30 Years of fine American rum
Duque rum. Duque.
Thank you,pancho.
No,thank you.
Thanyou,thank you very much,everybody. 30 yrs,pancho.
Thank you,gracias,thank you.
Thank you for your work.
Give me a mojito,please
Where's alejandro?
Oh,yes,senator,ethanol got quite a shove in the president's address.
You see,the question is whether it's going to come from corn or sugar.
so we're trying to capture a new market segment,
you know,through advertising concepts and web promotionssubaru
it's time for the duque brand to catapult itself into the world's top five.
Our rivals want to move up the global ladder,too.
The difference is we can succeed.
And we're really looking forward to seeing
you and your beautiful wife at our family's party on the fourth.
Uh,maybe we can get you to dance to a little of our cuban music,huh?
Did you used to work for bacardi?
I worked for global marketing in london,sir,for five years.
Five Ysubaru five years?
Ah,there you are,alejandro.
Sorry,pop. I was on the phone with the senator.
Oh,good. Papi.
The samuels meeting's in 15 minutes,pop.
Oh,please,frank.
Papi,joe samuels is dying. Okay?
He's been in a coma for six months.
His kids want to turn over a new leaf.
I think we should hear 'em out.
-It's a waste of time,frank. -Papi,please.
Let it never be said the duques hold a grudge.
Let's go meet the samuels.
After allsubaru come on.
Hey,uh,pop,why don't you go with frank?
I got a bunch of calls I got to make.
All right.
Gracias.
Sugarcane Fields Playa Azul,Florida
Thank you for seeing us,mr. Duque.
I'm sorry my sister's getting here so late.
We wanted to come out here where our fields meet.
As you know,our family owns 200,000 acres of sugarcane.
We would like to buy your 175,000 acres,se?r duque.
In return,we'll sell you all the molasses you need
to make rum at 10% below world-market rate.
And yes,we will put that in writing,frank.
I'm sorry I'm late,gentlemen.
So to what do we owe this generosity,mr.Samuels?
Our business is sugar.
Sugar has become an afterthought for you. You're in spirits now.
Our offer will save you $135 million over the next three years.
The cash from the sale you could put back into your spirits business.
Sugar has become a nuisance.
Tree-huggers,offshore labor advocates,
everyone treating us like we've just laid a turd on the table.
Ellis.
And then there's the politicians.
So why does your family want more sugar,then,ms.Samuels?
Well,like my brother said-- our only business is sugar.
I know your family farmed these fields with their own hands,mr.Duque.
We respect that.
We are all americans here,and I know when you started buying land,
my father resented it and maybe you feel he took advantage of you at a tragic time.
But our father's dying.
He's had 24-hour care for the last six months.
We are offinerg you a good deal.
Are we in the ballpark here,mr.Duque?
Your offer sounds reasonable.
I'll consider it.
Well,doctor,I guess I'm noast tough as I look,huh?
No,no,you're still a tiger,panch.
Have you tried the pastelitos?
Pastelitos?
How do you think I got this way,eh?
Steamed broccoli and chicken salad?
All right,so tell me: How long do I have?
Six months. A year.
It's time to tell your family,panchi,topor favor.
Take amalia on a cruise,enjoy yourselves.
Hey?
good morning.
buenos dias,nice to see you.
it costs $3,200 a year to educate each kid.
Butsubaru it's not the money,joan. We need teachers.
Hey,guys.
-Hey,artie. -Hey,katie.
-Hey,artie. -Hi,mom.
You want your batting gloves?
No,no,no,he doesn't need his gloves,mom.
Hey,remember,eyes on point of contact.
Load up your wrists just like I taught you.
Okay,jamie. Dad's coming.
Okay,I'll talk to you a little later.
He's on the phone.
Hey,but he always shows up,right?
Don't forget that.
-Artie. -Hey,dad.
-How you feeling? -Good .
All right,remember,no circus catches.
The really great ones make the hard plays look easy.
-Like clemente. -Okay,dad.
Go for it! All right,baby,good luck!
I can't watch this.
Dad,stop worrying,artie's good.
He's gonna make the all-star team. You just watch,all right?
-he'll be all right. -He's good,he's good,he's good.
There he goes.
I can't,I can't,I can'T.
artie!
artie! Go,artie!
Good job,son,good job.
Next up,number eleven,nick marks.
-All right,nicky. -Let's go,nicky.
You can do it!
which kid is yours?
No kid.
Nice day.
do I know you?
Me?
No.You make mistake.
I know you.
No. You made a mistake.
I got it,I got it!
Dad.
Did you see my diving catch?
oh,that's great,son,that's great.
Hi,mr vega.
Hi,mom.
I got you some stuff for your dorm.
Blankets,sheets,pillow.
Okay,I can buy my own things,mom,thanks.
Hijo,por favor,I am really trying not to be a cuban mother?
mom,relax.Trust me,okay?
Jamie,who are these kids?
That one's my dad.
When he came from cuba with pedro pan.
Who's pedro pan?
Like peter pan.
The kids flew from havana...
no,no,no.It was an airlift.
Look. You see? Right here.
After the revolution,a lot of cuban parents sent their kids to miami
to grow up in foster homes and... most were reunited with their families.
Alex wasn'T.
That's why my parents adopted him.
And you guys got married? That is so romantic.
You never told me that story,jamie.
Jamie?
So we'll see you at grandpa's?
Yeah. Okay,let's go.
Bye,mom.
Jaime.***
Yeah,well,I can be over there in about an hour.
Right. Bye.
Alex.
Who was that man at the park?
Nothing.
Business.
-You looked strange. -Did I?
Well,you know,business can do that to you.
No,just some stuff with the cane workers.
I'm going to have to go into miami for a while.
Papa wants us over for dinner tonight.
I'll be over there as soon as I can,just don'T...
"don't hold dinner for me. " I know.
what?
There's something I want to talk to you about.
It's just that,it's a bad time right now,isabel.
Can we talk tonight?
Okay.
I'm sorry.
Got him,alex.
Yeah,his name is luis quinones.
That's him.
Came over from cuba in '61,then moved to the dominican in '73.
He had a record before he left.
Three weeks ago,he applied to come back to the states on a h-2 visa.
Sugar worker.
What was it that you picked him up for?
'73,assault.
Victim wouldn't testify.
Also picked up '69,'71.
Yeah,quinones,he was a field pusher out in belle glade.
Got into a machete fight with a jamaican cane-cutter.
Mutilated him pretty good.
Who was it that he was working for back in '73?
'73... samuels sugar.
And who was it that sponsored that visa this time?
Samuels sugar.
Alex,quinones is a bad guy.
And I'm telling you that as a cop and as an old friend.
I mean,he's A... he's a very bad guy.
Okay.
Talk to me.
Let's go out for a drink,man.
Not now,vince.
Ah,enrique.
Oh... your brother and that girl...
she's going to have to get pregnant.
Ay,mami,por dios.
Hey,how else is she going to get enrique down the aisle?
It's your fault,mami.
Ah,henry.
Still looking for somebody like you.
Yeah?
You're looking in the wrong place.
♪♪♪
Frankie... francisco...
I need to talk to pop,okay?
Cono,henry... yeah?
How's the... how's the club business treating you?
Oh,it's great.
I'm closing a deal with a label-- duque musica.
We'll do reggaeton,hybrid,traditional...
'cause we could use you r theonum side.
And you know how papi feels about that nightclub crap.
Come on,frankie,pop doesn't know everything,man.
Okay,duque's a brand.
-We're not exploiting the brand. -Hello,stephanie.
♪♪♪
So you think pop will sell to the samuels?
It's a good deal,henry.
And sugarcane was back then,this is now.
What I could do with that money... duque night clubs in vegas,dubai...
-the duque brand on everything... -papi,we need to talk.
Where's alex?
-He's not here. -Uncle henry.
-Hey,pop,can we talk? -Did you bring stephanie?
Yeah,steph's here,but can we talk for a second?
Good. She's a good girl. We'll wait for alex.
Uncle henry,I need to go to your club saturday night.
I don't think your parents are going to be down with that,katie.
You can watch me.
I'll behave.
I... I guess if it's okay with your mom.
Mom,guess what?
-Mom? -What?
Uncle henry says I can go to the club saturday.
What?
Ave maria.
It's not my fault!
She's only 17.
So,papi,we want to talk about the deal.
No,let's just wait for alex.
But I'm 17,uncle henry said he'll watch me.
And who's going to watch uncle henry?
What?
You have to be watched.
♪♪♪
papi,you were a rum maker in cuba.
That's what we all grew up hearing from you,papi.
The duque name meant rum.
Okay,not sugar.
Sugar was a means to an end.
Why are we even considering this,pop?
Can I finish?
Bacardi doesn't manufacture theimoown r lasses.
They buy the best available on the world market.
We can buy ours from the samuels for the next ten years
subaru the samuels are snakes.
What the hell did they do that was so bad,alex?
Okay,tell me.
All americans tried to run us out of business when we got here.
And joe samuels saw an upstart cuban moving in on his business
and he tried to put a stop to it.
And now that old bastard is dying.
They want to buy our sugar,papi,'cause they're in the sugar business.
You want to know why they want to buy our sugar,frank?
I was talking to senator barnes today.
The government is now ready to support
the production of ethanol from sugar instead of corn.
It's ten times more efficient.
Sugar is the new oil.
Today,you're putting it in your coffee.
Tomorrow,we're going to be driving our cars with it.
I'm talking about billions of dollars here.
That's why the samuels want our sugar.
What're you talking about?
Sugar ethanol instead of corn ethanol?
The corn farmers would riot.
The president is ready to take that chance.
This is happening right now,frank.
Those are ruined sugarcane fields in cuba.
It may not be next month; it may not be next year,
but cuba is going to open its door to american business again.
Cuban sugar is going to become the world's fuel.
And when it does,we still want be in the game.
Wow,oh,so that's it,alex?
You think that you can become the saudi prince of ethanol?
You're really a piece of work,you know that?
The way you play people in this family.
You're not even a duque.
♪♪♪
Rum is sexy.
Rum put the duque name on the map.
Rum's only good for one thing.
I say we stay in the sugar business,pop.
Papi,whose side are you on,huh?
His side or your family's?
You're both my family.
Look,I'm sorry.
Pop,if you want to sell,for whatever reason,in your gut,
if you want to sell,we sell.
But not to the samuels!
Never to the samuels.
♪♪♪
So? What do you know,alex?
His name is luis quinones.
He was at artie's all-star try-outs today.
The samuels sponsored his h-2 visa.
He worked for them back in '73 and he's working for them now.
They killed lucia,pop.
The samuels killed your daughter.
It's not a coincidence that this guy's here now.
Pop,I'm sorry.
♪♪♪
Congratulations.
All-star.
Mom,mom,mom,mom,mom,mom,mom,mom!
Mom,I made it!
I made the all-star team,I made the all-star team,yes!
Mom,I'm an all-star,yes!
What?You made it,artie!
I can't believe I made the all-star team.
Unless you want to tell me what's going on?
It was a long time ago,vince.
Before I knew you.
What happened,alex?
Uhsubaru no,I can't,not now.
But there is a reason that this guy quinones is back.
Okay.
I'll follow him for a while,see what's going on.
I've got to keep him away from my family,vince.
I hear you.
Thanks,vince.
Morning,mr.Vega.
I have the market research numbers
from the diet cola strategy that you wanted to discuss.
May I?
When we use the term "zero carbs,"
our rum drinkers express a preference.
- Hey. - Hey,jamie.
- Am I interrupting? - No.
If you'll excuse us,diana,we'll talk later.
Of course.
- Good morning,ms.Mann. - Morning.
You look like crap,dad.
Really?
Thanks.
So,to what do I owe the honor of a visit at this hour?
Well,I don't know how else to say this,so I'm just gonna say it.
I don't want to go to mit in the fall.
You didn't go to college.
Let's go get un caf?
I didn't go to college,jaime,because I went into the army.
And when I got out,pancho needed me in the business.
Dos caf?,por favor.
Did grandpa want you to enlist?
,Noi did that on my own.
Oh,really?
Okay,well,sometimes I hear things,dad.
You know,how you'd do anything to get on grandpa's good side.
Like enlistsubaru or marry mom.
Hmm.
That's what you hear?
Frank thinks that I married your mom to get on pancho's good side,huh?
Gracias.
Frank's blind.
I'll tell you,I did everything in my power,
not tosubaru including almost marrying another woman.
Your mother,she showed up at that wedding,she stopped it.
That's right,your mother was something.
Still is.
Try some of that good stuff.
You trying to tell me something about rebecca?
I love her,dad.
And you still will be able to love her after you finish college.
Don't think I didn't hear this whole thing about you not wanting to go to mit.
You're going to go to mit,and,
when you graduate,if you want,you're going to work
your way up in this business just like everybody else.
Then you can marry rebecca.
But you married mom when she was 17.You guys didn't even
then you can marry rebecca,jaime,after you finish college.
why don't we merge our companies the old fashioned way?
Save a boatload of trouble down the pike.
In cuba,they have a saying,"everything comes to those who wait.
" They also say,"todo en la vida se paga.
" What's that mean?
Treachery has its price.
Hey,jamie.
Nice and warm,huh?
I'm gonna miss you.
I'm gonna miss you,too.
Have you told your dad why you're not going to mit?
No.Not yet.
You think he might try to talk you out of it?
It won't work.
You still have to tell him.
I will.
At the party on the fourth.
Then you'll see some real fireworks.
Are you sure it's what you want?
- Because you know - cannonball!
Artie,come on.
That was a good one.
- Dude,get out of here. - No,you get out of here.
- here it comes. - Here comes what?
We are letting you go see your cousin tonight
because we trust you,okay?
Don't break that trust,katie.
It's a hard thing to get back.
I know,dad.
Okay,let me see.
Ave maria.
Why don't you justsubaru just wear this,okay?
- go on. - Okay.
Okay,wear it.
Katie,let's go!
We've got to drive all the way to miami.
Yo,katie girl,watch yourself.
becky,you got inked?
Yeah.
It's just like mine.
You know what this means,right?
You're mine forever.
Yeah,unless I meet someone with your exact same tattoo while you're gone.
yeah,uh-huh.
I'll be back,baby.I promise.
Are you the next duque rum girl?
It runs in rolling stone and a bunch of other magazines this month.
Girls just send their pictures to our website--
luciaduquerum.Com.
The response has been crazy.Seriously.
Gorgeous girls in bikinis,thongs,you name it.
Check it out.
How many pigs are we going to get,uncle frank?
We got to feed a lot of people on the fourth.
It's a tradition.
Kind of a disgusting tradition,if you ask me.
Oh,yeah?
You think those big macs just show up wrapped in cellophane,huh,jaime?
See,now this is the best part of being cuban.
You got the food,you got cigarssubaru
and if pop listens to me,you got the rum mojitos.Huh?
See,we're going to cash out of the sugar business,artie.
It's going to be a win-win.
Let's take a little walk,frank.
Hmm?
I'm not selling the sugarcane to the samuels,frank.
Now,bad things might come of that.
I don't want you to handle them alone.
I'm making alex president and ceo of the company.

I love you,frank.
But for reasons you don't know subaru
you're just not the right man for the job.
What are you talking abo ?
UtI'm up to the job.Popsubaru no,don't do this.
When you were a boy,you almost died.
I'm not that sickly little kid anymore,papi.

Yousubaru no,you're wrong.You're wrong.
The women,the boats,the money.

No,no,this is not okay with me.
I'm not asking your permission.

He's never gonna see past this.
We're family.Frank'll put that first.
Let's go talk to the samuels.
No,pop,it's not the right time.
I have to get some things in order,okay?
Alejandro,now is the time.
You trust my judgment?
You know I do.
Hey,papi,I love you.

I'm gonna take time and travel with my wife.
Alex will be the new head of the company.
Well,is there anything we can do to change your mind,mr.Duque?
Where's frank?
He couldn't be here.
I'm sorry about your father's poor health.
Congratulations,mr.Vega.
I know you will represent the interests of the duque family as if they were your own.
excuse me,everyone.
A toast.
To my brother.
daddy,no!No!
What the hell are you doing in my house?
Dad,leave him alone!
Yousubaru no,dad.
Mr.Vega!I can handle him.
Mr.Quinones gave me that bat.
Mr.Vega!
Okay.You all right?
You see?You had children,too.
Get him off of the property!
Dad,no.Stop.
Okay,okay.Okay,artie.
What's going on,dad?
news of your impending demise has been greatly exaggerated.
I know it was you.
You had that animal quinones and his brother
take that baby from her crib on the day she turned three.
Papi,They took lucia
They want money for her
Because you thought it would make pancho sell you the sugar.
And it worked.
Sign your name right here.
You're doing the right thing,pancho.
You can always start again.
It's a good deal for you.
Pancho never connected you to the kidnapping,
but I was there.
alejandro?
It wasn't pancho who shot quinones and his brother.
It was me.
And so here we are again.
You know what I want.
I want lucia back home with her parents.
Quinones will never threaten my family again.
You send anyone else,I will come for you.
I'm the one that you will deal with now.
Are you done?
'Cause I have to go to bed now.
Lock the door on your way out.
senor vega.
You asked me what the job was.
Uh-huh.
Let's go
Whoa!Whoa!
wow!
I report to fort benning in 60 days.
I have him What should I do?
Finish him?
okay.
