Jack the Mexican is an inmate who comes from a wealthy family and has an extremely difficult time adjusting to prison life. Addicted to cocaine, he is at the party where Thomas first tries the drug. Jack often comes to Thomas for advice and solace, and Thomas is nice to him, although he teases him frequently, because Jack's gullibility amuses him.
