Trivia

• Mr. Pritchett faked his death at the age of 63, as mentioned in "Hawaii".
• In "Patriot Games", Jay mentions that his father fought for the country (U.S.), thus indicating that he had fought in the war.
• On the 25th anniversary day of his fake death, his grandson Mitchell got married.
• Growing up, Jay did not recieve as much emotional support from him as he would have liked which may have been a contributing factor on to why Jay is a cold person often.
