you can thank the

cartels for that.

What's in it for me?

The only Way to find out,

is to measure yourself

against the mercury plains.

Whatever we confiscate,

you keep half.

But I need you here.

Boys are starting to look up to you,

they need a leader.

Half.

Mitch Davis.

Paul Whitesall.

Pleased to meet you.

I'm here to kick ass.

Who's ass, I don't care.

As long as it's spic,

Injun, or white trash.

Which is pretty much

a damn near certainty,

considering this line of work.

Wouldn't you say?

That's a pretty gun Paul.

Thank you.

There's suddenly a

time in any mans life.

Where he can look back

and see a turning point.

But for a soldier,

every moment is a turning point.

Who wants it?

Paul the apostle.

There's a drug runner working

out of Monclova.

It's a smaller town,

and he's keeping a low profile

for a white man.

But last week, a little

girl turned up dead

in Houston, on some bad meth,

his operation sold to her.

I got a newspaper article

with a picture on it

if you wanna let that

little girl's face

burn into your

brain a little bit.

But you shouldn't

need the motivation.

This guy is wrong,

and you are right.

But he's smart,

and he's well protected.

So We're gonna need to use

a little diversion.

Look at that bastard.

Shirt.

Beautiful f***ing shirt.

YO, guys.

- Sir, you need taxi?

- No.

You're going to the airport, yes?

You need a taxi.

I sent for a car thanks.

They're not here.

Taxi's better and less money.

Yeah, you know What, I'm gonna

give him another minute OK.

Come to my brothers taxi.

No, you know What, no alright.

It'll be here.

OK, don't, we'll see.

You're gonna be late.

Kid, What are you doing?

Come on, Benito!

Get out!

I'll light you up! Get out!

Get out!

On your knees,

on your f***ing knees!

OK.

- What the f***?

- What the f*** is pin number?

Come on!

It's... it's a credit card,

it doesn't have a pin number.

Where are the drugs?

The blue one,

the blue one has the number.

What's the pin number?

- One, one, four, four.

- What?

- One, one, four, four.

- Where are the drugs?

- They're not here.

- Alright, let's go guys.

Let's go!

Get the f***,

get out of the Way.

Where are they!

Paul, Paul!

Paul, let's go! Hey, come on!

Paul! Let's go!

We gotta put him in the taxi.

We gotta...

We gotta take him to get help.

Let's go!

Paul, put him in the cab.

Paul, put him in the taxi,

come on!

Let's go!

We gotta go.

We gotta go.

Come on, Benito.

I think he dies now.

Benito, let's go!

Mitch.

- Yeah.

- Do you know how to read?

Why?

I found the letter,

in the shirt.

Maybe from the girlfriend.

No, no, I don't

know how to read.

Yes, you do.
