Ted: The Night Gloria's Burned Down

Three years I'm here, working for Senora Gloria. Seen some fucked up shit. Like the pony getting loose and stomping Lili's snake. Or when Doc shut us down 'cuz Sophe got a dose and the townies dragged him up here by his pecker to open us up again. But man, last night. This gringo shows up the parlor, poof. Didn't go past me, or Paco in back. Was just there, esse. Gloria tell him go way or pay up. He say, "Where's Esteban?" "He dead," I say. "Then all hope is lost," he say and disappear. Then the fire started.
