And despite the manhunt for Pablo going on around them, this year was no different. Call it faith, optimism, or stubbornness, the people of Medellín thought they'd seen it all, but they hadn't. In fact, they hadn't seen anything yet.

- César Gaviria: He thinks I should publicly condemn Los Pepes.
- Arthur Crosby: They're criminals. Their activities cannot be condoned. Even if one does approve of the results. Mr. President, I'm no one to bullshit. Maybe that's hurt me in my career. Yes, Los Pepes are an ugly business. They're getting to Escobar. That's all that matters at the present.

- Arthur Crosby: With politics and war, the trick is in the timing. Watch how they evolve, how their actions are received.
- César Gaviria: And, uh, up till then, pretend they don't exist.
- Arthur Crosby: Well, we can if you can.
- Pablo Escobar: [to Tata about the attack on their residence] Whoever did this will never get near us ever again. I promise you
- Young Daughter: Papa, how will Santa know how to find us?
- Pablo Escobar: Santa... Santa will always find your good and kind heart - Wherever you are in this world.
