to:

* MissingMom: To Locke, whom she abandoned at birth. She comes back into his life just long enough to send him Cooper's way, then skips out on him again.


Added DiffLines:

* EvilSoundsRaspy: He has a low, gritty voice that fits with his shady appearance and even shadier deeds.
* EvilVsEvil: He's an intimidating criminal who was cheated by and wants to get revenge on Anthony Cooper, a sociopathic con artist.


Added DiffLines:

* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Jimmy ''Bane'' is not a name that inspires confidence.
* ObviouslyEvil: Jimmy's raspy voice and [[FauxAffablyEvil transparent pleasantries]] quickly make it clear that he's a shady, untrustworthy person.


Added DiffLines:

* RightForTheWrongReasons: Frainey doesn't think that Locke seeking out his birth father will end well, doubting that Locke's father even knows that John exists. He's right that Locke meeting Cooper will come to a bad end, but it's because Cooper is well aware of Locke's existence, and is just using him to get a kidney (which turns out to just be the ''start'' of Cooper's negative impact on John's life).
* SmallRoleBigImpact: Frainey only appears in one scene in one episode, but he's the one who tracks down Anthony Cooper, allowing Locke to meet his biological father and setting off all the misery that follows.
