* IncestSubtext: [[spoiler: Shadow was born and created directly from Chase's body after he tore out one of his own ribs which transformed into a baby Shadow which grew into her current form. None of this stops her from flirting with Chase, wanting to be his Queen, and becoming jealous over his affections. She even partially lampshaded the trope when she joked how calling him "Papa" hardly seemed appropriate.]]

He spends his days mocking the Xiaolin Warriors by forcing them to fight his robot animals and mocking his Heylin competitors by chaining a depowered Wuya to the wall, keeping an oversized Hannibal in a cage, and hanging Chase by his hands and ankles over a paintbrush that continually rubs yellow paint onto his stomach. None of them really respect him despite his victory, however.]]

* InvisibleParents: Jack's parents are never seen on screen but they are mentioned a couple of times in the show. They were mentioned to be rich and wealthy and apparently did not raise Jack as much as typical parents do. They often send his vast amounts of money to make up for their absences, which explains a lot on how Jack is able to afford a high tech house and create a lot of robot minions that are obviously expensive to make.
