:08:01
Someone should be....
:08:04
-There you are.
-Good evening, gentlemen.
:08:07
I should say, good morning.
:08:11
I'm Michael Tasker.
I'm a big fan, Mr. Gillespie.
:08:15
Thank you. This is Arturo--
:08:16
Arturo Sandoval, yes, petition for asylum.
:08:20
How long's this gonna take?
:08:22
Red tape respects no boundaries.
That's an international fact of life.
:08:26
-If you'd like to--
-This is the American Embassy.
:08:28
I know you got some
apple pie around here.
:08:32
I think we can arrange something.
:08:36
-You be cool.
-Thank you, Diz.
:08:38
Enjoy. Right this way.
:08:42
Your Mr. Gillespie
is one of the few people...
:08:44
...who can open this place
in the middle of the night.
:08:47
Have a seat and I'll be back in a moment.
:08:51
Thank you.
:08:53
Coffee?
:08:55
Thank you, yes.
:09:03
I'm scared.
:09:09
Trust me.
:09:31
I think I should explain...
:09:33
...there are certain criteria that must be
met before we can grant asylum.
:09:38
An individual must prove
that he is unable to return...
:09:41
...to his homeland for fear of persecution.
:09:44
I understand. That's why I'm here.
:09:47
You've been touring
with Mr. Gillespie's United Nation band.
:09:51
-Are you here with your family?
-No.
:09:54
My wife and son
are waiting for me in London.
:09:57
-You're seeking asylum for them as well?
-Yes.
