LUZ

Okay.

Welcome to the McConnell Unit State Prison.

It's my job to inform you that while you are here,

you are going to refer to us

as Mr. and Mrs. Correctional Officer.

Simple rules for navigating this place might be

don't tell anybody your business,

stay in your lane, keep to yourself.

Do that, you should be fine.

The state has decided

that you have lost your chance out there.

That's why you are here.

And as long as you are here, just remember you belong to us.

This is it.

Turn around and face the wall.

Hands behind the head.

Don't put him in here Dowdeny.

I'll take his eyes out.

He's bluffing.

- We're coming in. - I told you!

You told me what?

Turn around, Caleo.

Top bunk's yours, Gonzalez.

I can see the evil in your eyes.

Caleo, If you start something.

Yeah, yeah, Dowdeny, I know.

If I fuck this

I'm going to solitary, right?

That fucking sink right there, is mine.

You understand?

You even want to shit, you ask.

He's not gonna last one day in here.

Nope.

Everybody has their day.

Can I get a set in?

Keep moving, mother fucker.

You don't belong here.

Shit, look at him, he's picking up cigarette butts.

Do you guys got a light?

Are you lost?

Do you know where you're at?

You seeing this, man?

Hey man, you need a light or what?

I got you.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now,

and at the hour of our death, amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace.

The Lord is with thee,

blessed art thou among women,

and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now,

and at the hour of death, amen.

Hey.

You up, bendejo?

What's up?

In County somebody gave me some words of wisdom once,

they said, in order to survive in here,

you need to learn how to lose a fight.

Never snitch, borrow or steal.

Always roll with somebody

and don't associate with any homosexuals.

Here.

What's this?

- Call your novia. - I don't have a novia.

So then call your fucking boyfriend,

tell him to send you some money.

I don't want you're fucking help, man.

Take it.

You don't owe me anything.

When you want commissary, just get me something

when they send you some money, that's it.

Lights are out, keep it down!

You better not snore tonight either.

You're the one who fucking snores.

How's mija, Mamma?

She misses you.

Tell her I love her, por favor.

Okay.

Tell her now, please.

Mama, has Julio come near the house?

Once or twice.

Has any of those

been near the house?

Why are you silent?

Mama, I don't want any of those people around the house.

It's Julio, he's your cousin.

Mama, you know what he does.

- Okay, mijo. - Okay, Mama.

- Mommy? - Hmm?

God bless you, mijo.

Gracias, Mama.

What the fuck are you doing, man?

Shh, keep it down.

You want to make some money or what?

- You gonna cook, ese? - No.

Real men know how to cook, I could teach you.

It's a business.

You need a connect in the kitchen.

You take the orders, I make it,

Sal takes care of the rest.

Ah.

You need to be in the kitchen.

That's where you need to be.

This shit smells disgusting, man.

Come on, try it.

You go.

Last time I took this, I was taking shit all day.

That shit is disgusting.

Everything is looking beautiful.

Attention on F block, attention on F block,

officer Harris, officer R Harris

report to center now, please.

Gonzalez.

Back to work, mija.

Chop, chop.

Of course, what do you think?

Sleeps in the bunk above me,

he's rolling with me.

But you know what?

This little bird flew by my hair yesterday

and told me

just popped up in County yesterday.

You know what's interesting?

Don't worry, I'll have my people look out after him for you.

Hmm?

Today's your lucky today, pendejo.

Tomorrow might not be.

Alonso tells me that you're covering for him tonight.

I need you to pick up Adriana.

You know she's special to me.

Mi diosa.

I need you to take care of her.

Bring her home safe.

Okay?

And I don't need the fucking mafiosos

finding out about her either.

You remember what happened to primo Arturo?

Pendejo.

They chopped his cock off with pliers

and they shoved it in his mouth.

Then they shot him up with adrenaline,

so he wouldn't fall asleep.

Then they started cutting off his face

and they sewed it to a soccer ball.

Lil ninos kicked that ball around all day long all day.

All day.

Just because we're familia,

it doesn't mean you're safe, cabron.

You're early today.

Where's my regular driver?

Alonso couldn't come.

And he lets you drive his car?

He's my cousin.

Right.

And how do you know Julio?

No, no, no, wait, let me guess.

He's your cousin too.

Everybody in this town it's related, I swear.

You need something?

You got a cigarette?

Lifesaver.

You don't seem like the type of guy

to associate with these dudes.

That's because you don't know me.

These men are going to trap you

and they're going to make sure that you end up dead

or in jail.

Remember that.

I'm not like that.

I can feel that.

Julio's house then?

I guess so.

Somewhere else you'd rather be?

There's plenty of places I'd rather be.

You got everything?

No bread?

Cabron.

Good job.

Is this okay, like this?

What the fuck are you doing?

- What do you mean? - Give me this.

Mija, you hold it with the knuckle down, entender?

And then you cut, you see?

No fingers, dickhead, see?

I know a chef that has three fingers

and another one has four fingers.

You want to be the guy with the second finger?

I just want one finger.

That one you can stick up your ass.

Put your hands up.

Like this?

And your legs.

Square up.

Now, sit down, stay there, when you come up.

- Okay. - All right?

All right, sit down, square up and I'm gonna push you.

- Okay. - Come back in.

- Have that punch. - Like this?

There you go, just like that.

Left punch, now the right punch.
