Gustavo De Grieff was very interested in arranging Escobar's surrender but the noose was tightening. He told Juan Pablo, Escobar's son, that if his father didn't surrender by November 26, then the protection on his family would be withdrawn and they would be treated like regular citizens. Juan Pablo was 17 at the time and not 10 as portrayed on the series. He was very much involved in the day-to-day decisions that went on with his family as he became the man of the house in a sense with his father in hiding. His father however wanted too many things before surrendering including getting his family out of the country, but to also allow 21 family visits a year. No way he was getting that.

It was a November night in 1993 when Maria Victoria Henao Escobar and her children, Juan Pablo and Manuela, tried to flee to Frankfurt, Germany and were denied entry at Customs. Gaviria sent the Colombian police colonel and special DEA agent, Kenny Magee, aboard the flight with them so they could be intercepted upon arrival. In this episode, Murphy embodies those agents, although it wasn't Steve Murphy specifically who flew to Deutschland. They were detained overnight and then denied entry. Upon their search, DEA agents found a note that said, "Tell our friend in Frankfurt to call Gustavo De Grieff." This proved to everyone that the Attorney General's office was provided aid for Escobar's family. Gaviria intervened and asked De Grieff to drop the protection so the family could be in government custody. They were then flown back to Colombia and escorted to the Tequendama Luxury Hotel in Bogota. Pretty much everyone who was staying there fled soon after.

Spoiler Alert: Gustavo De Grieff doesn't die. In fact, he's still alive today at 87 years old. The former Attorney General of Colombia was one of the most polarizing figures in the Escobar saga. He somehow was passionate about prosecuting criminals, but was also criticized for helping them. When he came into office, well, he didn't even have an office. He operated out of a hotel in Bogotá. Escobar had just escaped and he was tasked with prosecuting him. President Gaviria, on the other hand, didn't care much for prosecution as much as execution. De Grieff felt the Office of the Attorney General was completely autonomous from the rest of government and he operated with his gut, which proved to be one of Gaviria's biggest headaches.

Colombia's Attorney General who was at odds with President Cesar Gaviria about the approach in taking Escobar down. He proved to be a thorn in his side undermining him at every intersection.
