Episode 19

Cuts back to the front of their hotel as Carl and Sami get into a van. Inside are the same three men as before and two young boys about 12 or 13 years old. Both the boys are holding guns and grenades.

Carl
"Whats this a family day trip brought the kids along for the ride, has someone packed a picnic?"

1st Man
"Thats very funny, if only you knew. But you're going to find out these two, they are our best. They go where others can't. Between them they have killed more than 30 men I would choose my words and actions with them carefully."

Sami
"Are you for real these are killers they should be playing with an xbox not an uzi."

1st Man
"Killing is all they know, they grow with it, its in their blood and we want you to accompany them to a restaurant that we know some people will be at, its simple you walk in with the boys and start shooting at everyone everything. No one will suspect you, you will be fine the boys are with you all will be good, trust me."

Sami
"This is a joke right, you can't be serious these two kids are going to help us shoot up a restaurant."

1st Man
"You seem more concerned about the kids than those we want you to kill."

Carl
"We don't care about them its about us, we want to make sure we get to win and like they say never work with children or animals."

2nd Man
"Here are your weapons. We will park a short walk from the restaurant it's an open cantina. You walk up and you start to shoot. Keep the guns behind you as you walk."

The van stops at a corner.

1st Man
"Walk to the end of this street and turn right at the corner on your left about 50 meters up the road you will see the place."

2nd man to the boys said in Spanish they both nod.

1st Man
"You know where it is don't you boys?"

1st Man
"Walk up to it slowly when you are a few yards away start shooting its simple."

Sami
Easy for you to say.

Carl
"Lets just do it and get on with the challenge. Fuck this is really pushing me to my limits. But I fucking love it. Just fucking love it."

Carl, Sami and the two boys get out of the van. All of them carrying guns. They walk around the corner and up a dusty looking street. Can hear music and laughter coming from an open courtyard which is the restaurant. They walk up to the entrance as they do so one of the boys throws a grenade into the restaurant and they all open fire. Chaos ensues people running screaming trying to get away from the hail of bullets. They continue firing until they run out of ammunition. The two boys throw grenades in then they all turn and run back to the van.

Sami
"Oh my god I've never felt so alive."

Carl
"I can't believe we just did that….That was amazing! Unbelievable!"

2nd Man
"See we told you it was easy, we'll take you back to your hotel. On Thursday morning we'll pick you up. You have a couple of days to relax now take in the joys of Mexico be a tourist."

Cuts back to the studio."

Johnny Paradis'
"This just gets better and better folks on the one show mass slaughter and decapitations ! What other show would give you this ? If you have the answer please keep it to yourself ha,ha,ha,ha no ones interested. Bill and Stacey what do you think about all this?"

Cuts back to the hospital room.

Bill
"Well Johnny I just wish we had a chance like those guys to prove ourselves."

Stacey
"These two teams are amazing. I mean both of them really have what it takes to win I'm just so impressed, I'm speechless I really am."

Johnny Paradis'
"Luckily I'm not because I'm the host of the show, thanks for your input guys I think we all agree these two teams are something special. Nothing is going to stop them from competing. We're going to see something very, very special in this final I can tell. We're going to briefly check in with our contestants and see how they feel."

Cuts to Kurt and Lucy in a bar having a drink. They speak with Johnny via their ipads. Images are broadcast onto the giant video screen in the studio.

Johnny Paradis'
"Well hello there guys how are you feeling after completing that little assignment for the cartel it was so good to see you not lose your heads ha,ha,ha,ha."

Kurt
"But we made sure they did didn't we ha,ha but seriously Johnny we're feeling really good really positive. I've never done anything like that in my life before that was really something I can tell you."

Lucy
"There was a moment there where I thought he wasn't going to do it but we both came through with flying colours. Carl and Sami had better watch out we're coming to get the big one. Ain't nothing or no one going to stop us. Not now, not after that."

Cuts back to Johnny.

Johnny Paradis'
"I can believe that. Lets just quickly check in with Carl and Sami and see how they are.
Johnny walks back toward the giant video screen. Cuts to Carl and Sami sitting in a bar with the two young boys. They speak with Johnny via their ipads. Images are broadcast onto the giant video screen in the studio. The two boys sit there staring emotionlessly forward."

Johnny Paradis'
"Hi, Carl and Sami, and hi to your two new friends. How is everything going now?"

Carl
"We're great Johnny really excited and relived that this part of the challenge is over and we are just really looking forward to Thursday thats when the real test begins."

Sami
"Weren't these two little guys great once you see them in action you know why the cartel holds them in such high esteem. We thought the least we could do for them is take them out and buy them lunch they won't take any money from us but we have ordered them ipads."

Johnny Paradis'
"And are you ready for Thursday? Have you got your games faces on?"
Sami
"Oh we're ready alright, its game on and we are going to give it everything we're ready."

Cuts back to Johnny in the studio.

1st Man
"We are asking you to complete a small favour for us and in return we will assist you in what you want to complete you won't be going alone two of our best men will go with you and make sure everything goes ok."

2nd Man
"You will be in no danger no one will suspect you, you will be able to get very close to them and then you can kill as many of them as you can."

Carl
"We can do this, we will do this always said nothing we wouldn't do to win and this is really going to prove it."

Sami
"Is there anything else we can do, surely there must be something else, and if you can't close to these people why are two of your guys coming with us."

1st Man
"The choice is yours this is our offer take it or leave it."

Carl
"This is it step up or step the fuck off....If we want to stay in the game and win we have to do this, we don't have any other choice."

Sami
"I know, I know doesn't make it any easier though....I want to win, I said there wasn't anything I wouldn't do we'll do it you just show us where and when."

Carl

Tommy
"I'm really impressed with them that wouldn't be easy to do but they've really stepped up. But I suppose they have to do it yet. Until then its all words it's their actions that are going to count."

Sarah
"I don't know if I could do it, I mean thats a big ask I'm just glad I'm not in their position. They have such a difficult choice make. I don't envy them at all."
