== Relationship with Helen ==
Jake and Helen are and always have been much in love, but there is a strong undercurrent of resentment between the two of them in their relationship. In the episode "[[Psycho Therapy]]," Helen describeddescribes Jake's behavior as "lost in a fog when [he's] not flying into a rage" to a counselor. His general meekness often causes Helen to make a majority of the decisions. When Jake goes into a rage, Helen ranges from either humoring him or pushing back.
 
In "Psycho Therapy," Jake accuses Helen of having control issues, in which he is allowed no vices. Both of them are then asked to role-play as the other, and Jake portrayed Helen as a narcissistic career woman with an addiction to praise and does everything without empathy, while Helen portrayed Jake as a self-pitying manic-depressive who doesn't try to fix his own problems and is adverse to responsibility. Jake's assessment of Helen really hit home for her and upset her greatly, to which he apologized afterwards.
