,
and, uh, to find out
if it made a difference
- if I married your mom.
- And?
He said it's too late for that.
Because she's already being detained,
it'll be hard to prove
that it's not fraud.
But we've been living here with you.
Eh, doesn't that help?
I mean, you guys are in
a relationship, in a way.
Aren't you?
The bigger issue is that
she's been living here
illegally all these years,
so she'll have to
leave the country first.
And then she can come back?
She'll be barred from
returning for 10 years.
10 years?
No, that's That's insane.
There There's gotta be another way!
There's a possibility for a waiver,
but we have to prove extreme hardship.
Okay, well, what about us? Jaz?
Is she just supposed to
grow up without a mom?
Unfortunately, having
kids here doesn't count.
But
What's that gonna do to my mom?
How is she gonna deal
with not seeing us or
Or or being with us?
It's gonna kill her.
I can talk to another lawyer.
I can get another opinion, but he said
that even if she had a green card,
grand theft is a deportable offense.
Because they took the medical equipment,
he doesn't think we have much of a case.
- I want to see her.
- Okay.
Um, go tell your sister
to come eat something
- and then we'll head over
- No, no, no.
I-I want to see her alone.
Hey.
Hi. Wait, um, wh Where's Jaz?
- Is everything okay?
- Yeah.
Chris wanted to speak with you alone.
I'll just be outside,
give you guys some space.
Um, okay.
What What's going on, anak?
I, um
I just wanted to let you
know that I made a decision.
If you get deported,
then I'm going with you.
What? No.
No, no, no, no. That's not happening.
Hey, it's my choice, okay?
I'm not gonna let you go alone.
Come on, Chris, this is crazy.
No, it's not.
I'm not even supposed
to be here, alright?
I'm a TNT, just like you.
You're wrong, okay?
You're supposed to be here
because everything I did,
- I did for you
- Don't roll your eyes at me.
Everything I did, I did for you.
I know. I know.
I-I see that, and I appreciate it.
- I do.
- No.
No, you don't, because if you did,
you wouldn't be saying this.
Look, every sacrifice I've made,
every lie I've told,
every toilet I've cleaned,
it was for you
so you could have a life here.
Okay, and you're not throwing that away.
You hear me?
But how am I supposed to stay here
if you're forced to go?
Because this is your home, anak.
You're meant to be here.
Look, I-I know
I know this must be hard on you, but
the best thing you
can do for me right now
is is live the life
I've always wanted you to have.
Hmm?
He'll see you.
There's something called
"honor amongst thieves".
You don't abide by
that principle, do you?
Look, I didn't steal from you.
Arman did.
I need that medication for my son,
and you need a new supplier.
Nothing's changed.
I mean, he tried to steal from you
because you cut him out,
but there's no reason
for you to cut me out.
Don't listen to her, Robert.
She's not someone who can be trusted.
How do you know she
didn't re-route the drugs?
Because I need you as
much as you need me.
That drug from Manila works.
But I only got one box
before your men stopped me.
If I don't get the rest,
my son could die.
That sounds very much
like what you need.
Look, that pharmaceutical contact
in Manila is mine.
With all the corruption,
people don't trust easily
in the Philippines.
I know how to keep that pipeline going,
just like you asked, without Arman.
And so, you'd switch
allegiances just like that?
Because she's a selfish snake.
Everything I've done,
I've done for my son.
So, you may not trust me,
but you can trust that.
Yes, Arman helped me in the past,
but you're the one who can help me now,
and I need this deal more than anybody.
And that's why you saved my life
after I was poisoned.
When does your son need
the rest of his medicine?
As soon as possible.
Just let her have them,
Robert, then be done with her.
The last thing you want
is to be in the Caymans
worrying about how she
could be screwing you over.
Alright, let's go.
Now?
That entire shipment's about
to be handed over to my buyer.
It's best we catch
them before it happens,
don't you think?
What the hell?
Come on. I would hate to
keep our buyer waiting again.
What's up?
We got a problem.
Your girl Thony is with Kamdar.
You didn't put her in there, did you?
Hell no. You sure?
Yeah. And they're heading out.
Something is going down now.
Alright, Caudillo's
got eyes on the valet.
Alright, make sure he stays with them.
Caudillo, tell me you've got Kamdar.
Yeah. They're down here at the valet.
And Thony?
She just got in a vehicle with them.
There's two S.U.V.s in front.
Thony's riding with Kamdar
in the third behind them.
Any idea where they're headed?
Not yet, but they're on the move,
turning northbound on the strip,
with heavy security detail.
We're on our away,
but do not engage until you have backup.
Understood.
Talk to me, Caudillo.
Where are they now?
Just turned west on Range Road.
- What the hell is out there?
- Not much.
I gotta drop back or I'll be seen.
Alright, just don't lose them.
Garrett?
I told you to stay the
hell away from Kamdar.
What the hell are you talking about?
Thony's with him now.
Damn it.
You have any idea where they're going?
You're gonna have to
give me more than that.
We're in North Vegas,
heading west on Range Road.
Yeah, there's a junkyard out there.
Kamdar used to send me to collect.
They have to be headed
in that direction.
I'll see you there.
No. You stay the hell away.
Arman!
Damn it.
My buyer has some trust issues,
which is why we're here.
And I have to say, so do I.
I really, really need to get those meds
back to the hospital for Luca.
Don't worry.
Your meds are here.
I told you not to come here.
Yeah, well, you know
that wasn't happening.
You're not going in without this.
Come on.
Let's go pretend to be on the same side.
Come on!
There's something I still
need to discuss with you.
You said my cardiac arrest
was caused by a drug interaction.
Well, that was just a guess.
Don't lie to me, Thony.
- How many?
- About five, six.
I swear.
You saved my life, yes,
but you just happened to be right there.
Like you knew what was coming.
And Joseph told me you refused
to use the defibrillator
- that would've killed me.
- Yes.
Based on all my
experience as a doctor
The truth, Thony! The truth.
If I knew anything, Robert,
I would tell you, okay?
- Finish her.
- What? Think of
Think of my son.
And I-I just saved your life.
And for that, I'll
grant a life for a life.
Your son can live.
We won't touch your family.
But you've lied to
me one too many times.
No.
Don't move!
Aah!
Stay there!
Robert Kamdar!
Up against the vehicle.
We got him.
Garrett?
Garrett, can you hear me?
Garrett down!
Help!
Breathe.
Garrett.
Stay with me.
Garrett, stay with me.
Hold on. Hold on.
You did it.
No, we did it.
Agent down over here!
Garrett?
Garrett.
N No.
Hi.
How is he doing?
Good. The doctor said
the treatment worked.
He's stable.
Mom!
No touching.
How are guys doing?
And how how's Luca?
He was sleeping, so they
wouldn't let us see him,
but the social worker
says he's doing okay.
Good. Good.
Well, sometimes, you
need to do what you know
is right in your heart,
and even when other
people say it's wrong.
Okay, but it's not right
that you have to pay
for it like this.
I know, anak.
But But don't worry.
Your Auntie T is, uh She's
working on getting me out.
But what if she can't?
What if you get deported?
Um
I guess I guess, maybe
your your dad can
Oh, Fi, you know I've got them.
That's something you don't
have to worry about, okay?
We'll be fine, Mom.
We'll be okay.
We'll work it out.
I'm just I'm holding
you tight right now.
Don't worry. Your Auntie T, she's on it.
They told me I'd find you here.
Have a seat, Thony.
You know, Garrett graduated
97th in his class at the Academy?
97th out of 250.
He was average at best.
But no one had better
instincts in the field.
He could always find a way
to wiggle out of anything,
land on his own two feet
until he met you.
I never meant for this to happen.
We told you your status
as a CI was compromised.
We told you not to engage with Kamdar.
I-I did what I had to for Fiona,
and Garrett told me that
he would help get her back
if I delivered Kamdar.
And now he's dead because of it.
You broke protocols.
You endangered lives.
Not to mention the countless crimes
you committed with Arman
that Garrett let slide.
But Garrett wouldn't want Fiona
to suffer for your mistakes,
so I am going to take your statement
and forward it
to the U.S. Attorney's Office.
And if they approve it,
we will file the paperwork
to get Fiona out.
Thank you.
Please state your name for the record.
Thony De La Rosa.
Sorry to interrupt, but I just
got a call from AUSA Serrano.
Kamdar posted bail.
He's out.
Son of abitch.
How did this happen?
He's a flight risk.
His lawyers convinced the judge
that if he surrendered his passports,
he's not going anywhere.
That's not true.
He's He's going
to the Cayman Islands.
- What?
- Nadia tried to tell me.
He's got a private plane.
He's paying off immigration officers.
He's leaving the country.
Do you know where he keeps his plane?
Yes. I-I can take you there.
You better be right,
because if Kamdar gets away,
the deal is off.
You just said that you were
Garrett may have bent
over backwards for you,
but the U.S. Attorney's Office
isn't going to pull strings for nothing.
I already helped you catch him.
It's not my fault he
managed to post bail.
Doesn't matter. If we lose Kamdar,
there won't be anything
for you to testify to.
I'll round up the squad
cars and meet you there.
I'll send coordinates
as soon as I have them.
Copy!
He said about two minutes.
No. Not till Nadia gets here.
Here she is.
First you keep me a prisoner,
then you let him kidnap me!
You haven't been kidnapped.
You've been escorted.
I'm not going with you, Robert.
You tried to kill me.
I was just returning
the favor, so be fair.
Arman, wait.
Arman.
If you kill me, you'll
never get away with it.
I'm not gonna kill you.
No. Nadia?
Vamos.
So, how does it feel,
walking in here now,
being your own boss?
Not having to answer to anybody?
Not Hayak not Kamdar.
From now on, this is all ours.
You mean it's all mine.
- Auntie T.
- Hey.
How's Luca doing?
He's good. He's stabilized now.
Okay, good.
What's wrong, Thony?
Um
The deal with the FBI fell apart.
I'm so sorry.
So, what does that
What does that mean?
It means that your mom
has to go back home.
But this is her home.
Hey, you said you'd fix this.
- I know, Chris.
- You promised.
- I will fix this.
- Where's your FBI guy?
I want to ask him some things. Maybe
You can't. He's He's gone.
What do you mean, he's gone?
He's He's dead.
Was that your fault, too?
- Chris.
- What?!
How can you guys just stand there?
She got Mom deported,
and we're never gonna see her again.
Blaming each other is not the
way we're gonna get her back.
We have to stick together as a family.
Come here. Come here. It's okay.
What are we gonna do?
No matter what happens,
both of you guys can stay with me, okay?
- My home is yours, too.
- No.
Jaz could stay with you, but
Luca needs me, now more than ever.
So, I have to be there for him. Okay?
He can't keep losing everybody.
Mommy?
Hey, Luca.
Lie down, lie down.
Hey.
I missed you.
I missed you, too.
Hey, buddy.
Hi.
- Hey, little man.
- Hey, Luca.
Hi.
Where's Tita Fi?
Aim.
Ready? Aim.
I told you not to kill Kamdar,
but you did it anyway.
Fiona's gone because of you.
Thony, she's alive. Alright?
What I did kept us all safe.
You need to help me get her back.
You need to fix this.
What you're asking for is not easy.
There's a lot of risk,
and Nadia can't find out about this.
Thony, unless you trust
me in how I do this,
I can't help you.
I never stopped trusting you.
I know you did this to protect me,
but you have to understand,
I need to have my family back.
Officer Jappa.
I'm sure you were just as upset as I am
about our friend, Mr. Kamdar.
But the only change to
your arrangement together
will be the management.
Your compensation will remain the same.
Kamdar said you might
be handling Manila.
That's correct.
There's one more thing.
On our next shipment,
I'm bringing someone back.
