When Dominique DiPierro (Dom for short) would have leads on the Dark Army, Santiago would often become more stressed as it interferes with his role in protecting and providing information.

In "Shutdown -r", Santiago was shown to violent when he was caught by Dom as he sucker punched her and kidnapped her alongside Darlene. He also explained to her that the reason he has to work for the Dark Army was because he had no choice or else his family would be killed. Before his death, Santiago pleaded with Irving to spare Dominique since he did not want to see her get killed by him and even acknowledge how she was a capable agent in the FBI.
