CHANGE OF GOVERNMENT
This is a disaster!
Cut off an interstate highway on American soil?
Mazas, only for 4 hours.
We have a serious problem with the transport.
We'd need a ton of permits and by the time we got them
it would be too late.
Bego! Leave that mess for the next guys.
-Let me talk to the Minister. -What?
To the new Minister, whoever is in charge now, to explain personally...
The new Minister
takes office tomorrow. Look, Ventura.
They're moving us to a new department and we're slammed.
Stop bugging us with all this highway business.
Hey, hey. That stays too.
Always the same...
Lucía?
Hi, Alex. How are you?
Hi. Hi... fine.
What a surprise, I wasn't expecting...
Listen, you're at the hotel about to pick up the treasure, right?
Yeah, we start tomorrow. Right now that's all we know for sure...
The Ministry told me to supervise the Numismatics team.
What do you think?
-Really?-Yeah.
You mean you'd come here?
-Of course. -But you'd have to get a flight
right away. We don't have much time...
-Look outside. -I could use your help...
-What?-Look outside.
Over here!
Hi, altar boy.
Look, what are we?
What?
-No, not here... -What are we?
Civil servants!
Damn!
I can't believe it.
Where do we get hundreds of buckets like these?
And the saline solution?
Awesome!
Say hello!
The crabs, right?
The little crabbies!
Alex, can I ask you a question?
At this hour? Will it keep me up all night?
Why...
Why were you so boring?
Boring? Me? When?
I send you a message saying happy birthday and you answer: "Thanks."
-It blew me away. -Right.
If you only knew how much I thought about that message...
But it felt like a normal answer, right?
There wasn't
much more to say.
I mean, we were honest with each other back in the day and...
we both went our own way.
It was very hard for me to get over it, Lucía.
Very hard.
I know.
But...
like you said once, my whole life is ahead of me.
And I'm working on it.
Growing up.
Look, Alex, I...
Shit! I have to go back to my room, I need to make
a couple of calls, okay? -Okay.
-Get some rest. -You too.
What is this?
Drive, drive, drive...
Damn.
Lord have mercy!
Wait, wait.
By straining them, like garbanzo beans.
We count one bucket and calculate the rest by weight.
We could go full speed,
right?
Let's go!
Natalia, go to a store and buy kitchen strainers.
How do you say it in English?
And get big ones.
Alex, are you staying?
I'll be right there. I have to try one last play.
Lucía.
Thanks.
"Thanks."
See how boring you are?
Yes, Mazas. We're moving everything up 24 hours.
We need the Hercules' at the base in Atlanta tomorrow morning.
Okay.
Seven point eight.
Six point three.
-How many blocks left? -Seven.
Eight point three.
Four point three.
Ten.
Ten point seven.
Five blocks left.
Damn.
Girls, keep going.
Lucía.
How many buckets are left?
I'll check.
Okay, see you in a few hours.
Enjoy your last cigarette before bed.
I quit smoking, you didn't realize.
That's right.
That's not the only thing I quit.
A couple of weeks ago I broke up with...
Well, let's just say...
I've stopped worrying so much about
my future.
What do you mean by that?
That I'd like to...
I don't know, take a chance.
With whatever comes.
With you.
Wow.
Yeah.
-You weren't expecting it. -No.
I mean...
No.
I have some crackers
in my room...
I don't know, if you want
some dinner or...
-Damn! -You're definitely hungry.
I was playing hard to get.
What do you mean, walk away?
Take a year off, maybe.
I've been at the Ministry for a long time, Alex. Non-stop.
I need...
to do nothing.
You say that now,
but you'd get bored in no time.
Like me.
Deep down, we're both pirates.
Good pirates, good pirates.
But pirates.
Hey...
My father has a boat.
A sailboat.
What if I borrow it
and we sail across the Mediterranean?
Take our time.
And search for sunken galleons?
Yeah, why not?
A year of adventure.
Do you still have the Cousteau cap I gave you?
Okay,
I understand.
So...
how about...
you and me,
on a sailboat,
alone...?
What do you say?
Here we go.
It'll take 15 minutes to reach the freeway.
I'll let you know if there's any problem. Is that clear?
-Okay. -Let's go.
Where's Lucía? We need to leave right now.
Here!
I bought some things for the ride. Here.
Thank you, ma'am.
Miss!
That's for when we sail away on your sailboat.
But let me take the helm, you can't even drive.
-Deal. -Good luck, Calypso.
See you at the base.
Vilma, have you ever heard of the ship the Calypso?
No, son.
Jacques Cousteau...?
I only know about cars and trucks.
Okay, we're all set. Anytime.
Yes, sir.
This is Calypso 1, about to reach Interstate 275.
The sea is quiet. Over.
This is Calypso 2. We're pulling out. Wait for us at the interstate.
Over and out.
Really?
Alex, don't make me puke. Over.
Hey, it's for the ambassador.
Okay. How about this:
Okay really or...?
Yes, very diplomatic, very you. Over and out.
Because he doesn't know what to do without you.
And who calls you in the middle of the night
to say that he loves you.
I'm that guy.
The guy who leads you firmly on his arm.
And who lets no one step in your way.
No matter what happens, he'll protect you.
The hero every woman hopes for.
And for you he faces danger.
Your best friend.
I'm that guy.
The guy who loves you the way you are.
On whose chest you sleep after making love.
Who strokes your hair and talks to you about love.
About love!
Alex, this is too much.
He says other things that make you warm.
Make you warm...
Please, stop.
You wake up in the morning with a smile and your eyes say...
I'm that guy.
I'm exactly the guy for you.
Who makes you happy and adores you.
Who dries your tears whenever you cry.
I'm that guy.
The guy who always waits with a smile.
Who opens your car door saying
he's madly in love with you.
He kisses you and says it again.
That he missed you and needs you.
Because he loves you.
Mike.
Yeah, I saw it.
It's been behind us too long.
Lord have mercy.
What's wrong?
Don't worry, sir. Everything is under control.
Hey, a black Hummer is following us.
It's between our trucks, so squeeze him out.
Okay.
You'll pop out of there like a cockroach, fucker.
Don't let him go. Sweep him.
Slow down, boss.
He's not passing us.
Here comes another one.
-Another one? -Yeah, on the right.
Fuck.
Do it.
Hey, hey, hey! Where's that coming from?
Gentlemen, that's a gun!
Okay, boys, here we go.
Get it all out, eh? Get it all out!
What are you doing?
Oh, my God! Oh, my God! You have guns and everything!
Don't worry, it's just to scare them.
Good, boss. In plain view.
Check it out, motherfuckers.
Just to scare them, right?
Bingo, boss.
They got the message.
I told you, sir.
Nice couple.
Ambassador.
Alex.
Congratulations and thank you for everything.
Congratulations.
Come on!
Ambassador...
-Thank you. -Thank you.
Ambassador...
Do you want something?
No.
All I want is for you to tell me who you are.
And why you were chasing us this morning.
We weren't chasing you, Alex.
We were escorting you.
Look:
the intervention
to get Clayden De Alba to testify,
the man standing guard outside your apartment...
It was us all along, helping you.
Like that time you threatened to ruin my career?
That was at first,
because taking on Atlantis could have harmed our interests,
but later on we realized this was
a unique opportunity.
"Unique."
Look.
I know there's something else down there.
In the Strait.
There is.
One of those things that everyone depends on
but nobody knows about.
What thing?
A tube of cables
this thick across the sea floor.
The world's biggest communications network.
It connects Europe, the Middle East
and Africa.
A few years ago, an American military software company...
Cyclops.
Cyclops,
developed a new technology that could intercept and analyze
millions of communications simultaneously.
Do you know what that means?
-Espionage. -The world's most precious asset
isn't oil, or gold, or silver anymore.
It's data.
Da-ta.
But, ironically, we had to do something so simple and common
as tap the cables, something Atlantis could do.
Right.
The U.S. hired their services and promised us
a piece of the pie.
That's why we let Wild operate in the Strait.
-And what happened? -Well,
it worked for a while,
until he realized he had us by the balls
and started demanding more money.
But he made a mistake.
La Fortuna.
He wanted to play explorer while getting rich at our expense.
Now his stock has plummeted and he'll have no choice
but to accept our terms.
Okay.
And why are you telling me all of this?
This might surprise you, but...
Why don't you work for us?
No.
Well, think about it. Take your time.
I think they're calling me.
The ambassador is going to speak.
Down deep, it's comforting to know there are still Don Quixotes
like you in the world, Alex.
I don't know how to take that.
Don't take it any way.
Remember, I don't exist.
Well, I guess I'll see you in...
Of course.
What are you doing in here?
What do you think? We're escorting the cargo.
Good morning, I'm Lieutenant Colonel Almenar.
By order of Court Number 2 in Algeciras
I hereby take custody of the treasure of La Fortuna until its final
destination is determined.
Step down from there, please.
Hey.
What will you do with the treasure?
I can't tell you that. From now on, it's all classified information.
Yeah, but we want to go with you, we're the ones who...
File the necessary request.
Yeah, but we...
Miss, I'm only following orders.
Then who do we have to talk to...?
Forget it.
So that's it, it's over.
We busted our asses for two years and they don't even know who we are.
The government changed, what did you expect?
And of course all the usual suspects will take the credit.
And all men, of course. Motherfuckers! Bastards!
Lucía, please! Lucía, please!
And here you can see the beginning of the convoy
that will transport the treasure to an undisclosed location,
but everything seems to indicate that it will be the Bank of Spain.
Be careful.
