My friends. this gathering was not
supposed to be a press conference
:55:07
as much as a get-together.
:55:10
But l"ve just been handed
a piece of news.
:55:13
Rafael is dead.
:55:17
He has been killed in an ambush
near Matagalpa.
:55:21
- Mr President!
- How many people killed?
:55:23
Sorry. my friends. No questions. please.
:55:27
A press release is being prepared.
:55:29
Call Washington.
:55:34
What do you think?
:55:36
Tacho makes that speech about
every six months. Maybe he got lucky.
:55:40
- Hub. is this for real?
- Yeah. sure.
:55:43
Russel. excuse me. but Miss Panama
would like her picture taken with Tacho.
:55:48
- ln colour?
- OK. A little embarrassing. huh?
:55:54
Señor presidente.
:55:56
Listo, listo.
:55:58
That"ll be fine right there.
:56:03
How in the hell could Tacho find Rafael?
:56:06
Russel. please. l have my hands full.
:56:11
That"s fine right there.
:56:13
ls Tacho lying again?
They did kill him. didn"t they?
:56:17
What do l know?
:56:19
Tacho needs a victory very badly.
:56:22
He needs to prove to Jimmy Carter
that he is still winning.
:56:26
The death of Rafael is the proof he needs.
:56:28
Carter doesn"t need proof. He just sent
25 million in new arms to Tacho.
:56:32
No. no. He didn"t.
:56:35
The State Department is getting nervous
about what is going on down here.
:56:40
En el sol, por favor.
:56:46
Pardon my French.
but whose fucking side are you on?
:56:49
- l work for everybody.
- That"s a great job.
:56:54
l send messages to Jimmy and l tell him
that the revolution is a flood
:56:57
which cannot be stopped.
but it can be controlled.
