I’ve spent some time in your country. I know your people like to haggle but this isn’t some Tijuana flea market, Ms. Mendoza. My price is final. Now you can pay it or you can haggle with tourists over five dollars souvenirs. Your choice.
LaFayette
What your father had to do, what everyone in this life is forced to do…look at me…you can never come back from. Whoever you thought you were, that dies. You don’t want this.
Teresa [to Tony]
She told me that Santeria was created when the slave masters would force their slaves to practice Christianity, so the slaves banded together and created their own secret religion so they could keep their own faith. Mi tia survived life in Culiacán, she survived cancer. Dumas men fired at me at point blank range. A bullet went right through my jacket and didn’t even touch me.
Pote
Javier: I’ll answer to Teresa not you, cabron.
Pote: No, pendejo, you answer to me. I brought you here from Mexico. I trusted you with her. Don’t make me regret that.
Give me a job, I just can’t sit around here. Put me to work, please.
George
We killed an innocent man because of you. There’s no way to make that right. You put everything we’ve built here at risk. Do you understand that?
Teresa
Bury Bobby. Put Boaz on a plane back to Mexico. If you want to behave like him, get on the plane with him.
Teresa
Word is Mendoza’s sending you a message. I’m a God fearing man so here’s how it’s going to go. You get one hit. An eye for an eye to put that girl in her place. After that, we go back to business as usual.
Judge LaFayette
Boaz: Sinaloa should have been ours. It still could be.
Javier: You want to move on Teresa’s business?
Boaz: Teresa’s only worried about expanding into the east coast. She’s taken her eyes off the rest of the business. We’d just be there to pick up the pieces. Think about it, primo.
Pote: I know that Teresa taught you how to shoot a gun but I need to see that you can handle it safely. If you do, you can take it.
Tony: Are you serious?
Pote: This is not a toy, Tony. This is a tool. It can protect you or it can kill you. I need to see that you can handle it, then it’s yours.
George: My Daddy always used to say, God invented liquor for nights like this.
Teresa: You saved my life, George.
George: No, you’ve got that backward. I’ve been off my game but you didn’t give up on me.
Teresa: I can’t buy what you give me, trust.
George: That being said, I ain’t exactly wired to be Costner to your Whitney and tracking shipments ain’t exactly floating my boat.
Tony: My Dad started working in the cartel when he was 14. I’m 15.
Pote: And look how well that turned out for him.
