He quickly climbs the ladder from a small-time jobs to a major deal for Omar Suarez, that goes terribly wrong. But Tony manages to get the goods and keep the money as well. He meets drug kingpin Frank Lopez, and takes interest in his girl, Elvira. He slowly builds his enterprise and soon he gets on the top, dealing with his ex-employers in a very ruthless way. But the more power he achieves, more he is frightened of his enemies to take over drug empire he made. His paranoia takes over him and coke abuse only adds to it. But no one can f*ck with Tony and he keeps his ego to the very end, showing that he is one tough guy to kill.
