Eight months ago Andres' farm is raided.
八個月前，安德烈斯的農場遭到突然搜查。
Andres Varela: They caught us at about four in the morning, they surrounded the house and laboratory. They burnt the whole plantation, all the fruits of my labor. They were going to take me to prison, but they said they wouldn't take me if I handed over everything. I even had to give them money so that they'd let me go
安德烈斯·瓦雷拉：他們在早上四點左右抓住我們，他們包圍了房子和實驗室。他們燒毀了整個種植園，都是我的勞動果實。他們要帶我去監獄，但他們表示，如果我轉交了一切，他們就不會帶走我。我不得不給他們錢，他們才放我走
Narrator: To feed his family of five, Andres's only option is to replant his coca fields.

Here he turns his coca crop into cocaine paste, the base material from which the drug cocaine is refined.
在這里，他將他的古柯作物轉變成可卡因膏，也就是提煉可卡因毒品的基料。
Only one half of one percent of each coca leaf is cocaine. So Andres first chops the leaves into smaller pieces.
每片古柯葉子只含0.5%的可卡因。所以安德烈斯首先將葉子弄成小片。
This makes extracting the cocaine from the rest of the leaf easier.

Andres Varela: This is the gasoline that we add here, we'll leave for a few minutes, it will bring out the merchandise (cocaine)
安德烈斯·瓦雷拉：這就是我們這加的汽油，我們會等幾分鐘，它就會生成商品（可卡因）
