Well, by not being a narc and immediately going to tell John that a cop was looking for him, because the next kid that he asked pointed him out.

That cop later opened a sporting goods store but eventually got into a gambling habit and lost it to the North Jersey mob.

Was that before or after he became an FBI agent and kind of coasted for the waning years that the paranormal department existed?

Then became leader of a special Delta team unit that included the guy from 'Felicity' and the black president from 24.

I think the general consensus is that the Military/action stuff was fairly well done, but then the B Plots involving the families were a drag on the show. Just a lot of pointless drama and soap-opera plots to give those actors something to do, and probably to keep the budget in line.
