Menzes was employed by the Wallace Corporation in 2032 to confiscate the Golden Garter's pleasure model Nexus-8s and to track down Elle.
Biography[]
Menzes and his bodyguard, Tatsuo, arrived in Fracktown and ordered a meeting with Emile Barnes, owner of the Golden Garter. During this meeting, Menzes informed that abuses that had occurred against the club's pleasure models where in violation of the lease Barnes originally signed with the Tyrell Corporation. Thus, he stated that the club's replicants would be turned over to the Wallace Corporation.[1]
After the meeting, Menzes entered a Vid-Phon call with Ms. Tyler to provide an update on his search for Elle. With no current leads, he was advised that Elle was last seen heading toward Las Vegas and that Niander Wallace preferred for her to be returned alive.[1]
Menzes later viewed footage taken from Barnes' fracktory just prior to its destruction. Identifying Elle in the footage, he reported it to Wallace, who requested Elle's head.[2]
After Menzes failed to locate Elle, he was summoned to Wallace, who disclosed that he assigned Tyler to form the Doll Squad to eliminate Elle. He was specifically tasked with recruiting Alani Davis, an LAPD officer with Blade Runner training who had previously survived an encounter with Elle. He offered Davis a procedure to correct her paralysis and transport to any Off-world colony for her and her wife. Davis accepted and was fit with cybernetics to allow her to walk.[3]
Menzes introduced Davis to the remaining squad members and they went to Death Valley, near where Elle had first awakened. There, they found members of Brekker Solutions dealing with a group of captured pirates. Upon learning from the pirate leader that Elle had fled the area, the group figured she headed toward Las Vegas. To prepare, Menzes led them to an abandoned spa being used as an equipment cache.[3]
