OK, calm down.

I'm not doing anything.

No. We can't use it.

We can't tie him to the body.

We don't actually think

he ordered the killing.

The Englishman has never

done anything like this.

He's working for other people.

- Which people?

- Eastern Europeans.

Marking out their patch.

Demand there has skyrocketed.

They're tapping all dealers,

even hash smugglers.

I see.

This is a warning to everyone.

Cocaine is not like hash.

They won't accept mistakes.

The trouble is,

we can't afford to make any mistakes either.

They're calling

for someone's head too.

There's an opening in Tarragona.

Tarragona?

If you think about it,

it would be like a promotion for you.

You don't have a family

to move or anything.

I know, lucky me.

Don't hate me for this,

but it may be for the best.

You've pissed off

a lot of criminals.

Some of them have it in for you.

You can't live like that,

constantly under threat.

- That's my business.

- And mine.

A headless corpse

hanging off a bridge?

It's not torching a car

or spraying a door.

These people are different.

But we're so close!

We're so close!

Now we know it's him,

we can catch him.

It's just a matter of time.

Time we don't have

because of that picture.

Give them a different picture:

a press conference with a ton

of cocaine piled up behind us.

Three months.

Three months?

I'll bring you his head on a platter.

I don't know.

I don't know.

We could hide you for a while.

Hey...

You liked flying, didn't you?

In that case,

you can take to the sky again.

And Eva stays on our job.

Eva stays.

And why do you need

to go to Seville?

It's not me, it's him.

He needs my help to get a job.

You're the one without a job,

not him.

If you get it,

will you move to Seville?

I really don't know.

See? I need to push him.

He doesn't normally need pushing.

Once he's got what he wants,

he doesn't even remember your name.

Ask Susi. And not just Susi.

There's Reyes, Carol...

Hey, all right, we get it.

We'll come straight back, don't worry.

We'll be back in two days, you'll see.

Look, do whatever you want.

You always do anyway.

Hey, where are you going?

To dance. Is that OK?

Give you two lovebirds some space.

Don't be like that, babes.

She's pissed off.

Small wonder, with a story like that.

What a crock of sh*t.

What else could I say?

We're going to Morocco for weed?

Her dad's a cop, for f***'s sake!

I'm not sure about this, Compi.

About what?

Some guy offers you

a few lines of coke,

then suddenly

he's asking you to do this.

Do you think they put

ads in the paper?

"Wanted:
nitwits to cross the Strait,"

"with the cops in hot pursuit. "

I don't think so.

So if the cops or customs show up,
