Biography
Abuse
Alex was a domineering man and the boyfriend of Sidney. Because of his bossy personality, he was abusive and frequently battered her. Due to her lack of self-confidence, Sidney endured his abuse for a long time and found herself unable to leave him, even though she wanted it to end. Because of these brutal acts, Alex was eventually targeted by an infamous serial killer known as Jigsaw. (Saw 3D)
Death
Alex and Sidney in the trap
One day, he and Sidney were subdued and abducted by the killer. When they woke up again, they found themselves several feet above the floor and were forced to cling onto two levers hanging from the ceiling. These levers consisted of sharp and pointy metal parts, which harmed their hands as they held onto them. Below them on the floor were several upturned lawnmowers. In order for one of them to survive, the other one had to let go off the lever and thereby fall into the lawnmowers. In panic, Sidney begged Alex to save them. He however tried to kick her of her lever without any hesitation. Realizing that she had no other choice, she slapped him in the face, causing him to fall down to his death, where his body was ripped apart by the rotating blades of the lawnmowers. As she was covered in his blood, Sidney began to scream. She had, however, survived and won her game and was therefore eventually able to leave unharmed. (Saw 3D)
Personality
Alex was a brutal and violent-tempered man who physically abused his girlfriend on an almost regular base without showing any signs of remorse. Due to Sidney's fear, he had the absolute control over her for a long time.
