Miss Bala Page #5

Synopsis: At 23, Laura Guerro and her friend Suzu enter the Miss Baja pageant. Both qualify, and while Laura waits at a nightclub for Suzu to break away so they can go shopping, a heavily-armed drug gang murders drug enforcement officials there. Laura escapes unharmed but can't find Suzu, so the next day she looks for her; her dogged behavior brings her to the cartel's attention, and they force her to assist them as they menace her father and younger brother. Lino, the gang's leader, decides Laura should finish the pageant although her only interest is escape. Every day drags her deeper and corruption is pervasive. What alternative is there to death or prison?

Wait, you go.

Tell them I'll stay in your place.

We can't do that.

Take this.

Don't be afraid, little man.

I love you.

Go on, leave.

Linito, the man and the kid are escaping.

Let them go.

The boss says they can leave.

Shut the f***ing door!

Lino wants you in your room.

General Duarte, in today's

press conference...

... gave a full report on the attack

against the criminal group La Estrella.

Something that can

only be classified as a lucky hit.

We've captured most members

of the criminal group.

We've taken most of

their weapons and ammo...

... and we expect to have all of them

captured before the weekend is over.

Shut the door.

Take off your robe.

Put some clothes on.

They've tapped our radios.

I'm shutting down.

- Give me a holler when we are ready.

- You got it.

To. Keep an eye on Chiquirris.

I think he might be a rat.

You got it, boss.

That's enough.

Turn off the light.

Come here.

Lay down here.

Don't move.

Be still.

Hands up.

Put these on.

To. We're ready.

Call Jimmy,

we'll need three cases of bullets.

Canelita. You're gonna

bring back a truck.

When you cross the border,

go under the bridge.

I'll be waiting for you there.

Take a good look at these monkeys.

Tell me who took your phone.

This one.

To, we know who did it. Call the taxi.

The gringo is waiting for her.

Okay, we're here.

If they catch you with the money,

tell them you don't know me.

I have a family to feed.

- Where are you heading?

- To San Diego.

- Who sent you?

- Nobody.

- What's the purpose of your visit?

- I'm going shopping.

I need your passport.

Laura Guerrero, LG08714678.

- She's clear, let her through.

- Let her through.

Let her through, move the truck.

The chick got through.

Your passport.

Laura Guerrero, LG0871...

She's clean, let her through.

- Understand?

- Yes.

Stop, stop!

Hurry, they're hitting us hard!

Go get Canelita!

- Get down!

- Go get Canelita and the ammo!

Get down, get down!

Get her out, get her out!

Get the girl inside, cover her!

Let's get out of here!

Go, go, go!

Hop on!

What did the gringo tell you?

Kike Camara is in Tijuana.

What else?

He's under the name of Orlando Gomez.

- That's it?

- Nothing else.

That gringo motherf***er.

Okay, let's go.

Get down, get down.

Get in.

We're almost there.

Linito, they said it was the general

who screwed us over.

Okay, Pollo.

Sniff this, Canelita.

There's been a change

in the order of the girls.

Here she is, Laura Guerrero.

She goes on right after Jessica.

There's a change in the swimsuit lineup.

Listen to me, goddamn it.

Frank, get her ready.

Right now!

Jessica, it's time.

Just leave it, come on.

Coming up next,
