Detective Hoffman

Detective Mark Hoffman is a fictional character and the secondary antagonist of the Saw franchise. Mark was a old long-serving police officer for the Metropolitan Police Department, as well as the first accomplice, and subsequently the successor of the Jigsaw Killer, John Kramer. Like his mentor and partner, he designed death traps that, for survivors, give them reason to appreciate their lives. There are a few major differences however. Unlike Amanda Young, most of his traps gave the victims the chance to escape, however, he had no emotion towards his subjects, and in general, brandishes a very monotone personality.

Furious at this, Hoffman captured him and placed him in an inescapable Pendulum Trap that mirrored the M.O. of the Jigsaw Killer and watched as he was bisected and died. After arriving at his apartment, he unknowingly encountered John Kramer (Jigsaw) in an elevator. Noticing that only one button was lit, Hoffman was suddenly attacked from behind and rendered unconscious. He woke up in Jigsaw's lair and was strapped to a chair with a modified double-barrel shotgun aimed at his head: John warned that if he attempted to escape, he would trigger it and kill himself. John then explained that he has evidence that proved Mark committed Seth's murder, and proceeded to test Mark's will to live by pulling the unloaded barrel's trigger. He then released Mark and offered him an ultimatum; he could kill John and have all his evidence released, thus destroying him and his career, or "redeem" himself by learning John's "rehabilitation" methods truly worked. As Mark contemplated his options, John showed that he could have killed him by firing the loaded barrel, and questioned what his sister would think. Mark then accepted his offer.
