But Perro is a bad seed and could never change. In prison, a humble religious man known as Father Maromas takes legal custody of Perro and even takes him to a poor children shelter he build. But Perro can't stop his criminal behavior and even steals from Father Maromas (even knowing that the money was for re-storing their home). But he couldn't deal with his conscience and stole once again to give Maromas his money back. Perro, along with his loyal sidekicks Flautas and Andr�s, stole with violence from a local loaner. But Perro couldn't get away with his crime because Andr�s not only stole money, but a Rolex. He later sold it to Elizondo's character (a pimp cop); friend with Tamarindo (a bad-ass judicial) who captured him and Perro.
Perro's destiny was jail and that's where he ended up. (less)
