Deckard Shaw/Synopsis

The history of Deckard Shaw from the Fast and Furious franchise.
==Biography==
===Early Life===
Deckard Shaw was born at October 19th, 1973 in London, England. The eldest brother of Owen and Hattie Shaw, Deckard grew up with them together and was close to his siblings. When his younger brother started fights with the toughest kids or stole from the corner shop, it was Deckard who finished the fight and took the blame for the thefts, enduring their father's belt as a result. He taught Owen that a man must have a code to live by. He also created a lot of simulated grifts and heists as a child with his sister Hattie, naming them after pop culture references, prompting Hattie to admire and look up to Deckard.
===Military and MI6 Career===
In 1993, at the age of 20, Deckard enlisted in the British Armed Forces. By 1995, he had obtained the rank of Second Lieutenant, and was promoted to Lieutenant by the next year. In 1999, he was promoted to Captain. Around this time, Deckard became involved in clandestine operations. During his military career, Deckard developed a reputation of being a type of asset Hobbs claimed no government would ever admit to employing, but they decided he was needed for the time being.
In 2000, he made Major in the Special Air Service, a position he spent the next eight years in until 2008. On June 19th, 2007, he was made a recipient of the Victoria Cross due to risking his life during a mission on his country's behalf; however, Deckard chose to forfeit the award. Deckard began to earn a reputation, and an official story was created; stating that Deckard was an unstable military asset that no government would admit to hiring and that he was a necessary evil at the time.
After his military service, he joined MI6 with his sister Hattie and met fellow agent Brixton Lore, serving in a black ops unit, Task Force Black. The two were partners and brothers in all but blood until Eteon approached them and offered both of them jobs, in which Deckard refused and Brixton accepted. They sent Brixton to kill Deckard in hopes of keeping him from talking, but Deckard shot Brixton in self-defense. However, Eteon revived him and they killed Deckard's team and framed him as a rogue agent, forcing him to go into hiding and become a mercenary.
When Deckard was no longer needed, his superiors sent a kill squad after him. However, his abilities were underestimated and Deckard escaped and fell off the grid. Like Owen, he eventually became a mercenary for hire. However, the real story is Deckard had repeatedly made decisions that saved the lives of civilians and his teammates and was a hero in every sense of the world. However, Eteon used their influence to spread false information that Deckard betrayed his unit.
===Failed Manipulation===
At some point, Deckard was approached by a female cyber terrorist known as Cipher, who tried to offer him a job to build a military grade device called the Nightshade, but he resisted her request and even led her to seek his brother Owen to do the job instead.
===Fast & Furious 6===
====Assassination of Han Seoul-Oh====
Deckard's appearance at the end of Fast & Furious 6 is a cameo, foreshadowing events that would occur in Furious 7. Rehashing events that occurred in The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, the end of the film reveals that the driver of the Mercedes which ran Han Seoul-Oh's Mazda RX-7 VeilSide Fortune off the road in Tokyo was Deckard.
After Deckard steps out of his Mercedes, he throws the cross necklace that belonged to Dominic Toretto and Letty Ortiz beside Han's badly damaged RX-7, ignoring Sean Boswell and Neela who was both watching him shocked. The RX-7's leading fuel then ignites via the car's engine fire. As the car burns and Sean and Neela tried to rescue him, Deckard called Dominic and warned him, "You don't know me. You're about to" as Han's car was destroyed in the explosion caused by the fire. However  unknown to Deckard, Sean, Neela, DK, Kamata, Dom, Mia, Letty, Brian, Hobbs and Dom's crew, Han survives and goes into hiding.
=== Furious 7 ===
Following the events that resulted in Owen's hospitalization, Deckard caught wind of what happened to his brother. Heading for the Royal Defence Medical Centre where his brother was being treated, he attacked the armed personnel that were guarding his younger brother. In Owen's hospital room, Deckard reflected on their childhood and realized that they couldn't outrun the past. He decided to take revenge in his brother's stead and even threatened to harm hospital staff if they did not look after his brother.
Leaving the hospital, Deckard heads for the DSS Los Angeles office. At the office, Deckard observes the conversation between Luke Hobbs and Elena Neves. When Hobbs leaves his office, Deckard proceeds to hack Hobbs' computer and extracts information on the team responsible for harming his brother.
When Hobbs returns, Deckard and the DSS agent exchange blows when the latter attempts to escape. Though he manages to hold his own, Deckard uses the appearance of Elena, attempting to act as Hobbs's back up, to deploy and detonate a military grade explosive. He finds cover while Hobbs is forced from the building with Elena by the explosion. With the information extracted from Hobbs' computer, Deckard headed for Tokyo.
Deckard then delivered a bomb to Dominic from Tokyo, disguised as a package from Han. The moment he calls Dominic, it triggers the bomb as he ran Han's RX-7 with the Mercedes, barely leaving Dominic, his sister and Brian O'Conner time to escape before it detonates and destroys the Toretto house.
Deckard heads for Los Angeles and observes Han's funeral. Dominic takes notice of him and pursues him in his Plymouth Road Runner. Facing each other down in a game of chicken, they crash their cars into each other. They finally meet face to face and exchange words before Deckard pulls a gun on Dominic. Dominic is saved by the intervention of Frank Petty, whose black operations soldiers chase Deckard off, allowing him to get away.
Deckard again tries to kill Dominic and his crew at the Caucasus Mountains during the rescue of a hacker named Ramsey. Though he is forced to break pursuit, Deckard observes the rest of the crew's rescue attempt until the arrival of Mose Jakande. Following Dominic's escape down a cliff in the modified Dodge Charger, Shaw approached Jakande and the two formed an alliance.
Deckard attempts to kill Dominic and Brian in Abu Dhabi, however, he fails when the two are able to escape by jumping the towers in the Lykan HyperSport.
Dominic, Brian and Petty locate Deckard at a remote factory using God's Eye, Ramsey's hacking device which can locate any individual on the globe. However, Deckard reveals that he has allied himself with Jakande in a surprise attack. In the ensuing battle, many of Petty's men are killed and Jakande manages to retrieve God's Eye. Dominic, Brian and an injured Petty escape. Deckard and Jakande later follow the crew back to Los Angeles.
Deckard goes after Dom and chases him to the roof of a parking garage. As they play another game of chicken, Deckard's vehicle is crushed by Dom's Charger as he lifts up the front part of it. After that, the two engage in an epic one-on-one brawl on all over the roof of the parking garage. During the fight, Deckard manages to gain upper hand until Dom starts throwing around, allowing Deckard to hit him with one of the metal sticks which they fought with at the start of the fight. When Jakande sees the two fighting on the parking garage from his helicopter, he believes that Deckard is no longer useful to him and destroys a part of the parking garage, which causes the roof to fracture. Dom, standing on the stable end of the roof, stomps on the roof, which causes the part Deckard was standing on to collapse beneath his feet. Deckard is injured by the collapsing level of a parking garage and survives the rest of the building's collapse.
Deckard is later taken into custody in a secret prison by Hobbs, who promised to "wait for him" on the other side of the prison if he ever escaped.
===The Fate of the Furious===
Deckard reappears in the eighth movie from the franchise, still imprisoned. After Hobbs is betrayed by Dom and imprisoned for the theft of an EMP device in Berlin, he is brought to the very same prison Deckard is incarcerated in and is delivered to a cell. Annoyed, Hobbs realizes that Deckard is imprisoned in the cell next to his own and Deckard continuously mocks Hobbs, further fueling the rivalry between the two. After a breakout for Hobbs is instigated by Petty, Deckard seizes the opportunity to open his own cell as well, freeing all inmates of the prison and causing a riot. During the chaos, Deckard attempts to escape but is pursued by Hobbs. Eventually, Hobbs catches up to Deckard but before the two can fight, they are stopped by Eric Reisner and a group of SWAT officers who reveal that the entire riot was orchestrated by Petty.
To Hobbs and the team's surprise, Petty later reveals that they are supposed to team up with Deckard in order to find the cyber-terrorist Cipher. Both Hobbs and Deckard are appalled by the thought of working together and the rest of the team also voice their hatred for Deckard. Deckard himself makes clear that while he might be forced to work with Hobbs and the rest, he will never be part of their team. He also reveals that he hates Cipher because she was the one who corrupted his brother Owen and then left him for dead. Petty stops the argument between Hobbs and Deckard and orders them to work together. While the team is still coming together and trying to work out a way of finding Dom, they are being attacked when Cipher and her crew ironically attack the very building. After the government agents and the team have been disoriented by concussion grenades, Cipher recognizes Deckard and mocks Dom for already having been replaced. She also mocks Deckard, claiming that he made the wrong choice when she offered him to work for her. She adds that Owen seems to be the smarter one of the two Shaw brothers.
After Cipher and Dom have fled, Deckard tracks them down to New York City. There, they once more prepare to take down Cipher and find Dom. As they are passing time, Hobbs reads Deckard's military rap sheet and learns that Deckard was a hero during his time in the military. Hobbs offers to help Shaw with some repairs directly after, implying that he is beginning to think of Deckard more than just an enemy. However, they are not even close to becoming friends and although the two insult each other again, they laugh it off afterwards.
When they find out that Dom has trapped and is attacking the Russian Defense Minister, the team sets out to stop him. The entire team confronts Dom after he obtained the Minister's suitcase. They pursue Dom in a car chase through Manhattan, attaching steel wire to his car to take him down. However, Dom manages to free himself from all the wires, causing all of their cars to crash. He attempts to escape on foot, but is pursued by Deckard. Eventually, Dom turns around, draws a gun on Deckard and shoots him in the chest twice, seemingly killing him. However, during the finale, it is revealed that Dom had previously made a deal with a crime lady who is revealed to be Deckard and Owen's mother Magdalene. The two managed to fake Deckard's death and Magdalene reveals that they have to take down Cipher. She also tells Deckard that he has to take Owen along.
Together with Owen, Deckard boards Cipher's untraceable plane in mid-air with the use of jet-pack suits. While Cipher is dealing with problems on the ground, Deckard and Owen storm into the plane, revealing themselves to Cipher who is shown to be stunned for the first time. She sends her security teams to the brothers' position, but Deckard and Owen manage to kill them. Owen heads to the cockpit to hold the pilot at gunpoint while Deckard frees Dom's son from Cipher, taking away any influence she has on Dom after reporting this to the latter. Deckard take the infant boy and put headphones with soothing music on his head in order to prevent him from noticing the chaos and death all around him.
Deckard eventually confronts Cipher. Cipher notes that Deckard is out of bullets, but he replies that he does not need bullets to eliminate her. He vows to kill her for what she did, but Cipher claims that there is one flaw in his plan, as Cipher is the only one holding a parachute. With the press of a button, Cipher opens the plane's door and is sucked out immediately. Deckard, however, manages to get hold of both Dom's son and a handle, preventing himself from being sucked out of the plane. The doors are sealed moments later.
After the boy is safe and the team is back together, Deckard joins the celebrating family along with both Petty and Resiner in New York City. With their differences set aside, he is soon welcomed to Dom's family in the end, now being fully redeemed.
===Hobbs and Shaw===
====Enlisted by the CIA====
After receiving a call from his superiors, Deckard drove his 2017 McLaren 720S to a night club in London to extract information from Lermotov. After defeating all of Lermotov's bodyguards, Deckard used rope to dangle Lermotov out of a window, threatening to drop him if he did not divulge the information he needed. After receiving his intelligence, Deckard left Lermotov dangling from the window and exited the night club.
Deckard then went to visit his mother in prison, where he berated her for not successfully escaping, to which she responded that it would be facilitated if he brought her a birthday cake with a nail file hidden inside. She then expressed her wish that Deckard would come visit her one day along with his sister Hattie. Following MI-6's decision to issue a kill order on Hattie, the CIA enlisted Hobbs and Deckard with locating Hattie and securing a virus called the Snowflake. Deckard refused to work with Hobbs, with the duo insulting the other before Deckard left the building. Deckard proceeded to visit Hattie's apartment, where he noticed the traps Hattie had left behind. After using Hattie's computer, he noticed the presence of Eteon soldiers in the room and proceeded to defeat them.
====Attack on the CIA London Black Site====
As Hobbs pulled a gun on Hattie, Deckard infiltrated the building, holding Hobbs at gunpoint and ordering him to lower his weapon. As the duo argued, the building was attacked by Eteon. Super soldier Brixton Lore subsequently kidnapped Hattie and jumped out the window, running down the building. Hobbs and Deckard decided to work together to liberate Hattie. After defeating the soldiers, Hobbs jumped out the window, with Deckard using an external elevator. Hattie managed to attack Brixton and free herself, and as Brixton prepared to retaliate, Hobbs crashed into Brixton. Hattie then fought and killed the remaining Eteon soldiers along with her brother, although the trio were unable to defeat the super soldier. Brixton and Deckard were shocked to see each other once more, although the trio escaped Brixton and the other soldiers pursuing them in Deckard's McLaren 720S.
====Infiltration of Eteon Weapons & Biotech Facility====
Upon successfully escaping Eteon's pursuit, Hattie informed Hobbs and Deckard that she had injected herself with The Snowflake and therefore only had less than two days left to live. Hobbs revealed that he had footage of someone who might be able to remove the virus, and upon showing the image to Deckard, discovered that the man, Professor Andreiko, was purchasing a newspaper found only in one area. Upon interrogating Andreiko, Hattie discovered that Andreiko had developed The Snowflake as a vaccine to aid humanity before Eteon had reprogrammed it to eliminate humans they had deemed weak, and that they had only two choices: either Hattie had to be killed with her body burnt without recognition, or they would have to use an extracting machine at Eteon Weapons & Biotech Facility in Ukraine, with the trio choosing the latter option.
Needing to lay low, Deckard, Hobbs and Hattie retired to Deckard's place of residence to gather their thoughts. Using his skills to alter their bio-metric facial and fingerprint scans, Deckard ensured that they could travel to Moscow to meet a contact of his, Margarita. During the plane ride, the two argue constantly, until their argument is broken up by Air Marshal Dinkley, who offers his services to the pair. Realizing that Eteon Weapons & Biotech Facility was too defensive to mount a full-scale assault, the group formed a plan in which Madam M would deliver Hattie to Brixton at Eteon's front door, thereby ensuring Hattie would be brought to the extracting machine.
Deckard and Hobbs were ejected from a jet flying over the facility, parachuting through one of the funnels. As they infiltrated the compound, Hobbs went through one door, facing an opponent much taller than he was, although he was swiftly able to defeat him. Deckard, however, was forced to fight multiple opponents. Despite winning, he faced difficulty opening the door. After numerous tries, Deckard and Hobbs were able to enter the main facility, only to find their path blocked by Brixton and Eteon's other soldiers, where the duo were rendered unconscious. Deckard and Hobbs were then administered electrical shocks as a form of torture, with Brixton revealing to the pair that his superior wished for both of them to be recruited and not killed.
As she and Andreiko fled the facility with the extracting machine, Hattie noticed that Deckard and Hobbs had been apprehended and were being tortured. Hattie overheard Brixton revealing that Deckard never betrayed his team during his days at MI6 and that the story she had heard was fabricated. Horrified that she had cut ties with her favorite sibling over a lie, Hattie infiltrated the room. Noticing Hattie's entrance, Hobbs informed Brixton that he wished to join Eteon and subtlety informed Deckard of Hattie's "Mick Jagger" maneuver, at which point the two men notified Brixton that not only would they not join Eteon, but that they would kill him and his fellow soldiers. Hattie then revealed her presence, holding Brixton at gunpoint, only to discover that Eteon's weaponry required fingerprint activation.
Before Brixton could subdue Hattie, Andreiko stormed into the room using a flamethrower to burn Brixton before incinerating and killing the surrounding soldiers. Deckard and Hobbs broke out of their restraints and, along with Hattie, attempted to escape the facility with the virus extracting machine, only to be pursued by Brixton. As Deckard and Hobbs had placed an explosive timer within the building, the facility began to self-destruct, causing tons of rubble to fall on them. As Brixton dueled with Deckard on the back of their truck, Hobbs commanded Hattie to drive the truck while he aided Deckard. Despite the duo not strong enough to defeat Brixton, the ensuing rubble fell on him and the vehicle; while Brixton survived along with Hattie, Deckard and Hobbs, the machine required to extract the virus was damaged during the chaos.
====Battle of Samoa====
As the trio got to a safe location, Hattie implored to Deckard that she should be killed and her body incinerated to prevent The Snowflake's dispersal, much to her oldest brother's vehement protests. As Deckard spoke about family and its importance, Hobbs glanced at a family photo of him and one of his brothers back home in Samoa, and informed the Shaws that they could go there as his brother Jonah was one of the best mechanics he knew, capable of fixing the machine.
After being goaded by the Hobbs matriarch, Sefina, the Hobbs family began to aid the Shaws, and the group spent all day creating a kill-box and planting holes and explosives for their upcoming foes. As Sefina had sold the family's firearms, the group armed themselves with traditional Samoan weapons. Meanwhile, Eteon managed to track their flight to Samoa, prompting Brixton and a handful of soldiers to travel there.
As Brixton and Eteon soldiers approached the Hobbs residence, Hobbs gave a Samoan war cry along with his brothers, triggering the battle. Since the extraction process took thirty minutes, Hattie sat out most of the battle, although she was forced to join when she was attacked by Eteon soldiers. While she succeeded in disarming a number of them, she was soon apprehended by Brixton, who kidnapped and brought her to his helicopter, forcing Deckard, Hobbs and his brothers to attach their trucks to the helicopter to prevent it from taking off, causing it to crash. Hattie survived the crash, along with Brixton and one of the soldiers. Brixton ordered the lone soldier to empty his handgun's bullet clip into Hattie's heart once she had successfully expelled The Snowflake, and left to subdue Hobbs and Deckard.
Hobbs and Deckard fought Brixton, but they realized that he was able to pinpoint their individual attacks and counter them, and was only able to be hit when they attacked at the same time. Deciding to truly work as a team, the duo announced that they would watch each other's backs and sustain a blow so that the other could attack Brixton, and managed to fight the super soldier, defeating him in combat. With only a few seconds left on the timer, Hattie attacked the soldier, rendering him unconscious. Hattie then recovered the vial containing the virus and rejoined Deckard and Hobbs. Due to Brixton's defeat, the anonymous director of Eteon chose to trigger the kill-switch embedded within Brixton's mind. Realizing what had been done, Brixton gravely let out a laugh before being killed, falling backwards off the click and into the rapids below. Moments after, the trio heard the voice of Eteon's anonymous director, speaking through a voice filter, announcing that they had been impeded by Hobbs and Deckard before and that their fight was not yet over.
====Liberation of Magdalene Shaw====
In the aftermath of the Battle of Samoa, in which Hattie and Deckard rekindle their familial bond, they pay their mother a visit in prison, where Deckard gives his mother a cake. Realizing that there is a nail file hidden within, she asks if her two children would assist in her escape, prompting Hattie to deliver her usual pre-combat line.
====Post Credits====
Sometime at the pub, Deckard received a call from Hobbs to see how he has been before looking back as he heard the police commanding him to come out and even called him "Hugh Janus". Deckard said to Hobbs that he is a bastard and asked that he has no idea what he started. Hobbs then answered about what he said on the airport after Hobbs got stopped by the police, "it's gonna involve rubber gloves and a body cavity search", which Deckard replied, "Not a chance". He went outside to face the police.
===F9===
Some time after Hobbs & Shaw and the events of F9, Deckard was in his hideout, kicking a punchbag, which happened to have an unnamed man inside who surrendered and told Deckard that he would give him a flash drive containing plans. However, Deckard revealed he already had the drive and was using the punching bag for his physical exercise. After hearing a knock at the door, Deckard turned around, opened the door and it was Han Seoul-Oh. Deckard was horrified that Han was still alive, having believed him dead after crashing into him in Tokyo.
