01x08 - A Good Friend is Worth More Than Gold

Post by bunniefuu »

Look, there's a method.

TWO YEARS AGO

Put the wide part in front,

and then around back.

It passes the front again,

then up through the backyard

and down into the hole.

- [Kevin chuckles]

- Tied up, and ready.

- That's it.

- [loud crash]

- Hey! Get back!

- [man 1] Stop right there!

- [Pedro] Easy! Easy!

- [man 1] Don't move!

- [cop 1] Get down!

- Just take it easy.

[cop 2] Get on the f*cking ground!

- Don't try sh*t! On the f*cking ground!

- Okay, man! Okay, okay!

[Ana] Kevin! It's okay.

- [cop 3] Get up! Move!

- [Ana] Okay, okay, okay.

[Ana grunts, breathes heavily]

- [g*n c*ck]

- [cop 3] Take him outside.

[cop 1] Come on. Up you go!

[cop 3] Let's go!

- [Ana grunts]

- [cop 2] Stay down.

[tense music playing]

[footsteps departing]

[breathlessly] You all right, son?

You okay, Kevin? Don't worry, okay?

[pants]

Pedro!

- [cop 2] Back inside!

- [vehicle doors closing]

[mellow reggaeton music playing]

[lyrics in Spanish]

A GOOD FRIEND IS WORTH MORE THAN GOLD

BASED ON REAL EVENTS

[Panda] How much does a plane ticket cost?

MODIFIED FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE AND OURS

[Kevin] Depends where you wanna go.

Just far.

A ton of dough, anyway.

[Panda] If you could,

would you wanna leave?

Yeah.

And you?

Where would we go?

We'll see.

But we're outta here.

[reggaeton music fading in]

Deal?

Deal.

[music drowns out background]

[music fades]

[birds chirping]

[suspenseful music playing]

[Kevin groans]

[sighs] f*cking damn it.

[g*n c*ck]

This is how I wanted you, bro.

What do you mean?

Get down.

- On the ground.

- What are you gonna do to me?

On the ground, as*h*le.

[Kevin breathing anxiously]

[birds squawking]

[music builds]

Don't do this, bro.

[music swells]

[g*n clicks]

[Panda laughing]

It isn't loaded.

[chuckles]

[continues chuckling]

Come on, dude.

[chuckles]

What's that for?

[chuckles] Now, f*ck.

All right.

[tender music playing]

Did you get run over?

[both chuckle]

Almost.

- [chuckles]

- [Kevin] You've changed, man.

People change, brah.

[Kevin chuckles softly]

[Panda sighs]

I'm a dad.

[chuckles softly]

That is incredible.

I don't get it.

How many times

do I really have to tell you?

I've tried to cooperate.

I've given you

all of the information I have.

I swear. I've given you everything I can.

I don't know what else to tell you.

I don't have anything to do

with Kevin Tapia.

[footsteps approach]

Hello, Ana. How nice to see you.

Was asking your daughter-in-law

about how she visited Kevin in jail.

[Ana] Well, that's no crime.

I'm only here to visit my grandson.

Do you mind?

- How are you?

- I would like to make something clear.

If you really don't want any trouble,

you'll cooperate.

Were I to find out you had anything to do

with Kevin getting out of here,

I'll have you both arrested.

So I'll ask you again.

Do you know where Kevin is?

[tense music playing]

When are you going to leave her alone?

Why don't you leave Génesis in peace?

She had a baby. You think Kevin

is hiding under her pillow?

I imagine, if you want Kevin alive,

you'll advise him

to surrender as fast as he can.

Because we're not the only ones

looking for him.

[tense music continues]

[reporter] Kevin Tapia, better known

as the "Baby Bandito," after he left

[Amador] You don't think. I think.

You take action. Got it?

I want you combing the streets

until you find that f*cking kid.

Don't you dare come back empty-handed.

You got that?

[Pablo] Can I help?

What are you doing here?

You should be at school.

- Mom let me miss class. My stomach hurts.

- [Natalia] Didn't you say you were sick?

- Go lie down.

- [Pablo] Mom!

[Amador] Do what she says.

You're not my dad, Grandpa.

'Cause your father's in jail.

He's gonna be there a long time.

This is my house.

I make the rules, and you do as I say.

[Natalia] I'll handle this.

[Pablo] How long are you gonna

treat me like a little kid?

Because you are a little kid.

[Pablo] Maybe.

Or maybe I'm destined

to become an animal, like you all did.

[somber music playing]

[footsteps departing]

Put the heat on his mother.

Maybe that'll point us

to the son of a b*tch.

[door opens]

I'm glad you came.

Does he look like Kevin?

Cut the bullshit and tell me where he is.

His father was just k*lled in prison.

If he doesn't show up,

do you think this little one

is gonna be safe?

Giovanni.

Who?

Giovanni is your grandson's name.

[Ana exhales]

[birds twittering]

Damn, brother.

I was f*ck' hungry.

[Panda chuckles]

What are friends for, huh?

[Kevin] Um

Panda, I

I'm sorry, brother.

But for what?

For what I did.

I ran off, and I left all of you.

[sniffs] That was shitty of me.

[Panda] Whatever, man. It doesn't matter.

Maybe the old Panda

would've let it get to him.

But for the Panda of the future,

the Panda of the future's

looking right at it, bro.

What, you don't believe me?

[both chuckle]

"The Panda of the future"?

[laughs] No, it's just that, to me,

you'll always be "little Panda."

- [Panda laughs]

- My little brother.

Who's afraid of spiders

and doesn't know how to skate.

Oh, what are you saying

about my skateboarding?

- [Kevin chuckles softly]

- Let's go.

I bet I can kick your a*s.

[laughing]

Okay, how much?

I've got your f*ck' bet.

You have the money?

[scoffs]

Who else would, bro?

Your friend.

And

what are you gonna do?

[Panda] Hmm.

[ominous music playing]

[woman] Sweetie, time to get up.

Come on. Wakey.

Look what they brought you.

Aren't they beautiful, your flowers?

Thanks.

Look.

[Génesis sighs]

SEE YOU IN UNDERGROUND PARKING -4

K

[nurse] Be careful.

I'll bring you your son a bit later.

- [open door alert beeping]

- [door closes]

[tender electronic music playing]

What are you thinking?

Let's run for it.

The three of us.

The cash is with Panda.

I'll ask him to give me a few million,

and that'll get us outta here.

Kevin, they are looking

for you everywhere.

Yes, I know.

Let's escape all this mess

and start again together.

I'll meet you later.

At 7:00.

Okay.

- At 7:00?

- Yes.

[chuckles]

[dramatic music playing]

I love you, princessa.

I love you, Baby Bandito.

[both chuckle]

[door opens]

[Kevin chuckles]

[chuckles]

[chuckling]

[dramatic music continues]

- [keys jangle]

- [engine starts]

[music fades]

[emergency brake clicks]

Kevin.

Oh.

[Ana sobs] Where is he, Héctor?

- [soft music playing]

- [Ana sobbing]

[crying]

[breath trembling]

[sobbing]

[whimpers softly]

We're going to find him, okay?

[Ana sobs, sniffles]

Come inside.

[exhales shakily, clears throat]

[footsteps approaching]

[Panther] I don't want

to hurt either of you.

Then don't do it, Héctor.

[Panther] You have to trust me.

But why should I trust you now?

Again?

Okay, you're right.

But I won't leave you alone.

- [Ana scoffs softly]

- [nearby clatter]

[tense music playing]

[tense music building]

So you're playing house

with baby face's little mother?

[music fades]

It must have been tough,

raising your son

with his father's best friend.

Your son who's now

about to be found by the cops,

thanks to some truly fatherly guidance.

[bottle clinks]

Or, even worse

[Panther scoffs]

about to be found by the Butchers.

[bottle cap clacks, clatters]

[Mística] That's why

we're gonna look for him.

[bottle opener shuffling, clatters]

[Ana] I don't know where he is.

[bottle clinks]

You're lying.

[bottle cap clacks, clatters]

[tense pulsating music playing]

Well, this can be good,

or this can be bad.

I want my money, and you two want Kevin.

If we don't find him, someone else will.

So now, it's your decision.

Do you want him dead or alive?

Well I might know where he is.

See?

See how productive it is

to talk things out?

Hmm. You make a cute couple.

[tense music fades]

[meat sizzling]

[birds chirping]

[footsteps approaching]

[chuckles]

If it isn't Baby Bandito.

- In Italy, there's no asado.

- [Panda] We're in Chile, man.

Here, move this.

What's that?

[Panda] It's for your son, dude.

[tender music playing]

[knife slicing]

Man.

"Giovanni Tapia Roca."

[chuckles softly]

What do you think?

[Panda] He looks like you, man.

Beautiful.

[Kevin chuckles]

Hey, bro [clears throat]

I'm going with Génesis.

She's the love of my life, man.

And now we're three, I have to start over.

A long way from here.

You think I could borrow

some money from you?

[Panda] Mm.

Salud.

[Kevin chuckles softly]

- Yeah, man.

- Because you ate meat.

[both chuckle]

- [Panda] Hey, Pablito. What up?

- [Pablo] All good, man.

- [Panda] Do you ever lose at Partia, bro?

- [chuckles]

[both chuckle]

This is Kevin.

This is Pablito, an epic gamer.

You're famous.

[chuckles]

- [Panda] C'mon on, dude. Grab a brewski.

- [Pablo] Okay.

[unsettling music playing]

[Panda] And how's Partia?

- [chuckles]

- [Pablo] All cool.

Okay, there's no turning back now.

Are you sure you wanna do this?

- Send it.

- You better not screw me over.

[tense music playing]

[cell phone beeps]

[cell phone chimes]

[chimes]

[dramatic sting]

[breathing heavily]

[whimpers]

[mutters] No.

[anxiously] Dad.

[breathing heavily]

Dad! [sobs]

"This is Kevin Tapia."

"We have Pablo.

Get here, or we'll k*ll him."

[Natalia's breath trembles]

[Amador] That m*therf*cker.

[phone clatters]

[indistinct chatter]

[slow suspenseful music playing]

[music fades]

[objects clatter gently]

Who is that f*ck?

A friend, bro. Relax.

You tell him about the robbery?

[sighs] C'mon, it's Pablito.

You think he's gonna do something?

All he can do is game, dude.

[Kevin inhales deeply]

Brother

I just need to go, be freed of all this.

- Give me that money when you can, bro.

- [chuckles softly]

Okay.

You serious, bro?

This is what you wanted, no?

Go off with your girl?

[car approaching]

- What's going on?

- That's for being a f*cking traitor, man!

[Panda panting]

[dramatic music playing]

- [Kevin] What the f*ck are you doing here?

- Are you okay?

- What are you guys doing here?

- [Ana] Just stop all that, Kevin.

[breathes anxiously]

f*ck, man. We f*cked up.

- [Kevin] I don't know!

- Relax, Kevin. Listen.

Panda! I swear,

I didn't tell them anything, dude.

[Ana] What is it?

[Mística grunts]

m*therf*cker. [sighs]

[banknotes flutter]

[dramatic music continues]

[Ana] Calm down.

You f*cked us. Where's the money?

- Who's the as*h*le

- [Panther] Hey!

- Huh? f*ck you!

- [Ana] Hey!

The one who has it is Panda!

- [Mística breathes heavily]

- [Panther] Easy. Easy.

[Ana] Get off! Get off him!

Stop! Leave him alone!

- Come on!

- [cars approaching]

- [dramatic music playing]

- [Mística] sh*t.

[gasps]

- Oh sh*t.

- It's a trap.

- Let's move.

- Get inside now. Get in! Get in!

[dramatic sting]

[car doors opening]

[menacing music playing]

[car door closes]

Kevin Tapia!

Hear this, you m*therf*cking as*h*le.

How much you want for Pablo?

[whispers] Who the hell is Pablo?

[breathes heavily] A friend of Panda.

Show yourself, f*ck.

I'm talking to you, son of a b*tch.

Are you trying to get yourself m*rder*d?

[Mística] We have to do something.

They'll mow us down in here.

[whispers] Héctor!

[door release squeaks]

- [Kevin] What is he doing?

- [Ana] Sh! Héctor!

[whispering] Hey! Don't you hear me?

Stay inside, damn it! Stay here!

- I said stay here!

- [Kevin] Let me go.

I think I remember your son.

What was his name?

Some dog name, right?

Mongrel.

Chihuahua. [chuckles]

f*ck. What was it?

Ah! Greyhound.

Damn, I enjoyed putting a few shots

in that as*h*le.

And you know what? He begged me, man.

Started crying,

pleading like a f*cking p*ssy. [laughs]

He had your same eyes.

Quite a resemblance.

I tossed him off that bridge myself.

He died like a f*cking dog.

Fitting, isn't it?

[g*ns c*ck]

I'll cut out your tongue, you moron.

Hand over Pablo.

Get as far as you can.

Far from here, son.

[somber music playing]

[Panther whispers] Forgive me.

[strained breathing]

[Kevin] I'm the only one

who needs to apologize, not you.

I love you, Dad.

[crying]

[distant siren wailing]

[Ana] No, no. No, no, no, no, no. No.

It's okay.

[siren growing louder]

[lyrics in Spanish]

My name is Kevin Tapia,

but now, everyone knows me

as "Il Baby Bandito."

[Kevin panting]

I was born in Santiago de Chile,

raised in the hood, and I know the street.

They say money can't buy happiness.

- [throws wallet]

- But whoever said that was never poor.

Opportunity makes the thief,

and well I became more

than just Kevin Tapia.

Now the whole world knows who I am.

- [Giovanni babbles]

- I always knew destiny would take me far.

And I did it.

Now I'm far away from my son,

far away from the woman I love

GÉNESIS ROCA ACCUSES BABY BANDITO

OF ABANDONMENT: "I'M A SINGLE MOM"

and far away from everyone

who trusted me.

[indistinct chatter]

[softly] I'm sorry.

[Kevin] I pray they can forgive me one day

and that the tragedy

doesn't become who they are.

[muffled scream]

[camera shutter clicks]

PANDA TURNS HIMSELF IN

[Kevin] Just a few months ago,

I thought no glory could be without fame.

But now I wonder,

what's the glory that really matters?

[cell door clangs]

"THE RUSSIAN" SPEAKS FROM JAIL

"JUSTICE ALWAYS PREVAILS"

The glory of being who we really are?

The glory of recognition for our work?

SORAYA JADUE,

HEIST OF THE CENTURY PROSECUTOR:

"WHITE-COLLAR CRIMINALS

ARE THE NATION'S REAL THIEVES."

The glory of overcoming pain?

GLORY MEATPACKING BECOMES A MATRIARCHY

FOUNDER'S DAUGHTER NEW CHAIRPERSON

Or of earning your family's love?

Finally being free?

WHERE'S THE RES

OF THE HEIST-OF-THE-CENTURY g*ng?

- [likes chiming]

- Or being content with very little?

- [music continues]

- [camera clicks]

My name is Kevin Tapia,

and if I know one thing,

after everything that I've been through,

it's that life always

gives you another opportunity.
