Lucy keeps her relationship with Sage from Johnny. Do you believe it would have made a difference if he'd known earlier? Would he have done anything differently, perhaps?

I kind of wondered about this too. Would it have made him look for the benefactor in Garron which was what he did, or would he have looked at Garron in a different way and may have lead him to other findings about Garron's background and why he's so interested in Sage.

I'm not sure. He might not have acted on his attraction to Sage if he knew of her relationship to Lucy.

I think the dynamic between the two would have been different. And, he definitely would have looked at Alonzo differently. He lost a lot of valuable time thinking of him as the Bullet Catcher client.

I thinking knowing who Lucy was to Sage would have definitely caused Johnny to cool his jets indefinitely...

If Johnny had known that Sage was Lucy's niece he would have had a lot more guilt about getting involved. But I don't see how the relationship between Lucy and Sage make any difference when the Bullet Catcher directive is don't get personal with the principal to begin with. He should have been a lot more angry with Lucy for withholding that information from him.

I don't think it had any bearing on his not spotting Garron as a baddie. He just thought that the guy was on the make.
