Johnny Gavin (Rescue Me)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Johnny Gavin was a cop on the fictional FX drama Rescue Me. The character was played by Dean Winters.

Dean Winters Tommy's younger brother. He is a well-connected detective in the NYPD who reluctantly helps Tommy out in terms of getting him out of trouble with the law and providing stalker info on Janet and her new boyfriends. As the show progressed, the character becomes more and more openly resentful towards Tommy and having to clean up his brother's messes, which is coupled with the fact that Johnny has been carrying an unrequited crush for Janet for years. The relationship was finally consummated in the emotional aftermath of the death of Janet's son Connor. Tommy subsequently found out about the incident and delivered a brutal beating to his brother at their father's 83rd birthday party. Johnny eventually reveals to Tommy that Janet is pregnant, but he has no idea that Janet has cheated on him with Tommy. Soon after, Johnny is shot three times in the back during a stakeout and is killed. This devastates Tommy who hadn't yet reconciled with Johnny, but eventually was able to forgive him post mortem.
