Sicario Page #3

For the DEA?

No.

For who?

For Mexico.

I was a prosecutor.

You're not American?

No.

Who do you work for now?

I go where I'm sent.

Where were you sent from?

Cartagena.

Colombia.

Listen...

Nothing will make sense

to your American ears.

And you will doubt everything that we do.

But in the end, you will understand.

Here, try this on. See if it fits.

Is he CIA? Are you?

He's a DOD advisor, just like me.

No, he's not.

Just pay attention to Alejandro.

If he says to do somethin', just do it.

I'm not authorized to follow orders

from Alejandro!

Especially in Mexico!

Fine. Then stay here.

But you don't want to, do you?

I just wanna know what I'm getting into.

Kate, you volunteered to get on this train

because you know

you're doing nothing in Phoenix.

You're just sweeping up a f***ing mess.

In six months, every single house you raid

will be rigged with explosives.

Do you want to find the guys responsible?

Yes or no?

Yes.

'Yes?

'Yes!

This is where we start.

Try it on.

There she is.

The beast.

Juarez.

You know,

1900s, President Taft

went to visit President Diaz.

Took 4,000 men with him.

And it almost was called off.

Some guy had a pistol.

Was gonna walk right up to Taft

and just blow his brains out.

But it was avoided. 4,000 troops!

Think he felt safe?

Welcome to Jurez.

It's brilliant what they do.

When they mutilate a body like that,

they make people think

they must have been involved,

they must have deserved such a death

'cause they did something.

It's brilliant what they do.

You hear that?

Those aren't firecrackers.

Mexicans are adjusting our route.

There's activity ahead,

we need to go around. Everyone hold on.

Nothing will happen here.

They try anything, it will be at the border.

Keep an eye out for the State Police.

They're not always the good guys.

Spotter vehicle, left lane. Left lane!

Spotter vehicle, nine o'clock.

I'm gettin' a boner.

Is that one of ours?

Watch the right, watch the right.

No, that's a lone wolf.

Eyes on rooftops.

Nothing.

Rooftops clear.

Bridge is one klick out. Road is secure.

Hotfoot it, gentlemen.

Everyone stay in this lane.

Our agents at the border are

waving traffic through

to get us over as quickly as they can.

Everyone stay frosty.

Okay, it's a f***-up.

What are we gonna do now?

Here's the deal. A car broke down up ahead.

It's being sorted out,

but it's gonna take a while. Stand by.

Get your service weapon out.

Red Impala, two lanes over, on my ten.

Copy that. Red Impala, two lanes left.

Roger that.

Three lanes left. Seven o'clock. Green Civic.

Bring your window down.

Gun.

Gun! Gun left!

What are the rules here?

We must be engaged to engage.
