M.I.A.

Who sent you down here?

You know better than to ask.

Yeah, yeah.

Hoping one day you'll come back to join us.

Who was that?

Some deaf cleaning girl.

Neighbor said a girl worked benita.

I didn't tell you to kill him.

He was going to expose you to federov.

The call was mine to make.

Your father would understand.

The old man is gone!

Tiger's eye.

Your grandmother gave one to me

and one to my sister when we were girls.

Carmen? The sister you hate?

What the hell is this? It's my mom's handwriting,

but it's all written in some sort of code.

Elias!

This is for you.

Have you cracked your mother's code?

Not yet.

What are you writing?

It's what I remember about the 12.

Neck tattoo.

Scarface.

That is not much to go on.

That's all I have.

Your grandmother gave one to me

and one to my sister when we were girls.

Carmen? The sister you hate?

I don't hate her.

I need to find my aunt Carmen.

Cops would have notified next of kin.

They might have told her something.

It could give me a lead to follow.

Teo, stay with me.

Jesus, gabí.

What's going on with you?

Nothing.

Talk to me.

My dad just died.

Yeah.

When?

Stand down until I get there.

I gotta go.

What the fuck happened?

He and his crew tried to seize our Tallahassee shipment.

- How many? - Six.

Our men took out five.

Brought him here for you.

Which crew is he with?

Don't know. Waiting for you to question him.

Well, who do you work for?

It's a simple question.

Fuck... you!

Again.

Who do you work for?!

I... need... a name!

Peña.

Francisco peña.

What makes peña think he can steal from us?

People are saying rojas territory is up for grabs.

Is that what people are saying?

Time to respond.

I can arrange a meet.

No meet.

- Take out his heart. - No!

Deliver it to peña.

What?

Let him know it's from the rojases.

No! No!

No!

I think my aunt lives in Miami,

but I don't know where.

Lovely?

Lovely!

Tell me you are not feeding that stray...

only my leftovers.

I want her out.

Can she stay just until... no. I do not want the police

coming around here looking for her.

They won't.

- Or ice. - I'm not an immigrant.

You may as well be.

You are no more than a nameless, penniless,

shot, and stabbed girl.

No one is looking for me

if that's what you're worried about.

Everyone thinks I'm dead.

It doesn't change the fact

that you are a risk I will not take.

Please.

I have nowhere else to go.

It is only my family in my house.

Then I, I won't stay in the house.

I'll stay out here in the Chevy.

- You won't even know. - A squatter in my backyard?

Tati Judith, please. Please.

She has lost her entire family.

She has no one.

If the cops come 'round,

or ice, or anyone asking questions about anything,

- I don't know you. - Yes, ma'am.

- And you're gone. - Understood.

You get one month, $100 a week to stay.

Take it or leave it?

- I'll take it. - Stanley!

This stray owes me money.

She's gonna need a job.

You too, lovely.

Stanley, you know what they need to get set up.

I gotta get to work.

Get set up?

What's that mean?

Two standard packages. Female.

You got it.

Closest matches. Take your pick.

Who are these women?

Washouts.

What does that mean?

Od'd, disappeared, worse.

So, these women are dead?

What can I say?

Being illegal can be a high-risk lifestyle.

But hey, their loss, your gain.

I found another lovely.

What about you?

Dani Cruz.

Why Dani?

Dan was my dad's name.

Excuse me, miss?

Hi.

D-Do you live in number six?

Yeah, why?

Well, I'm looking for benita Ramirez.

Are you a cop?

Not anymore. Private investigator.

Is benita in some kind of trouble?

Well, that's what I'm trying to find out.

When's the last time you saw her?

- Three days ago. - You sure it was three?

Yeah. She banged out of here at 4:00 in the morning,

woke me from a dead sleep.

Benita showed up for work at tiger-jonze Marina a day ago.

Well, she hasn't been here, and rent's due next week.

Any idea where she might be?

Does she have a boyfriend?

- Any family? - Not that I know of.

She's deaf.

I don't know asl, so we don't really,

you know, connect much.

Okay... Thank you for your time,

and, next time you see benita,

please pass along my contact info.

- Sure. - Thank you.

Hey, izz.

I'll head right over.

This is where you get a job.

What, you're leaving?

I have a job. In construction.

How are we supposed to get around?

The bus.

Next.

You two, over here.

Ids.

Lovely amié.

I got a hotel with housekeeping vacancies.

- That work? - Of course.

Report to the address listed here.

Dani Cruz, same position.

How much does it pay?

Ten an hour, cash.

You got anything with a higher hourly?

Anything with boats? Piloting 'em? Repairing 'em?

I'm also good with computers. Whatever's needed.

I am a self-starter and a quick learner...

I place day laborers. Next!

You're not giving me a job?

Look at that. You are a quick learner.

Hang on. We got off on the wrong foot.

That's on me. I've just been through a lot lately.

Haven't we all?

Please. I really need a job.

So does everyone here.

Next!

Can I take a look at your card?

Dani Cruz.

I got a light touch.

Welcome to Miami.

I am going to ask where to go.

Hi! How are you?

Elias.

Do I know you?

No. Excuse me.

What are you doing?

I thought that guy was one of the 12.

- Hola, mamá. - Mamí.

You're late.

What happened to my shipment?
