Previously on The Bridge
Two different women
- Cut in the half?
- Yes.
Do you have a girl that
matches this description?
Why is one dead white woman
more important than
so many dead just
across the bridge?
Why did he pick you, Frye?
My husband is having
a heart attack.
Where does it go?
Across.
To Mexico.
Board it up.
I don't think that's
a good idea, señora.
_
An American.
_
_
I'll be back.
Hey, no, no, no, no, no.
_
_
Why did you walk away?
I just didn't want a drink.
Okay.
Want to have sex with me?
When did she come in?
Night before last.
Refused to see the nurse.
Bowl of soup and she was gone.
_
All right, out!
Let's go.
_
_
This is Frye.
It's a GPS coordinate.
Longitude and latitude.
It's just down here.
Holy ***!
_
_
The water was poisoned.
Ricin.
Lab tested the residue.
That's a nasty trick.
This bead's a little
bigger than the last one.
Good.
Thank you very much.
The old couple said there
were ten walkers to start.
We got nine dead.
We got a live one.
Yeah, a woman.
She probably walked to that
road, uh, got picked up.
First a judge, then a ***,
and now these poor ***.
- It doesn't track.
- I agree.
His MO's changing.
First the voice messages,
then the video?
Then a direct
call to the reporter.
Huh.
She does that.
Go on and get after her.
Go on!
Until I'm one
with you
my heart
shall not
pass through.
Our love will be mistaken.
He watched from here.
How do you
know he was watching?
He had to, to
know if they died.
And then he
called our reporter.
So he saw the woman get away.
He probably picked her up.
Do you have binoculars?
Not on me, no.
Why are you smiling?
Oh, it's-it's a joke.
Who lives there?
Well, it makes sense to me
to center this at El Paso PD.
Course it does.
It's your place.
Well, are you inviting us all
to your field office, Richard?
I'm just saying, the
FBI might spearhead this.
Border Patrol has the
equipment to find this girl.
Now, that's fine.
Anything that helps.
We find her, we may
well find the killer.
Well, we should put out an
APB, check out area hospitals.
Hank Wade.
Manny Stokes,
Sheriff's Department.
There's something
wrong with your hat, Manny.
Uh, of course you probably
know I found Judge Gates.
You found half of her.
That's accurate.
Okay.
We
congregate at our house.
Um, bring your own if you don't
like vanilla type coffee.
Uh, Cooper, I want you two to man
the checkpoint at New Mexico.
- Meaning me and him?
- Yeah.
Yeah, uh, Deputy Stokes seems
to be real dialed in.
Oh.
Okay.
- Okay.
- Great.
I'll drive.
Why not.
Get him talking.
Don't share too
much information.
This is our coyote killer.
Yeah.
He shows up
at the darnedest times.
Kate, it's not even noon.
I think I can drink
at my own dad's funeral.
You can do whatever you want.
I tanked at my mom's.
Wondering why Dad was with you in
Cabo instead of at her graveside.
Your father
loved you very much.
Why don't you take your
*** money and leave me alone.
So, Charlotte, honey, will
you be, uh, moving back to Orlando?
- Tampa.
- Oh, that's right.
No.
That's
not part of the plan.
You'll stay here?
Well, it's my home.
In fact, I would love to get more
involved in civic activities.
The Texas Art Walk.
You like art?
Sure.
And-and you're the cochairs?
Mm-hmm, right.
You be sure and
give us a call about that.
Hello?
Is anybody there?
It's the police.
Is anybody there?
It's the police!
Break the lock.
Can't do that.
Don't do that!
It's illegal.
He burned clothes.
Women's clothes.
And you still don't
want me to break in?
I'll get a warrant.
Detective Cross.
I need to secure a scene in the
Franklin Mountains, Upper Sunset Road.
That's right.
Oh, hi.
I'm, uh I'm Daniel Frye.
Congratulations.
Yeah, I'm looking for my, um
I'm looking for my-my boss.
She's a haggard brunette woman.
Hey, thanks.
You don't look so
fresh yourself, you know?
It's a it's a pretty
big news day in El Paso.
I don't really know
what we're doing here.
We need to have
a heart-to-heart.
I'm not really interested.
Hey, Daniel, sit down.
Oh, no.
No, thanks.
This guy chose
you for a reason, son.
He drove your car out onto the bridge,
and he picked you for this bomb nonsense.
Yeah, I recall.
Yeah, now he tips you off to the
location of these new victims.
Why?
Uh, search me.
Why do I have the feeling that
you're not telling me everything?
I don't really care
about your feelings.
This fella calls you again, you
come right to us, you understand?
In exchange for?
Uh, any new developments,
we, uh we talk to you first.
You got one handy.
I do.
There's a missing girl.
She was with the migrants.
She survived?
Yeah.
Yeah, she, uh
She walked to the road, we
think, and got picked up.
By him?
Don't know.
You got a name?
No.
But we have a
contact in Juarez.
Maybe you'll get
further than we did.
Oh.
Juarez.
Why does he leave beads?
Maybe just to connect the
bodies, so we know it's him.
You do that a lot.
Sigh.
Yep, when I'm upset.
You want to know why I'm upset?
Okay.
Just got an e-mail from the
attorney general in Mexico City.
And I read "By allowing
the ambulance to pass,
Detective Ruiz
compromised a crime scene".
There are rules.
The man was sick.
He had nothing to do with the case.
We didn't know that.
What would it take for
you to drop this complaint?
It's not possible.
All right.
Yeah.
No worries.
I'll deal with it myself.
Oh, uh, pull over.
Why?
It's Kitty's birthday.
I'm gonna get her some flowers.
_
Do you have any American money?
Yes.
Can you lend me some?
- Oh.
- Thanks.
Good afternoon.
_
_
Excuse me.
_
Excuse me.
You're on private property.
This is Rio, no?
Who are you?
You and I spoke
on the phone briefly.
You sent that lawyer.
I understand you
didn't enjoy the casserole.
I told him.
Whatever deal you had
with Karl, it's over.
I thought we
could talk, woman to woman.
Look, my husband
He's not who I thought he was.
Of course not.
But I have to
figure out my life now.
This can't be a part of it.
You're scared.
This is your ranch now.
Your land.
Yes.
So we'll be partners.
No.
I'm sorry.
I'm not like you.
But you are.
You don't know me.
You were poor, and you did
*** things to pull yourself up again.
And you're not going back.
The tunnel has got to go away.
_
_
So this couple was
crossing with the missing girl?
Jesus H.
Christ.
Shoot me now.
You've never been to Juarez?
Yeah, the fun parts.
The clubs and the-the
farmacia here.
Well, sorry to show
you how people actually live.
Yeah, that was a long time ago.
Oh, my shoe.
Hold on a sec.
Before it became War-ez.
This is
My shoe got thrashed.
Look, I know you
don't want me on this story.
Then why are you?
To keep you honest.
That's what Sherry said.
Yeah, you can suck it.
I'll pass.
This is it.
Nice.
Hey, say
some *** in Spanish.
_
_
_
_
_
This is Frye.
I have her.
You have who?
I'll let her go
for a price.
Uh how much?
Million dollars.
Split four ways.
Four ways.
Between who?
Samuel Halstead, Brady Moss,
Buzz Larson, Karl Millwright.
Millwright.
The businessmen?
The richest men in El Paso.
What's your point?
Dialectics.
Can you elaborate?
Who cares about
one poor Mexican?
Not the wealthy, the white.
But if they have to see it,
feel it, be responsible for
letting her slip away
will they care then?
Look, you obviously
have a point to make.
Come and talk to me
face-to-face.
We can I can
Hello? Damn it.
El Paso Times found
out her name is Maria.
She's from San Juanito.
This guy wants the ransom paid
by four particular patrons.
We reached out to them.
Who authorized you to do that?
I don't need authorization.
Correction.
This is now a joint task
force.
FBI and El Paso PD.
Sonya's on my team.
And kidnapping
is our territory.
From now on, we run that.
Understand?
I guess.
- What's her problem?
- She doesn't have a problem.
Charlotte Millwright.
Looking for?
Uh, someone
called for my husband.
Marco Ruiz,
Chihuahua State Police.
I remember you from the bridge.
Yes.
What are you doing here?
My husband was Karl Millwright.
His name came up in a case.
He's dead.
- Oh
- I'm so sorry.
We'll need to
talk to you, then.
I'll talk to him.
Sure.
Come this way, please.
New homicide?
Yeah, woman on
Hueco Avenue, strangled.
Hank.
Hueco Avenue.
Hank.
This is Steven
Linder's address.
No ***.
Karl wasn't political.
He didn't know that judge.
Did he spend time in Juarez?
We went to
Mexico for horse shows.
We'd drive through Juarez.
Did he have any
feelings about immigration?
I think he thought it was okay.
Well, for some reason, he
was named in a ransom demand.
I can't read a
dead man's mind, but I don't
think he'd want me to fork over a
quarter of a million dollars.
Oh, no, no.
That's not why we called.
Then why?
To see if there was
any personal connection.
My husband
didn't tell me everything.
That's what I'm finding out.
Yeah.
I'm sorry.
Hello, ladies.
Good morning.
Look at the third one down.
Hmm.
- Another one.
- Econ.
He's down to two classes now.
Thank you.
Look, I hate to
rat a kid out, but, uh
if he was mine, I'd want to know.
Thank you, Kenny.
_
_
Steven.
Cops are here.
Steven Linder?
Yeah?
Do you live at 320 Hueco?
Yeah.
Down the hall
from Wanda Cunningham?
Yeah, I know Wanda Cunningham.
Did you know she's dead?
No.
No, I didn't.
Okay, well, you
need to come with us.
Well, so what
the heck happened to Wanda?
Strangled.
Oh, Jesus
Is her cat okay?
Where were you yesterday?
I was at my trailer.
We're searching
that trailer right now.
Well, I don't know why.
'Cause we're
looking for a girl.
Mexican.
Crossed the border,
then disappeared.
You know a girl like that?
No, I do not.
Do you know the
reporter, Daniel Frye?
No.
You didn't call him today?
No, I I wouldn't call
him if I don't know who he is.
Mmm, can I check your phone?
No.
We found burned
clothes at your trailer.
Sir, I burn all my trash.
Really?
Why do you have women's
clothes in your trash?
Excuse me.
Is something funny here?
No.
Who's this?
Why?
Because you're carrying
her picture around with you.
Is that illegal?
No.
That's my sister.
What's her name?
Marina.
Haven't seen her for 15 years.
We were placed in
separate foster homes.
Look, I'm just a person
who helps people.
Are you also a person who
picks up girls on the road?
Takes them to your trailer?
No, sir.
With bars on the windows?
Yeah, that's for safety, sir.
Would you like you face broken?
Your fingers snapped off?!
I'm just a person
who helps people, sir.
Yeah, you said that before.
We don't need to
hear things twice.
Marco.
Steven, do you have her?
No.
Because the person who
does killed nine other people
and a judge and a poor
girl from Juarez.
Yes, I know.
I saw it on television.
Are you that person?
No, I am not.
You can go.
Okay.
Can I have that back?
I see you're very upset.
I would be, too, if I was
looking for a lost girl.
You are.
Sorry.
Hmm.
You are looking for a
lost girl, right?
Well, um, that's true.
Well, I hope we all find
what we're looking for.
You made that worse.
I made it better.
You have to shake up
an *** like that.
It doesn't matter.
We don't have anything on him.
I believed him.
She's wrong.
This guy's up to something.
Well, let's prove it.
Hey.
_
- You okay?
- Yeah.
_
Gus.
_
Okay, okay, uh
_
_
_
_
_
_
Sonya, I-I want you
to meet my family.
- This is my wife, Alma.
- Hello.
And this is my son Gus.
- Hi.
- Gus, Gustavo.
It's nice to meet you.
- What was your name?
- Sonya.
And-and you are partners?
For now.
Damn.
Anyway I'm
going back to my desk.
_
_
Larson and Halstead
were both in real estate.
Yeah, and the other
two were from oil and farming.
***.
It was drugs.
Oh, no, we don't know that.
God.
It's the border.
What are you talking about?
I'm not going to pay!
Nothing, nothing, nothing!
_
Hey, hey, hey
_
Daniel, come on!
Daniel, come on!
Get up! Daniel!
Come on! It's dangerous!
Oh, sh-sh
Hello!
_
We have the
biggest TV on the block.
_
_
_
_
Do you have, um
Is there any chance you guys have I'm
sorry, do you have uh, some cerveza?
Or, like, a, like, any,
like, little tequila?
_
Tequila.
Like, tequila would be great.
- Hi.
How is everyone? You, um
- Hi.
_
Lot of people in
a tiny house, huh?
Hey, um, I'm sorry.
There was a, uh, yeah, there was
there was a-a-a-a
shooting, like, and we couldn't
get back across the bridge.
And then Adriana said that we could
Here you go.
Hey, take it easy on the beer.
I'm thirsty.
- So you like Adriana?
- Oh, yeah, she's great.
You're the boyfriend?
Mama, he's not my boyfriend.
No, uh, we're colleagues.
Uh, amigos.
- Well, I'm single.
- ***.
So am I.
Hey, can you guy stop
throwing your *** at my coworker?
_
_
Yeah, you-you can throw
whatever you want at me.
Cheers.
Here's to, uh, throwing.
Cheers.
I just Google-searched
"dialectics".
I still don't know
what it means.
Poles.
Two sides.
America, Mexico.
Legal, illegal.
The four men he mentioned?
No obvious connection
between them and the case.
They're all rich,
American, and they're white.
Like Judge Gates.
And Maria's the opposite.
Where does he have her?
He has gone silent.
Unless he calls again,
we're waiting on him.
Mind if I leave, Lieutenant?
- Happy birthday.
- Thank you.
Oh, I almost forgot.
These are for you, Kitty.
- Happy birthday.
- Oh, my goodness.
That's from me and Sonya.
Oh, oh
well, thanks to both of you.
Why did you say that?
It made her happy.
But they're not from me.
It's just a white lie.
What's the harm?
But it just isn't true.
Sometimes you say things that
aren't true to make people feel good.
Her name's Marina.
You seen her?
_
I knocked at the front, but
I-I'm sorry, I know it's late.
I'd like to have a
word with you.
Uh, yeah.
I mean, come in.
Thank you.
So you're in trouble
because you helped us on the bridge?
Um, I don't care about
the complaint, but, um some
of the officers reported
I took money from you.
You didn't.
That's how you can help me.
If you could sign this statement
that there was no payment
Of course.
I feel like a schoolkid asking
for a note that I wasn't bad in class.
You weren't bad in class.
I'm surprised they care.
I thought all Mexican
cops took bribes.
Not me.
I'm sorry.
I
didn't mean anything by that.
It's all right.
Again, I'm sorry
about your husband.
He had a good life.
Yeah, I can see.
He wasn't a good person,
if you want to know the truth.
Marriages go
up and down, right?
- You're married?
- Yeah.
And right
now, is it up or down?
You were very kind
to me on the bridge.
Well
Unlike that woman.
She was just
following the rules.
You remember things like that.
When people are good to you.
I want to let you rest.
I'm not tired.
This-this place
I know, sorry, but
this place is a dump.
Oh.
Thanks.
Why? Why you live here?
You have money.
I grew up here.
Hey, by the way, I am
sorry about being a girl today.
You know that's insulting.
I'm a girl.
Sorry about that.
Sorry about calling you a girl
and then you are a girl, so
Hey, how did you, um
how did you get the
job with the Times?
- Same way you did.
- No.
No, I went to fancy schools, and
my family is super connected so
I went to UT.
Yeah, but how?
What do you mean?
Look, your sister she's
like 18 and she has three kids.
- She's 20.
- Whatever.
Or your cousins.
Like, how
did you not get stuck
here, pregnant, watching
novelas the rest of your life?
There are ways
to not get pregnant.
Oh, come on, please.
You got to tell me.
Will you just please stop
sassing me and tell me why?
For reals.
Look
I didn't mess around with boys.
Like, strategically?
No.
I don't like them.
And that saved me, in a way.
Huh.
Don't think
we're friends or anything now,
just 'cause I told you some ***.
Does that mean we can't cuddle?
What's your take on Stokes?
Spooky but dumb.
You don't think he could
pull off these killings?
Hank, I don't think he
could find a Mexican in Mexico.
What are you doing here?
I can't have sex at work.
Well, good night.
Thought I'd say hello.
I don't have your number.
So
can I have your number?
Oh.
Sure.
Would you ever
want to have dinner?
Oh, I have to be somewhere now.
Another night.
You really shouldn't come here.
I won't.
Sorry.
Okay.
Cesar?
Cesar?
- Yeah?
- We found Maria.
- Where?
- Go online.
El Paso Times.
What do you think he's doing?
_
I think he's gonna
let the desert take her.
Right before our eyes.
