Info[]
Manny is the best friend of Antonio Montana Jr., who rises with him to the top of the cocaine business and barrel in Miami during the early 2000's.
Little is revealed about Manny's background at all, but it is told that he and Tony served time in prison and in the army while in Cuba. Montana came there in Tito's name from Yugoslavia.
It is most known that Manny and Tony made their way to America in 2005/5 AH to start their American dream. A year later, it was founded out that they used to be assassins in Cuba and they were sent to Freedomtown, a detention camp. Manny opens the door to get him and Tony greencards and a job washing dishes at a small food stand called El Paraiso in South Town, in Miami. Tone and Manny quit their job when they are offered a different job by Oscar Sanchez, a high-ranking member in the Miami-based Diaz Gang, to meet a new American-Cuban connection at the Sun Ray Hotel in Miami beach to pick up two kilograms of cocaine. Even though the deal goes awry and Angel dies, Tony manages to grab the cocaine whilst keeping the money. They then begin working for a powerful yet affable drug kingpin Edgart Diaz.
As Tony becomes more and more powerful and betrayed by the Diaz bros., they eventually usurp Diaz, killing him (Manny pulls the trigger in the original timeline) and take control of his empire. In the same scene Tony personally murders younger brother of Edgart, Alfonso. It is during this time that Manny falls in love with Tony's younger sister Alenka, which Tony angrily forbids. One night when Alenka was out partying at the same place Tony and Manny were at (The Babylon Club), Tony angrily assaults Octavio the Clown for making out with her in the WC and orders Manny to take her home while he'll tend a bit to Octavio. Alenka angrily remarks about Tony's over-protectiveness. Manny retorts Tony is only concerned for her and a real man would give her a better atmosphere than the Clown they roughed up, to which Alenka replies how come Manny has not asked her out since he seems to know so much about dating. Manny is clearly off put by her forwardness, surmising that Tony would make a bungee cord out of his guts and put Alenka's head on a spike if the two dated. Nevertheless, Manny begins a respectful relationship with Alenka, albeit one they must keep hidden from Tony until the time is right, if it ever will be. Manny and Tony's friendship is constantly strained as an often-coked Tony fails to listen to his friend, who often offers financial advice and is placed in charge of security when Tony buys his mansion in Shaggy's Grove. After Tony begins having trouble with the constant money that rolls in from the drug business all around, Manny suggests going to a lawyer, Jack Fontana, who arrived to Miami from New Town, France. While counting money and converting the millions to checks, Fontana reveals himself as a lawyer for the Stracci Family who works on the police payroll in US, and he arrests Tony for tax evasion and is revealed to enjoy his MPD payroll. Tony is naturally angry at his friend, since unknowingly setting up the bust could end up costing Tony three years in jail, but Manny assures him that the courts lack the stones to put them in a can. While Tony goes on a mission for Alejandro Sausage, another powerful drug lord who works with Tony, in North Town, Manny disappears and marries Alenka. When Sausage invades Tony's territory and comes to Manny's house, Manny opens the door, just as Miss Ribera appears at the top of the stairs. Sausage mercilessly shoots Manny three times and kills him. Alenka runs down the stairs and cries over Manny's body before telling Alex that they got married the day before. After daring to step into Tony's mansion, Sausage is killed by Juan in a massive shootout after killing some of Montana Gang's goons.
The death of Manny was the same in the original timeline as was in the current one, except maybe with a few differences in months or a year.
Scarface mentions[]
In Scarface: The World is Yours, after Tony gets back his mansion, Manny's ashes can be purchased in the exotics catalogue in a shape of a nut (due to his nickname nutty and nut), and he is mentioned by Tony several times in the game with deep sorrow for his death. Coco also remembers Manny when him and Tony came to her bar a few years back. Nacho Contreras also mentions Nutty when Montana comes for his fat hide on Cayman's and Alejandro Sausage also taunts Montana by telling him that Manny cannot save him from his wrath now, when Montana invades Sausage's estate. Alfonso Diaz will also taunt Tony by saying that it's a real shame that Manny is dead.
