King
Faraday and Gracie O'Rielly were in 1956 Cuba on a
mission - they were after a drug lord who was arming
Castro's rebels. Faraday got in deep with Manale so
he could get close to the drugs and take him down.
Manale believed "John King" was having an
affair with his wife. He took him out to kill him,
but his gun backfired. With Manale dead, King went
back to his house to clear out the safe. He found
Gracie inside with Lola (Manale's now-widow). They
had been having an affair and shot at King.
Slam called Selina,
but got her machine.
