I tried, but the problem is that one of Bull's main character traits is his
undying loyalty.
He plays it VERY well! He would literally die before hurting his wife and
kids.

That's why I torture him with them ... because it brings out such a gut
level reaction in the player!

Plus, Bull's background really makes him a loyal family type.
His parents died in the Ohio riots trying to protect their Ork son.
Cheating and Adultery just aren't in Bull's language.

This is a great plot idea, but as I explained earlier, Mantids just aren't
like that for Bull and his partner Johnny.
After all, they helped the Mantids sneak out of Chicago!
