Jason "J.D." Dean[]

His relationship with J.D. seems to be strained after the death of J.D.'s mother. Their relationship is a joking switch of roles. Bud will make jokes like, "Gosh, Pop, I almost forgot to introduce my girlfriend," and J.D.'s response will be, "Son, why don't you ask your little friend to stay for dinner?".

J.D gets the idea of the bomb to blow up Westerburg High School when watching one of Bud's demolition videos. Bud is telling J.D. about how he had put a Norwegian bomb in the boiler room, which set off the thermals in the floors above. From there, J.D. builds the bombs to blow up the school.
