Throughout the Series[]
Season 1[]
At the beginning of the series we are introduced to Arman as he works for members of the Barsamian crime syndicate. While helping with the execution of a man who owed the syndicate a debt, Arman discovers the murder was witnessed by Thony De La Rosa, a cleaning lady who was hired to clean up after a party that same evening. Arman is ready to kill her too, until she reveals to him that she is just a cleaning lady and offers to clean the mess for him. He agrees to spare her if she will tell no one what she saw.
Throughout the season, Arman faces pressure from Hayak Barsamian to find and kill Thony, who he believes is learning too much about the real buisness he and Arman are involved in. Pleased with her work, however, Arman begins calling Thony in to clean up after the buisness of the cartel.
By the events of the episode "Kabayan", Arman and Thony have reached a comfortable level in their relationship. However, unknown to Arman (at least initially). Thony is being used by the FBI to spy on the crime syndicate and take them down from the inside out. Arman now knows the truth about Thony's son Luca and has offered to help her. The closer Arman and Thony get, however, the more an insecure Nadia begins to suspect an affair in spite of Arman's denials. Arman goes so far as to threaten a man into helping Thony and her son.
By "Mother's Mission", Arman has smuggled Thony and Luca into Mexico to receive an organ transplant at a medical mission run by a woman calling herself "Mother Donna". He is unfortunately called back to Vegas before Luca can finish recovering, but promises to return for them with payment for Mother Donna's services.
By the end of "Full on Gangsta", however, Arman is waylaid when a car bomb is planted by Hayak as a warning. The bomb goes off as Arman is about to make his way back across the border to bring Thony and Luca home. Delirious after the car bomb, Arman fights off the urge to pass out when he sees and hears Thony in a hallucination pleading with him to come back to her, instead of the actual source of the pleas, Nadia. Arman wakes several days later in a hotel near the border, but immediately tries to bolt when he realizes how long it's been. Despite Nadia's pleas for him to stay, he leaves and heads for the border to rescue Thony.
Throughout the events of "Coming Home Again", Arman works to help get Thony and Luca out of Mexico. Upon their safe return, Arman decides to work with Thony to take down Hayak when he realizes Hayak has killed a member of the crime syndicate who was loyal to him and left the tortured man's body in a freezer as a warning. Unfortunately, the tables turn and the FBI arrests Arman alongside Hayak.
In the season finale, "The Crown", Hayak and Arman face a final showdown in prison as a desperate Nadia turns to Thony to help her get Arman out before he is killed. Arman is jumped by some thugs loyal to Hayak, but manages to fight them off despite being wounded. As Nadia and Thony work desperately to save him, Arman must fight for his life. He eventually returns home, but finds Nadia has had enough. He is left to ride away on his motorcycle after she tosses out his clothes and tells him they're done.
