Elvis and the Antelope obtain weapons from their apartment and tail Maite and Rubén to a restaurant. Elvis admires Maite from afar and begins to fantasize about a reality in which he could approach a woman like her. When Maite and Rubén finish eating, Elvis and the Antelope tail the pair back to Maite’s apartment. Elvis calls El Mago and meets his boss at a nearby intersection. He fills El Mago in on his attempt to flush Leonora out using the code in the newspaper and about El Güero’s injuries. Elvis asks if El Gazpacho can join his team to replace the injured El Güero, which infuriates El Mago. El Mago tells him that Anaya is trying to replace the Hawks and take over the work the Hawks have been doing. He claims that the Hawks’ only chance at staying relevant is getting ahold of the film. Elvis’s trust in El Mago is shaken.

Rubén and Maite have sex through the morning. Mid-coitus, Maite knocks over the statue she stole from Leonora. It breaks open, and they discover film canisters inside. Rubén calls Jackie, who tells them to come over at once. When they arrive at Asterisk, Emilio and Arkady are there at Jackie’s request.
