MUSIC 2A: TO THE DISPATCH!
(CAMILA is going through bills.)
[KEVIN]
(Into the radio.)
Ciento noventa y dos, en la esquina al frente del McDonald's.
(Beat.)
Attención, I know it's hot but I don't want to see any drivers without a tie, this is Rosario's.
(Cozies up to CAMILA)
How can you be stressed when our muñeca's home?
[CAMILA]
The mechanic called, he won't touch another engine till we pay for last month.
[KEVIN]
Then I'll get a little engine grease on my hands
[CAMILA]
Why, so you can hurt your back again?
[CAMILA]
You used to think I was sexy when I fixed cars.
[KEVIN]
Before all that mileage...
(Looking at a letter.)
Mira, Uptown Investment Group...
[CAMILA]
Regency Bank.
(Opens a letter.)
We're behind on all these payments. We need an emergency loan.
[KEVIN]
We'll go see the bank manager Monday.
[CAMILA]
This can't wait, papi.
[KEVIN]
The dispatcher called out.
[BENNY]
Hey, boss, I'll cover the radio.
[KEVIN]
You don't speak Spanish.
[BENNY]
Five years with these drivers?
[KEVIN]
You're not Latino.
[CAMILA]
How much English did you speak when you started here? Benny is honorary Latino.
(KEVIN hands BENNY the radio)
[BENNY]
Ahem, there's a new voice riding the heat wave today--
[KEVIN]
Just get them from point A to point B
[BENNY]
I got your back.
(CAMILA and KEVIN exit.)
