Part 3/8:
Desperate for money, Machete unwittingly becomes embroiled in a corrupt political scheme when Senator Michael Booth approaches him with a nefarious proposition: assassinate rival Senator John McLaughlin to protect the interests of immigrant labor. The stakes are high—Booth fears that McLaughlin's election would close the borders, jeopardizing the economy that relies on undocumented workers. Machete, unaware of the plot's true nature, accepts the offer and prepares for what he believes is a noble cause.
