and we must talk to each other. i am arrested for stealing cars. for the grand theft auto. okay? so, now it is your turn. now you will tell me, okay? you will tell me why you are here? oh, come on, george. if we are to be friends, we must trust each other. ah, yes. the murder. nothing. just a little project. never mind. not for you to worry. you have your intrigues. i have mine. this is a happy day for me, george. nine months from today, i will be in medellin sipping champagne. in nine months, i am free. how much time do you have? twenty-six months? for murder? i must be your lawyer. only two ways i know to leave here early. one is to escape. george? hey, george? i listen to what you say to the class today about the smuggling. you are a magico, ah? i never believed you were a murderer. i knew. i knew you are a magico. i have seen it in you. it's in your spirit. you like to make the boundaries disappear. it's not only the money, is it, george? the adventure is part of the victory. it's the thrill, ah? in my country, i am a magico. a man with a dream. a man on the rise. to take nothing and make it something, okay? i have failed my dream, but i will accomplish. that is why i am in your country. yes, i lose my freedom. but they do not take my dream. do you have a dream, george? yes, you have a dream. and maybe you accomplish your dream. but yet you failed. why? no, my brother. you failed because you had the wrong dream. george? what do you know about cocaine? no, no. that is where you are wrong. for us, it is cheap. in medellin, we buy for six-thousand dollars a kilo. in miami, we sell for sixty. and that's wholesale. cut it a few times and retail, you're looking at two, three-hundred thousand. yes. and a kilo of coca is smaller than a kilo of your precious marijuana. everything is the same, george, except instead of thousands, you are making millions. now do you see what i am saying? don't worry. we will talk of everything. we have the time. you arrive here with a bachelor of marijuana, but you will leave with a doctorate of cocaine. what type of planes do you have? how many kilos can we fit in these planes?
