After the bombs[]
When Jake came back to Jericho to collect the inheritance of his grandfather's money, Johnston refused to sign it over, until Jake could prove he was living a more productive life. Despite their differences, Johnston still cares about Jake but is reluctant to show it: like when Jake saves the kids in a Bus Accident. He soon realizes that Jake returned a changed man after he witnesses some of Jake's actions. He is very sympathizing towards his sons and wife. He is very understanding and a leader as well: Jake is more like him in this way. That's why they tend to fight a lot. He truly cares about his town and will help his town at any means cost. He ends up falling sick with the flu and his sons risk their lives going to Rogue River to help save his life. When Jake was hypothermic, he discovers a bit of Jake's past and he realizes he and his son both share the pain of combat experiences.
During the New Bern-Jericho War, he was critically injured, resulting in his death. He was killed by New Bern troops under the command of Phil Constantino.
