History[]
Antonio was involved with rogue CIA agent John Fitzgerald to steal a perpetual energy battery called the Zephyr and buy Simon Feck, the battery's designer. He sends his men to ambush Roy Miller, Fitzgerald's former partner, and his new companion June Havens. However, Roy was able to save June and brought her on his personal island where they can't be tracked. Unfortunately, Antonio picks up June's cell phone signal when she answered a call from her sister and ambushed them again. Roy and June escaped on helicopter, however.
Later, Antonio sends a woman called Naomi to seduce Roy in Salzburg, Australia and get the Zephyr's location. However, Roy sees through the ruse and speaks to Antonio through Naomi's earpiece, threatening him. Fitzgerald and Isabel George, the CIA's Director of Counter-Espionage, later inform June about Antonio and suspect that Roy is actually working for him. This results in June alerting the CIA to Roy's whereabouts, and Roy falls into the river to his supposed death while escaping.
After her sister's wedding the following day, June calls Antonio and lies that she has the Zephyr. She meets with Antonio's henchmen and gives them a fake, only to be kidnapped and brought to Spain since Antonio recognized the battery as a fake. He injects June with the truth serum to question her, but June admits she doesn't know where the Zephyr is. While Antonio meets with Fitzgerald, Roy (who survived the fall) saves June and they escape on motorcycle. Antonio informs Fitzgerald about June and Roy's escape and chases after them with his men. He stops his car and tries to shoot at Roy and June, only to be crushed to death by bulls.
