You know there's a place down here that might be kind of nice for a guy in your situation. Ever think about going to Managua?

Scanlon

Managua... shit, there's no way I can go to Managua.

Scanlon

Where am I going?

Vinnie

All I can say is it's a good place to lay low.

Scanlon

Why?

Vinnie

It's the kind of place nobody wants to go looking.

Scanlon

You wanna tell me where I'm going?

Vinnie

I swear to Christ I don't know.

Where are you from?

Scanlon

Listen Pancho, I've been clocking you every second you've been in this town. If you wanna pick your nose in this truck, you better clear it with me first, otherwise I'm taking you and this nitro right into a ditch!

Scanlon

We're carrying three cases each. One is enough to blow out your fire, six cases will blow out the whole field. That means you don't think all the trucks will make it, one of us is a backup.

"Serrano"

We want double, and legal residence... or we don't drive.

You leave in four hours.

Scanlon

You read about this place in the travel brochures?

"Serrano"

I heard it had a healthy climate.

Scanlon

Not what you expected though?

"Serrano"

It was exactly what I expected!

Scanlon
[Nilo has been shot]

What're you gonna do with all that money, you hump? Talk to me! What're you gonna do?

Get... laid! Best whore in Managua!

Scanlon

Two whores! Two best whores in Managua!

You do it. For me.
