Early Life
Max wanted to open a food truck in Chicago but couldn't afford to open it on his own, so he made a deal with Darnell James who paid for his truck. He then money laundered for Darnell's illegal drug deals in order to pay back the cost of the truck.

At some point, he was caught money laundering by Detective Sarah Barnes who insists he work with her as an informant or else she would arrest him for money laundering.

Before meeting Murphy he was a lady's man who constantly had sex and one-night stands with random women.

Season 1
While laundering Darnell's money he meets Murphy Mason. Murphy begins screaming about drug dealing and Darnell selling drugs which Max finds to be hilarious. He flirts with her and later asks her out in exchange for helping her with Tyson's case. She gives him a one hour date where they go to the beach and drink wine together. After the date, he gives her Tyson's mother's address.

Murphy is laying in her room talking to Jess when they hear rocks hitting her window. Outside of her window, Max is throwing the rocks and he demands a second date. When Murphy refuses he states he knows where she lives and will just keep coming back. She relents and states she'll go on a date for one drink with him which he celebrates and runs off after.

Later Max is forced to flee from Chicago after he being an informant is revealed. As a result, he ends his relationship with Murphy and runs away. His location and activities are unknown.
