Stash:
There's a big shipment coming in today - supplies and stuff for the new church - coming through El Madero Pass. We can grab it and sell it.
Nick Kovacs: We grab it... and burn it!
Stash: And sell the ashes?
Nick Kovacs: Where can we sell anything? We grab it and burn it! If shipment don't get to where she go, then they don't pay for it. And then ten thousand dollars is still ten thousand dollars waiting for us in one big bunch.
