Queen of the South (2016–…): Season 3, Episode 13 - El Mundo - full transcript

Reeling from a surprise attack, Teresa makes a bold move to seize the throne.

TERESA: Previously on
"Queen of the South"...

I want you to be part
of the business.

-Would you die for me?
-I'll survive for you.

What is this?
I never signed this paper.

Camila's trying to set
you up to take the fall

for her business.

I'm leaving Camila.
Starting off on my own.

Big britches you're
trying to fill, girl.

I know the risks.

TERESA: You tried
to set me up,

but we can still make a deal.



The only deal that goes on here
will put you in the grave.

(gunshot)
(groans)

CAMILA: I picked you.
I housed you.

I protected you.
You kill Epifanio.

CAMILA: You're gonna watch
the love of your life die

a slow and painful death.

GUERO: (screaming)

Okay, he's not breathing.
Guero.

You killed the man
that Teresa loved.

I'm here for a truce.
Teresa's business is stalled.

She needs my connection.

She's not gonna want your help.

She needs it.
And I certainly need hers.

CAMILA: It's the only way
to save my daughter.



I can set up the introduction
with the Colombians.

What do you want in return?

I want you to kill Cortez.

You need more men.

POTE: That's why we contacted
Javier Jimenez, Boaz's cousin.

(suspenseful music)

I'm rolling the dice on you,
Teresa.

Together we can win.
We will run Phoenix.

TERESA: We have a snitch.

POTE: You don't think--James?

I found the mole.

JAMES: I can't work
for someone

who keeps questioning
my loyalty.

JAMES: Not after all
we've been through.

I wanna help you
take out Cortez

and make sure you're secure,
but then I'm out.

TERESA: They put a tracker
in Guero's necklace.

Can we use this?

IVAN: To track someone?
Absolutely.

IVAN: Bueno?

TERESA: You have
something I want,

and I have something you want.
Let's make a deal.

*

(indistinct chatter)

(dramatic music)

*

The shipment looks good.
200 kilos, as promised.

50 are yours.

That's twice what
we talked about.

You got into this business
to help your tribe survive.

TERESA: If you agree to leave
in five years,

I'll double your pay
until then.

*

You have my word.

But I wouldn't count
on the General's.

TAZA: And Cortez
is slippery as a snake.

You have a deal with him now,
but odds are it won't last.

You should take precautions.

*

TERESA: How are you?

Things went smooth at the port.

That's not what I meant.

I buried Bilal at sea.

*

That's what he
would have wanted.

GEORGE: We both buried
family in this war.

The ones we chose.

GEORGE: Feels harder.
-It does.

GEORGE: Cortez needs to die.

*

Y'all find him yet?

*

JAMES: This is a long shot.

JAMES: For all we know,
Cortez found the medallion

the second he laid
eyes on Camila.

She could be lying dead
in a ditch somewhere.

My family wouldn't shed a tear,

and neither would Teresa.

Reynaldo Fieto would,
he's the new connect.

So we need to keep
an eye on Camila

and make sure she's alive.

Entiendes?

(speaking Spanish)

Eh, look at you
with the español.

*

JAMES: We're getting closer.

If this works, we'll hit Cortez
before he knows what's coming.

*

CORTEZ: (sighs)

CORTEZ:
(speaking Spanish)

I don't know how you do it.

CORTEZ: Even in captivity,
you remain so very lovely.

Even more lovely, perhaps.

(speaking Spanish)

*

(speaking Spanish)

*

You made me pozole once.

You told me we were family.

*

Would you like to make pozole
for me again, Camila?

I know you would give it
that perfect flavor.

*

I know what you do to your
big times, like Batman.

*

You don't scare me, Alberto.

*

Brave words

from a woman in captivity.

I want to see my daughter.

Bring her to me.

You want to double
the ingredients?

What a fine idea.

I'll be happy to accommodate
your request.

(speaking Spanish)

(cell phone vibrating)

(speaking Spanish)

(phone vibrating)

*

Hola, Teresa.

TERESA: We just received
your delivery.

I take it all was in order.

Yes, it was.

George will oversee
the transport through Mexico.

I'm glad to hear our prisoner
exchange has worked out

as well for you
as it has for me.

I guaranteed the Colombians
Camila's safety.

If something happens to her,
we both lose our product.

Camila is exactly
where she should be.

Reynaldo has nothing to fear.

(phone clicks)

Heads up.
We got trouble.

(tires squealing)

Shit.

(suspenseful music)

(indistinct chatter)

Damn it!

*

POTE: We're surrounded.

GEORGE: There's no
way out of this.

-You know her?
-No.

If it was a ambush they would
have already hit us by now.

If we run, they will follow.

POTE: We need to do this.

We'll cover you.

(gun cocking)

(car doors closing)

I'm Castel Fieto.

You made a deal with my uncle,
but not with me.

Is el Reynaldo in charge
of your family?

He is.
For now.

Hey.

Let me be frank with you,
Teresa.

It's okay.

CASTEL: Camila and Reynaldo
are dinosaurs,

the way they run
their business.

I have connections
in government.

With politicians.

Investments far beyond
the realm of cocaine.

CASTEL: Your innovations with
product and distribution,

cryptocurrency--

You know a lot
about my business.

CASTEL: Like I said,
I have connections.

And that's my point.

Camila and Reynaldo,
they...

They don't know technology
like we do.

CASTEL: They're the past,
and you and I,

we're the future.

You didn't come all the way
from Bogotá to praise me.

(dramatic music)

CASTEL: You struck
a dangerous deal.

The only true way
to power is violence.

And Cortez,
he won't hesitate to use it.

He delights in it,
like a child with a plaything.

He knows what's at stake.
He won't hurt Camila.

CASTEL: But he will harm you.

Look how easily I got to you.

My spies inside the General's
organization say

he's already planning it.

A strike against you
is imminent.

*

JAMES: There he is.
The tracker worked.

JAVIER: I say we
raid the place.

Knock those stars right
off the General's shoulder.

Along with his pinche cabeza.

JAMES: I had a run-in
with Cortez once.

JAMES: His time will come.

JAMES: But we wait
for Teresa's orders.

(car door closes)

There's Isabela.
Camila's here.

(dramatic music)

*

(door unlocking)

(door closes)

*

Are you okay?

Did he hurt you?

(softly) No.

But you did.

I did not order Kique's death.

You have to believe me,
Isabela.

*

I don't care
if I die right now.

As long as you understand that.

I know I hurt you.

I just wish you
could forgive me.

CORTEZ: Careful what
you wish for, Camila.

Even if your daughter
does forgive you,

doesn't mean that justice
is served for Kique.

CAMILA: Isabela...

*

(blade scrapes)

(gun cocking)

CAMILA: No.

*

CORTEZ: An eye for an eye.

Look at me.

CORTEZ: The Bible says...
-Don't listen to him.

What do you think
God would want in exchange

for the life of the man
your daughter loved?

Don't listen to him, Isabela.
Look at me.

Now is the time for vengeance.

He lied.

CORTEZ: Because of her,
you have no father.

No husband.

*

She's given you
nothing but pain.

Don't listen to him.

On your knees.

*

Now.

*

ISABELA: You have to pay
for what you did to Kique.

*

ISABELA: I don't believe you.

*

(gun clicks)

CORTEZ: (chuckles)

*

How truly disappointing.

*

-You failed me, Isa!
-Let her go.

*

ISABELA: (groans)

This is between us, Alberto.

*

I tried to protect you both.

I had so many plans for us.

CORTEZ: For a single moment
I just felt like

we would be a family.

But...

*

(sighs)

CORTEZ: She made her choice.

*

CORTEZ: Like mother,
like daughter.

CAMILA: You will have
to kill me first.

CORTEZ: Fine.

*

Reynaldo will blame you.

*

CORTEZ: (speaking Spanish)

(door opens and closes)

I'm so sorry.

It's okay.

ISABELLA: He made me
believe that.

-I know.
-And he gave me the gun.

ISABELA: (crying)

I'll go check on the load.

(door closes)

(indistinct chatter)

(car door closes)

We're gonna need more soldiers.

POTE: If Cortez makes his move,
like la Colombiana said,

we've gotta be ready.

What?
You don't believe her?

TERESA: I do.

What I don't understand
is why she would warn me.

She needs you in Phoenix.

She wants something else.

GEORGE: Yo, principessa.

We got a problem.

(dramatic music)

*

POTE: Don't tell me.
Cortez tried to short us.

*

It ain't under.
It's over.

GEORGE: Nine kilos.
-Nine kilos?

POTE: You sure?
GEORGE: Yep.

No one goes over that much.

*

Pote, move away.
Everybody move away now!

POTE: Go!

(explosion)

(laughter, chatter)

They're celebrating.

JAVIER: Maybe Cortez took out
Camila and her daughter.

(indistinct chatter)

No, he wouldn't ruin his
deal with the Colombians.

It's gotta be something else.

(dramatic music)

*

GEORGE: You're gonna
be all right.

POTE: (coughing)

GEORGE: Pote, that shit
was too on the money.

GEORGE: Someone's
got a detonator.

POTE: (groans)
GEORGE: Get him in.

GEORGE: Teresa all right?

(engine starts)

(speaking Spanish)

(coughing)

(cell phone buzzing)

TERESA: Yeah.
-Are you all right?

Cortez hid a bomb
in the shipment.

-Is anyone hurt?
TERESA: Yeah.

TERESA: There were
a few injuries.

George took them to the clinic.

JAMES: We need to attack
Cortez right now.

We don't have any
more time to wait.

Go now.

Tell your men to gear up.

JAVIER: (speaking Spanish)

(gun clicks)

(cell phone buzzing)

Bueno.

OJOS: (speaking Spanish)

(speaking Spanish)

CORTEZ: (speaking Spanish)

*

After the distraction,
I'm gonna take two soldiers

and breach
the southern perimeter.

(speaking Spanish)

What are you planning
for a distraction?

Well, Cortez sent
a Trojan horse.

So he's gonna get one
in return.

*

(shouting in Spanish)

*

(engine starts)

(dramatic music)

*

MAN: Come on, here we go!

(speaking Spanish)

(gunfire)

(explosion)

(screaming)

(gunfire)

(grunts)

(gunfire)

(grunting)

*

(beeping)

*

(beeping)
(explosion)

JAMES: Let's go.

(gun cocking)

*

(footsteps approaching)

TERESA: What is it?
POTE: It's right out there.

(gunfire)
POTE: Go!

(gunfire)

(speaking Spanish)

(shouting)

(gunfire)

*

You led Teresa's people here.

I don't know what
you're talking about.

No?

(suspenseful music)

*

CORTEZ: A GPS tracker?

You think you're so smart.

You and Teresa
working together.

*

There'll be a reckoning
when this is all over.

I assure you.

(speaking Spanish)

*

TERESA: I think we lost him.
-Then we find him.

We cannot let him go.
He'll come back and finish us.

POTE: (grunts)

(dramatic music)

(all speaking Spanish)
(gunfire)

Go, go!

(gunfire)
(shouting)

TINA: (speaking Spanish)

(gunfire)

Hey, we gotta move.
We don't have time.

(speaking Spanish)

(gunfire)

Here.

(speaking Spanish)

(gunfire)

*

(explosion)

*

(gunfire)

Go!

TERESA: (breathing heavy)

(gunfire)

POTE: (grunts)

We gotta move.

POTE: On three I'm gonna fire
and you're gonna run.

POTE: Ready?
-Okay.

One, two, go!

(gunfire)

POTE: (grunting)

Pinche cabron is starting
to piss me off.

(gunfire)
(grunts)

(gunfire)

Go!

(gunfire)

(gunfire)

(empty clicking)

(gunfire)

*

(gunfire)

*

Let's finish this.

*

(shouting in Spanish)

*

POTE: Teresa!

*

(horn honking)

MAN: (shouts)
(crashing)

(honking)

Where is he?

He's dead.

(cell phone vibrates)
-Yeah?

We're on the way
back to Phoenix now.

We've got Cortez.

JAMES: Bad news, though.

The soldiers moved Camila

before we could get her.

(car doors open and close)

(dramatic music)

*

JAMES: (grunts)
-(screams)

(groaning)

She has arrived.

CORTEZ: Ready to collect
your pound of flesh?

Let's not make this harder
than it has to be.

Call your men.

And tell them to bring Camila.

You think I'm a fool?

I know I'm already dead.

TERESA: You're right.

You're not leaving here alive,

but how you die is up to you.

*

Are you offering mercy?

I'm offering you a bullet.

You know the alternative.

*

You live by the sword,
die by the sword.

CORTEZ: I knew
this day was coming.

As for Camila,

you don't have to worry
about finding her.

CORTEZ: She'll find you.

I hope so.

*

(blows landing)
(shouting)

*

CAMILA: He's gonna help you
cross the border

and keep you safe
until I can come get you.

I don't wanna
leave without you.

-Isabela...
ISABELLA: Now's our chance.

We can escape all this.
Never look back.

As long as Teresa is alive,
we're always gonna have to be

looking over our shoulder.

I need to end this now.
Once and for all.

Then I'll stay until it's over.

No, you won't.

Isabela, listen to me.

CAMILA:
I love you very much.

This is the one chance
I have to do things right.

Please, don't take
that away from me.

(dramatic music)

*

CAMILA: Go.

*

(engine turns over, car starts)

*

MAN: (speaking Spanish)

*

(speaking Spanish)

How are you, muñequita?

CAMILA: Much better
now that we're safe.

Cortez did the wise thing
by calling us when he did.

He protected you.

Cortez was just
protecting his business.

If it was up to him,
Isabela and I would be dead.

REYNALDO: Nevertheless,
you're safe now.

Castel is on her way,
and with the men

that I sent you,

you can kill Teresa.

REYNALDO: And we can be
done with this pendejada

once and for all.

(blow lands)
JAMES: (shouts)

(speaking Spanish)

He looks tenderized
enough for you?

Not quite.

Everything's better with
a little more Tapatío.

(groans)

(spits)

JAVIER: Last chance, pendejo.

Where's Camila?

(speaking Spanish)

GEORGE: Seems you got
a problem, General.

*

If I remember correctly,
isn't that what you said

Bilal had?

GEORGE: You helped him out
with a little procedure.

Now it seems like maybe
you could benefit

from the very same thing.

Only, uh, I'm gonna use
a different scalpel.

BOAZ: (speaking Spanish)

You raped and pillaged
your way to the top.

BOAZ: You enjoyed feasting
on the hearts of your enemies.

And now I--
we're gonna take yours.

*

See you in hell, pendejo.

(speaking Spanish)

(chainsaw revs)

(speaking Spanish)

BOAZ: I'll bring the tortillas.

(chainsaw revs)

-(screams)
BOAZ: (laughs)

(shouts)

(cell phone buzzing)

TERESA: Hello?

CASTEL: You survived
Cortez's strike.

I assume the General
wasn't as lucky.

He was not.

CASTEL: Now you control
the Phoenix corridor

all the way down to Sinaloa.

Smuggling and distribution.

CASTEL: You have my support,
Teresa.

There's just one more thing
that needs to be settled.

Camila.

She isn't far from Phoenix.

Send me your address
so I can make arrangements.

I thought your uncle
wanted to protect her.

CASTEL: My uncle and I don't
always agree on everything.

Camila's one of them.

I'm betting on you, Teresa.

(dramatic music)

JAMES: Giving us Camila

against her uncle's wishes.

Sounds like a setup to me.

I say we jump in
a pinche plane

and get the hell
out of here.

We have to do this.

*

(car doors opening and closing)

Time to settle accounts

once and for all.

(car door opens)

(dramatic music)

*

Just say the word

and I'll put
a bullet in her head.

Easy, gordo.

*

What about your uncle?

*

CASTEL: As far as he
and Camila know,

she was being taken
to a safe house.

I'll handle him.
Finish it.

*

(gun cocks)

*

-You brought this on yourself.
-Do it.

(dramatic music)

We would have ended up
in the same place, you know.

There can only
be one queen.

You think I'm competing
with you?

*

You've never known me
or understood who I am.

CAMILA: You tell yourself that.
I know the truth.

I knew it from the first
time I took you in.

I can see it in your eyes.

CAMILA: You're a wolf,
just like me.

I am nothing like you.

Oh, you don't see it now.
But you will in time.

CAMILA: And then
you'll understand

why I did what I did.

And you'll thank me.

Thank you?

Your ego is blind to all
the pain you have caused.

Even with a gun in my hand,

with every reason to kill you,

your arrogance still makes you
believe that you matter.

*

I allow you to become what
you always wanted to be.

You allow me?
Who are you to allow me?

Teresa...

-You're my greatest legacy.
-You are crazy.

*

(gunshot)

TERESA: You're gonna live
the rest of your life

as a fugitive
from your own country.

*

-I'm sending you into exile.
-Kill me now.

*

Or this won't be
the last time you see me--

It will

if you want
Isabela to live.

TERESA: Castel has her and is
keeping her safe for now.

You already destroyed her life.

You killed her innocence.

*

Try to make a move against me.

*

You know what will
happen to her.

*

(speaking Spanish)

*

(car door closes)

(car engine starts)

*

GEORGE: You eat people.
I heard this.

(laughter)
GEORGE: There she is.

Cortez is gone

and you have a deal
with the Colombians.

(Spanish music playing)

Gracias.

48 hours ago,
we didn't have a supplier.

GEORGE: Now we own the corridor
all the way from Sinaloa

down to Phoenix.

Salud.

all: Salud.

(glass clinking)

*

Can I have a word with you?

What is it?

Not here.

all: (speaking quietly)

JAMES: Look, I have to go.
You don't need me anymore.

JAMES: You have that army.

I'm sorry.

Don't be.

JAMES:
It's been a hell of a ride.

This is where I get off.

Your mind's made up?

JAMES: Yeah.

(dramatic music)

I'm gonna miss you.

*

I'll see you around.

TERESA: Take care of yourself.

*

You, too.

*

POTE: You're leaving us,
aren't you?

Gonna miss you, cabron.

(dramatic music)

Hey, you take care of her.

*

Always.

*

JAVIER: There he goes.

The second best shot in Mexico.

*

He's a good soldier.

*

He'll be hard to replace.

*

You know anyone
who might be interested?

*

I might know a guy.

*

He's not cheap.

*

DEVON: Teresa must really
be something special.

I was half expecting you
to run after my call.

I told her it was
my decision to leave.

I know you can't run
from the CIA.

How long have you known?

JAMES: The tracker you put
on Teresa's medallion,

the hit on El Santo.

One thing I can't figure out
is your connection

with the Colombians.

Castel, she work
for the agency?

She's an asset.

(dramatic music)

So that's why you
were hunting El Santo.

To take out the competition
for the Colombians.

DEVON: She's a friend
of the agency.

El Santo wasn't.

Killing him served
both our purposes.

And Teresa?

DEVON: Teresa will be safe
as long as she's useful to us.

You, on the other hand,
you're a liability.

That mess you made in Texas,

this is how we clean it up.

DEVON: You come with us
so you won't be able

to drag her down with you.

*

(somber singing)

*

(upbeat dramatic music)

*

-No, gracias.
-Take the pillow.

It's gonna be a long flight.

(speaking Spanish)

JAVIER: Mmm.
(speaking Spanish)

JAVIER: (grunts)

*

(speaking Spanish)

*

You say we have a long flight?

Where are we going?

You'll see.

*

(dramatic music)

*
