How could I be so stupid to
let an FBI agent into our home?
- Come on. Move it.
- She's in trouble.
Yeah, I know. Camila saved Chris' life.
I mean, we have to do
something. I owe it to them.
The FBI is here, too. In my home.
Nadia cut a deal with the feds.
Her life ends today.
I'll take care of her myself.
There's only one way out.
- I can make it pain
- What What the hell?
[GRUNTS]
Thony, what the hell
happened? Is she dead?
No, but you're gonna help me
make everyone believe that she is.
And if I do?
I will help you take Sin Cara down.

[VEHICLE BEEPING]
[LAPTOP BEEPS]
[BELL JINGLES]
- How's it going?
- Find anything?
Got the drone over the Sanchez estate.
So far, no sign of any
kind of escape tunnel.
Keep looking.
What about my oat-milk latte?
I told you, until you find me something,
it's house mud for you.
♪♪
Well, that auto-body shop you
got me all and bothered about,
the supposed hub for
illegal cargo, is empty.
It was cleared out.
So maybe you're just sending
us on a wild goose chase.
Why would I do that?
I want Ramona taken
out more than anyone.
Hmm.
You know, we caught Ramona's
brother on a traffic cam
just a few blocks away from this.
Dante Avila, one of
Sin Cara's inner circle.
So why don't you tell me
a little more about Jorge?
I told you everything I know.
What else you want me to do?
I'm happy you asked.
Ramona holds a charity event every year.
And based on the files
Russo secured in the raid,
we believe this event is
a massive money-laundering operation.
I want you to score an invitation,
be on the inside when it goes down.
[GROANING] No.
Hey, Nadia?
It's okay. You're fine.
No, I'm not fine. I'm
getting the hell out of here.
Where are you going? You
You can't go anywhere.
You jabbed a damn needle in me, Thony.
- She saved your life.
- I didn't ask for this.
You just decided I'd be better off dead,
but you didn't give me any choice.
- But I had no time.
- Right, because you used me
as a scapegoat to save your own ass.
That's a new even for you, Thony.
Whatever good Arman you, it's gone now.
Y-You know what?
I don't like this anymore than you do.
I didn't know the Feds were stalking me,
that my handyman was
a stupid undercover.
I did this deal to save you.
♪♪
It's all true.
Except for the stupid part.
[SIGHS]
So what if I go along with your deal?
Well, we set you up with a new identity,
somewhere Ramona can't find you.
And if I don't?
Ramona discovers you're
still alive, and, um
you two are as good as dead.
Now, you wanted a choice. There it is.
[SIGHS]
♪♪
♪♪
[YELLING]
I'm pretty sure it's dead.
No need to pulverize it.
Creeping creeper. [SIGHS]
Feels really good.
You want to have a go?
You know what? Yeah.
- Sounds good.
- [LAUGHS]
[GRUNTING]
- [GROANS]
- [SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY]
[GRUNTS, SIGHS]
Feels good. You were right.
See?
We smashed the bugs.
[CHUCKLES]
No, but, seriously,
I hate to think of you
working with Jeremy after this
if that's even his name.
Yeah, well, I don't see any
other way out with Ramona.
Well, whatever she's doing,
I mean, it's it's not good.
[SIGHS, SNIFFLES]
I almost killed her, Fi.
What? When?
During her surgery.
[ENGINE STARTS IN DISTANCE]
She was bleeding out,
and I just stepped away.
[SNIFFLES]
Thony
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
- Hey.
- That's why that's the best way.
I work with the Feds, and
they lock her up for good.
[BLENDER WHIRS]
[SPEAKS SPANISH]
[SPEAKS SPANISH]
Oh.
Nadia.
- Yes, I know.
- She wasn't an addict.
You really expect me to
believe that she overdosed?
People have their secrets.
[SPEAKS SPANISH]
I mean, did you do this just because
you didn't want me
building something with her?
You want to know the truth?
Mirar.
She was working with the Feds.
Probably to get her assets released.
This means nothing, you
know. It's not even signed.
Any agent can draft
one of these things up.
It doesn't matter.
Still means she was
working with the Feds.
You suspected her yourself, remember?
Now this immunity deal proves that.
That was before I got to know her.
Hm. I'm sorry.
I know you were excited
about your project together.
But your judgment must
have been [SIGHS] clouded.
It wasn't like that.
Oh, whatever it was. I'm
only the messenger here.
This came directly from
Derek. He's never failed me.
If he says Nadia was a rat,
she was.
♪♪
Thony, it's good to see you.
Good to see you.
- Hungry?
- Yes.
I'll have the chef prepare
us the most amazing meal.
Come.
[SIGHING]
Well, I wanted to thank
you for taking care
of things for me.
I know it wasn't easy,
given your history with Nadia.
No, but I did it to protect us both.
Hm.
I have to tell you.
You are far more capable
than I gave you credit for.
It's not something I wanted to do,
but at least I could make it painless.
Let me ask you something.
When you were a surgeon back in Manila,
did you have to justify
everything you did to everyone?
No.
If you stay by my side,
you can reclaim that power you once had
without making any excuses to anyone.
I still want you to take a
bigger role in my organization.
I've been thinking about that.
I could really use someone
I can trust right now.
And your loyalty hasn't gone unnoticed.
What kind of role do you have in mind?
I think I may have the
perfect job for you.
You said you had some
encounters with the FBI before.
- Yes.
- Tell me about that.
♪♪
Está bien.
What was that about?
- What do you mean?
- The spread, the fancy linens.
Ramona only does that
when she wants something.
Or maybe she got it already.
You working for her now?
I mean, she said she needed
someone she could trust,
and, uh, I did save her life.
And I don't think I
have an option to say no.
Did she tell you about Nadia?
Yeah.
I-I-I'm still in shock.
Yeah.
Things don't add up.
I mean, the last time I saw
you, you turned up at the club,
you looked pretty concerned.
I wanted to know if that was true
that she worked with the Feds.
Did Ramona ask you to do that?
Yes, she did. Why?
Nadia and I were starting
a business together.
Ramona wasn't on board with that.
So I think she was looking
for a way to sabotage us.
Well, Nadia said that she
didn't work with the Feds.
- And I believe her.
- You two were pretty close, right?
Yeah. I guess we both were.
Ramona got what she wanted,
and she she's still the boss.
Yes. She is.
Right.
♪♪
Way to go, champ.
[SKEE-BALL MACHINE DINGS] High score.
Hey, so, as far as relocating,
La Grande, Oregon, or Provo, Utah.
Where would you rather be?
Dead. Like, for real.
[SKEE-BALL MACHINE BUZZES]
Better luck next time.
So? How'd it go with Ramona?
Well, she thinks I killed
her, so I guess I'm family now.
That's great. I mean, for what it is.
My clothes?
Fiona's, actually.
Okay, uh, just get me out of here.
- Alright.
- All in good time.
We've still got some work to do.
What do you mean? I thought
you were making arrangements.
I am, but your friend
here needs to do her part
before we can pull the trigger.
What are you talking about?
We agreed that I work for
you, and she gets to be free.
No, we agreed we need an arrest.
And so far, none of
your intel's panned out.
So you're saying that I have
to stay in this dump of a place
in these dumpy clothes for how long?
[SCOFFS]
Unbelievable.
You can't do that. You
can't renege on her deal.
Come on, you're a mom, right?
Do you give your kid a treat
- before or after they clean their room?
- Seriously?
- Maybe not my best analogy.
- [DOOR CLOSES]
Look, I already agreed
to go in deeper, and I am.
I'm working my way into that event,
but I can't do it unless she disappears.
If Ramona finds out
that I didn't kill her,
she's gonna come after my whole family.
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
♪♪
Nadia, hey, you in there?
♪♪
♪♪
- She's not answering.
- She's in the wind.
Take the car. Widen the perimeter.
Copy that.
I'm just going to try
until she picks up the cell.
Don't bother.
We've been tracking her,
so she pulled her SIM card.
She did what?
You two didn't cook this
up together, did you?
- Are you joking?
- No. No.
You didn't have someone
waiting out there for her?
This is worse for me than anyone.
If they find her, I'm done.
Okay, okay. Keep your cool.
Russo's gonna post agents
wherever Nadia might go,
so you should probably get home.
Let me know if she turns
up. I'll be in touch.
- Uh, two more.
- Two more?
Hey, guys.
[GASPS]
Oh. Hello, my love.
- Oh.
- I missed you so much.
I missed you, too.
Here you go. Here.
That looks good.
- I take it you didn't find Nadia.
- Mnh-mnh.
If she turns up somewhere
she shouldn't be,
she would expose us all.
It's so messed up, Fi.
What are the chances she goes to Ramona
and tells her everything? I mean
[SIGHS] I don't know.
Maybe if she thinks
Jorge would protect her.
And he might, from the
way he was talking earlier.
No, but she hates Ramona
after what she did to Arman.
I just hope she gets out of town fast.
NADIA: So do I.
What the hell are you doing here?
I hitched a ride in your van.
Under that big mess
of towels and things.
You can't be here, Nadia. It's not safe.
- You have to get out.
- I know.
And since you made me dead,
now you have to help me disappear.
I need my money, so you
need to go to La Habana.
Someone is targeting us,
and they're so deep undercover,
Derek doesn't even know who they are.
We need to root them out
before our business
sustains any more damage.
And I think Thony can
be helpful in this area.
She'll keep an eye out
for the Feds at the event.
Alright.
I guess it's your call.
It could be yours, Jorge.
What are you saying?
I've been considering
putting you in charge
of this franchise.
I can see how upset
you are, losing Nadia.
Your dream doesn't have to die with her.
You could make the deals
and decide how to invest the proceeds.
That should more than make
up for what you lost with her.
You mean use the money from the routes,
so that's the catch.
Oh, that's the best way
for you to get your pretty development.
And, you know, once it starts
making money on its own,
then you can do things however you want.
Okay.
Oh, and you know what?
After Violeta and I go
recruit some new students
for the program, maybe I can get you
a meeting with the developer.

- Okay.
- Thank you, Thony.
You're welcome.
Arman got these for
our third anniversary,
and he said, "This
is nothing compared to
what I'm gonna get you for our 10th."
[SIGHS] So strange.
All these things
belong to Nadia Morales,
and now she's
gone.
I don't think anyone can
make Nadia Morales disappear.
Except for us.
And this is how we're
gonna make it happen.
Yes. Yes.
[GASPS]
[SIGHS, CHUCKLES]
So, you gonna tell me who
that woman is in there?
Or is that something else
you were gonna keep from me?
I-I'm sorry. Okay?
Yes, I went to find Camila
with JD instead of you.
I'm just I'm just
trying to protect you.
Okay, protect me from what?
Isn't the best way to protect me
actually telling me
what the hell's going on?
Yes, you're right.
But those people who brought us across,
they're dangerous.
Okay?
And that woman in there
is hiding from them,
so we're we're
just we're just trying
to help her get out of town.
And they're the same people who
might have Camila and her mom.
So they could be in the
same type of trouble.
It's different. Look, I
will help you find Camila.
I promise. Just
I just got to deal
with this first, please.
- Okay, yeah.
- And we will find her.
- Anak.
- Sure. Okay. I get ya.
Well, okay.
Uh, what what do you
think? Ginger or blonde?
I mean, I-I hear they have more fun.
I've had a lot of fun in my life,
but I've never been blonde.
- Huh.
- Don't laugh at me.
[CHUCKLES]
Alright.
You think I can pull it off?
Girl, you can pull off a
pink mullet if you wanted to.
- I disagree.
- [LAUGHS]
Okay, I'm gonna go get your passport.
- Okay.
- Okay, let me see that one.
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
Are you expecting anyone?
- No.
- Hide her.
- Oh, my God.
- The money. The money.
Okay. Yes, yes, yes. Yeah.
[DOG BARKS IN DISTANCE]
- Hey, Thony.

Hey, anak. Kamusta ka?

Oh, Did you try that new
mechado recipe I sent you?
No, not yet. I, uh
I haven't cooked anything
since I made that sinigang
and Camila didn't show up, so
Nothing yet?
No word from her at all? Ouf.
I know how that can be.
- You do?
- With your mom.
One night, I made her
a very special dinner,
and she never showed.
And I didn't know why.
I asked everyone, "Is she okay?
Where did she go?
And then I found out.
She went to America.
Uh, no, Camila, she didn't
she didn't just take off, Dad.
I I I think there's
something seriously wrong.
I got to find her.
Oh, what are you going to do, anak?
I don't know. I-I-I found another lead.
Uh, someplace she might
work. Uh, Paradise Events.
I'm gonna go see if she's there.
Are you sure you should do that?
Yeah, I'm sure.
Oh, uh, but don't tell Mom, okay?
- Oh, no.

[CHUCKLES]
Look at them.
Kids are naturally drawn to music,
and now they're fast friends.
Yeah.
Our charity brings opportunities
to disadvantaged children.
Maybe some of your
cleaning-lady friends
could benefit from the program.
I'm sure many of them have kids.
This charity poker event is
a big deal for me this year,
and I'd like you to help
me make it a success.
I'm o Please, you
slow down. You slow down.
Okay.
[CHILDREN LAUGHING]
Luka, just stay in your room, actually.
Um, I-I am so flattered. Um
but I don't know how to play poker.
[CHUCKLES]
No one's asking to play poker.
- Just do what you do best.
- [LAUGHTER CONTINUES]
Be smart, resourceful, charming,
um, invisible when you need to be.
Just watch and listen.
VIOLETA: Hey, you want
to play hide-and-seek?
LUCA: Yeah.
One, two, three Um
four, five, six
Okay. So what exactly
are you asking me to do?
There will be new players this year.
Ready or not, here I come. I
suspect some will be federal agents.
I want you to be my eyes and ears.
Draw them out.
Normally, I trust
Jorge with all of this,
but lately he's been having crazy ideas.
LUCA: You found me. And I need you to
keep an eye on him, too.
Who are you?
Shh. You'll be moving through
front-of-the-house operations
and the backroom dealings.
- You're it.
- [CHUCKLES]
Well, thank you so much
for putting your trust in me, Ramona.
I-I-I really appreciate it,
Um, but I'm I just
lost track of time.
- I have to go.
- Oh.
I am so sorry.
We have to go to
basketball practice, Luca!
LUCA: Not yet. We're
playing hide-and-seek
with the lady in the closet.
[CHUCKLING] "Lady in the closet."
- Violeta?
- Yeah?
Princesa, are you having
fun playing hide-and-seek?
Eh? Where are you?
Oh, my gosh. He's never
been good at cleaning,
but this is embarrassing.
Where are you?
Dónde estás?
Luca?
We need to get going, my love.
You know I'm gonna find you, right?
Hmm.
Uno, dos, tres.
Oh, nada.
Okay, Violeta, it's getting late.
Come on.
- Aah!
- Oh! Aah! Aah!
Luca. Luca, Luca.
Luca, you you need
to get ready, my love.
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hey, hey, buddy,
I'm on the phone.
CHRIS: Get out of here.
- Luca.
- Sorry. Sorry.
- Aw, you found me.
- Hey!
- [LAUGHS]
- Found you.
Hi, I'm Fiona. I guess the
closet is too easy to hide.
- Nice to meet you, Fiona.
- Nice to meet you, too.
- Yeah, well, say goodbye to Fiona.
- Bye.
We need to deliver invitations, right?
Say goodbye.
- Let me get the door.
- Thank you.
- Say bye.
- Nice to meet you.
- Bye.
- Bye.
- [SIGHS]
- [DOG BARKS IN DISTANCE]
[SIGHS]
- That was close.
- No kidding.
- Thank you.
- Yeah, no problem.
Where is she?
I can go anywhere, Thony.
The Feds marked all my money.
[CRYING]
THONY: We should have known.
The FBI is never gonna
let you live with anything.
So they just went into my
safe and took what they wanted.
I had legit money in there.
They They probably dinged
all your accounts, too, so
Yeah, I'm not going to be
able to use an ATM or anything.
They're treating me like
some sort of criminal
when I didn't do anything wrong.
They're using you to push me.
Yeah, and they're pissed you got away.
Maybe you should go back and
let them help you get out.
I'm not doing that, Thony.
I'm not leaving everything behind
to go live a stupid life
in some flyover state.
I think it's the only
way to keep you safe.
We both know their
safe houses aren't safe.
Even if Ramona went to jail.
No, we're doing this my way,
and either I'm going to
that motel or you are.
[CELLPHONE RINGING]
It's Paolo.
Excuse me.
Hey, good looking? What's cooking?
[LAUGHS]
Well, come by. I'll
cook for you anytime.
Ah, I wish I could.
Oh, sorry. I couldn't help it.
Old wigs. You know, back in the day.
Look Mnh.
I'm calling about Chris.
[SPEAKS TAGALOG]
This girl, Camila,
he wants to go find her by himself.
[SPEAKS TAGALOG] He He told you that?
He asked me not to tell you,
but I thought you should know.
It doesn't sound safe.
No, it isn't.
[SPEAKS TAGALOG] Thank
you for telling me.
You don't have to thank me.
I'm his Tatay.
Yeah. Yeah, you are.
Hey, listen, um, I got to go.
[ SPEAKS TAGALOG] Bye.

Hey. So, um
it looks like we're gonna
send off that lady today,
and we we can figure
out Camila next, okay?
- Yeah, that's cool.
- Wait. W-W-Where are you going?
Uh, I'm just I'm
just seeing a friend.
Uh, w-which friend?
Will you just get off my back already?
- I'm just
- Are you looking for Camila?
Did Paolo say something to you?
Yeah. Okay.
- [CELLPHONE BEEPS]
- [CELLPHONE RINGS, BEEPS]
Seriously? You ratted me out to my mom?
- Anak
- No, don't anak me, okay?
- You're my dad for, like, what, five minutes?
- Hey.
I thought you were
cool until you decided
to suck up to my mom.
- That's not what this was about.
- Stay out of this.
Hey. Don't talk to
your mother like that.
I'm not siding with anyone.
I'm your father,
and I'm just going to be
that for five minutes, Chris.
It means I'm not always
going to be the fun guy.
I'm going to stop you from
doing things like this
to protect you.
Fi, we have to go.
Okay.
Okay, don't go to Paradise
Events without me, okay?
And you just stay in your room.
[DOOR CLOSES]
THONY: That's Jeremy's truck.
- Hey, how you doing?
- Can I help you?
[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]
How is that man always everywhere?
I think it's good that it's
him and not someone else.
Okay, we got this.
- Here's our secret weapon.
- Ah.
- Ready?
- Aye aye, captain.
Thank you.
Let's do this. Yeah?
Got you.
[BRAKES SQUEAK]
What the hell?
FIONA: What are you doing here?
Waiting for Nadia to turn
up. She keeps a room here.
She probably keeps
some money stashed here.
Passports, maybe.
What are you doing here?
Did she tell you to meet?
No, Arman told me about this place,
and we're just waiting
to see if she shows up.
How long have you
been, uh, waiting here?
- Mm, couple of hours, maybe.
- So that's what you do?
FIONA: You just hang out,
you know, lying in wait,
gorging on your takeout
tacos, stalking people?
I mean, how long were
you stalking us, huh,
before you raided our
warehouse and broke everything?
- Fiona, it's my job to get
- To do what? To do what?
To To paint racist crap on the walls,
and then pretend you're
some kind of handyman, huh?
That wasn't me. I hired a couple kids.
- They took it too far.
- Oh, so that makes it okay.
You know, you forced yourself
into our lives, and then
you you carpet-bomb
us with your kooky smiles
and you snake our toilet.
All the while, you were the snake.
Fi, let's go check that room.
What does that mean?
Arman gave me a key.
You waited till now to tell me that?
Well, she had a few things to say.
- I didn't want to interrupt.
- Yeah, I had a lot to say.
Unbelievable.

- Alright.
- Okay, while we're here,
we may as well try to find their stash.
- So check any drawers

Nothing here.
FIONA: Me neither. Nothing here.
[EXHALES SHARPLY]
Here we go.
This is it? No cash or anything?
Damn it!
How'd she get here first?
I-I-I don't know.
Why don't you tell me
about this place before?
When she first took off.
I-I just didn't think about it.
Hey, you're the one who
who went back on your word.
That's why she runs.
Yeah, 'cause you're not giving
me anything to go on here.
I am, Jeremy. I am.
I have an invite for that charity event.
What else do you want me to do?
Okay.
What are you supposed to do?
I don't know. She didn't tell me yet,
but she wants me close.
We're on the same page.
I want to take her down,
but y-you need to back off
because she could kill us both.
We can't be seen together.

Wish we'd done it sooner.

This wasn't supposed to be like this.

everything we fought for, now
he's gone, and I have nothing.

But even if I knew I could trust you
I also know how close
you are to your sister.
Now what?
Gonna keep running for
the rest of your life?
I have to try to start a new life.
That's why you tried to get your money.
Only I'm dead. I can't
have access to it.
Unless I help you.
I can't live off scraps again, Jorge.
It'd be too unfair.
I've worked too hard.
I have a new identity.
It's Natalie Vasquez.
If you could send that
money into that name
You would still keep your
half, just like we agreed.

There's shell corporation

What you're really asking me is
to keep all of this from my sister.
She tried to kill me.
Yes, you have to, Jorge.
Do you understand what I stand to lose
if Ramona finds out?
But you said you wouldn't let her win.
And then you asked me to go
all in with you, and I did.
You know I did.

Well, thank you so much

I-I-I really appreciate it,

I am so sorry.
We have to go to

with the lady in the closet.

Princesa, are you having

Eh? Where are you?
Oh, my gosh. He's never

Where are you?

Luca?
We need to get going, my love.
You know I'm gonna find you, right?
Hmm.
Uno, dos, tres.
Oh, nada.
Okay, Violeta, it's getting late.
Come on.

- Sorry. Sorry.
- Aw, you found me.
- Hey!

Hi, I'm Fiona. I guess the
closet is too easy to hide.
- Nice to meet you, Fiona.

I can go anywhere, Thony.
The Feds marked all my money.
[CRYING]
THONY: We should have known.
The FBI is never gonna
let you live with anything.
So they just went into my
safe and took what they wanted.
I had legit money in there.
They They probably dinged
all your accounts, too, so
Yeah, I'm not going to be
able to use an ATM or anything.
They're treating me like
some sort of criminal
when I didn't do anything wrong.
They're using you to push me.
Yeah, and they're pissed you got away.
Maybe you should go back and
let them help you get out.
I'm not doing that, Thony.
I'm not leaving everything behind
to go live a stupid life
in some flyover state.
I think it's the only
way to keep you safe.
We both know their
safe houses aren't safe.
Even if Ramona went to jail.
No, we're doing this my way,

No, Arman told me about this place,

Oh, yes. I've heard of it.

You're gonna see more of each other.

let's hit the driving range next week.

Jorge will be giving
you some instructions.
Okay.
Oh, I almost forgot.
I got you a dress for the event.
Thank you. You didn't have to.
Oh, I I did.
You're gonna look fabulous in it.
Thank you.

the shell corporation that I set up
for Nadia's insurance funds,
someone's try to access it.

Could she be alive?
Thony.
You know something, don't you?
What aren't you telling me?
If you had anything to do
with this, I don't care,
it stays between us, but
if you know where she is,
you need to take me to her right now.
[DOG BARKING IN DISTANCE]
I wish I could have told you, Jorge.
But even if I knew I could trust you
I also know how close
you are to your sister.
Now what?
Gonna keep running for
the rest of your life?
I have to try to start a new life.
That's why you tried to get your money.
Only I'm dead. I can't
have access to it.
Unless I help you.
I can't live off scraps again, Jorge.
It'd be too unfair.
I've worked too hard.
I have a new identity.
It's Natalie Vasquez.
If you could send that
money into that name
You would still keep your
half, just like we agreed.
It's a big ask.
There's shell corporation
upon shell corporation,
all in different states.
The risks involved
What you're really asking me is
to keep all of this from my sister.
She tried to kill me.
Yes, you have to, Jorge.
Do you understand what I stand to lose
if Ramona finds out?
But you said you wouldn't let her win.
And then you asked me to go
all in with you, and I did.
You know I did.
I think I deserve my fair share,
just like you got yours.
