You're lost. They're real dead.
Who's she?
Receptionist. Mindy Springer.
How did he pass himself off as a dentist?
He wasn't passing.
He got himself a degree from a dental school down in Panama.
Came back here, kept his head down, worked the fringe. Illegals.
People without insurance.
Just didn't seem like a dentist.
Always thought he'd be on a beach somewhere in Belize or Brazil.
Um, we may have a problem.
There was gold missing.
Mrs. Peña's tamales?
Underneath.
Oh, smart.
It was exciting.
But there were a lot more guys than I expected.
Yeah, well, I did extract two teeth without anesthesia or permission.
But why would they send out 20 guys?
I got a lot of unpaid parking tickets.
Huh. So what do we do now?
We trade the gold for cash.
We get a new car, new IDs.
Once we're across the border, we cruise on down to Belize,
where they speak English and it's almost impossible to be extradited.
And then we set up shop and we start fixing kids' teeth again.
Sound good?
Sounds crazy. But yeah.
Okay.
I'm sorry if I crossed a line with you at the office.
If I shouldered my way to the front of the line, it wasn't intentional.
Only imagine how hard it's been for you to get where you are in the marshal service.
Because I'm black or because I'm a woman?
Because you're an idiot.
Excuse me?
I didn't shoulder my way to the front of the line.
I didn't say that. You did.
Look, I understand I'm the little man on the totem pole. I understand that.
But Raleigh and I have a long history, and I should be walking point.
This isn't just about this case.
You did cut to the front of the line.
And I don't know if it's because you know the chief from Glencoe,
but you walked in and you went right to the front.
Yeah. You ever consider I happen to be good at the job?
And you being a tall, good-looking white man with a shitload of swagger?
That has nothing to do with it.
You get away with just about anything.
What do I get away with?
Look in the mirror.
How'd you think it'd go over if I came into work one day wearing a cowboy hat?
You think I'd get away with that?
You want to try it on?
Two stores down when they trade cash for gold.
Get big bills.
You can want 15 pounds of money,
and I'll pick you up out front in about half an hour.
Why didn't you do it?
Because they have security cameras, and I don't want any more security cameras.
You need anything out of the car?
One of those tamales. I haven't had lunch.
Tell you what. Forget about the tamales.
When I get back, I'll take you to In-N-Out.
Where are you going?
I'm going to get us a new car, because they'll have yours by now.
You have enough to buy one?
I'll figure something out.
What, are you going to steal one?
You know how to steal a car?
Just get the money, okay?
What's going on?
What do you mean?
I am not the smartest person in the world, but I'm not an idiot.
I know you don't get federal agents after you because of unpaid parking tickets.
Tell me the truth, or I walk.
Up until six years ago, I worked for some really bad men.
How bad?
Scarface cut your arm off with a chainsaw kind of bad.
Jesus.
I was their accountant.
I just moved money around.
And then one day, I couldn't do it anymore.
So I took some of their money, and I ran.
And that's why I had to change my name.
Why didn't you tell me?
How do you think that conversation would have gone?
Uh, Mindy, yeah, before I was a dentist, I was a money launderer for a drug cartel.
What else did you lie about?
Well, I don't really know how to steal a car.
Look, if you want to walk, I understand.
How long until we're in Belize?
36 hours, maybe less.
