Hi, can someone please check the following sentences? Thank you.

It’s basically one of the episodic summaries.

Long summary
When Henry goes to John’s place to discovers Tomas’s lair, he found a police captain, David’s mutilated body. Tomas is the vengeful personality and his final target is to kill Alex, who is the key criminal of the Tassan case. Will Tomas be killed by Alex as well? Who will trap Tomas? John or Henry?

Short summary
When Henry goes to John’s place to discovers Tomas’s lair, he found a police captain, David’s mutilated body. However, Tomas still seek revenge to punish the main culprit, Alex, the final victim.

Gaya, say:

Tomas is a vengeful person, and he plans to kill Alex, a key suspect in the Tassan case.

I don't understand this part? [try to] ​ could you please explain? Thank you.

You don't really need "try to" there, but you can use it to emphasize the effort. Or that the likelihood of success is far from certain.
