This movie said that during that time period they try to get a beer together anytime they are in the same city, they were always really close friends.

He then says "you made some mistakes," which she translates as "y seguí cometiendo errores" - which means "and I continued making mistakes." Bilingual Bonus: Beatriz doesn't entirely translate Sam's big speech to the Espada Ardiente correctly.Big Damn Kiss: Lampshaded, the characters even imply they are doing it out of tradition rather than having genuinely fallen for each other.Big Damn Gunship: Things are looking grim for Sam near the end of the final battle until Colombian police helicopters finally show up.Because Sam's name and face was in a lot of them he used that as leverage to both get the charges dropped and full retirement benefits, as if the whole story is uncovered it would look good for Sam and bad for the military.

That's understandable for the civilians (and he protests once or twice), but not at all for his tribunal.
