Your Character
He first meets you in the home you share with your father, the latter introducing him as a new partner for a new case in which he has been assigned. When he finds your bracelet in the area where they would've caught the criminals red-handed, he tells you that he won't tell your father. He also says that you can call him Jason. He surprises you when he says that you're an adult and can make your own decisions, but he wants you to help him and call him if you find out something big is going down. On more than one occasion, you can text him with information if you wish to. If you saw the blueprints from the crew and then looked at your father's list, you will make the connection that the next target is a Verrati plant and you are able to circle it on the list. If you do so, in Chapter 7, your dad and Jason will plan to go to said plant. When you tell Jason that the information is originally yours, he says that you will make a great detective one day. However, it turns out that the real target is a hauler leaving the plant you circled, so the crew still gets away. Jason is the one who gives you a heads-up when your father has found a photo of you driving a car.

When your dad finds out that you are involved with the MPC, you can choose to continue to work as Jason's informant or lie to him that you are no longer with them. You can also choose to tell your dad that Jason recruited you or not. If you decide to keep in contact with Jason, he will be relieved when you finally leave the MPC in Chapter 11. If you trusted him and kept him informed as much possible, in Chapter 12, when you discover the truth, he tells you that it was thanks to you that he saw through the MPC's plan.

Your Character's Dad
Jason works together with your dad on the case of the Mercy Park Crew. In Chapter 4 Jason and his wife have invited your dad and you to their place. Jason finds out about your connection to the crew but hides it from his partner. If you choose to tell your father about it in Chapter 8, he will be mad at Jason and punch him.
