As he serves his time and tries to find a place in the Latino power group in prison-La Onda-his hotheaded cousin Paco turns to a career in law enforcement, while Cruz makes his way as a successful artist. Desperate to belong to what he feels is his true family, he'll do anything to be a part of his cousins' gang-his "family." But a retaliatory attack on a rival gang sends Miklo, out on probation, back to prison, and he finds himself in San Quentin.
