Budde (Mary), N/A (Warren)



* DeceasedParentsAreTheBest: Downplayed; Sawyer rarely speaks of them, but despite Mary cheating on Warren and Warren's MurderSuicide, Sawyer only blames Cooper for his parents' deaths and doesn't have a negative word to say about either of them beyond an idle comment that Warren "never got a chance" to beat him.



* MamaBear: Mary's sole appearance has her desperately hiding her son from her furious, armed husband.



* AmbiguouslyRelated: It's not clear if he's Warren's brother (in which case, his surname would be Ford) or Mary's.



* EvilCounterpart: Hibbs is similar to Sawyer in many ways, having a manipulative side,a Southern accent, a penchant for nicknames (he calls Sawyer "Sawbucks"), a less-than-reputable lifestyle, and a rugged charm. However, Hibbs lacks any of Sawyer's redeeming qualities or his conscience; he plays Sawyer like a fiddle to get an innocent man murdered.



* NoodleIncident: Whatever the 'Tampa job' was, which left Sawyer very angry with him.

to:

* NoodleIncident: Whatever the 'Tampa job' was, which left Sawyer very angry with him. All we know is that Sawyer promised to kill Hibbs if he ever saw him again.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: Hibbs only appears once, but his manipulations are why Sawyer was in Australia, and the guilt over the murder Hibbs manipulated him into plays heavily into Sawyer's character in the early parts of the series.



Sawyer's partner and Sawyer was indebted to him. He was having Sawyer perform a "long con" on Cassidy. He threatened to kill Sawyer if he didn't go through with the con on her.
