Storylines
Luis Alcazar arrived in Port Charles in July 2002 with the specific mission of getting rid of Sonny Corinthos and Jasper Jacks. He hired Roy DiLucca to help him, although Roy wasn't always willing. Alcazar blew up Sonny's warehouse, killing Kristina Cassadine, Alexis Davis' sister. Then he had Roy steal some important maps to Jax's family oil wells. Sonny couldn't figure out why Alcazar would be after him. Soon it was revealed that Alcazar had Brenda Barrett, the past love interest of both Sonny and Jax, held captive on board his yacht. Alcazar had rescued her 4 years ago after her accident. When Brenda heard Alcazar tell Roy to kill Sonny, Brenda made her escape so that she could warn Sonny.

After Alcazar kidnapped the children of Felicia Jones, Roy's then-girlfriend, and then kidnapped Felicia, Roy agreed to kill Sonny. But what Alcazar didn't know was that Roy and Sonny had cooked up a plan to fake Sonny's death by Roy's hand. Alcazar believed Sonny to be dead, so he moved on to getting rid of Jax next. He told Roy to follow Jax and keep Brenda away from him if she showed up. But Alcazar grew impatient and told Roy to kill Jax. When Roy balked at the idea, Alcazar decided to do it himself. He went to the church where Jax was marrying Skye Chandler-Quartermaine and attempted to shoot Jax. But Brenda showed up in time to distract him.

Roy confronted Alcazar later and they struggled. Alcazar got shot in the stomach in the process. He had Monica Quartermaine kidnapped and brought to his hiding place to save him. Although wounded, Alcazar was still obsessed with Brenda and his mission to destroy her former lovers. He figured out where she was probably hiding, her old cottage. He went there and confronted Jax, shooting him in the stomach. But before he could finish him off, Sonny showed up and shot Alcazar. Alcazar was then put on trial for killing Kristina and for trying to kill Sonny, Jax, and Zander Smith, but the charges were dropped because he has friends in high places.

Still obsessed with Brenda, Alcazar tried to gain access to her again. He even tried to enlist the help of Carly Benson, and then Jax in his task. However, it was ultimately Skye who helped him get Brenda. She had discovered that Brenda wasn't really dying. Alcazar had paid off her doctors to tell her that she was sick so that she wouldn't want to leave him and return to Port Charles. He then made Brenda take 'medicine' for her illness, effectively keeping her subdued and his captive. Skye agreed to help Alcazar get Brenda out of Port Charles because she's afraid Brenda would try to get Jax back. With Skye's help, Alcazar kidnapped Brenda and got on a jet headed for South America with her. But Sonny heard about it in time to get on the plane as well.

The plane crash landed in a Caribbean jungle. Alcazar hid out and ordered his associates to kill Sonny while they were on the island. Sonny found him and tied him up. Before Sonny could kill him, Brenda grabbed the gun and tried to do it herself. Alcazar escaped and set off an explosion. While Sonny and Alcazar struggled, Jason Morgan and Carly showed up. They restrained Alcazar and headed back to Port Charles.

Once back in Port Charles, Alcazar ran into Alexis at the hospital and taunted her over not being convicted of her sister's murder. Alexis threatened to kill him. They met again later outside, and while arguing, Alexis went into premature labor. She begged Alcazar to help her, but he just walked away.

Sonny threatened to have Alcazar killed, and Marcus Taggert said that if anything happened to Alcazar, he would come after Sonny. Jason and Sonny discussed how to kill Alcazar without implicating Sonny. Alcazar visited Alexis in the neonatal ICU and Alexis attacked him. Later, Alcazar crashed a party at the Quartermaine mansion given in Brenda's honor. He told her he still wanted her, but she told him off and threatened to kill him if he didn't leave her alone. He left with Skye in his limo, driven by Jason.

Back at his hotel room, he slept with a very drunk Skye who passed out afterwards. Jason was making moves to kill Alcazar that night, but Sonny called it off because A.J. Quartermaine seemed to suspect something. Brenda went to see Alcazar and struggled with him, wounding him with a knife she found. She left without killing him. Someone else paid him a visit, which ended with Alcazar falling over the railing of his balcony to his death 14 stories below.

Several people had threatened to kill Alcazar, but Jason and Brenda ended up being the one's put on trial, with Alexis defending them. At the last minute, the real killer called with evidence that cleared them. After weeks of memory loss due to her severe inebriation at the time, Skye remembered seeing the real killer in Alcazar's room. It was Alexis, who was suffering from a mental illness known as dissociative identity disorder, which prevented her from being sent to prison. Alexis was actually faking her mental illness, but she played the system to get away with murder.
