Jake isn’t going to do anything with them….Except sell them to the Clique leaders.
Jake is a very complex character. We know that he is Schizophrenic….and that he craves both power and admiration. Right after he arrived at Bullworth, he began his smuggling activities, not just to gain cash, but to gain control of the school. But Jake, bright as he might be, makes mistakes because of his anger and impatience.
When he got pissed at Tony for usurping his clothing operations, he tried to run him down with a car, which he wreaked, bringing the Prefects. This caused to him to go underground to avoid being caught. Without his meds, Jake slipped deeper into paranoia, and planned out and executed the bombings. He planned it to start a clique war, and in that way, in his deluded mind, he would be able to step in and take control.
What he didn’t figure on, though, was the interference of the Police, and the lockdown of the school and the scattering of the Cliques for awhile. He then came up with another plan. He would change his identity, call the clique leaders together, and claim the bombings were the work of terrorists, thereby controlling them with fear. This has worked for awhile, but the problem is, Jake is not on the scene to take the glory. Stuck at the souvenir tent selling weapons and clothing is not what he wants. He wants control, and he wants everyone to bow down to his greatness. This is not going to happen as long as he is Ace Adams, Carnival flunky.
So, he has hatched a new plan. He will equip the cliques with all sorts of weaponry, especially the newly-found Air Rifles, then come up with a way to incite a REAL clique war….And then step in and somehow halt the fighting, save the school, and be everyone’s hero. How he is going to do this isn’t exactly clear to him…Yet. But Jake doesn’t let little things like details get in the way of his plans. Even though he has failed to accomplish his goals so far, he is sure that this plan will somehow succeed.
What’s going to happen ? Stay tuned to the Never Ending Story in the coming months to find out...................
