They call each other every other day, but a few days ago Jimmy went to Juarez and cut off the calls. When he returned to Albuquerque, he called again. Since he initially said he'd be back in these days, they didn't say much over the phone.
Nia: "Nothing much, everything is good. How about you? Was Juarez fun?"
Jimmy wasn't hurt at all, and Nia certainly knew he hadn't encountered any serious problems, so she was just asking if it was fun. However, Jimmy didn't expect her to ask that and thought for a moment and said: "It's not very safe over there, and I wasn't there for fun, so I don't know if it's fun. But the people there are very polite, cars stop well before intersections, and there's never any congestion.
Do you know why? Because murders of drivers and passengers at intersections happen frequently, and they do it this way to easily escape quickly in case a gunfight happens."
Nia asked in astonishment: "That dangerous? And you guys?"
