Archer, Lana and others in “Coyote Lovely”

Archer

Mexico's most notorious coyote... Which is Español for "people smuggler."

Lana

Thanks. That's—

Archer

And also for... coyote, it turns out.

Lana

Archer—

Archer

It's a loanword. Or is it a calque?

Lana

Why do you always do this?

Archer

Because I'm always bored.

Cyril

Is he—? This is totally nerve-wracking. How are you bored?

Lana

Don't engage him.

Archer

Because I've been lying in scorpion piss for two hours in the sun-blasted shit-hole which is Texas, waiting for a stupid truck stuffed with smallish brown people who just want a job.

Cyril

And probably Mexican cartel gunmen!

Lana

What'd I just say?

Archer

Big whoop. I'm spooning a Barrett .50-cal. I could kill a building.

Lana

Just put one through the engine block when the truck has to stop, please. [To Cyril] This is what he does. He knows we're tense, because we're normal human beings. My theory—and I'm serious—is that he's got some rare kind of pervasive developmental disorder, or even undiagnosed atypical autism.

Archer

Um... Your mic's hot.

Lana

I know.

Archer

Wow.
