SOMEWHERE OVER THE CARIBBEAN
I\'ve got a break in my fate line,
Try to think about something else until we reach Cuba,
She needs a drink,
The fortune teller warned me not to board this flight!
We\'ll be in Havana in two hours,
We\'ll find you a healer to straighten out that line,
It\'s broken, not crooked,
You\'re not thinking straight,
Drink this, You look awful,
I\'ve never even seen the sea, I don\'t want to die!
Calm down, or we\'re all going to die!
What are you two doing?
We need the restroom for a moment, She\'s feeling sick,
It won\'t take long,
Make it quick,
-You shouldn\'t be in here, -Please, don\'t…
Please,
What now?
I forgot that restroom is out of order,
We need to use the one in first class because she\'s not doing well,
No, she needs to wait here until we arrive in 30 minutes,
Thirty minutes?
-We\'re two hours from Cuba, -And you\'re two seconds from dying!
Sit down, Now!
Not until you tell us where we\'re headed,
I told you to sit down! Now!
Hey! As passengers, we have the right to know what\'s going on,
Look, sir…
Hey!
The People\'s Revolutionary Front has taken control of this plane!
What?
We\'re going to Aruba to negotiate so the oppressive few in power
start working for the masses,
You are our bargaining chips,
If the president doesn\'t comply with our demands,
you\'ll end up dying as martyrs and revolutionaries,
What\'s going on here?
-Revolution or death! -Revolution or death!
Get back to your seats!
Heads down!
Hands on the seat in front of you,
Now! Hands where I can see them!
Shut up!
Heads down!
Heads down! Everybody! Now,
We\'re all going to die!
THE HIJACKING OF FLIGHT 601
CHAPTER 2 DEATH AT HER HEELS
Listen closely,
If our demands aren\'t met in six hours, a passenger is going to die,
This message came in an hour ago,
The government will handle the prisoners as soon as they start releasing hostages,
However, Deputy Minister Esguerra says that Aerobolívar has to pay the $200,000,
Sir! I\'m glad you could make it,
I was explaining that my proposal--
I\'m already up to speed, Thank you,
Gentlemen, I propose that we navigate this shit show intelligently
and make it out with our reputation intact,
Misael Pastrana should be the one handling this shit,
All in favor?
Okay, I will call Misael right now to let him know,
Because I\'ll be in deep shit if I\'m late to my daughter Raquel\'s debutante ball,
Remain seated, please,
Sir, if the government screws this up and a passenger dies,
it\'s our name on the plane, not Pastrana\'s,
In big letters,
I propose we negotiate the ransom with the hijackers
before the media dubs us "Aerobolívar, the airline of massacres,"
This requires an absolute majority,
Noted,
All in favor of selling 10% of the gentleman\'s shares
and having our powerful legal team negotiate the ransom?
The exhaust from the turbines must have gotten to your head,
"Powerful legal team"? These idiots let a mechanic--
An engineer,
…a union man, Álvaro Aristides Pirateque Usuga,
become our manager,
The next time you try to steal my airline,
wash your hands so you don\'t leave any greasy fingerprints,
This airline will not pay a single cent of that ransom!
That is final!
Are we going to entrust the future of Aerobolívar to that crook Pastrana,
who rigged the elections?
-Or are we going to trust-- -Gentlemen,
-Or are we going to trust a man like me? -Sorry,
A man who single-handedly won over this distinguished board?
Flight 601 is about to land in Aruba,
-What are they doing there? -Heard of the Aruban Special Forces?
-No, -Take note,
To eat shit or not to eat shit? That is the question,
All in favor of selling 10% of the shares,
and for me, as manager, to handle negotiations
so this gentleman can go to his ball?
Aye,
Cabin crew, we\'re at 10,000 feet,
Prepare for landing,
Nice job, Captain,
Keep going,
To the end of the runway, Come on,
PRINCESS BEATRIX AIRPORT ORANJESTAD, ARUBA
Put on your handcuffs,
Put on your handcuffs!
-What if I need to pee? -Then do it,
Turn the engine off,
The curtains, Close the curtains, now!
Curtains closed!
Put me through to El Dorado,
El Dorado Tower, this is Aerobolívar 601, Do you copy?
El Dorado Tower, Aerobolívar 601, Do you copy?
CURE FOR NOSTALGIA VOLUME II
MANAGER
There\'s no alcohol in the office, like you ordered,
I don\'t remember asking for something that stupid,
In your infinite wisdom,
you say plenty of stupid things and then don\'t remember,
But today, I will let you have…
a drink,
Thank you,
But only if you tell Chavarriaga you were wrong,
that stupidity runs in your family, and you won\'t be the negotiator,
Don\'t treat me like I\'m stupid,
Only good humor runs in my family,
I know what I\'m doing,
I\'m treating you like you\'re stupid because that\'s how you\'re acting!
You\'re throwing everything you\'ve built out the window,
Take note,
When you think about it,
I have a 50% chance of successfully negotiating this,
And a 50% chance of failing,
-You know what my secret is? -What?
If I have even a 1% chance of making it,
I\'m diving right in,
Just 1%,
Thanks to 1% chances, I got this office,
And thanks to those 1% chances, we\'re going to secure our place here,
Because when Bolívar came to power,
so did Mancholita Sáenz,
With 2%,
we\'ll get rid of Chavarriaga for good and take over this airline together,
Together?
Together,
We have flight 601 on the radio,
It\'s showtime,
-Sir? -What are you doing?
The radio goes there,
Everyone needs to hear this, Manchola!
-Yeah? -The recorder,
-I\'ll get it, -Carolina, make some room,
Orlando, bring me the maps, We will have one, single voice!
Eyes and ears here, Let\'s save our colleagues!
Get the maps!
-Where\'s the recorder? -Here it is,
Put it over here, Okay, let\'s do this,
One, single voice! Let\'s do this! Together, All right,
Move aside,
Hey!
Aerobolívar base to flight 601,
Do you copy?
Go ahead, 601,
This is Álvaro Aristides Pirateque, manager of Aerobolívar,
Who is this?
I want a representative of Pastrana\'s illegitimate government,
Deputy Minister Esguerra told me that the president
will make a statement once you start releasing hostages,
We won\'t release anyone, especially not for free,
I want a government representative,
Proving you\'re a man of your word is worth something,
The president needs proof that once your demands are met,
you\'re going to release the passengers,
Who\'s a man of his word?
The one who\'s willing to die for the people,
or the one who massacred 30 students
instead of admitting that he rigged the election?
$200,000, and I\'ll let them go,
The president hasn\'t authorized the payment of the ransom,
But I have,
The airline will pay,
But you have to trust me,
I don\'t know you,
I am divorced,
My wife and I had issues, The usual,
Now I\'ve met someone special, but I don\'t want to…
I\'m enjoying my freedom, I\'m… a Taurus, What\'s your sign?
What?
What? I don\'t believe in that crap,
But I assure you, I can be worse than cancer,
You can always trust a Cancer,
Were you baptized?
What\'s your name?
Ulises,
Ulises, I\'m here to help you,
I want to give you the money, but I need you to release a hostage,
Anyone, I guarantee that in four hours, you\'ll have at least
30… 50,000 dollars,
Quit clowning around, I have the captain at gunpoint,
Are you calling me a clown?
I said I want my money now, you clown!
$50,000 is no joke,
$200,000 is,
Get me a real terrorist on the line,
What are you, a Hollywood movie villain?
This isn\'t a goddamn movie,
Four hours to pay and for the president to speak, or a passenger dies!
No, this is not a movie,
This illegitimate president legitimately has me by the balls,
Release someone, dammit! Anyone you want!
Or this damn negotiation isn\'t going anywhere!
The son of a bitch hung up,
I volunteer to leave,
No one\'s leaving until they pay!
With all due respect, women and children go first--
You don\'t speak unless spoken to,
Nobody is leaving,
-Was there a doctor on the passenger list? -Why?
-We\'re not looking for husbands, Edie, -I\'m looking for a way out,
They need to release a hostage so we can make it home today,
Who do you have in mind?
No, please don\'t make me go out there,
-Calm down, -Don\'t make me go out there,
Don\'t kick me out,
I need to make it look like you\'re pregnant,
-I\'m not pregnant, Just scared, -I know,
But the government wants a hostage released before they negotiate,
There\'s a family with a little girl, How about them?
The hijackers don\'t want to free anyone,
but not even the most heartless person would refuse a woman in labor,
This might save us all,
I don\'t want to sound selfish,
but if I see those bastards, I\'ll have a panic attack,
How about this?
Don\'t look at them,
Close your eyes, hold my hand, and I\'ll walk you out of here,
-No… -What\'s your name?
-Amparo, -Amparo, I\'ll tell you the truth,
Right now, my three kids are at home,
They\'re hungry and have no one they can call for help,
They\'re alone because their dad up and left years ago,
They don\'t have grandparents,
And the woman you see here is the only mom they\'ve got,
They don\'t have anyone else,
And they\'re all I have as well,
Promise you won\'t let go?
Not even for one second,
Okay,
Get me pregnant, then,
Oh my God! Did you shit yourself, bro?
Jesús, where did you get that fucking tamale?
Damn it, I\'ve got a code brown, Move,
-Hey! -Sir, please let me use the restroom,
It won\'t take long, I\'ll be quick, I gotta go,
-Please, -Go ahead,
-This restroom\'s out of order, -What\'s up?
It\'s an emergency, I\'ll take him to first class,
I\'ve got a turtle head poking out, Let me go quick, okay?
-You take him if you want, -Please,
-Okay, go, -Thanks,
The bathroom in the back is out of order, Sorry for the inconvenience,
Listen, girl,
The first-class bathroom is only for those who paid for first class,
Yes, I\'m sorry, ma\'am,
Girl,
Please make sure the bathroom is pristine once he finishes using it,
Okay?
-Of course, -Thanks,
We ask our esteemed first-class passengers to remain silent
to avoid attracting the attention of armed revolutionaries
who are fighting against your oppression and may kill you,
Thank you,
-Is there a doctor? -A doctor?
Is there a doctor on board? Is there a doctor?
-Is anyone a doctor? -No,
-Is there a doctor on board? -For the last time, sit down,
A woman is about to give birth, I\'m going to talk to your boss,
I answer to no one, Especially not a woman,
I need a doctor,
-Is anyone a doctor? -Do you want to die?
I want to save a life!
Hands off!
Let me see her,
-What? -Amparo,
They want to see you, They won\'t hurt you,
No one will touch you,
They\'ll get a doctor to take you to the hospital,
Breathe,
Is there a doctor on the plane?
-Is there a doctor? -There is no doctor!
She needs a hospital, or the baby will die,
I can do it,
I can examine her,
Freeze,
Are you a doctor?
No, but I did four semesters of medicine in Córdoba,
-Okay, go ahead, Examine her, -All right,
No,
Excuse me,
Don\'t touch me,
No, honey, Look, I don\'t bite,
I\'m like a teddy bear, loving and tender,
I\'m a big teddy bear, okay?
Don\'t touch me,
No, Calm down, Look, I…
Hey…
She said not to touch her, so don\'t touch her,
-What? -Put her somewhere else,
No, She\'s not okay, Let me talk to her,
Amparo,
Let him examine you,
Please,
Oh brother, no,
She needs to go to a hospital right away, or the baby is going to be born here,
You can\'t let a baby die,
-Let her go to the hospital, Just her, -Please,
-Let her off, -Okay,
Sir…
-The baby could die, -Stop! Quiet! That\'s enough!
Top me up,
Pirateque, respond,
Aerobolívar base, copy,
Pirateque!
Who are we letting off the plane, Ulises?
This is Edilma Pérez, Pirateque,
Glad to hear your voice, How are you?
I\'m fine,
But there\'s a pregnant woman who needs to get to a hospital,
The baby could die,
I\'ll send an ambulance right away,
Who else is getting out?
No one is getting out until I say so,
What about the pregnant lady?
The pregnant lady makes the ransom go up to $400,000,
How can you do that to a woman?
How can you do that to a baby?
Amparo can\'t stay here, She can\'t!
Amparo can\'t stay on this goddamn plane!
Not another minute!
Pirateque, send help!
-Pirateque, -Calm down!
No! Pirateque!
Are you going to let a baby die, Pirateque?
Let that poor woman off, and I\'ll send you a plane
with 100,000 dollars,
If you keep provoking me, the dead baby will become
a nightmare, haunting those who take away our dreams,
You\'re very eloquent, Ulises,
A thinking man,
Have you ever thought about putting that mind to work instead of stealing?
Work,
Work like a slave who breaks his back to make his master richer,
while he doesn\'t have food to eat?
I\'m hungry, Pirateque, My partner is hungry too,
Latin America is hungry,
You\'re a slave, in case you didn\'t know,
I do know you\'re a crazy son of a bitch who needs a psychiatrist,
That\'s what I know,
You have three hours,
$400,000,
-Or the baby dies! -No one\'s going to pay that much--
Revolution or death!
The next time I have a bright idea, be a good friend and strangle me,
I really screwed up,
What am I doing?
I shouldn\'t be here,
You shouldn\'t be here,
I should be with my kids,
I\'m a mess, A mess,
You\'re not a mess,
Look at me,
No, I\'m not a mess,
I\'m the worst mother ever,
Pirateque,
-I brought a gift for your daughter, -Who let you in?
My inexhaustible optimism,
Sir, I have good news and bad news,
The good news is that we negotiated a reasonable ransom,
And the bad news?
There\'s a pregnant woman on board who is about to pop one out,
They said they\'ll let her go when we pay,
You just said you negotiated a reasonable ransom,
Yes, sir,
400,000 dollars,
Great job!
You started with 200 and settled on 400,
I still don\'t know if you\'re useless or just a total idiot,
Mr, Chavarriaga,
If you consider the fact that a woman is about to lose her baby,
$400,000 is more than a reasonable amount,
We can prevent the media from hearing about it and dubbing us
"Aerobolívar, the baby-killer airline,"
I understand your words individually,
but put together, I have no clue what you mean!
What I mean, sir,
is that I want to make peace with Mr, Alberto Chavarriaga,
Let\'s bury the hatchet, You have to pay,
Call the president and beg him to release the students,
Listen, Everything will fall into place,
Considering your size, it\'ll make a lot of noise when you take a fall,
I can\'t believe that your hate for me matters more to you than a baby\'s life,
I didn\'t hijack a plane,
and I didn\'t betray anyone by negotiating with guerrillas,
And I don\'t hate you,
I pity you,
Okay, if you don\'t care about people, at least think about your company,
When the media finds out, they will bash your airline,
Media? Aruba is a shithole,
They probably don\'t even have butter,
No butter
or TVs or anything,
Thank you, sir, for that pearl of wisdom,
Thank you, Aristides,
Don\'t fix yourself a drink, You weren\'t even invited! Get out!
Hello?
Mr, Marulanda, sir,
Yes, sir,
I just called you "sir," Didn\'t you hear me?
Pirateque, my boy, stop asking me,
I\'m not going to take you to the pageant again,
No, sir,
No pageants this time,
So, what do you want?
To give you an exclusive,
I\'m all ears,
I can\'t stand the smell of these lowlifes,
Excuse me,
Cold milk,
No, milk gives me heartburn, Thanks,
It\'s to cool you down, We\'re out of cold water,
Okay,
How\'s your daughter?
She\'s falling asleep,
There\'s no water, but this milk is cold,
Miss,
Miss, please help me,
The tamale we ate was spoiled,
I can\'t hold it in,
Come with me,
Man, I need to go to the bathroom, Please,
Help me out,
I told you, these bathrooms are for first class,
Ma\'am, please, let me go, It\'s an emergency,
Ma\'am, please, let us through,
Over my dead body,
Stay out of it,
Let them get crazy,
Do you want me to shit my pants right here?
-Ma\'am, sit down, please, -Make me,
Get your hands off me, you filthy darkie,
What are you going to do about it?
Do you want to smell the shit of the poor? Is that it?
Poor and an exhibitionist, What\'s wrong with you?
Okay! That\'s it!
-Bárbara! -Hey! Let her go!
Partner!
-Stop! -You know what?
I\'m pressing charges, you bitch,
-Shut up, -Against you too, you fucking guerrilla!
That\'s what you get!
Get up!
Get up, I said!
Get up,
Gross!
-Get to the bathroom, Now! -Man…
There you go,
Back to your seats, Now!
You can\'t treat a passenger that way, no matter what,
They can treat me however they want,
You\'re a flight attendant, You have to smile, whatever happens,
I don\'t want to smile, Edie,
I\'m exhausted,
I\'m tired of having to smile at everyone even when I don\'t want to,
So go and find another job, There\'s a lot you can do without smiling,
Where I\'m from, it\'s not that easy,
If you want to get by, you only have two options,
You either work as a maid or as a prostitute, That\'s it,
Not in your case,
You were crowned Queen of Transportation, Look how far you got by smiling,
You have no idea what I had to do to earn this uniform,
I had to do a lot more than smile, Edie,
Why didn\'t you tell me before?
There\'s a lot about me that you don\'t know,
My name isn\'t even Bárbara,
What\'s your name?
María Eugenia,
Why did you choose "Bárbara"?
I don\'t know,
For the same reason I wear fake eyelashes,
put chemicals in my hair,
and wear this uniform every day,
To see if, one day, I can smile because I want to,
Not just to survive,
Hey! Someone is coming,
We doing this or what?
-Recording, -Let\'s roll,
Good evening, Tokyo, Good morning, Bogotá,
This is Francisco "Flaco" Marulanda with an exclusive,
Today under the sky of Aruba, the Netherlands Antilles,
once a haunt of buccaneers, smugglers, and privateers,
history repeats itself,
We have news of violence and piracy, This time, in the air,
Because in that plane, just a few meters from me,
the lives of 51 passengers are in the hands of the PRF,
Even though the authorities and airline have remained as silent as the grave
when it comes to this hijacking,
My disciples, fear not,
Because if the story is true, El Flaco\'s got the scoop for you,
Hey!
Attention, Canberra and Buga, There\'s movement inside the plane,
We\'re going to try to get closer,
Cut, Hugo,
Hugo!
We\'re from the press!
Hugo, you idiot!
We\'re from the press, Easy, We\'re not armed,
Keep rolling,
Easy,
This is Flaco Marulanda, Why did you hijack this plane?
What are your demands?
Isn\'t violence the terminus for any ideology?
If you want to know, get in,
Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers…
We are live, broadcasting all over the world,
In an unprecedented act of courage, Flaco Marulanda has boarded…
When Bolívar fell, did Mancholita fall too?
Where did you get that from?
…for no one else, all the information on what happens inside this plane,
Even if it costs me my life,
-My wife can\'t see me with you, -What?
-You know… -…Aerobolívar flight 601,
We\'re entering the main cabin, going into the unknown,
The smell is unbearable,
It\'s the wary smell of fear,
The quintessential smell of agony,
The bucolic smell of death,
-Their faces say it all, -Please, we need help,
Every face, a tragedy, Every tragedy, a story,
Every story, a tale, And as tales go…
There it is,
The true face of revolution,
Get a little closer, you idiot, A little closer,
Hey!
This curtain is a symbol of the oppression and segregation
that the few exert over the many,
On this flight, there are passengers who eat and shit better than others,
Just like in our beloved country, ladies and gentlemen,
That is why we have decided to take up arms,
and, by way of revolution, satiate our hunger,
Our requests are simple,
Free the prisoners in El Socorro and $400,000 to finance the revolution,
Any message for the government or the airline?
They haven\'t made a statement yet,
We\'re willing to do anything, kill or be killed,
to remove curtains like this one in Colombia,
Revolution or death!
-Revolution or death! -"Revolution or death," No more curtains,
You heard the hijackers,
We\'re going to try to talk to some passengers,
A common man, Sir, any words?
I just want to say that, a hostage situation like this one,
with this putrid smell and this sweltering heat,
I wouldn\'t wish it upon my worst enemy,
-Thank you, It\'s an honor to meet you, -Don\'t worry, My pleasure,
This won\'t work, They\'re going to kill us,
-You have to do as I say, -I can\'t,
-What are you doing? -It\'s a contraction,
-No, please, -That\'s what a pregnant woman says,
Imagine you\'re in a lot of pain, Like you\'re pooping out a brick,
-It\'s like… -I can\'t,
There is no modesty or dignity here anymore,
All that remains is uneasiness,
Sir, are you flying alone?
No, we\'re a family,
Our daughter hasn\'t eaten anything,
If you can let my mom in Cali know…
-Her phone number is 61 21-- -Over here!
A woman is in labor in the bathroom,
Attention, Paris, Attention, Medellín,
It seems there is a woman in labor on the plane,
Get out of here,
How are you doing?
I can\'t breathe,
I can\'t be here any longer, please,
Someone get us out of here,
This woman needs to be released,
The hijackers refuse to let a woman in labor, about to give birth, free
until the negotiations with the government get started,
So, Flaco Marulanda asks himself, humbly,
"What are the government and the airline waiting for
to save the life of a newborn?"
"What are they waiting for?"
-"For a more serious tragedy?" -Turn that off,
Pirateque!
Pirateque, answer,
Pirateque! You have 18 minutes to bring me the $400,000,
or I will kill a passenger and let that baby die!
Do you know the story of the old lady who swallowed a fly?
Do you still think this is a joke?
Turns out that the old lady swallowed a spider,
So it could eat the fly she ate,
And it didn\'t work,
-So… -Eighteen minutes, Pirateque!
Eighteen minutes!
So,
she decided to eat a dog,
A dog!
So it could eat the spider she ate,
-And it didn\'t work, -Do you think this is a joke?
Just wait, The joke is coming,
So, she found a wolf,
A wolf,
So it could eat the dog she ate,
And, guess what, Ulises,
The wolf ate her,
I don\'t want the wolf to eat you,
Seventeen minutes, Pirateque!
Let the pregnant woman, children, and women go, live on air,
On Flaco\'s broadcast,
And I will get on a charter plane to take $200,000 to you,
It\'s authorized by the airline\'s board and owner,
We\'ll pay,
You were right,
This isn\'t a goddamn Hollywood movie with a happy ending,
In 17 minutes, we\'ll start killing people if you don\'t comply,
Live?
So all of Colombia can hear that your cause is blood and not hunger?
Because then…
the wolf will hunt you down, Ulises, and it will eat you,
Do you want to die as a stubborn guerrilla who swallowed a fly?
Or flee with $200,000
like a revolutionary who screwed over the government?
Say whatever you want,
I won\'t believe you until I have the dollars in my hand,
I\'m going to give a press conference now,
So I can let the entire country know that we\'re going to pay,
That\'s worth more than my word, right?
Announce right away that you\'re sending $200,000
and a plane with a full tank and five parachutes,
Then we\'ll have a deal,
Planes, parachutes, and motors are already at the airport,
But I\'ll need at least three hours to get the money to you,
Do we have a deal, Ulises?
Deal,
But if in three hours,
we let these people go and the money isn\'t here,
we\'ll start throwing bodies onto the runway,
About the dead bodies…
Do you mean it?
I\'m ready to kill today,
Revolution or death,
Revolution or death, brother,
Bolívar said, "Our disagreements originate
in two of the most copious sources of public calamity,
ignorance and weakness,"
Aerobolívar is the airline Bolívar dreamed of,
The airline of the people,
That\'s why we have decided to put people above our personal disagreements,
The Aerobolívar board of directors,
led by Mr, Chavarriaga,
has voted unanimously to give $200,000 to the militants,
so our people can come back home,
And we hope the government does its part
to honor the legacy of the Bolívar, and…
Let\'s release women and children!
No one else! Women and children!
Quiet down!
Everyone!
As you can see, he who can, can,
He who can\'t should applaud,
The first to be released,
Hallelujah, Lord, have mercy upon us, Grant us peace,
I know, Norita, Elvira…
Stay calm, okay?
It\'ll be over soon,
And then we\'ll be together,
I\'m not getting out,
I\'m not leaving you for anything in the world,
Take the bag,
Okay, honey, It\'s time, You have to go,
Inside the plane, there\'s a sense of joy but also grief, and… how can we deny it?
Hate, anger, envy, resentment,
-You\'re the first one, -Yeah?
Yeah, come on,
We have a very important race,
It\'s the most important race of our lives,
We\'ve been preparing for the race our entire lives,
Our entire lives,
I\'m sorry,
I have 426 chicks in the hold, and they can\'t die,
They need to be released and so do I,
Miss…
You can get out now,
Cali smells like shit, huh?
-Okay, -Go,
Come on! Let\'s go!
If it\'s a girl, I\'m naming her Edilma,
Don\'t make that mistake,
You\'re so brave, Edie, Come with me,
-We\'re so close to being released, -You did what you could already,
I can\'t leave my colleague or the passengers,
Think about yourself, Edie,
Your boys need you,
Get in,
The president is going to speak! Chaparro, turn that shit on,
We\'re all famous!
He\'s going to speak,
Colombians, this morning, Aerobolívar flight 601 was hijacked
with 51 of our countrymen on it,
Our message to the hijackers is unequivocal,
Colombia does not bow down to violence or terror,
We won\'t negotiate with those who insist on breaking the law,
Therefore, anyone who negotiates with these criminals
will be considered an accomplice,
I\'ve already asked the Dutch government
to carry out a military intervention on Flight 601,
in case the criminals refuse to surrender
and it is necessary to use force,
Do you have a pen, please? Thanks,
Ask for Manchola,
Tell her my kids are home alone,
Thank you,
I mean it,
No!
And here she is, just arriving,
the woman of the hour, the hero of the night, Edilma Pérez,
Just a few steps away from freedom, how can you choose to go back to hell?
Isn\'t anyone waiting for you at home?

and they are waiting to hear your answer,
My duty is to ensure the well-being of my passengers
and my crew until their final destination,
