MARTHA MARLEN:

Get off of me.

EL CASPER:

You going to calm down?

MARTHA MARLEN:

You better get off of me or I’ll

scream, I swear to God I will.

Faking like she’s going to scream, El Casper covers her mouth

with his. They give each other one long wet kiss.

MARTHA MARLEN (CONT’D)

I still hate you.

El Casper reaches around to his back pocket and pulls out the

nylon flowers.

Martha Marlen’s eyes light up. She takes the flowers and

pushes El Casper off of her, disappearing into the living

room/kitchen.

He can hear her fiddling with a bucket of water.

EL CASPER:

(El Casper yells to her)

They don’t need water.

She comes back in holding the flowers in the cup.

MARTHA MARLEN:

I know.

She sets them down next to her bed. El Casper watches her

adoringly. She catches him, smiles, then pulls off his

hoodie and shirt all at once.

His body is covered in the same tattoos as El Lil' Mago: the

three points of la vida loca on his hand, a rosary around his

wrist, “perdoname madre mia” on his neck and over his heart a

still raw “Martha Marlen.”

He hugs her tight, breathing in her scent, then pulls her

down to him and rolling on top of her. They kiss again.

10 EXT. MARTHA MARLEN’S HOUSE - DAY 10

Smiley tries to look through the window but can barely hold

himself up long enough to see El Casper and Martha Marlen

moving sexually on her bed.

He slips down, he eagerly tries to pull himself back up, but

is too weak from the baptism. He sits down, disappointed.

11 EXT. ROOF TOP - TEGUCIGALPA, HONDURAS - DUSK 11

Sayra watches the movements of the city from this vantage

point. Orlando approaches her from behind. She says nothing

to him.

He sits down quietly, appreciating the view.

SAYRA:

They’re going to build a golf

course there.

(BEAT)

You like golf?

ORLANDO:

I’ve never played.

SAYRA:

Me neither.

(BEAT)

I understand why you’d want to do

this trip. I’m not sure yet if I

understand why I should.

(BEAT)

I’ve just gone along, bad sh*t

happens and I just go along with

it. Just like your baby and Ceci

will have to, with out you.

ORLANDO:

If you want to stay, Nana won’t

force you to go, but...
