It's believed the majority of the money is still underground; Doug Laux and Ben Smith two former CIA operatives embark on a mission to find it.

Upon arriving in Colombia, Doug connects with a source, Juan Esteban, who shows them one of Escobar's safehouses. Ben's research provides proof of the caletas existence, and he and his tech team arrive at Pablo's barrio to begin the search for millions.

After discovering a motorcycle likely buried with one of Pablo's sicarios, Doug and Ben decide to infiltrate Pablo's inner circle. Ben focuses on Pablo's family; the tech team scours property, while Doug gets in touch with Pablo's hitman, Popeye.
