Jocko is a fictional character by avant-garde group The Residents, first appearing in the 1995 CD-ROM project Bad Day on the Midway. He is voiced by Elmore Madison.
Background[]
Jocko was Ike's business partner, and they worked alongside each other at the Midway on the Three-Headed Abominable Snowman Exhibit. Ike had jokingly told Jocko that he has hidden gold somewhere on the Midway. Jocko was having an affair with Dixie, so Jocko resolved to kill Ike, abscond with the gold, and continue his affair with Dixie. In the scuffle where Jocko confesses his plan to what he thinks is a paralyzed Ike, Ike stands up and calls his bluff. They then struggle atop the workshop windows and Jocko breaks his leg, while Ike lands face-first in a vat full of sulfuric acid.
Jocko first appears on the Midway in a haphazard disguise consisting of a Stetson hat and fake beard, passing himself off under the alias "Jacky", warranting suspicion among Midway residents. He meets up with Dixie, and she gives him a job after he mentions that the "big snowman thing" could use some work. In reality, Jocko has returned to try and locate gold that Ike had previously told him about, and letting his gullibility get the best of him, he attempted to use that rumor as justification for returning, confiscating the gold, and running off with Dixie.
When he unveils his disguise, it's revealed that Dixie didn't know anything about the attempted murder plot he had written in the confession letter. He then discovers a missing tape on the console in Ike's workshop that would implicate him in the attempted murder.
Life Story[]
Jocko is the only other character besides Timmy without a fully animated life story. Most of his life story is told purely through expositional dialogue and story events.
Ending[]
If Jocko is the sole survivor, the game will "force" Jocko to go to Ted's room, where Ted is watching a copy of the tape that was stolen from the console.
Jocko confronts Ted about the tape, to which Ted dismisses his threat and tells him that a private person such as himself would never reveal secrets. Jocko threatens Ted with a knife, but Ted is unphased and attempts to kill Jocko with his usual modus operandi of placating him with a dart and reciting his monologue. A few sentences into the monologue, though, Oscar scurries into the room, causing Ted to panic and jump forward, impaling himself on Jocko's knife, killing him instantly. Jocko then frees himself of the influence of the dart, and he realizes the tape that Ted was watching was a duplicate.
He bids farewell to Timmy at the front gate, and then is promptly arrested as the police show up and recognize him from their original copy of the tape.
