Did Jake think his bro was already dead when he talked to John on the


phone? i don't think so, but the way he went off on him, it looks that way. "I know it was you". He really screwed things up. *beep* was speeding all the time and had no sense of reality.

that was done just for dramatic effect. In real life Jake (Ben) had no idea Johnny Truelove had anything to do with his brothers disappearance until after they found his body. He did call Truelove (Hollywood) at one point though because he heard that he might be partying with him when he was missing. Everyone kept waiting for Zack (Nick to just come home at some point)
