Editing Jake Harper (section)

== Trivia ==

* In the episode "Ate The Hamburgers, Wearing The Hats," his complete name, Jacob David Harper, is disclosed. T
* The theme song from Seasons 1 to 8 features Jake singing, with Elizabeth Daily lending her voice to the character of Tommy Pickles from the Nickelodeon show Rugrats. 
* The exact moment Jake first had sex remains a mystery, but it's likely occurred in Season 8, Episode 1 with Tiffany and Joanne. They were caught leaving Jake's room, and he later denied any sexual activity, claiming they were just friends who slept on the floor while he slept on his bed. However, Charlie's observation of them leaving Judith and Herb's house, which is far from the beach, exposed Jake's lie. It's possible Jake had sex with his tutor or girlfriend, Megan, who first appeared in "Springtime on a Stick" and might have been involved in "Those Fancy Japanese Toilets." Another possibility is with Jennifer, Zoey's promiscuous neighbor in "Not In My Mouth!". 
* In "The Price of Healthy Gums Is Eternal Vigilance," a Plank plush toy is seen on Jake's bed, suggesting he enjoys watching Ed, Edd n Eddy. Although Jake's substance abuse would have disqualified him from military service, the decision to have him join the Army was likely a plot device to reduce Angus T. Jones' screen time. Jones, who was a Seventh-day Adventist and openly criticized his role in the show for contradicting his religious beliefs, was seeking a way out of his contract.
* It's been suggested that Jake might not be Alan's son, as Charlie begins to doubt this at the end of Season 6, Episode 1. This suspicion is heightened by the fact that many of the handymen at Judith's house resemble Jake. This could explain why Jake doesn't exhibit any traits from Alan, such as being frugal or desperate to keep a girlfriend. However, he does share some of his father's and uncle's unfortunate experiences with women, indicating he is a Harper. 
* Jake doesn't appear in Season 11, but he is frequently mentioned and his photo is seen in the season finale episode "Oh WALD-E, Good Times Ahead." In "Oontz, Oontz, Oontz," Jake makes an uncredited cameo through a tribute montage (compiled of footage from previous episodes) where Alan reflects on his time raising Jake. 
* Despite being talked about by both Jenny and Louis, Jake never meets either of them in the series.
