00:00Did you take care of the drop like I asked you to?
00:04No, no puedo hablar en este momento.
00:07Just make sure the package stands when it's supposed to, okay?
00:13You live here, bud?
00:15Yep.
00:16This is it.
00:18I didn't realize that.
00:20I don't usually let Mateo hang out with people that live around here.
00:23Dad.
00:24It has nothing to do with you, Juan.
00:26Mateo knows that.
00:28My father taught me numbers to trust people that aren't family.
00:30But you seem like a good kid, so I'll make an exception for you.
00:33Thanks, Mr. Perez.
00:35Later, Mateo.
00:38Let's get out of here.
00:42Are you Juan Guerrero?
00:46Yes.
00:47Let's go, son.
00:53I'm Chief Roderick, and this is Agent Morris.
00:56And what do you want with my son?
01:03Do you know this man?
01:06Mr. Perez?
01:07Yeah, he just dropped me off.
01:09Did he do something?
01:10We have reason to believe that Carlos Perez is involved in running a major underground drug operation.
01:17Oh, my God.
01:20This is called blow pop.
01:22It's an extremely addictive drug that's been taking over the streets.
01:26Now, it's been killing an awful lot of people.
01:28Especially kids.
01:30Kids.
01:31And you think Mr. Perez is the person selling it?
01:34We do.
01:35And that's why we need your help.
01:37What I'm about to propose to you might sound a bit shocking.
01:40We need Juan to go undercover.
01:44What?
01:45No.
01:46He's just a child.
01:47Miss Guerrero, we're running out of options.
01:49And we're running out of time.
01:51Carlos Perez is an extremely private person.
01:54All of his close associates are his family members, who we believe are also members of his organization.
01:59Now, what we need is a neutral party.
02:03Somebody he'd never expect.
02:06It doesn't matter.
02:08I'm not going to put him in any danger.
02:11I still can't believe Mr. Perez is a drug dealer.
02:14He's so nice.
02:15Juan, criminals are overly nice.
02:19But I want you to think about something.
02:20Carlos Perez drives a Rolls Royce.
02:23He lives in a huge mansion, both of which he's purchased over the past 12 months.
02:28Who do you know who works at a liquor store can afford such a thing?
02:33Miss Guerrero, I understand your hesitation.
02:35But may I add that there is a $1 million reward to whoever can nail this guy.
02:41Officially approved by the governor herself.
02:45You're not going to convince me to risk the life of my son for money.
02:50I don't care how much it is.
02:51I've seen the movies.
02:53I know how it goes when you're an informant for the cops.
02:56We get it.
02:58Here's my number.
03:01Please give me a call if you change your mind.
03:03Okay?
03:06You'd be saving a lot of lives, Juan.
03:08And you'd help us put a very bad man behind bars.
03:12And we would truly appreciate your help.
03:14Okay, so don't spend it all.
03:23We still need to pass for your home, okay?
03:24And it's going to rain and I don't want to walk.
03:26Okay, Mama.
03:27Okay.
03:29Yeah.
03:29Maria?
03:33Hello, Annalise.
03:34Everything okay?
03:34Yes, excuse me.
03:35I'm sorry.
03:36I'm just a mess right now.
03:38I just talked to Héctor from church.
03:40And his son is on life support.
03:41What?
03:42What happened?
03:43He got into some drugs and he overdosed on something called...
03:47I don't remember.
03:48Lollipop?
03:50Blowpop?
03:51SÃ.
03:52Héctor said that all the kids are taking this.
03:54It's even in the schools now.
03:57You got to take care of Juan, Ana.
03:59Juanito, he would never...
04:02I mean, that's what I thought that too.
04:03And now look what happened.
04:07Just be careful, okay?
04:09I don't know who these monsters are that are selling these drugs, but...
04:13We need to get them off the streets.
04:15Yeah.
04:15Before they take more of our kids.
04:18Yeah.
04:19Yeah.
04:19Take care of yourself, okay?
04:22Okay.
04:22Bye.
04:23Bye.
04:24Juan.
04:26Ana, I saw this really cool shirt, but it's $6.
04:30Can I still buy it?
04:32No, I'm sorry, baby.
04:34That's okay.
04:35I'll go find something else.
04:47If you are scared...
04:49It's not that.
04:51It's just...
04:52I still don't think Mr. Pettis is a bad guy.
04:56This is Carlos Perez's criminal record.
04:59As you can see, he has a drug possession charge from back when he was 17.
05:05Wow.
05:05We didn't know that.
05:07These people are very good at hiding their pasts.
05:10One thing I've discovered in all my years of doing this is that you just can't trust everybody.
05:16Sometimes, even a wolf can be disguised in sheep's clothing.
05:21What exactly does Juan need to do?
05:23I mean, I don't want to put him in any danger.
05:25Oh, he'll be completely safe.
05:27I promise.
05:29This is what they call a covert listening device.
05:33Some people call it a bug.
05:35You would need to place this in Mr. Perez's office or any place where he conducts business.
05:40You think you can do that for us, son?
05:42I guess so.
05:43Great.
05:44Our informants on the street say there's been a lot of talk about this big shipment coming this week.
05:49We just need location and time, and this bug is going to help us to get that.
05:55All right.
05:56I mean, I am supposed to go to Mateo's house tomorrow, so...
05:59Perfect.
06:00You may not know this yet, Juan, but you're truly a hero for doing this.
06:05And if you can actually pull it off, that million-dollar reward is going to help you and your mom a lot.
06:12So, we'll see you tomorrow at 0800 to brief you and give you all the details.
06:17Oh, I almost forgot.
06:19Keep this with you at all times.
06:22This is a tracking device.
06:24This will let us know where you are.
06:25Okay?
06:26Okay.
06:28We'll see you tomorrow.
06:29Okay.
06:35You think you can do this, mijo?
06:37I don't want you to do anything you don't want to.
06:41If it's going to help people, then I don't mind.
06:44And besides, we really need the money.
06:47No, you don't have to worry about that.
06:49I have you.
06:51And that's all that matters.
06:53Just be careful.
06:56Because if something was to happen to you...
07:01I couldn't...
07:03I couldn't...
07:04Want to play PS5?
07:10Uh, actually, can we play something else?
07:13How about, uh, hide and seek?
07:16What are we, six?
07:17Come on, it'll be fun.
07:19Besides, your house has, like, the best hiding spots ever.
07:22Fine, I'll count to ten.
07:24No!
07:25A hundred, please.
07:30One, two, three, four.
07:33Four, five, six, seven.
07:47Our numbers, brothers, is really taking off.
07:49Yeah.
07:50The shipments coming in tonight?
07:52Yeah.
07:52Midnight at the warehouse in Santa Ana.
07:55Nice.
07:55Looks like everything's going to be planned.
07:56Let's hope this party's as sweet as the last.
07:58That last shipment?
07:59It's all like in three days.
08:00The streets love it.
08:02It's our finest party, kid.
08:03Did you hear that?
08:05Ha ha!
08:06That means that drop is going down tonight.
08:09Okay, I need you to contact the SWAT guys.
08:11And I need you to get a hold of the kid.
08:14And tell him he needs to somehow find a way down to that drop point.
08:17The kid?
08:18We can't see him do a drug deal.
08:19It's too risky.
08:20Plus, we need to get clearance from the chief on that, Morris.
08:23No, no, no.
08:23We don't have time for that.
08:24This is about to go down now.
08:26Our best chance of busting Perez is that kid.
08:29And he's got the tracker.
08:31And we need to be able to track these guys,
08:33just in case they make a last-minute change.
08:36Okay.
08:36Texting him right now.
08:38All right.
08:38I'm going to have to take this call.
08:47And then I'm going to head back to the office.
08:49But we'll meet up again at 2200 hours.
08:52You two stay on surveillance until then.
08:54And, uh, cheer up, fellas.
08:56You're about to take down the kingpin tonight.
08:58I mean, that's a copy of that.
09:08Were you just in my office?
09:19I, uh...
09:21There you are, Juan.
09:23Sorry, Dad.
09:24We were playing hide-and-seek.
09:25I forgot to tell Juan this was off-limits.
09:27Right.
09:28No worries, though.
09:29I just stepped in for a minute.
09:30But good to know.
09:31Hmm.
09:33Skately, we should get you home one.
09:34Uh, actually, my mom just texted me
09:36and she said she has to work late.
09:38So, do you think I could stay?
09:39Stay here?
09:40No.
09:41I don't let anybody say that's not family.
09:43My father Miguel made that policy
09:44and I haven't broken it.
09:46Please, Dad.
09:46I never get to have my friend's day over.
09:48I'm sorry, Mateo, but the answer is going to be...
09:50Shipment's early.
09:52We gotta go.
09:57You can stay.
09:59But you boys have to get to bed.
10:00No more roaming around.
10:02Yes.
10:04You can sleep on the floor in my room if you want.
10:06Uh, actually, I think I was just
10:07going to sleep in the living room with us, cool?
10:09Okay.
10:09Okay.
10:09We're all set.
10:37Should we take Dad's Rolls-Royce instead?
10:39Let's move the bags to the other car.
10:41Alright.
10:42You know what?
10:44Never mind.
10:45I don't like taking it to that side of town at night.
10:47Yeah.
10:48Let's go.
10:49Yeah.
10:50Yeah.
10:50Yeah.
10:50Yeah.
11:05Well, it's all coming together, Carlos.
11:08Yeah, it is.
11:10Miguel would be so proud of what you've done.
11:11To bring us all together and expand the store that he left for you?
11:15That's huge.
11:17Gracias, hermanos.
11:19I just wish he was here to see it.
11:22Think about him all the time.
11:23Well, that new shipment of wine you're making in his honor
11:25is going to keep his legacy alive.
11:28Yeah, it is.
11:30Wine.
11:30Leave the bags for now.
11:40Let's go meet him.
11:56What?
11:56What?
11:56What?
11:57What?
11:57What?
11:57What?
11:57What?
11:58What?
11:58What?
11:59What?
11:59What?
12:00What?
12:00What?
12:03Wait.
12:05Miguel's sweet red?
12:14Come on.
12:15Come on.
12:27Everything's here.
12:28Perfectly intact.
12:29Half of this is tequila.
12:30Half of this is tequila.
12:30Half of this is tequila.
12:30Half of this is tequila.
12:31The other half is wine.
12:32Thanks.
12:32Thanks.
12:32Let's have a look.
12:37Ah, yeah.
12:40This is perfect.
12:41You would have loved this.
12:43You'd be proud.
12:44and go check your cat is the other person.
12:47This is easy.
12:47And stop lying.
12:48He wants to find out what is going on.
12:50Hey, what's going on?
12:51Yeah.
12:51Save it, Perez.
12:52You know why we're here.
12:54No, I honestly, I have no idea.
12:56Make it easy on yourself and stop lying.
13:00We know all about the blow-pop drug trade.
13:03Makes sense considering your past criminal history.
13:06Are you kidding me?
13:07There's no drugs here.
13:09Yes, I had a crazy life when I was a teen, but I've cleaned up since then.
13:13If you look in these boxes, all you'll find is wine and tequila.
13:16Can it. You're not fooling anybody.
13:18It's true!
13:20Juan, what are you doing here?
13:21I'm sorry. I'll explain later.
13:25Mr. Perez is telling the truth.
13:27Miguel Martinez, his dad, passed away and left him at the liquor store.
13:30He doesn't just work there. He owns it.
13:33These boxes have wine they're making in his honor.
13:42Doesn't make any sense.
13:44You drive a Rolls Royce. You live in a mansion.
13:47Nobody can afford that who owns a liquor store.
13:50That's what you think of me?
13:51That I just own a liquor store?
13:54Can we put our hands down so I can explain?
13:56Yeah, go ahead.
13:59Juan's right.
14:00I didn't inherit the store from my father who passed away last year.
14:03But I also teamed up with my brothers to start our own brand of tequila.
14:06Sam owns the agave farms in Mexico and Pedro has the factories here.
14:11And that's why we named it the Hernandez Brothers Tequila.
14:16Check out some of these boxes.
14:21There's nothing but wine in these boxes, sir.
14:26Nothing but tequila in this one.
14:33All right, all right.
14:34See?
14:35I told you.
14:36This just doesn't make any sense.
14:39It's got to be here.
14:40Boys, keep going through these boxes.
14:42Keep searching.
14:43Search through the ones in the back.
14:45Keep looking.
14:45What do you have to say about this?
14:55Whoa.
14:58Hey, man.
15:00I don't know how that got there, man.
15:01That's not one of my boxes.
15:02We know.
15:03These men have been playing you.
15:05Why don't you head on home?
15:06For the rest of you, put your hands behind your backs.
15:09That's a nice trick you pulled.
15:11Using a liquor store as a front to hide your drug import trade.
15:16Arrest them.
15:16No, no, no.
15:17Dude, you're making a terrible mistake.
15:18Those aren't our boxes.
15:20Why do people always say the same thing?
15:22You're going down.
15:23Thanks to the undercover work of Juan, you're going to be locked away for a long, long time.
15:29You went undercover, Juan?
15:30Get him out of here.
15:37I still can't believe he really did it.
15:40I trusted him.
15:42I know, Juan.
15:43It's like I said.
15:45You can't trust just everybody.
15:47But I want to thank you for everything you've done.
15:49You were great.
15:50Sure.
15:52Here's a checker.
15:53The bug's still in the office.
15:55All right.
15:58Well, well, well.
16:00Looks like I missed all the action.
16:02Well, hey, Chief.
16:03I told you we'd do it.
16:05Good job.
16:06Do you mind taking Juan home for me?
16:08Sure.
16:08I have to stop by the lab with the evidence.
16:12And also, the rest of the guys will be here later on to clear this out.
16:15Okay.
16:16Thank you, sir.
16:17See you then.
16:19How are you holding up, son?
16:21I'm a little shaken up, but I'll be all right.
16:24Of course, I can imagine.
16:26But you can rest easy knowing that a lot of people's lives are going to be
16:30safe because of you.
16:32Why don't I take you home so I can tell your mom how much of a hero you are?
16:36I'm sure she's so worried by now.
16:38What do you think?
16:40Yeah.
16:40Look at that.
16:43More is for a gun.
16:45He is gone.
16:46Let me give him a call.
16:47How are we looking?
16:55Good.
16:56We could touch a million by the end of the month.
16:59I'd like to hear that.
17:00We're definitely going to make a million, especially now that Carlos Perez and his family
17:03are going to take the fall for us.
17:07Oh, who's this?
17:10That's the chief.
17:11He's blowing up my phone.
17:13You can take it.
17:13No, no.
17:14I need to buy some time before I head to the lab.
17:18Listen, I need you to do me a favor.
17:21I need you to open that up and pour half of that into our pile, and I'll take the other
17:25half to the lab.
17:26Don't you need all that for evidence against Perez?
17:29Trust me.
17:29Half of that's enough to put Perez and his whole family behind bars for years to come.
17:34Besides, I'd like to keep the profit for ourselves.
17:38Is that so?
17:39Chief, what are you doing here?
17:44I was just about to call you.
17:45David Morris, I heard everything.
17:47Look, I know it looks bad, but I can explain what...
17:50What?
17:51Looking for this?
17:53That's why I was calling you.
17:54You forgot your gun.
17:56Luckily, one had the bright idea of using the tracking app to find you.
18:01And I was a little surprised to see that you were not at the lab.
18:04You are something else, Morris.
18:13Arrest him.
18:14No, wait, please.
18:15I'm DEA!
18:16Where's DEA?
18:18Get him out of here.
18:19You're making a mistake.
18:20Get him out of here now.
18:21Listen to me.
18:22I was just about to arrest this perp when you showed up.
18:25Chief, listen to me.
18:26Just get out of here.
18:27We're really sorry about the messed up, Mr. Carols.
18:42We had no idea this was going on.
18:46It's all right.
18:47I'm just happy that my name's in the clear.
18:49Absolutely.
18:50And I'm so sorry about going undercover, too.
18:54He'll probably never let me see Mateo again.
18:57Oh, please, don't blame Juan.
18:58It was our idea.
19:00We made him do it because Morris had us convinced that he was the drug dealer.
19:04I understand.
19:05It just goes to show what a good kid Juan is.
19:08And in the end, you helped take down the bad guys,
19:10making the streets a little safer for even my own son.
19:13So you're welcome to come see him anytime you want.
19:16Really?
19:17Thanks, Mr. Perez.
19:19But, you know, H. Morris was right about one thing.
19:23You can't trust everybody.
19:25Sometimes, even a wolf can be disguised in sheep's clothing.
19:34Oh, wait!
19:35You may want to check your office.
19:37There's a bug in there.
19:38Sorry about that.
19:43I was so worried about you.
19:45I'm so glad that you're okay, sweetheart.
19:47Gracias, ma.
19:48I just wish we could have gotten that reward.
19:50What do you mean?
19:51You're still getting it.
19:53If it weren't for you, we would have never found out the truth.
19:56In fact, I spoke to the governor today,
19:58and he wants to meet you in person tomorrow to give you the million dollars.
20:02What a way!
20:03Does that mean I have to get the $6 shirt?
20:08Of course you can, mijo.
20:09Of course you can.
20:11And the new iPhone 14?
20:13Well, now you're pushing.
20:16Yo, is that Ricky?
20:18What's up, Nate the Great?
20:19So he's pulling up in the Porsche now?
20:21Is this you?
20:22Yep.
20:23Hey, if you want to get on this, hit my phone.
20:26Are you jealous?
20:27Because I told you I can put you on.
20:30You're unbelievable.
20:30Ciao, ciao.
