## Biography

### Early life

Not much was said about Jones's early life, except that at one point, he accidentally threw cooking oil out a window.

### Work at Area 15.

At some point, Jared and James finds StrawberryClock's gateway portal in the desert and sends it to Area 15.

### Capturing the Frog

In *The Monkey's Paw,* Jared Jones is tasked along with an assistant to capture the 'flying frog', first seen recorded online. After capturing the flying frog, who happened to be the Anonymous Frog, he attempts to dissect the Frog before he teleports away.

In *Frogged Up,* Jones tracks down the Frog by the smell of his feet, which ends up being fecal matter. The Frog then tells him a story about someone who threw accidentally threw cooking oil out of a window, reminding him of a similar event. This allowed the Frog to walk away free.

### Acquiring the Monkey's Paw

Jones continues to track down the Anonymous Frog, later finding him in a McDonalds. He fails to catch the Frog, but does end up stealing his monkey paw, of which he not only concludes that the Frog wished for the ability to fly, but also uses it to make his own wishes. After the Frog tracks *him* down for the Paw, he fends off the Frog long enough to make his final wish, to destroy the monkey's paw so that no one else can use it and face the downsides. He straps the Paw on a nuke and launches it into space.

### Unemployment.

After destroying the Paw, Jared returns to Area 15's entrance and lets Dr. Michael Moles in, thinking it's the Russian base inspector Mikhail Marx. This mistake cost him his job. He ends up getting a job as a waiter at Dinendash, in part due to him being able to re-use his old government suit as work clothes without many problems. While working as a waiter, he serves the Anonymous Frog two steaks and a beer, who then goes on to tip $30:52 by paying $100 for a $69:42 meal.

### Re-hiring

When the Frog asks Jared to help him raid Area 15, he initially declines his offer of $10,000 several times on account of his past actions, which included allowing a stranger to walk in to record footage. When the Frog opts to hire his brother James for $20,000, he eventually accepts the offer.

When they find the time machine, James arrives to catch the Anonymous Frog. Tempted by getting his old job back, Jared betrays the Frog and threatens to shoot him.

Jared and James both guard the Puffballs DNA Database, blocking Dream from entry, only to get attacked by a block of TNT.

## Personality and traits

Jared Jones is a bald man with shades, a black suit, and a red tie. From *Raiding the Base* and onward, his shades are tinted purple.

Jared is incompetent as his job as a government agent, opting to do stupid things in his job such as dissection, throwing his case off over a bad memory, and letting a fake Russian base inspector enter Area 15.

At one point, he was willing to attempt to dissect the Anonymous Frog, as the first thing that he thought of after capturing him. At another point, he was willing to let the him go after being reminded of a big mistake he made in the past. After letting him go, he continued to go after the frog in order to find out how he could fly.

Jared also tends to call him 'the flying frog'.

The reason why he doesn't go after the Anonymous Frog after *The Monkey's Paw Strikes Back* and onward may be because he had already found the answer to his ability to fly, through the Monkey's Paw. This may also be because he had lost his job and has no longer use in going after the Frog.
