Biography[]
Scarface[]
Tony pays Lopez back the money and cocaine from a botched drug deal with Hector the Toad. Tony is also introduced to Elvira Hancock, Lopez's mistress who will become the source of tension between them. Tensions rise when Montana makes a deal with Bolivian drug lord Alejandro Sosa without Frank's consent and Suarez is killed by Sosa's men. Lopez is angered, and accuses Montana of stealing the deal.
Montana goes as far as to propose to Elvira. Combined with that, Lopez and Montana have a heated confrontation at the Babylon Club, resulting in two Colombian gunmen being sent in to assassinate Montana. Montana escapes, and confronts him and his corrupt cop henchman Mel Bernstein along with Manny and Chi-Chi.
Once disarmed, the aging drug lord begins pleading for his life and Tony agrees that he won't kill Lopez. He then gives Manny the gun, and Manny kills Lopez with a shot to the chest while Montana finishes off Mel.
