Escape

Excuse me.

Thank you.

Oh, great.

Thank you very much.

I can't do anything for myself.

Broke it climbing Mount Chimborazo

down in Ecuador.

Thanks a lot.

Really appreciate it, I'll be fine now.

Thank you.

- How long are you gonna stay in Mexico for?

Just half a week.

Do you have anything to declare?

No, nada.

Okay, all clear, you can go through.

Thank you.

- Attention, please, attention.

Will passenger James-

Senor.

- Please report to the immigration office.

Senor.

Come with me.

- Look, there's no need for this. (groaning)

It's broken!

I got x-rays, I got a letter from my doctor!

You don't have a right to do this!

Really.

There's nothing there!

Cocaina. (speaking Spanish)

A lot of cocaine. (speaking Spanish)

- I would like to call the American Embassy.

May I please do that?

Embassy.

All these hippie gringos.

Who are the others in the padrilla?

The names.

The names.

There's no names.

You got to tell me everything.

Hey man, look, there's nobody else!

Look, I was stupid, huh?

I was muy stupido, and I'm sorry, okay?

I'm really sorry.

- My name's Roger Brody, can we try to stick together?

Sure thing, Dwight Worker.

Dwight.

You will be placed in the Dormitorio H.

Do your work, obey the rules.

If you do this, you will stay out of trouble.

Excuse me, Colonel Fuentes?

Fuentes.

- Is there gonna be a hearing, or something?

I mean, we haven't even been formally charged.

It is not my problem.

Well, can we at least call the Embassy?

I mean, our families, they don't know where we are.

You should've thought of that

before you imported dangerous drugs into our country.

Wait a minute!

This guy, he took our watches, and we'd like them back.

You can keep it, I don't need it.

Let's get a receipt.

I mean, after all, it's our property.

Your property?

You took our property!

You damn gringos!

You stole everything from us!

Look, all I want is to make a phone...

You will be here a long time.

And you will have a bad time here.

Hey, I see your mama tonight, gringo.

My shoes.

Hey!

What's going on?

They're called fahines.

We gotta clean the mess hall.

In the middle of the night?

It's ridiculous.

(chuckling) Now you've got it, Jack.

Just keep at it, you don't look up.

Because the mayora's got his beady eye on us.

Who?

Gardner-Pasqual.

Yeah?

Which guard is he?

(laughs) Hell, he ain't no guard,

he's a prisionera just like us.

Only he lives better.

Which one is Dwight Worker?

There, Jefe.

How long does this last?

fahines, I mean.

Two hours.

And you do it three times a night. (laughing)

Hell, you do it all day long if they say so.

All the new guys do it.

The only reason I'm down here with you peasants

is because my old lady was late with the check.

You mean a bribe?

Pay the rent, Jack, that's the message.

Pay the rent.

We'll do it for you, Gardner.

(speaks Spanish) You kill him,

no one makes a dime.

Tell Fuentes we're gonna do it our own way, okay?

I got a business to run here.

Hey listen, man.

Do we even get a trial?

- (laughing) Don't hold your breath. (laughing)

Man, I was dumb.

I guess I'm gonna have to serve some time, huh?

Yeah, I guess so.

But look, how long?

I mean, what do you think?

I don't know.

You're a coke dealer?

Figure, seven, no, in your case, probably 15.

Look, man, I never even did it before.

Man, they can't lock me up for 15 years!

Do your time, man.

Do your time, man, and leave me alone.

- Senor? - Huh?

What is it?

It's called rancho.

Yes.

But what is it?

Everything.

Hooves, tails, I got an ear once.

- There he is, the notorious Dwight Worker.

God, he looks bloody awful. (laughing)

What do you want?

Only to make your stay in my country

one big fiesta, senor.

Enjoy your authentic native dishes

served in colorful, old world surroundings.

Your friendly, courteous staff.

Look, man.

Who the hell are you?

J.W. White.

I'm sort of a special advisor to the gringo prisoners.

Let's start with your father.

What do you suppose his yearly income is, approximately?

Here you are, Dwight.

Right out of Better Cells & Gardens.

And it's all yours.

All your need is a little help from your friends.

I can't pay.
