The lights go out on the Bridge of the Americas, plunging the US-Mexican border into darkness. When power is restored, Judge Lorraine Gates's body is found directly on the border line. Both El Paso Detective Sonya Cross (Diane Kruger) and Chihuahua Detective Marco Ruiz (Demián Bichir) arrive on the scene. Ruiz allows an ambulance with Charlotte Millright (Annabeth Gish) and her husband (Robert R. Shafer), who is having a heart attack, to cross back into the States. When Gates's body is moved, it comes apart at the waist. The coroner (Mary Pat Gleason) informs Cross and supervisor Lt. Hank Wade (Ted Levine) that the top part of the body is Gates's, but the bottom part is a young Hispanic female's, later identified as Cristina Fuentes. Ruiz matches Fuentes with a previous case where 25 dismembered bodies were found in a "death house," one of many body drop sites. The judge's car and her lower half are found, but her ID card is missing. Ruiz considers it the killer's trophy. Meanwhile, the person (Thomas M. Wright) who dropped the body off at the bridge has abducted Eva Guerra (Sandra Echeverría), his next intended victim. The car the abductor had used is traced to reporter Daniel Frye (Matthew Lillard), but he becomes trapped inside by an apparent bomb with a timer. The timer elapses, leaving a message saying this crime wave is "only the beginning." Elsewhere, Charlotte's husband has died and she goes through his personal effects at their ranch. She finds a second cell phone, which is password protected, and is hung up on when she answers a call. She also finds a key in his wallet. She asks a ranch hand (Alejandro Patino) about both. He doesn't know about the phone, but takes her to a remote cabin on the ranch. In its cellar, she finds a padlocked door which the key unlocks.
