Episode Report Card Drunken Bee: B+ | 61 USERS: B+ YOU GRADE IT Welcome to the Border
By Drunken Bee | Season 4 | Episode 1 | Aired on 2008.06.16
Nancy and Guillermo peer through binoculars at the border fence. He wonders if she's ever been to Tijuana, you know, like a crazy white girl weekend, tequila, donkey show and the like. Nancy worries more about the birds swooping around her and then gets the rundown from Guillermo about what the numbers on the wall mean. On one side, it's for law enforcement to know what sections to patrol, on the other, it marks territory for drug runners. Guillermo's crowd has 324 through 666. The irony is not lost on Nancy; in fact it is not lost on anyone, even the non-sentient dust molecules floating around me as I type. We get it; Guillermo is the devil. Nancy wants to know what her job is and Guillermo tells her all she needs to do is be a pretty, white lady. He talks about the big money-- he's two years from retirement now -- and she tells him she won't bring heroin. He remarks on her arbitrary rules, but she sticks to them. Their conversation gets cut short by three guys streaming by with duffle bags presumably stuffed with drugs, who hop into the bed of Guillermo's truck and get under a tarp. He saunters over to them, turns back to Nancy and crows "Welcome to the border!" I think I'm happy to be out of Majestic.
