He let his head fall back and stared at the wall waiting for Ramon to come, enjoying the silence for a moment or too, his headache almost non-existent. He could feel the phone that was used to contact Amador bulge in his pocket, but he ignored it - he didn't want to think about that right now. What he wanted was something to numb the pain permanently until he was out of here, of he was going to have trouble making it out of Mexico.
His mind wandered back to Amador once more, despite his wished, and he thought about the best way to play this with him. He knew that ignoring the deadline and making Amador call him would be the easiest way to get control over the situation, but most importantly he had to make sure he would get possession of the virus. Maybe he could persuade the man that the Salazers were untrustworthy, so that he would only deal with himself, not the brothers. That would work, he thought. He could et the virus in the end and would have control over the Salazars too - he would just have to be careful to make sure the Salazars didn't realise he was in control, or he would be in trouble.
His thoughts were interrupted by the familiar sound of another vehicle pulling up, which he assumed was giving Ramon a ride. He sat upright just before the large man clambered through the door and plonked himself down next to Jack as he handed him a thick folder full of paper. Jack made a mental note to lock the bolt over the door in the future.
"Heres the stuff on Amador." He explained, as though Jack couldn't make the connection himself.
"Thanks." Jack said quietly as he leafed through it, clearly not interested in the information. That had been a delaying tactic and he hadn't expected Ramon to gather even a third of the information in the time as he had.
"So what's the plan, Jack?"
"We wait until Amador calls. We get as much information about the product as possible - where its from, who else knows about it, price, testers, history - everything. I'll make sure we get everything we need to do this and come out on top too." He said patting him on the back, he could tell Ramon was still nervous.
"Good." Ramon said standing up and looking around. "Is there anything else you need?"
"No I think I got it covered here, I'll let you know of all of my dealings with Amador of course."
"Me and Hector are going out to celebrate tonight, but I don't expect you will be attending?" He asked raising his eyebrows, he certainly wouldn't mind if Jack did come along, but given his condition it may not be in his best interests to do so.
"No, I think I better take a rain check, thanks." Jack said, slightly sad that he couldn't go out with the men, it was always a good night when he did.
"Okay, I'll have Gregory come by later to check on you. Oh and here.." He broke off to toss Jack a small silver flip phone from his pocket. "Your new phone. I had one of the men chip it for you, so it is completely untraceable, it can't be bugged either - hell, even the phone company would have trouble finding out who you called last never mind listening in to a conversation!" He laughed at his own poor joke and smiled widely at Jack, making sure he knew it was a good phone.
Jack smiled at Ramon, truly grateful for the mans stupidity.
"That's brilliant Ramon, absolutely brilliant."
