00:00.
02:30Shaney, you said I could quit soon.
02:33Sure, baby, sure, of course.
02:34A couple of more nights like this, of course you could quit.
02:37Thank you so much.
02:39Now, look out, darling.
02:40The contacts are still wet, all right?
02:42Let's see.
02:45Bad night for you, a very good night for me.
02:50Got a pair of Porsches, 560 SL, and a black Nazerati.
02:54That creep.
02:56He's got some kind of vice grip.
02:58It still hurts, Shaney.
03:01I'll rub it out, please.
03:03No.
03:04Here it is.
03:10All right.
03:12All right.
03:12Okay.
03:16B, 7, C, 3, 0, 2.
03:25Here we go.
03:26Okay.
03:26Damn.
03:30It's a rental.
03:33Shamey.
03:34Shamey.
03:46Prestige Auto Rentals.
03:48Oh, hello.
03:49Um, uh, look.
03:51My car was hit in the parking lot by a black Maserati with your, uh, license plate holder on it.
03:57Did you get the number?
03:59I did, actually, yes.
04:00It's B, 7, C, 3, 0, 2.
04:03It's rented to Ernesto Barrera.
04:08He's listed at 163 Bayshore.
04:11The number is 555-99-670.
04:16Thank you so much.
04:19Shaney doesn't love Cinder anymore.
04:23Shh.
04:33There you go, mate.
04:41Ernesto Guerrero.
04:43See?
04:46Who is this?
04:47Your worst nightmare, mate.
04:51Second Avenue.
04:54Busty little thing named Cinder got in your Maserati.
04:58Well, I've got pictures.
05:00And you've got trouble.
05:01No, you can't.
05:02Shut up.
05:03Now, Ernesto, there's a little alleyway off Second Avenue.
05:10I want you to be there in an hour with $5,000 cash, all right?
05:15Or you'll be reading about yourself in the post-dispatch.
05:21Now, let's go.
11:03Hey, Sonny, come look at this.
11:19Hey, man, take a look at this.
11:29Very cute.
11:39He's accessed the Department of Motor Vehicles.
11:42He'll be right back.
12:02He'll be right back.
12:03He'll be right back.
12:12He'll be right back.
12:14He'll be right back.
12:15He'll be right back.
12:24The flow of next tutti.
12:26Lo, the flow of the flow of the law of the nation.
12:34Gentlemen can no longer be dealt with on a country-to-country basis.
12:39El tráfico de narcóticos, señores.
12:42Es algo que ya no se puede tratar solamente entre países.
12:47Now, with newly allocated drug-fighting funds from Washington,
12:51we will be able to apply the latest in weaponry and electronic surveillance.
12:57Ahora con las más recientes asignaciones de Washington,
13:01de nuevos fondos para combatir las drogas
13:05y la cooperación de países individuales de Sudsul, América,
13:10nosotros podremos aplicar lo último en armamentos y vigilancia electrónica.
13:22Thank you, gentlemen.
13:24That's all for today.
13:26I'll see you in the morning.
13:31I understand you have a problem?
13:52No problem.
13:54I just find it impossible to operate in Miami.
13:57I think I can help.
14:01Really?
14:03Officially or unofficially?
14:05Don't be ridiculous.
14:07There's no way to get two people anything officially.
14:13Anything?
14:18Woody's.
14:19A bar in Hotel De Cap.
14:211.30 a.m.
14:24My associate will find you.
14:31No, no, sir.
14:32Listen, nobody wants to book you for soliciting, okay, pal?
14:37We just want to know where you were last night.
14:40Uh, I'm very, very sorry, Reverend.
14:49Yes.
14:50Sorry.
14:53Any leads?
14:55No, I'm 0 for 4.
14:56I just got a minister who drives a 911,
14:59and he was at prayer meeting at the time of the murders.
15:03Anything.
15:04Anyone.
15:04Goose egg.
15:05Still checking.
15:06Most of mine are out.
15:07This could take all day.
15:08Uh, can you hold?
15:11Just one second.
15:13Lieutenant.
15:15All of mine were awash except for one.
15:18Uh, Black Maserati was, uh, rented by a guy named Guerrero.
15:23Skyline Drive over in Biscayne.
15:25Talk about a long shot.
15:28Until Gina and Trudy run theirs down.
15:31It's the only live one we got.
15:32Get over to Biscayne and find him.
15:35If it's around, he may try to skip.
15:37I don't have much time.
15:38Get on.
15:38Get on.
15:55Son casi las dos, Comandante y Slate.
15:59Get over to Biscayne.

16:20Get over to Biscayne.
16:51I'm sorry, but I'm waiting for someone.
16:56Yes, I know.
16:58You are waiting for him.
17:00He's a very important man.
17:18He must be joking.
17:22I wouldn't touch him for a thousand bucks.
17:26Maybe I touch him five times now.
17:31I don't know.
17:32I don't know.
17:43I don't know.
17:44This is for you, sir.
18:14Let's go.
18:44Captain Guerrera, glad to see we're off to such a positive start.
18:59I don't trust my mother.
19:01Why should I trust you?
19:05Your mother can't satisfy your needs anymore.
19:08I can.
19:10That would make me very happy.
19:14But I don't like to be made unhappy.
19:23One thousand atomic long slides.
19:26Recoil compensators.
19:28Fixed combat sights.
19:3020 round magazines.
19:32300 Mossberg 870s.
19:3550 AR-15s.
19:37Is this for your gun club?
19:39Are you planning to invade Uruguay?

19:45Can't foresee any problem?

20:28This is a no export list sale.
20:31I've got to use cut out countries for my trans shipping.
20:34That more than doubles my cost.
20:383% high as I go.
20:40Wait a minute.

21:03There's just one more item.
21:04What's that?
21:05Base bars.
21:06No way.
21:07Too tough an item.
21:08I've paid top dollar.
21:09Uh uh.
21:10I can't afford the attention.
21:11It'll shut me down.
21:13Uh uh.
21:14I can't afford the attention.
21:15It will shut me down.
21:17Uh uh.
21:18No way.
21:20Too tough an item.
21:21I've paid top dollar.
21:22Uh uh.
21:24I can't afford the attention.
21:26It'll shut me down.
21:27You can't afford not to I'll shut you down right now
21:45This is it yeah
21:49Yeah, true
21:51Gina and I just finished all senders other John's have alibis for the murder night
21:57So the guy in the Maserati looks good for it. Yeah, we're at the address now
22:02And here he comes
22:21The reason
22:26The reason
22:28You
22:30You
22:32You
22:34You
22:36You
22:38You
22:40You
22:42You
22:46You
22:48Mmm.
22:55Guten Morgen.
22:57Yeah, anything since last night?
22:59Oh, a couple of dogs fell in love
23:02and started a family about six hours ago.
23:06Other than that...
23:11Wait a minute.
23:13Looks like you guys got here just in time.
23:18There's some people exiting the house.
23:29Two guys in a Maserati heading my way.
23:33All right, Swiatek, loop around the front.
23:36I don't want him getting too far.
23:38Right.
23:48Let me go!
23:50Exit the car slowly.
24:03Real slow.
24:05Then load that jacket there, big boy.
24:09Right down there.
24:11Tell your babysitter to do the same thing.
24:15Ah, lo que diga.
24:16Get up against the car.
24:18Up against the car and spread them fingers.
24:20Now!
24:21What is the meaning of this violation?
24:23Now, you see, uh, somebody threw a double murder the other night.
24:30Rumor has it that you were the host.
24:32General Ernesto Guerrera, Policia de Nacionales, Santiago, Chile.
24:42Well, let me tell you something, Ernie.
24:44Down there in Chile, this might give you a license to kill.
24:47Here in Miami, it don't mean squat.
24:58Don't expect any diplomatic immunity up here.
25:01Cause you ain't got none.
25:05Visiting police officers in this country are considered private citizens.
25:10Tell me something, Ernie.
25:12Where were you three nights ago?
25:15This was my country. You would be dead by now.
25:24Yeah, well, we got a little legal technicality up here.
25:28Called the Sixth Amendment.
25:31Gives us some shooting dogs like you when we arrest you.
25:36Rico, read him the card.
25:38Cut him loose.
25:40Who the hell are you?
25:42Brody, DEA.
25:43DEA. This man is a guest of the Justice Department.
25:46My apologies, General Guerrero. You're a freak ghost.
25:48Not until this peasant picks up my gun.
25:52A cold day in July, pal.
25:55General Guerrero is an ally of ours in the war against the Andean Koch Cartel.
26:01No kidding.
26:02To me, he just looks like another cattle prod specialist with an overactive libido.
26:10Idi cuoco.
26:12Hey, look, the DEA does not have jurisdiction.
26:15Guerrero's a suspect in double homicides, and he has to be questioned.
26:19Tomorrow morning, 10 a.m., my office.
26:24Teach your friend some manners.
26:29This is nuts.
26:30We're waiting for him.
26:32This guy could be halfway to Santiago by now.
26:35Brody assured me he'll be here for questioning.
26:38Do you think that'll get us a wiretap?
26:42Doubtful.
26:45Even if it could, we can't have a counselor without state approval.
26:52Bad chance.
26:54Why not?
26:55Because the wind down in Chile has been blowing from the far right since 73.
27:01So?
27:03D.C. is not going to upset the rabid anti-communist.
27:07To the point of covering up for murder?
27:10He may not have to.
27:11We can't come up with a stronger case against Guerrero.
27:14He walks.
27:17We may have caught some luck according to this rental agreement.
27:21Guerrero's Maserati is a car phone.
27:26And?
27:30Well, car phones are basically just radios.
27:34They've got open frequencies that transfer from zone to zone by repeaters.
27:39So?
27:41So, as long as we stay in the same grid, we can lock onto the frequency and monitor all the calls.
27:49Means we don't need a warrant.
27:52You think they'll hold up in court, Lieutenant?
28:00If we lay out our probable cause, stress, hexogen circumstances, minimize our monitoring to relevant conversations, it might fly.
28:11That sounds like a yes to me.
28:18Do you got me?
28:20Where the hell have you been?
28:22We've had a plane standing by at Opelaka all day.
28:24I'm not ready to leave yet.
28:27My business is not finished.
28:29Yeah?
28:30Well, Vice is getting ready to put you out of business permanently.
28:34Do I sound worried?
28:36You should be.
28:38Your gold star didn't cut any ice up here.
28:42I will leave when your associate delivers.
28:46It's a delivery that I assume will profit you as well.
28:51I'm only in this for the finder's fee.
28:54Ten grand isn't enough for me to risk my pension.
28:57Fine.
28:58We'll make it 20.
29:00Does that calm your nerves?
29:01DEA brought you here, but I'm your handler.
29:05Anything embarrassing happens, it's my butt that gets barbecued, mister.
29:10So while you're in Miami, do me a favor.
29:13Leash the libido.
29:14So you can pick this guy up with an ordinary police scanner?
29:42Same thing the Feds used to crack the pizza connection case in New York.
29:48Trust me.
29:54Hotel Decaf?
29:56Speed dials, please.
30:01Trust.
30:02The water filled.
30:12Open the special.
30:14Other toys will be shipped.
30:16Hello, gentlemen.
30:18Puerto Barrios.
30:19One of them.
30:29Dammit, Stan.
30:33We'll have it tomorrow.
30:34We'll take them.
30:35It's mine.
30:36It's mine.
30:37It's mine.
30:39Yeah.
30:44I lost him.
30:47He didn't get much more than a name.
30:50Rare called the Ducap to a guy named Speed Stiles.
30:54Stiles.
30:55I'll run that through the computer and see what I get.
30:58Yeah, do that.
30:59Homicide just called.
31:00We got it related over at the tropical.
31:03You're kidding.
31:04Suicide?
31:06Bring back all the records, including ballistics.
31:08Yeah, I'm sure we can give them odds on the type of gun.
31:11I think I'll tag along just to check this one out.
31:15We'll meet you over there.
31:16The rumor has it this one's of interest to you guys.
31:29Now, full confession to your double homicide.
31:31Madre de Dios, perdóname.
31:38It says, Mother of God, forgive me.
31:42I'm sorry for taking the lives of the young prostitute and her boyfriend.
31:49How convenient.
31:50Yeah, don't you just love the symmetry of it all?
31:54Looks like Guerrero won't have to stand for questioning after all.
31:58Why the hell not?
32:00Give me a break.
32:05Ramon always drives Guerrero's car.
32:08You've got blackmailed pictures of the dead hooker getting into it.
32:12Tonight he not only confesses, but he kills himself using the same gun.
32:16I guess Guerrero was home making chili rellenos through all this.
32:19As a matter of fact, he was in his quarters at the consulate.
32:22I have notarized statements from the staff swearing to his presence during both incidences.
32:28Look, it was obviously Ramon in the car. Guerrero never drives himself.
32:33And there was only one man in the car in the pictures. Case closed.
32:38Wait a minute. We got proof that says...
32:40Give it up, Swiatek.
32:43We're just gonna have to swallow hard on this one.
32:46Agent Brody has the evidence. We don't.
32:49Far be it for us to question the wisdom of the DEA.
32:58When he's right, he's right.
33:00You think he's shoveling snow?
33:09Miami to Guatemala. Wrong direction.
33:10Besides, toys is a company word for munitions.
33:11He's running guns.
33:12Maybe.
33:13Chile's been off limits to U.S. munitions exports since 76.
33:14When Carter accused Pinochet of using data.
33:15He's running guns.
33:16Maybe.
33:17Chile's been off limits to U.S. munitions exports since 76.
33:19When Carter accused Pinochet of using death squads.
33:20Play the rest.
33:21This is where we started losing money.
33:22No.
33:23This is where we started losing money.
33:24We've been wrecking the game.
33:25I don't know.
33:26I don't know.
33:27I'm sorry.
33:28I don't know.
33:29I don't know.
33:30I don't know.
33:31If you're on the road.
33:32I don't know.
33:33He's running guns.
33:35Maybe.
33:36Chili's been off limits to U.S. munitions exports since 76.
33:42When Carter accused Pinochet of using death squads.
33:46Play the rest.
33:49Yeah, this is where we started, Louisa.
33:52We should run it through special operations.
33:54Maybe they can sweeten the audio.
33:56It's worth a shot.
33:58Push it.
33:59Stop acting like an old lady.
34:01You have been well paid.
34:04Not if I do time as an accessory to murder one.
34:08And who am I supposed to have killed now?
34:11Did you really think that they would buy that Ramon did himself?
34:16Your guilty conscience is a heavy burden, friend.
34:20They have nothing.
34:24Well, they've got something.
34:28I don't know what it is.
34:29When the cops slipped, they tried to cover it up.
34:33I know something.
34:35I bet my life on it.
34:37If you cross me,
34:40it'll be a bet you're going to lose.
34:45I have nothing to worry about.
34:49I'm leaving in the country before they can do anything.
34:51When are you leaving?
34:54Tomorrow.
34:55Four o'clock.
34:57Shaw care.
34:58Don't miss it.
34:59The report says that they cut out all the highs
35:09and added some base response.
35:13Let's see what we got here.
35:15We'll just barely make it out.
35:18Is the order filled?
35:20All but the specialty item.
35:22Other toys will be shipped.
35:23The load should reach Puerto Barrios in Guatemala
35:27four to six weeks.
35:28After that, you're on your own.
35:30And the CBUs.
35:33They say CBUs?
35:34That's what I'm talking about.
35:46Weeks after that, you're on your own.
35:48And the CBUs.
35:50It's a CBU.
35:58Canisterized bomblet units.
36:02Cluster bombs.
36:05In country, the VC called them bombies.
36:10We called them baseballs of death.
36:12The U.S. halted their arms shipment to Chile in 1976.
36:24Since then, they've developed their own heavy weapons industry
36:27with customers like Iran and Iraq.
36:31The chief export is cluster bombs.
36:33So why is Guerrero pulling out all the stops for these
36:37if he can get them at home?
36:38I'm not sure.
36:41You think this could be news to Brody
36:43and the other DEA?
36:45I don't want to tip her hand
36:47to find out where Brody stands.
36:50It's my feeling he's a rogue
36:52and the DEA doesn't know a thing about it.
36:54What's this?
36:58An ex-company munitions expert.
37:01He might have a personal interest in this.
37:05I want the rest of you to concentrate on Stiles.
37:08He's got five outstanding warrants.
37:11All we have on him is some phone calls from a hotel.
37:16Divide them up and run them down.
37:19We're running out of time.
37:20It's enough shrapnel to take out a tank.
37:32Pretty amazing, huh?
37:33Just a couple hundred years ago,
37:35we're still throwing stones.
37:37Yeah, wonderful progress we're making, isn't it?
37:40Yeah.
37:41That's the genuine item.
37:43Dead, of course.
37:45Yeah, well, uh, the lieutenant said
37:47you might have a personal interest in these things.
37:50Well, that's not hard to figure, huh?
37:52I mean, the sleeper version of that
37:54is what bought me this chair.
37:57The sleeper?
37:58Yeah, it's a new, improved version.
38:00It lays dormant in the ground until stepped on.
38:04Dude, there's nothing like hearing that click
38:06and knowing that your next step is gonna be your last.
38:09So, uh,
38:11these guys don't know the difference
38:14between, uh, soldiers and non-combatants.
38:16Is that what you're telling me?
38:17Exactly.
38:19Strictly anti-personnel.
38:21They've been outlawed in 20 countries.
38:23And many of their victims are children.
38:26After I lost these,
38:28I came back,
38:29I started running point against Washington,
38:31trying to get the U.S. to stop building them.
38:36I'm having a problem with something.
38:38How come
38:39if Chili is the biggest exporter of these guys,
38:45how come Guerrera wants a U.S. model?
38:48Ah, Chili doesn't have the sleeper version.
38:52Very difficult to manufacture.
38:54And Guerrera knows
38:56this is the hot ticket in the Middle East.
39:00If they could build a better mousetrap...
39:14The alcohol.
39:16Oh, another alcohol service.
39:19Ah, this guy Stiles.
39:22He's in his room four days,
39:23sends out repeats on nine times hookers twice.
39:27Guess who Stiles called last week?
39:30Get a warrant.
39:30Any other leaks?
39:33I'm working on this 904 area code.
39:37Yeah.
39:39Yeah, no, no, Stiles.
39:41I'm working on this.

42:12Expensive, but worth it.
42:17You have left.
42:18I have.
42:18I don't know.
42:24I won't have no telling me
42:27I was your
42:29She saidpartum in your number
42:32She said you can be what you want to be
42:38But you can't take the course of your destiny
42:43No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
42:53I can't break away
42:55No, no, no, no, no, no
42:59I can't, I can't, I can't break away
43:08The man is a major U.S. asset in Latin America
43:15He's a sadistic headcase who also happens to be running an off-the-books deal for cluster bombs
43:21What? What did you say?
43:24What the hell is he talking about?
43:27Talking about a gunrunner by the name of Stiles
43:29One of the six countries, look familiar?
43:35Yeah
43:35Mm-hmm
43:36He's an ex-ATF agent, used to work for you when you were with alcohol, tobacco, and firearms
43:43And, um, I don't suppose you've seen him since, right?
43:49No
43:49No, of course not
43:51So the phone call he made to you at your home last week must have been a wrong number
43:56Look
43:59Guerrero helps us out sometimes
44:03He was having some trouble getting some small arms
44:05There's an embargo
44:06Mm-hmm
44:07So you put him next to Stiles?
44:10Yeah
44:11He helps us take out the garbage sometimes
44:14Well, your buddy
44:17Stole a CBU sleeper unit
44:20From Eccles
44:22We wouldn't have known about it
44:23Except for, uh, Guerrero's got a horn for hookers
44:27We figure he's gonna get out with it sometime today
44:30What's his exit point?
44:32I don't know what the hell you're talking about
44:34I'm talking about four or five thousand dollar CDs placed in your account
44:38By an S. Stiles
44:40It's all legal
44:47We have a warrant
44:49You can either talk to us or you can talk to the U.S. attorney
44:54Anybody else at DEA in on this?
45:06The way I see it
45:07You got one chance to beat hard time as a co-conspirator
45:13I don't think so
45:15Why don't you lie?
45:16What's his proposal?
45:18Well, I'm nobody
45:28No, I mean
45:29I'm not
45:35No!
45:38No, no
