Maria, Blanca, and Lucy make it to New York safely (one other girl got arrested, Maria almost got arrested, but due to her pregnancy, they could not x-ray her). The 3 girls are picked up by two drug dealer guys and taken to a hotel to poop out the drug pellets. Lucy gets sick (the drugs bursted inside her stomach) and dies. The 2 guys open her up to remove the other drug pellets. In a panic, Maria and Blanca run away, taking the pellets with them. They end up staying with Lucy’s sister, Carla (Patricia Rae), lying about why they are in New York (Maria’s family think she’s still in Columbia working as a secretary). Maria goes to a doctor to find out if her baby is alright. Sonograms show her baby’s doing fine. When Lucy’s body is found, Carla finds out the truth about their drug activities and kicks them out. Maria and Blanca call up the 2 drug dealer guys to give them the drug pellets and get their money, which they do get only after demanding it. Maria also demands Lucy’s share of the money to give to Carla, but the guys refuse. She ends up using part of her own money to give to Carla so Lucy’s body can be sent back to Columbia. Blanca and Maria goes to the airport to head back home. On the way there, Maria looks at the sonogram picture of her baby. At the gate, Maria decides not to go. She and Blanca look at each other for a moment. Blanca heads toward the plane while Maria walks back to New York City.
