Its pretty obvious to me that Jade is not a nice woman.
This doesnt mean that she is "bad" though.
If you pursue her, later on there will be the Sex-vid which Stephen Burke is watching. And if i remember correctly, it isnt the one the MC was recording with his phone, its another camera installed in the room... it wouldnt surprise me if Jade knows about that camera.
But nevermind, it doesnt matter if you pursue Jade or not... the outcome will be the same for Maya/Sage/Josy/MC, if i learned one thing about the game, we dont have any real influence on the plot (yet). Only the "reactions" of the people are different. So yeah, maybe it will make a little difference how the scene at the Burkes will play out if you was with Jade or rejected her, but overall, the outcome will be the same... and iam pretty sure, Jade will have the reins in hand here.
If this will be good or bad for Maya... we will see... but yeah, the foreshadowing is not good.
We know that Stephen Burke gives sholarships out for sex. Mona refused, Monas sholarship was erased and she is gone. Quinn, Rio and camilla are in. Sarah and Melanie maybe too (not so sure about that, maybe they are just fucking a little for money). Quinn is the one running the show for Burke. Sage knows shit about that, and yeah she doesnt know anything important... Sage to me is a very very weak president... it sure needs very poor eyes to not notice what Quinn is doing with all the girls.
And the MC doesnt know that either... he knows of the "restaurant" of course, but to the MC its pretty much just money for sex, not some big thing with Burke included, we know more than the MC so far. That he doesnt adress this with Sage is a big upfuck for me... even more so at the end of EP8 when the mc starts a serious relationship with her. My oh my... open your fucking mouth and talk about issues.
Jades role in all this remains to be seen. She knows that Stephen is fucking students... does she know that he is giving sholarships for that too? Dont think so...
Is she using the MC to get back at Stephen? For sure, and thats why i think that she is absolutley aware of the camera, maybe installed it herself to make the vid.
So many times it was questioned why the MC freaked so out at the end with "fuck fuck fuck fuck..." if you not pursue Jade, whats the big deal? Well come on, even the not fully aware MC knows, the Burkes mean bad business... Tybalt alone is a porblem big enough to freak out... seaking out for help from Tybalts family... yeah... thats a damn "fuck" in the making. Jade here or there. There is know way this will go smooth and Maya is happy without any problems... the MC is imediatly aware of that when he sees the pictures of course its a pretty damn big "fuck"
And yeah, Jade is a psycho to me too... and how she treats Tybalt... ugh... we have the option to call her mommy during sex... wouldnt surprise me if she will ask the MC sometime in the future if she can call him tybalt oO
either way, Jade is not a nice person, and a psycho too and she knows some things at least, which she hides but could destroy Stephen with it. Maybe she doesnt do it cause of Tybalt (would have consequences for him too obviously) or yeah... her role in all of this might be bigger than we know.
