King George: He’s going to do a lot worse to her than he done to me.
Teresa: She knew the risks.

Camila: It must be eating away at her to become what she hated the most.
Pote: And what’s that?
Camila: Me.
Pote: She’s nothing like you. You don’t even deserve to speak her name.
Camila: I know more about running a cartel than she ever will and you know that.
Pote: Shut your mouth, Camila, or I will shut it for you for good.
Camila: You’re welcomed to try.

Teresa: You understand what will happen to you if this is a trap?
Camila: You’ll kill me and bury me in a hole somewhere and never think of me again. I was running for my life and I’m standing in front of the person who wants me dead more than anyone. The only thing that matters to me now is my daughter.

Pote: I learned the rules of the cartel from Epifanio. I know you were owed for his life. You killed the man that Teresa loved. You collected your payment but you still kept coming. Now you’re the one who owes.
Camila: I see that you and James have been doing a lot of the killing for Teresa. The entire Commission. Impressive. It’s interesting though, she never approved of violence when she was working for me.
Pote: She’s la jefa now and she will do what she has to to protect her people and her business.

Whenever you’re down you always come back stronger. This isn’t the time to give up, Teresita.

Pote

Teresa: Camila is dangerous.
Pote: Yes she is but you’re safer with her under your nose.

You are a survivor, Teresita. You never stop fighting. Don’t stop now.

Pote

I’m not la jefa anymore. I’m just Camila.

Camila

James: You could have come to me first. I put myself out there for you time and time again and this is what I get.
Teresa: I’m sorry. You deserve better.

A rat needs to go. You let one in it will eat you from the inside out.

Pote

Hallelujah! Life’s not worth living without tacos.

Little T

You know, El Santo, is on a whole other level of criminal. When he’s done with Teresa he will not only kill her he will throw her into a 55 gallon barrel of oil, light it, and watch her sear to death. You could help save Teresa’s life.

Queen of the South Quotes

You could say that I am living proof that the American dream is alive and well.

Teresa

My name is Teresa Mendoza. I am from Mexico. I was born poor, not that that's bad but take it from me, I've been poor and I've been rich. Rich is better.
