George already landed in Miami.
He's waiting on your word to retaliate.
We need to be sure it was Elias.
When you were in the hospital,
Elias attacked one of our shipments.
It was for Oksana.
Taking a shipment is one thing.
Killing Tony and trying to kill me
is completely different.
Then who else could it have been?
Elias know that we killed El Gordo.
Oksana was involved in his death.
He didn't attack her.
Not yet.
I want the people who killed Tony.
We need proof of who is responsible.
If it was Elias,
we're gonna kill him.
Orale.
Let's get the proof, then.
Victor and his swamp rat have scattered in the wind.
He knew we would be after him.
How hard can it be
to kill one little Mexican woman?
Unfortunately, Mendoza's men grabbed the woman
that Victor sent to finish the job.
There's a good chance she'll know where he's hiding.
If Mendoza gets to him before you,
she'll know who ordered that bomb.
Then I best find Victor.
Hang on a second.
Maybe we can kill two birds with one stone here.
If Miss Mendoza wants vengeance,
we'll help her get it.
