* ThirdOptionAdaptation: In the song, we know that a) somebody shot somebody during the confrontation between Rico and Tony, and b) decades later, Tony's gone. This could mean that Rico shot Tony, but it could also mean that ''Tony'' shot ''Rico'' and then was executed or died in prison. In the movie, [[spoiler:it's Tony who gets shot... and it's Lola who does it]].
