Sh*t!

Diaz!

Mr. Lopez? I'm Lauren Adrian

from the Chicago Sentinel.

- A woman reporter?

- We've been around since Lois Lane.

I'm doing a story...

I'm doing a story on the murders.

Of the factory workers?

You did get my interview request?

- You've heard of me in Chicago?

- Sure.

- Can I get your picture for my piece?

- Yeah.

- Is that okay?

- Sure.

Why don't you guys get together?

You know what?

Hold these papers...

and act like you're having

an important conversation.

Perfect. That's it.

You look handsome, Eduardo.

I see you've met my old friend.

I need to talk with you

in your office.

You can't stop delivery

of my paper.

I'm not here for that.

Let's go into your office.

- No. Sorry.

- Okay.

It's not about the paper. I'm looking

for a young woman and her mother.

They're Indian.

There are rumors coming out

of Colonia Anapra about this girl.

They said that they would

be speaking to your newspaper.

I don't know anything about it.

I've been trying to keep my paper

from being shut down all day.

Do you mind if we look around?

- Do I have a choice?

- No, you don't.

Look outside.

We can't find anybody outside.

Alfonso, you better come with us.

You can't take him anywhere.

It's for questioning. Don't the police

question people in Chicago?

Is all right.

I've been through this before.

Call me for that interview.

You can come out.

You okay?

My name is Lauren.

I will help you.

- Do you understand?

- Si. We understand.

We work in El Paso.

A little English, we understand.

Maybe with your little English and my

little Spanish we can get through this.

She cannot go home.

They will take her.

- You understand? She cannot go home.

- Yes. Yes.

How about we do this?

You tu casa.

And I will take Eva with me.

That's what we'll do.

And if you need anything,

talk to Alfonso Diaz.

We'll go out the back.

You'll out the front.

Everything normal.

That's what we'll do.

What's that?

The Virgin.

She protects me.

You like that?

You like the song?

It's Juanes.

He's my favorite.

Look! There he is!

- He's cute.

- Yes, he is.

Very cute.

George, listen to me.

This girl was attacked,

strangled, buried...

and left for dead. She crawled out

of her own f***ing grave.

Does anyone else know

about this, any other papers?

No. I'm sitting on an exclusive.

I can't keep her here by myself.

There's this woman, Teresa Casillas

And she's on my interview list.

She started a group

for the woman workers.

Get this. She wants to find

the guys who did this.

And I'm going to help her.

Well, it's a great angle, Lauren.

But be careful. You're not a cop.

George, I gotta go!

Eva?

Eva!

Do you have my keys?
