"Are you done, surfista?" asked Hernandez. "Because I have business to attend to and you've already interrupted me enough."
The Silver Surfer turns away from Hernandez and gets back on his board. He then flies out of the building.
As the Silver Surfer streaks high above Tropico, he takes one final look at the tiny nation and shakes his head. He was sure that one day, its regime would fall. But how many lives would be lost before then? He could not say. And with that, the Surfer flies off.
Raul once again took a look at his many security cameras set up around the island. So far it was business as usual - people engaged in trade, rebels being struck down... Wait. That last one is proving to be very interesting indeed, if the audio from Camera #9 is to be believed...
"Madre de dio! L'arlequína!"
Raul smiled. Whenever L'arlequína was out and about, and when she found rioters, he was guaranteed a show. And so, when the red-haired woman in form-fitting black leather skipped after the fleeing rioters, he couldn't help but struggle. They ought to know better than to flee... or at least, they did as they rapidly decreased in size until they were all less than an inch tall. L'arlequína extended a hand and the now diminutive rioters were teleported into it. She then lifted her hand to her mouth and slid the rioters in, swallowing them whole and alive.
Certainly not the most dignified of ends, but among the most disturbing, and Raul knew that fear and respect was what kept him in power.

"Urgh... Engineer...." Ghost is waking up, "Whe-- Where the hell are we? I can't see in this stupid bag over my head."
Several customs officials inspect the boat, finding Ghost and Engineer.
"Bueno! Más burros para el paquete!" exclaimed one.
Other officials hoist Ghost and Engineer to their feet, then whip them.
"Mover, burros!" shouted the whipping officials.

"OW!!! Goddamn Engineer, did you do this!?!!"
"Mwwaaaaahhhhaaaaaahhhaaaaaaaahh...." The Engineer sobbed while walking with Ghost.

The Tropico officials lead Ghost and Engineer south, in the slummier side of Tropico, to a small mine in the island where "highly paid workers" dig for raw materials. They lift the bags off of Ghost and Engineer's heads and loosen the chains only enough to allow a little bit of freedom of arm movement. They then smack Engineer and Ghost with shovels, handing the shovels to them and pointing to nearby rock piles.
"Excavar!" demanded the officials.
"Excavar!" demanded the officials.
"WHAT IN THE SAM HELL ARE WE?! DID YOU TERRORISTS KIDNAP US WHILE WE WERE DOING A SHOW?!!" Ghost raged and screamed.
One of the guards slams Ghost with the butt of his rifle.
"Burros estúpidos! Dije cavar!" shouted the guard.
"Burros estúpidos! Dije cavar!" shouted the guard.
"Shove por el culo! No estoy cavando en busca de cualquier cosa hasta que nos digas por qué nos tomaría aquí?!" Ghost replied in Spanish.
"Las naciones del Unitas han cansado de sus emisiones de odio y de inmundicia!" explained the guard, slamming Ghost's head with the rifle butt again. "Estuvieron de acuerdo en enviar aquí a trabajar, donde nunca se puede molestar a nadie otra vez!"
"No me digas que algún admirador de reptil me informó de algo como esto! Quiero decir, soy un capitalista, y merezco el respeto según ese título, estúpido lamedores lechosas miserables malditos!"
The guard shoots Ghost twice in the head.
"Eso es lo que hacemos para desobedientes burros," said the guard to Engineer. "Ahora cavar!"
