Diego Muñoz, better known as Huck, works as a member of the crisis management team at Olivia Pope & Associates.

Huck is a former black ops agent/assassin for B613, the top secret sub-division of the CIA. He was married to Kim and together, they have a son named Javi.

Huck is a highly trained and highly damaged covert operative, the low-key and quietly brilliant Huck now swears his allegiance to Olivia Pope and will happily go very, very far to protect her or his colleagues at Olivia Pope and Associates. He's a seasoned spy and a masterful hacker with an admitted tendency for extreme measures—very, very extreme measures, the most extreme measures. But he's trying really hard to be good.[1]

History[]

Fresh out of college, "Huck" enlists in the marines as a Private First Class (PFC) leaving his girlfriend Kim behind. Shortly after beginning his tour in Kosovo he is called back to the United States where he meets with Crosby and is offered a position with the CIA, at the meeting he also met Charlie for the first time. There, he was trained by Charlie and became an asset to intel gathering through torture and technology.

He becomes a part of the CIA-funded, top-secret, off-the-books program, "B-613", with "Charlie", "Wink", "Matches", "Paul Gray", "Melvin Feen", and their case officer, "Crosby". In this program, they killed 3 world leaders and made it look like a heart attack.

At one point, Huck's enjoyment of his job began to disturb him and, because of the nature of his connection with CIA, his past connections and everything he had was taken from him, leaving him homeless and without any money when he contracted out. One day while on the subway, Olivia Pope finds and helps him. He has since then stayed away from his past activities and has been helping out at her firm as their tech guy.

Relationships[]

Kim[]

Kim was Huck's wife. They married and bought a house when Kim found out she was pregnant shortly after Huck started working for B613. Even though he knew he was not supposed to be married or have kids he still chose to do so because he loved Kim. Not too long after their son, Javi, was born Charlie payed a visit to their home reminding Huck about the rules B613 agents had to follow. Huck knew he had to get Kim and Javi away from Command and B613 so he had them pack up. But before he could leave with them, he was taken by B613 and put in the “hole” until he began to believe Kim and Javi where only a figment of his imagination. Years later he then saw Kim and Javi on a subway platform shortly after he left B613 and met Olivia. He reunited with them years after seeing them on the subway platform when Quinn found them for him but he ultimately decided that they where better off without him. It is unknown whether or not Kim and Huck divorced, if she kept his last name (Muñoz) or had Huck pronounced dead with his true name Diego Muñoz.(Seven Fifty-Two)
