RARÁMURI TERRITORY
Stop messing around, we're supposed to be on watch duty.
Nothing ever happens here.
-Would you rather live with the Chabochi? -Don't say you haven't considered it.
To leave, we'd need gold. Out there, no one survives without it.
Let's go already.
THE HEAD OF JOAQUÍN MURRIETA
EPISODE 5 FEVER
There's no rot yet, but she's too weak.
Enough is enough.
-I need to take her to a doctor. -A white man would've amputated her leg.
What good is having a leg if she doesn't wake up?
How's she doing?
No change.
We'd better head out to Agua Caliente. We're just wasting time here.
The owirúame suggested a powerful remedy.
-But it's very hard to find. -What? Witchcraft? The hell with that.
Let's leave. Or do you wanna stay and listen to more of this bullshit?
Give it a rest, man. You're insulting our hosts
after everything they've done for us… And for Adela.
Fucking priest. On top of a heretic, you're also a coward.
It represents creation. The cycle of water.
The spirals.
They're everywhere.
The origin.
And then a long path that goes on forever.
I don't know where I'm going, Chepe.
You'll find your fate as you go along. The important thing is to keep going.
If you stop, you die.
But that doesn't mean you must walk the path alone.
You could be an honorable man again, have a family.
You could walk along with us. Think about it.
My brother, Sume, and I want a different assignment.
We're tired of wasting time on the mountain.
You are still too young, be patient.
Anything else?
Then I want to discuss something that concerns us all.
I've invited Joaquín Carrillo to stay with us.
WANTED JOAQUÍN MURRIETA & "LOS JOAQUINES"
Carrillo travels with bandits. Why do you think he's different?
If it wasn't for Joaquín, my son wouldn't have come home.
Our father never came back. What do Sume and I owe him?
If he were alive, he'd remind you he shared food and ammo with us.
I assume responsibility for Joaquín Carrillo.
His guests will leave when the girl recovers.
All said, let's take a vote. All in favor of welcoming Carrillo?
It's been spoken.
We don't need them.
-It's strong, but good. -Are all the priests back home like you?
I hope not.
I left Ireland because there was nothing left for me.
They were expecting a priest
and they assumed I was him.
Me, of all people.
Time passed, and, eventually, the lie became the truth.
God himself chose me. And all I did was listen...
To His voice.
Chepe offered me to stay here...
With his people.
But?
But my duty is to avenge my family.
What do you want me to tell you?
I don't know.
Follow your heart.
And let Saint Peter judge you when you arrive at the Gates of Heaven.
Just be honest with them.
She left everything behind to seek vengeance with you.
You need to go on living.
I will do anything to help you get better.
For you to get out.
She's burning up.
So what do we do?
He says, "The soul leaves the body when we sleep."
"Adela has been asleep for so long that her soul got lost on the way back."
She needs jíkuri.
-What's that? -Whosh ii. A sacred cactus.
"You have a blood debt, only you can help her."
"You'll have to go unarmed, Murrieta. Leave all of your things."
Drink this, chabóchi.
He says, "It will help you see,
and find her."
Chin up, boys. Sleep while you can.
Hell awaits us at dawn.
Do you still want to leave?
Yes, Leiva. Before dawn.
I'll leave with you.
He killed himself because of you.
Captain, sir. I wanted to tell you that
it's been an honor to serve under your command.
You're a coward and a liar!
Deserter!
You must stay here and die with the rest of your men!
Don't run away!
Captain!
What is it, Leiva?
You shouldn't let that kid live. She'll grow up, and she won't forget it.
She won't survive without her parents.
Please, don't! Please!
-Hold it, asshole. -This brat's been following us.
Lower the fucking gun.
I'm not taking care of no chink. Especially one of her age.
But I will.
Cut the crap, Joaquín! You'll ruin everything we have.
The only thing we have in common, is that we're both fucking deserters.
-There's no turning back for us. -You said it.
What's your name?
Do you know how to shoot? Don't worry, I'll teach you.
Take it. Good.
You look at me just like Adelita, my dear mother, may she rest in peace.
-Let's go. -I'm going to find you, bastard!
I swear, I'm gonna kill you!
Damn deserter.
A coward and a liar. A coward and a liar.
Adela.
No, Adela, come here. Come here!
You should rest.
I was supposed to be a mother...
But my body rejected the seed.
I was all alone.
No husband,
no children,
and now, no sister.
In my loneliness, I realized I could tend to others
and heal their wounds.
I could be a diyin for my people.
I can't give life…
But I can preserve it.
We're losing Adela.
Come here.
Come here, come here.
She's not burning anymore.

FRONTIER OUTPOST
-Where is he? -We can take you there.
Take us there and you'll get your gold.
Have this food...
so you don't get hungry along the way.
I feel I did it more for me than for her.
You did your part.
-What part, exactly? -Having faith.
What was yours then?
Praying for you and getting drunk until dawn.
Drunken priest.
This is as far as we go. Give us what you promised.
The reward is for Joaquín Murrieta.
We'll bring him to you. Dead or alive, whichever you prefer.
Lend me a gun, at least.
I want the other Mexican too. Carrillo.
Bring them alive, and I'll pay you twice the gold.
They're following us. We could still run away.
Forget the gold. Let's just leave, you and I.
With that gold, we could do anything.
I'm tired of wasting my days on the mountain.
-We can't guide them to the settlement. -Don't worry, we won't.
I need your help.
I can't do this alone.
Get up.
You're also valuable dead.
Sume? Sume!
The rangers are on their way. They're going to kill you all.
The younger brother…
They tried to turn me in. Now the rangers know we're here.
Thank you.
Let's go! Let's go!
They found us.
