“ | Now, over at St. Henry's they have a fantastic microsurgeon, Dr. Daniel. As long as you're there in the next 10-12 hours, good chance it'll reattach! Provided you have this. So give me a call when you have the rest of the money. Probably sooner better than later, I'd think. Good to finally meet you, Will. | „ |
~ Jasper after severing Joe's finger. |
Jasper Krenn is a minor antagonist in Season 2 of You.
He was played by Steven W. Bailey.
Role[]
A local criminal (likely a loan shark considering his "specialty") affiliated with the Russian Mob, Jasper, reached out to the hacker known as Will Bettleheim, paying an upfront fee of $50,000. Will then snubbed Jasper on moral grounds and refused to return the money, leaving Jasper furious.
Jasper eventually mistook murderous bookstore owner Joe Goldberg, who kidnapped Will and assumed his identity, for Will and greeted him cordially outside his workplace, Anavrin. Having undervalued the debt, Joe made $3,000 off a book forgery and paid it to Jasper, only to be shocked by the actual debt, but he promises to pay it later regardless. Jasper initially plays it cool and assures Joe that they could meet later, but then severs Joe's right pinky finger. Still keeping his friendly demeanour, he drops the finger in an ice packet, assures Joe he'll have it back later if he gets the money, and leaves.
After several failed attempts to raise $47,000, Joe gives up and decides to surrender the real Will Bettleheim to Jasper. He brings Jasper to the self-storage facility, where he presents to him the imprisoned Will sleeping in a glass cage. However, Jasper concludes that if Joe couldn't get the money out of Will, he wouldn't to be able to either. Jasper then menacingly approaches Joe with a knife, intending either kill or to lop off another one of his fingers for failing to get the $47,000. In self-defense, Joe stabs him in the chest with a nearby knife, killing Jasper, and then hallucinates his late girlfriend, Guinevere Beck, whom he murdered.
Joe subsequently disposes of Jasper's body by dismembering him, feeding his limbs into a meat grinder, and throwing bags of the resulting gore into a rubbish bin.
Appearance[]
Jasper is a portly, friendly-looking man who Joe describes as looking like a comic book store manager. He wears a dark blue shirt, black trousers, and a green jacket. He is almost always smiling, even when he threatens and attacks Joe. The only time his smile falters is after he is stabbed.
