Tequila Express
Student Alice Jeffries (Anne Jensen) is on vacation in Mexico with her friend Carmen. When the two girls are arrested by the local police for drug possession, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) gets involved and quickly discovers that the Mexican authorities are unusually uncooperative. It's suspected that Alice was not arrested by chance, because after all she is the daughter of the Californian governor. The governor now pulls all the strings to free his little daughter and does not hesitate to send US agents to Mexico.
