Role[]
Being a close supporter of Carver, Jones informed Carver that they're ready to release their new software full of bugs that will force customers pay for upgrades, much to Carver's delight. Along with the other executives, Jones was told of Carver's next plan to draw attention to an imminent war between England and China, thanks to Stamper and Captain Scott commandeering a stealth ship to sink a British frigate and frame the Chinese Air Force for it.
However, this was not the case when James Bond and Wai Lin foiled Carver's next move of sending a stolen British missile into Beijing, destroying the stealth ship and killing Carver and his crew in the process. It is unknown what happened to Jones and the other executives; either they lost their jobs and got arrested for their involvement in Carver's plot, or they may have fled the authorities.
