Jack and his father-in-law, Kenneth Walsh are holed up in Shanks where Jack is cowering the the corner while Kenneth is fighting the zombies while berating his cowardly son-in-law. Jack recently got married to Kenneth's daughter, Kazmina and was spending time with Kenneth in Fortune City to become better acquaintanced when the zombie outbreak occurred. Chuck Greene is able to convince Jack that he is not safe, and he should follow him to the Safe House.

Ante Up[]

Main article: Ante Up

After being escorted back to the Safe House, Jack and two other survivors may challenge Chuck to a game of strip poker. Beating Jack in will reward Chuck with his helmet, which is a part of the Knight Armor. The helmet will remain permanently in Chuck's locker.

Jack will spawn in the Arena. Once defeated he drops his weapon, $10,000, and his Protoman Helmet. Defeating him in Sandbox Mode is a faster, easier way to attain the helmet.
