"Would you please stop talking to me like I'm the one who's crazy? You're the crazy one! You're the mass murderer!"
―Jade to Jesse.

Jade Kincaid is Jesse's wife. She is also the niece of police chief Warren, who is her late mother's strict brother.

Biography[]

Jade lost her mother and father to an untimely accident which saw her in the care of her controlling, watchful uncle Warren. Because of his police position, he has the authority to command fellow officers to follow his niece and her trailer park boyfriend Jesse.

Bride of Chucky (1998)[]

Jade has been seeing Jesse for over a year, which her uncle strongly disapproves. They attempt to hide their relationship by having their friend David act as a decoy, with Jesse hiding in the backseat of his car. However, Warren is not fooled and sends Officer Norton after them, forcing them to do a Breathalyzer until Warren arrives and takes Jade home.

The following evening, Jade sits outside her house talking to David when suddenly Jesse pulls up in his van. He convinces her to elope with him which she accepts. But before they can leave Lockport, Norton pulls Jesse's van over and finds a bag of marijuana inside, unknowingly planted there earlier by Warren. As they wait for Norton to file his report, his car suddenly explodes and kills him. Jade and Jesse quickly run back into their van and drive away. The two begin to blame one another for killing Norton, and become more suspicious of each other when David calls and informs them that Warren is missing.

Jade phoning David.

Reaching Niagara Falls, they get married at the Honeymoon Sweets 24-hour wedding chapel, then spend the night at the adjoining motel. During the night, she phones David as she is scared that Jesse is a killer and has lost his mind. He suggests to her that she should go to the police, but she is unsure that she can go through with it as she still loves him. In the morning, they discover the couple in the room across from them was murdered. Quickly grabbing their belongings, they run back into the van and prepare to drive away. Before they do, they continue to blame one another for the multiple murders, just as David arrives. As they drive, David manages to calm them down by explaining his reasons that neither of them could be killers. Just as the couple begin to see he's right and reconcile, David discovers Warren's dead body. Grabbing Warren's gun, David orders Jesse to pull over. As David tries to get the attention of a police car passing by, Chucky and Tiffany finally reveal themselves and hold everyone at gunpoint. David, unknowingly, backs too far off the road and is hit by a truck.

Tiffany preparing Jade.

Now being held hostage, Chucky and Tiffany reveal their plan to use Jesse and Jade as their new bodies. To keep the police of their trail, they force the couple into a stolen RV as they make their way to New Jersey. Tiffany prepares Jade's makeup, and also makes cookies for Chucky. Jesse then secretly gets Jade into a plan to turn the two dolls on one another, pointing out each other's flaws. As Tiffany and Chucky argue, Jade kicks Tiffany into the oven and Jesse pushes Chucky out of the window as he shoots at him, causing the RV to run off the road and into a ditch.

Jade, tied to a chair, is attacked by the burnt Tiffany. Jesse unties her and manages to get her out of the RV, where she is held hostage by Chucky. She is taken to the Forest Creek Cemetery, where Chucky orders her to jump down into his grave to open his coffin and retrieve the Heart of Damballa amulet from his skeleton. Jesse then appears with Tiffany, and they trade hostages. While Jesse and Jade embrace, Chucky throws his knife at Jade, but Jesse turns her around and is stabbed in the back. They are then tied up for the ritual. While Chucky begins the chant, Tiffany has second thoughts. The two dolls fight, and while Chucky is preoccupied with killing Tiffany, Jade is able to break free of her ropes and unties her husband. Jesse knocks Chucky into his grave with a shovel as Lieutenant Preston arrives at the scene, ordering them to drop their weapons. As the detective comes up to them and sees Chucky, she grabs his gun and shoots Chucky, finally killing him. Lt. Preston then calls his superiors, clearing Jesse and Jade of the murders and sending them on their way.
