- It's a raid!
- THONY: Arman!
- Go, go, go, go, go!
- [GUNFIRE]
[TIRES SQUEAL]
- I left him.
- Maybe he got away.
How do you know Arman Morales?
I clean for him.
- Stop
- I'm his cleaning lady
lying!
Take her to Sin Cara.
Sin Cara?
Help me find him. He could be in danger.
We'll put our best people on it.
I had a baby.
We have a son.
[CHUCKLES]
How the hell are you here?
I'm not interested in making any deals,
if that's what you're asking.
I'm your new caseworker from
Child Protective Services.
I'm afraid Luca's gonna
have to come with me.
Remember I'll always love you ♪

I-I should be in there with him.
Please. And I'm a doctor.
I could explain things
that aren't in the chart.
But you're not his doctor.
And you're not a doctor in this country.
There are different protocols.
And in fact, the medication you gave him
may not have been approved
because of concerns about its safety.
This treatment saved his life.
He wouldn't be here without it.
I know this is difficult,
but this is an unbiased exam
to determine if Luca's health is at risk
or if there's been any harm done to him.
What happens after this?
After today, I'll do a home assessment
and then random wellness checks
before a judge will decide
- if Luca can stay with you or
- A judge?
You're telling me I could lose him?
No, no.
We always prefer that a
child stay with a parent.
So you'll get a chance
to bring in witnesses
who can attest to your care for Luca.
You mentioned that you live
with your sister-in-law, Fiona.
Someone like her will
really help your case.
LUCA: Mommy, Mommy!
I need to get in there. Please.
I'm going in. I'm his mother.
- It's my right.
- I'm I'm sorry, Thony.
As of today, your rights
are under review.
♪♪
FIONA: What do you mean?
I-I thought the FBI
dropped all the charges.
THONY: They did, but CPS
just put Luca in the system,
and now we're going to have a
custody hearing within a week.
I'm I'm sorry, Thony.
I feel like I'm losing everyone.
No. Okay? You're not. I'm right here,
and you're not going to lose Luca.
I hate having to worry you with all this
when you already have
so much to deal with.
Well, Paolo talked to some
of his turo turo friends,
and we're staying at Tay's family's now,
so hopefully no vigilantes will find us.
But if they did, I'm afraid of
what Chris will do to protect me.
I can't have anything happen to him.
It won't. I already made
contact with someone
that should be able to bring you back.
How? Through Nina's, uh,
coyote or something?
'Cause it's one thing for me to
take the risk, but for Chris?
I mean, people die on those routes.
- [DOG BARKING]
- No, it's going to be safe.
It's someone connected
to Arman's family.
They bring people in all the time.
And I'm just going to make sure
that they take care of you.
But still no word from Arman?
[SIGHS]
Nothing.
Thony, I-I'm sorry.
I wish there was something I could do.
I just keep remembering
that look on his face.
I shouldn't have left him.
Please stop beating yourself
up over this, okay?
There was nothing else you could do.
You're right. Let's just focus
on bringing you home.
Are you sure you can do
all this now? Uh, 'cause
Fi, I'm going through hell without you.
And Luca's hearing is in a week.
Hey, listen to me. I'm there. Okay?
You stay safe, and I'll get back to you
as soon as I've worked things out, okay?

I'm never going to let anything
bad happen to you, okay?

CHRIS: You, uh You sure it's
safe for you to be out here?
FIONA: Yeah, yeah. I'm not
going to live my life in fear.
And while we're here,
I think it's important
for you to know where you come from.

No, you're not of age yet.

I need to get in touch

Yeah, that's not what we do here.
In fact, making those calls
raised a little hell for me.
Boss didn't really appreciate
the Cartel storming in on our territory.
I can pay double what I did before.
Or you can tell us who Sin Cara is.

- Nobody's got a bead on Sin Cara.
But for some reason,

It's a miracle, really.
You have no right to be here, Ramona.
I thought you wanted to see me.
Isn't that why you went to see Angel?
You caused quite a stir
from what I hear.
I just wanted to talk to you.
I appreciate your resourcefulness,

But as Armando's cleaning lady,
I thought you'd know
better about discretion.

Listen, I can help.
We have contacts. I can

But this is a delicate situation,

Yes. No one can know that you're family.
For Armando's sake, as well as ours.
If he's gone underground,
that's one thing.
But if he's being held captive
He'd be more valuable.
That's right.
But Armando is my family.

So how long has it been
since you saw Arman?
A long time.
He never got to meet your daughter?
I guess?
R-Ramona mentioned, um, her niece.
And St. Helena's.
She also said Arman and
you were very close.
We were kids. We didn't
know anything else.
When I first met Arman,
I thought he was going to kill me.
But if we didn't meet, my son
wouldn't be alive today.
He was born with a rare immunodeficiency
that led to one medical
issue after another,
and he only made it because of Arman.
Doesn't change who he is.
No, I think it speaks to who he is.
You may think that,
but people reveal themselves eventually.
So what did Luca's father
have to say about that?
He passed away a few months ago.
Sorry.
I know people don't want
to talk about these things.
Yeah, people don't want to hear it.
They just want to tell
you how to get over it.
You understand. You lost someone, too.
You don't know what I understand.
I'm really sorry, okay?
I know how hard it is,
especially on kids.
Kids are tough.
They get through it.
How could you not tell us that
Paolo's the father of Chris?

I when I got pregnant?
I mean, what you did?

consulate as soon as you can

passport renewals.
Um, I don't think that's possible.
It is if you know the
right person to pay.
Did you get the money I sent?
I don't think it's possible because
Chris took off on me.
He's been gone all night.
What do you mean? Gone?
I-I tried introducing him to Paolo
and just totally botched it.

Why? What did she do?

people become liabilities.

Ella es mi corazón, es mi alma.
Why keep that woman around?
She's nobody.
She should be buried

Just because she has ties to Armand
She's clearly much more than that.
And if he returns to find we
hurt someone he cares about,
he will never forgive us.
- Why does any of that matter?
- Because it does.
Until Armando comes back, God willing,
we have to keep her close,
learn what we can from her.
And maybe she'll even prove useful.

And once Armando returns to us,
you'll remember the bond
you shared with him.
Because he belongs to us.
No, not with me.

THONY: Nadia?
What are you doing here?
I got a call back from a mortuary
today, but it was a setup.
What do you mean? It It wasn't him?
No. Uh, a guy showed
up and threatened me.
He told me to stop asking
questions about Arman and
- Did he come for you, too?
- No.
Because he was Cartel, Thony.
I'm sure of it.
Maybe even Sin Cara himself.
Did Did you say that to anyone?
What? No.
Good. Because this is what's
going to get you killed.
- Especially the police, Nadia.
- I'm not an idiot, Thony, okay?
I was just going to file a
missing person's report
in case anyone turned up.
But now I think this guy has Arman.
And we gotta figure out who he is.
Unh-unh. I-I won't have
the Cartel near my family.
- It's too dangerous.
- Don't you get it?
From what he said,
Arman could still be alive.
And if he is, we need to find him.
If we don't back off,
they're going to kill us all.
Right.

that I can count on you.
If anyone approaches you
