Shawn was at a campsite with his cousin Kyle Baldwin talking about his neighbor when a light appeared from the sky. It was trying to take Kyle, but Shawn shoved him out of it. The future never wanted Shawn, but since he was the one who was taken he became a "4400". Shawn is the only unintended abductee to be featured on the show. Shawn is then seen with the rest of the 4400 as they are shown on tv. That is where his mother and brother see him for the first time in 3 years. With the rest of the 4400, he is in quarantine where he meets Richard Tyler. He asks about the tattoo on his arm, with Richard replying it was about someone he loved. Sean's name is called over the intercom's to be interviewed. He enters the room and is overjoyed to see his Uncle Tom there.

Even after Shawn brought Kyle out of the coma and the future agents explained what happened, Tom still felt hostile towards Shawn. During the second season when Kyle went missing, Tom went to Shawn to ask him what he knew about it. Shawn asked if something bad happening to Kyle was his fault, and Tom responded "it's been known to happen." Kyle reveals to Shawn that he was the one who killed Jordan Collier. Shawn "cures" him by removing some kind of field from him, causing an explosion. It was an unusual moment, even by The 4400 standards. Shawn became estranged from his family and went to live at the 4400 Center, where he developed a strong bond with Jordan Collier. After Collier's assassination, Shawn was left in charge of The 4400 Center, where he continued Collier's work in establishing a community where the 4400 can live in peace and work to harness their abilities for the greater good. He reluctantly begins sharing power with Richard Tyler upon the advice of Matthew Ross.

In The Wrath of Graham, Kyle gives Shawn a shot of promicin while he's in the hospital. This gives him the boost he needs to wake up from his coma. In The Truth and Nothing But The Truth Shawn is coaxed into running for the Seattle City Council. One of his opponents was Gabriel Hewitt until Gabriel decides to run for Mayor. In The Marked, Gabriel suffers a stroke for which Shawn thinks Jordan or one of his follower's is responsible. Shawn heals Gabriel, and asked him to change his views of The 4400. He tracked down Kevin Burkhoff and Tess Doerner at a diner where she was holding everyone hostage under the delusion that it was her sixteenth birthday party. He managed to convince Tess to let him heal her. Shawn greatly opposes Collier's distribution of promicin, leaving him the leader of a split faction of 4400s opposed to Collier. He was working with Kevin Burkhoff to develop a test which could determine who would survive the shot, but Jordan didn't want him to announce the research. Shawn remains one of the few pure characters, since Collier doesn't care about the deaths and Tom has become one of the Marked. In the season four finale, Shawn is integral to removing the nano-machines that made Tom a "Marked" and, presumably, Collier as well. Meanwhile, Shawn is forced to deal with the accidental death of his mother (Tom's sister), and the task of assisting in the suicide of his dying brother. At the funeral, Shawn, Tom, and Kyle renew their family relationship as a means of coping. Along with Tom and Diana, he is the only character to appear in every episode.
