Not bad for an old guy.

I take it life is treatin' you well?

Not bad. I'm off the force.

I just went out I.O.D.

- Everything's good, I guess.

- Well, I'll have to take your word for that.

I have a problem, Roland, and I think

you're the only man that can help me.

- What could I do for you, brother?

- It concerns Nikita.

- She all right?

- She's fine... for now.

But, uh... Look, it'd be best

if we could talk in person.

Well, if you'd like,

I'll head on out there tomorrow.

Oh, that's fantastic. I'll make all the arrangements.

My people will be in touch.

- Then I'll see you tomorrow.

- I'll send my plane for you.

- All right, brother.

- [Beeps]

[Sets Phone Down]

[Beeps]

- Mr. Sallinger?

- How you doin', sir?

Detective Simon. Good to meet you.

- It's nice to meet you.

- Welcome to town.

- Thank you.

- Yeah, I make it a point...

to check the itineraries of all

the private charters that come in and out of here.

You know, with the dope problem

in this part of the world.

And, uh, your name popped up.

Well, I understand, uh,

you're an ex-cop, and in fact...

Yeah, back in the day. That's right.

I also understand you're retired.

Looks like you're, uh,

carrying quite a few firearms too.

You know,

I was a cop in L.A. For about 25 years.

I just came down to visit a friend.

Simple stuff.

Yeah, I understand that.

However, uh, I didn't call for any backup.

You're funny. No, you know how us cops are, man.

We can't go nowhere without our weapons.

- So that's how I roll.

- Yeah. See, this is my town.

So I hope there's no problem.

You just remember while you're here...

I'll be watching you.

Yes, sir.

Well, it's nice to have somebody on my back.

- Yeah, we'll see about that.

- All right.

- You have a good day.

- Thank you, sir.

[Car Door Closes]

- Roland Sallinger?

- Yeah.

Manuelo.

I'm the driver for Mr. Wells.

Oh, yeah?

[Spanish]

Mr. Wells apologizes for not being able

to pick you up personally.

He's at the mansion waiting for you.

Any, uh, wife? Kids? Future wife? Ex-wife?

Kids you don't know about, huh?

## [Whistling]

Yeah. Who... Who needs a radio...

with your kind of musical talents?

You like it? It's a Mexican folk song.

- Very popular. ####[Whistling]

- It's amazing.

Very nice.

[Woman Speaking Spanish]

What are you doing?

Hey, baby. You miss us?

- [Spits]

- Now, why you gotta do that, Allegra?

Men like girls who swallow,

not girls that spit.

Why don't you teach

your boyfriend how to swallow?

Did you hear that?

[Chuckles]

Why don't you tell me

where your brothers are?

Because frankly, um...

[Allegra Gasping]

[Manuelo]

Is that my cousin?

- I don't know where they're at.
