After he finishes the job he is visited by Inspector Mendoza (Paul Muller), who tells him that Tefeiro has been murdered and that the detective is not the prime suspect. When he leads police to Cynthia Ramoz to get her to support his story, he is surprised to find out she's not the woman who hired him…Also stars Martine Stedil, Eric Falk, Monica Swinn & Roman Huber.
