Jack: I don’t think we ever really got over that…language barrier.
Ro: Nein, it’s—it’s not your fault.
Jack: What the hell! You speak English?
Ro: Of course I do.
Jack: You’ve spoke English the whole time I’ve been here!?
Ro: … *shrugs*

Headcanon:
Jack wasn’t nicknamed “Jack the Lad” for his attitude. He was nicknamed after Jack Spry (so close to Frye, right!?) from the 1868 play “Jack’s the Lad; or, The Pride of the Ocean.”
It’s so good. Read it or I’ll scream.

You know, someone probably has said this, but looking at this scene and playing this level drives home the fact that as much as Jack loathed Jacob, he also desperately tries to imitate him as well.
Jack is as much Jacob's foil as he is Evie's; he's the worst part of Jacob, albeit more twisted. He has the cocky attitude and self-centered righteousness that Jacob exhibits throughout the game as a young man, convinced of his just cause and heedless of the chaos and pain that occurs in his wake, so long as his mission, his "liberation" of London is completed.
Of course, Jacob is far more empathetic and caring, as shown when he refuses to follow Roth's intended murder of children. Jack lacks this empathy and moral compass, but nevertheless still tries to emulate his mentor: the manner of dress, the top hat, taking control of London via bloodshed and a gang. He's the worst parts of Jacob left to fester, and that makes him Evie's foil; in fact, given that Jacob treated him as a son and even took him to India where seemingly both he and Evie had a hand in his fear training, he is practically her kin and makes the entire situation all the more tragic.

I made this for a dumb TikTok before, and I still keep it because it’s golden.

What a man. “So drunk he could not remember dying.” I wish I was drunk.
An Irishman snuck up on me as I admired the stone. I did not mean to hit him but he scared me half to death.

I requested some art of my Red Dead character Roland and this is what I got back. He looks AWESOME and I’m super happy. Thank you to the talented artist Pommy on Quotev—please go check her out!

Jack’s wiki is kind of a mess. (How do in-game files contain unused content?) Nonetheless, I’ve searched for evidence of this entry and have never come up with anything. It sounds uncertain of itself, and I’m convinced it’s fan-written.

I don’t think I’ll use that for my Red Dead character, though…

Nimrod was, in fact, a real Victorian boys’ name.

Jack the Ripper from Assassins Creed Syndicate and from the indie movie From Hell to the Wild West… Something looks familiar here, doesn’t it?
Meanwhile in Red Dead: “Okay you caught me—BYE.”
