You have to deal with Vadim on this and it's not going to be very pleasant.
What a loser.
You're an imbecile.
Let's go, Adriana, we got things to do.
I'm leaving got to take care of buisness.
Hello! Welcome to the holiday inn, how may i help you?
I need two rooms if you got them.
Single or double, sir?

Sure, in the Business Center overthere.
The passwords are in here, right?
Would you like to pay on a credit card?
Excuse me, my wallet is here.
I'll be right back.
Ray... 2 pm
Here is your room key, you go up and get some rest.
I'll be in his office, i'm going overthere now.
Detective Sheridon, how exactly did you get involved in this case?
Well Ray normally works in insurance fraud.
But in resent vacation he bumped into this illegal...
Detective jefferson, no offence, but i like to hear the story from detective Sheridon himself.
The bottom line is, this girl will be auctioned off.....in a few hours,
And i need to know what you guys gonna do about that auction,
Look we've been monitering this group for quite some time.
We know where there Jersey operations are.
Ray, the real problem here is that this thing is global.
Even though this group might be based in mexico city, they have operations all over the U.S.
And all over every one of the Continents.
Their server for example, is located somewhere in Maldives.
Their banking in South Africa.
There is a lot of jurisdictions working here
Cia, state department, the interpol etc... etc...
So what we're doing is...follow the money, we connect the dots and we'll come up with the source.
I get all that, but you said you know where the operation is in New Jersey.
Yeah.
But you you can't be bothered to do anything about this one little Mexican girl,
You got bigger plans.
That's what you're saying, did i hear you wrong?
Well gentlemen, if you'll excuse me?
Thank you
We are the fucking gringos, aren't we?
Sorry?
I said we are the FUCKING GRINGO'S!
Hi Patty, some..um, maybe a few more days before I'll get home. But in the mean time I need to ask you a favour
Well I want to take a big chunk of money out of our savings.
But i don't wanna do it unless you say it's allright.
I guess I won't ask what it's for.
I'll tell you all about it when i get home, promise no more secrets.
Have you found her?
Karly?
Karly that's her name?
Yeah.
Ray... if you find your daughter, I want you to bring her home.
If I do, I will.
Patty... Yeah ?
Thank you
You shouldn't thank me for loving you, Ray.
Allright, bye.
Hey, hey, what's going on?
I got us some money, you and me gonna do the auction.
And what about your friend?
Forget about him.
You really got tell to me something Gringo.
Why are you doing this?
Who is she ?
It's my daughter.
Your daughter?
Yea.
This is what you've been looking for?
Well that picture was taken 10 years ago, I really don't know what I'm looking for.
I met her mother just after I was married.
To Patty my wife, and i was a happilly married man.
And then i met Ellenore, and everything changed. She was...
Oh she was so... wild and alive.
I don't know what I was expecting but i was ready to give up everything.
My marriage everything... Stupid!...Stupid...
And then she met this other guy and...
He was everything I wasn't, i mean... she found him exiting... and adventurous, alive...
Anyway and then she told to me, that she ......was pregnant with his child. And a...
That kind of did it, I left and a... went back to Patty
And Patty took you back?
Yeap.
Go figure.
That would never happen in Mexico.
Just a few days ago i get a knock at my door from a couple of officers and they told me that Ellenore has died
of an overdose.
And they found this letter in her apartment with my name on it.
That she's written 10 years before, but never sent.
And she says she needs money, and that karly is my daughter.
Which i always... wondered about.
You didn't know she had a daughter did you?
I did.
We had her in our sights for years
We helped her out all we could, but she was always in trouble
And the daughter?
In foster homes mostly, but I always managed to get her back.
After you.
She went over the border to Juarez about ten years ago.
Probably at the time when she wrote you that letter.
Was her daughter with her?
We have no idea.
We do know, when she got back here two years later,
The girl was gone.
And the Alma was still a mess. Did you a...
Did you ask her what happend to the daughter.
She told us that she left her with her daddy.
I think we knew then what kind of daddy she was talking about? But we couldn't prove anything, what are you talking about?
We think, she sold the girl Alma was a junkie, it happens.
She sold her.
If i... if i gotten that letter 10 years before, everything would be different.
Me and patty always wanted a child.
She's pretty, ain't she?
Yes, she has beautiful eyes.
Green.. Like her mothers.
So, that's what you where doing in the house in Juarez.
Well, by the time you climbed in to my trunk, i'd pretty much givin' up on everything.
But now i realize i gave up to soon. Which is something i do a lot of...
I guess.
Veronica, i hope, you are happy in heaven. If you can talk to Virgin Maria for me,
And ask her to have a good and kind person buy me at the auction.
I'm very scared. Please help me.
Be well.
It's started allready.

If you're not a cop it means, once you've been with her you wont talk.
But if you're a cop you wont fuck her and then you're fucking dead.
