[During Jimmy’s visit, Lalo laughs at a newspaper headline about the fire that destroyed Los Pollos Hermanos]
What’s so funny?
Oh, you wouldn’t get it.
O–Okay.
Okay, here’s what you’re gonna do. You’re gonna take 25 south to Las Cruces, then you're gonna pick up 10 west from there. Hey, write this down, man! Es complicado!
Alright, 10 west at Las Cruces.
Little past Deming, there’s a state road—it’s 146. Uh... Follow the signs to Antelope Wells until mile marker 223. Turn off at the dirt road, and take thirty miles south.
Thirty miles down a dirt road?
Fewer eyes out in the desert, you know? Actually it’s 31.6. So, make sure that you use the little, uh, trip meter thing on the odometer or whatever. Anyway, once you get there, you’re gonna see a well. It’s really old, broken down.
What does this well look like?
It looks like a well. It’s the only one out there.
C—Can you see it from the road?
You’ll see it, don’t worry about it! My cousins are gonna meet you there with the money. 9 A.M. You’ll like them, they’re good boys!
[sighs] I’ll bet. Um… Hey, I have an idea. Why not have these cousins of yours bring the money all the way here? Cut out the middle man.
Yeah, see the thing is… This whole thing has to be very low profile. There are people, let’s say competitors of mine—people who want to keep me in here—and so, my cousins come into town. Those people will notice.
What about Nacho Varga? Would your competitors notice him? He seems like he’s got a pretty good head on his shoulders.
Ignacio? Yeah, sure. I mean… He’s good for a lot of things. But with seven million? A guy like that could get real dumb real fast, you know? Hey, you’re the right guy for this. You’re nobody! I mean, no offense, but nobody’s gonna look twice at you!
Yeah, sure.
Hey, look. Maybe this isn’t your thing, you know? I mean, that’s okay, I get it. Y—You did good in court. We’ll leave it at that.
Oh, thanks. I appreciate that.
Don’t worry about it. I’ll find somebody else.
Yeah, so… I guess we’re done here?
Guess so.
Alright. Uh… I’m gonna shred these. And if there’s anything else you need, any legal services…
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I got your number.
[Jimmy stops himself as he walks to the door]
A hundred thousand.
[pause] Dollars?
Yeah.
That’s a lot of money.
To bring back seven mil? And I’m the best guy to do it? That’s actually less than two percent commission. I think it’s right.
So, 100K for a little drive through the desert, huh?
That’s the price.
[pause] Done!
