Hernan has two sons: Zizi (Michael Irby) and Dante (Jason Momoa). He wants Toretto and O'Conner dead when they plot to steal his money, even indiscriminately killing Hobbs' escort when they have Dom's crew in custody, causing a vengeful Hobbs to join Dom's effort.

As he crawls out and begs for Hobbs' help, Hobbs kills him in retribution.
