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 describes Jake's behavior as "lost in a fog when [he's] not flying into a rage" to a counselor, and in "[[One J at a Time]]" she shows anger over his inability to get over his father. His general meekness often causes Helen to make a majority of the decisions. When Jake goes into a rage, Helen ranges from humoring him to pushing back.
Helen has also, in several episodes, become frustrated or sad about the lack of "spice" in the marriage. Several times they ''have'' gotten it back ("[[Road Worrier]]", "[[Is It Fall Yet?]]", "[[Camp Fear]]"), and evidence shows that Jake is the lead in any activity and is good at making his wife... ''happy''.
