When's your plane, darling?
Wish you weren't going.
The board is expecting me tomorrow.
I know. I wish
you didn't have to go.
I gotta see the old bastard.
When I get back, we'll take a trip.
- Isn't he a beauty?
- You're a beauty.
No, I'm not going to ride.
You got it.
You're under arrest
for Enrique Cordoza's murder.
Ann!
Enrique...
What do you mean, Enrique?
Jay!
What are you talking about?
- Mr. Wagner.
- Mr. Cable.
The frame-up is complete.
Santiago, extradited to Mexico City.
He'll be convicted within the month.
- Sentence?
- Between 25 and 30 years.
You resent my interference
in this matter.
We have a procedure
There's them and us.
The winning side and the losing side.
The line has not yet been drawn.
He threatened CIA interests
and my stockholders?
- Who did you have murdered?
- No one of importance.
I don't want my grandson
to suffer the same fate.
- Is that clear, Mr. Cable?
- Yes.
Your grandson will try to escape.
It's a pity, at my age...
...falling victim to a clich.
I don't know what you mean.
Because of a distant link
between his chromosomes and mine...
I say it's a mistake.
Perhaps.
Twenty-five to 30 years.
There's no possible way the accused
could have left Santiago...
...flown to Mexico City and returned
at the time we documented.
Nonetheless, it is...
...the decision of this court...
...that you...
...Jay Louis Wagner...
...are guilty as charged.
...of 28 years
in the federal penitentiary.
You'll be allowed the same
privileges as all prisoners.
Including conjugal visits
every two weeks.
This judgement is final.
Goddamn sons of b*tches!
Wait, wait. Hey, wait.
What did they do to you?
Huh?
all over me.
Who's supposed
Jay, what are they doing to you?
Well, it's not exactly the Ritz.
But...
Well, it is pretty bad.
It really is. Where's the money?
In the back of the radio.
- I'll talk to your grandfather.
- No, absolutely not.
- I don't know what to do.
- I won't kiss his ass.
This is all we need.
They'll sell anything.
Including freedom.
I really think you must do it legally.
Sanchez has filed an appeal.
I can't wait that long.
Last week there was a guy
in for pushing drugs.
He walked and they're not
looking for him...
...because he paid his way off.
Absolutely not! No!
Look at this place.
Look what they're doing to me.
Jay.
I want you.
The day we're reduced
to making love in here is...
That's the day I give up.
Don't worry, darling. I have a plan.
And this money will do it.
What's going on? Let me out!
Wait, man. Just wait.
- What's happening? Let me out!
- All right, I will.
Jesus Christ, what are you doing?
Let me out of here!
When I am ready, Mr. Wagner.
Let me out of here!
Let me out!
Let me out of here!
Let me out of here!
We can't let him stay
in that horrible place.
- Of course not.
- We can't. I can't.
Ann...
...it isn't just a matter
of fire and earth...
...and air and water
that makes up this world.
It's passion and strength
and cunning...
...and money.
I've got money.
As much as you'll need.
Jay thinks he won't get out
of that place legally.
He wants to escape.
Has he got a plan?
Not yet.
Well...
Whatever it costs,
you can count on me.
Hawk! Let's get the hell out of here!
- Come on!
- I can't breathe, Nick!
- Where's the bucket?
- Get the hell out!
Hey! Get back!
There's gasoline in there. The thing...
It's okay. It's okay.
You can't burn smoked fish.
But look. I wouldn't have believed it.
- Smoked fish?
- You from the health department?
- Do I look like it?
I'm looking for Nick Colton.
They made me burn my fish.
There's two tons in there.
Maybe they made you
because your fish is spoiled?
No, they're opposed
to fish on principle.
I've got to find Nick Colton.
Do you know him?
Who wants to know?
He was recommended by a man
in Fort Worth. Mr. Charles Mazdick.
That's Charming Charlie. Hey, Hawk!
He said, ask Nick Colton.
He'll do anything for money.
If old Charlie said so, you can
plug in, baby, because I'm Nick.
- You?
- Hawk, keep shoveling.
I'll be back to help.
So you want me to fly to Mexico...
...pick up this dude,
and bring him back.
Exactly.
I should tell you
Pan Am does it five times a day...
...with meals! Sit down.
Not on that road, they don't.
- Got a name? Passport? This guy?
- None that needs to concern you.
A poor slob needs a lift.
Be Kind to Hitchhikers week?
Can you do it?
I can land a jumbo jet on a quarter.
I'll tell you, 1000 has never
been a figure to palpitate me.
Don't judge us on looks.
We're growing.
Or the fish out there. I have checks
I haven't cashed. Look here.
Here's one for $500. I haven't had
time to take it to the bank.
That job was easier than yours.
All right. What's your price?
Like I said, we're pretty busy.
How much?
- Twelve hundred.
- Agreed.
- And 39 dollars.
- Good enough.
And 52 cents.
Whoa. Cash. Cash.
- I'll pay you after we get back.
- Before we take off.
If you insist.
We've got a deal.
Not quite.
The fee included an aeroplane.
