What about Andrew Nabowski (still can't remember the spelling), the fellow who showed up to Hooligans?
He informed Fatrick he was on his way there and Fatrick hid at home, returned to the bar in the morning once Andrew was both not there and sleeping off a hangover, then manipulated Hooligans bar staff into violating a customer's privacy so that Fatrick could try to get Andrew in legal trouble, while hiding behind the courts and police.
Fatrick also needed a police escort when Dan Mullen came to a court hearing.
They are bullies, and rather than standing up to them, Fatrick tells tales and hides behind nanny's skirts.
