* ''Series/LukeCage'': Tone is the right-hand man of early BigBad, Cottonmouth. Tone is so aggressively loyal to his boss that when the messenger from a much more powerful criminal doesn't show Cottonmouth the proper respect, Tone makes this difficult by threatening said messenger. Later, when a young crook steals money from him, Cottonmouth learns that he's hiding in the barber shop where Luke Cage and his friend/mentor, Pops, work. Cottonmouth is an old friend of Pops and respects his rule that the barber shop is neutral ground; Tone thinks that this makes his boss look weak, so he goes against orders and shoots up the entire shop, accidentally killing Pops while ''still'' failing to kill the target they were after. This move is so poorly thought-out that not only does Cottonmouth become enraged by his friend's death, but this act is the IncitingIncident that leads to Luke Cage rising up against crime in Harlem. For this (and many, ''many'' other mistakes Tone makes by the end of the episode), he gets murdered by Cottonmouth.
