The final episode covers how presidents after Ike engaged with Guatemala. Superficially idealist, practically brutal and like so many other countries in Latin America, things get exponentially worse when Reagan shows up. The civil war escalates as right wing paramilitaries roam the countryside, murdering and kidnapping supposed insurgents with impunity. The military class amasses power and status superceding the government's functions, culminating in one of the many forgotten genocides of the 20th century.
