Background

Jonas' parents were (until recently) thought to be lost at sea several years ago while sailing around the 140th longitude; no wreckage was ever found. Jonas explained this incident in his earlier videos,but offered no explanation for their mysterious disappearance. He later mentioned that they used to "do weird stuff", and that they were traveling all the time, or constantly out on their boat.

In later videos, more information about his parents began to surface. His father was in an anti-Order movement and wrote a thesis on it, which was shared with many high-profile people. His parents also started a foundation, the goal of which has not yet been revealed.

When Jonas visited his aunt's house, he discovered a scrapbook of news clippings compiled by her. The initials of the people his father CC'd on the thesis matched the people who had disappeared. He took this to mean that they had been working for the resistance together and gotten snuffed out by the Order. Jonas assumed that the scrapbook meant his aunt, Alex, was also part of the resistance, however Tachyon and Bree suspected otherwise, warning Jonas against staying with his aunt. When he confronted Alex, she confessed her true allegiances and that she did indeed betray his parents. Adding insult to injury, Alex claimed that they are still alive and that they probably don't remember him.

Reunion

In Remember Them?, LaRezisto showed images of a couple, claiming they are Jonas's parents. He intimated that their memories had somehow been erased, and urged Jonas to come find them. Jonas soon revealed that they are, in fact, his parents, but that he has no intention of trying to find them, angrily blaming them for abandoning him. After realizing that LaRezisto was also filming him, Jonas went to find his family, hoping to help in the resistance.

When Jonas meets his parents again, although they do invite him in,he is greeted with much skepticism because they don't remember who he is. Jonas says that they have a picture of him as a child and is convinced they remember him deep down inside. It is at this reunion he is introduced to his younger sister Emma.

Anger at Jonas

After finding out that Emma is the new trait positive ceremony girl, Jonas made plans to take her and hide, however, the Order invaded their home and tried to take her by force. Jonas's parents were shot in the struggle, although the injuries were not serious, and they were dropped off at the hospital by Jonas and Daniel.

After losing Emma, Jonas made contact with his father who told him he did not believe anything Jonas had said, and wanted nothing further to do with him unless he had Emma.

Notes

• Though their names remain unknown, Jonas' father's initials are R.J.W., as seen on a copy The Order in the Modern Empire, a paper he once wrote for the Resistance.
• Some fans have speculated that Jonas' parents may be Bree's biological parents, however, this seems highly unlikely due to the fact that Bree and Jonas slept together.
