In spite of this however he is a truly caring and compassionate man who looks out for his friends and offers comfort and support to those who need it; for example this can be seen in the time were he allowed Emily Fitch to confide in him regarding her envy and suspicions towards her girlfriend Naomi as well as the times were he helped Freddie find Effy in the midst of a busy carnival and when he saved Effy from certain death. Following his killing of John Foster Cook matured heavily and became a more pacifistic, paranoid and solitary figure vowing never to kill anyone ever again.

He did this most notably when he gave Emily Fitch advice about envy and the problems it brings for someone, when he reassures Freddie that Effy's suicide attempt was not his fault and that both of them have to be strong for her and when he saved Effy from committing suicide before reassuring her that several events regarding her past had actually happened; something which she found impossible to believe at the time thanks to Dr. Foster's false medicinal treatment to her.
Eliminating Villains- Cook threw his abusive and repulsive father overboard on false the latter's boat to stop him coming back to Bristol with he, Effy, Freddie and JJ. Cook later killed Dr. John T. Foster in vengeance against the man for killing his best friend Freddie and corrupting the mind of Effy. Finally Cook fought against Louie in an intense brawl until he managed to incapacitate him.
