Quotes 

• [customers enter a bar littered with corpses] 

  Bucho : [irritated, yelling at the tourists]  Can't you see that we are fucking closed?

• Bucho : [talking to his henchmen]  It's one thing if you can't find someone running around the city hiding any place he chooses. I can understand that. What I can't understand is how you let him get away when you knew where he was! Now you drive around town. You see someone you don't know, you shoot them. How hard is that, huh?

  [takes gun from Right Arm] 

  Bucho : Look over there.

  [the henchmen look in different directions, unsure of where "over there" is] 

  Bucho : I don't know him. Never seen him before.

  [the henchmen part, revealing Shrug] 

  Bucho : Look, he has a gun!

  Shrug : [looks down at the gun tucked into his belt in dismay] 

  Bucho : Must be him!

  Shrug : Hey...

  Bucho : [shoots Shrug, then returns the gun to Right Arm]  Now, how hard is that? It's that easy.

• Bucho : [to El Mariachi, as they stare each other down]  You come to kill me? Let me tell you something. You have already killed me!

• Bucho : Where's Tavo?

  Shrug : Tavo's outside, boss.

  Bucho : Where?

  Shrug : Two blocks up.

  Bucho : Well, tell him to get his ass over here! I want to know what happened!

  Shrug : He's dead, boss.

• Right Hand : There's someone else out there. I know there is! And I want to find him now.

  Bucho : Who else is there? The guitar player? The guy is a myth, man. A myth.

• Bucho : You are a guitar player. What the fuck is a guitar player doing killing my men, ruining my business?

• Bucho : It's a bookstore. Burn it down.

• Bucho : Do you think you can you handle that? Or I got to do everything myself?

  Right Hand : I'll handle it.

  Bucho : You bet your ass you'll handle it!

• Bucho : Papa wouldn't be so proud of you anymore. You were his little guitarrista. His little mariachi. And now, just a piece of shit like me!

• Bucho : What's done is done.
