| — Jason Brill asking Greg Heffley if the seat next to Greg is taken or not | ||
Jason Brill (known as Otha Harris in the online book) is a boy with several piercings and acne who almost sits next to Greg Heffley in one of his classes during Diary of a Wimpy Kid.
History[]
Diary of a Wimpy Kid[]
Jason comes into class late and tries to sit in the seat on Greg's right. When he asks if said seat is taken, Greg hastily lies that it is to stop him from sitting there, likely because he is already sitting between two boys he considers 'morons' and does not want Jason near him due to his appearance.[1]
Diary of a Wimpy Kid (2010 film)[]
In the 2010 film adaptation of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, he can be seen in 22nd place on the Popularity List.[2]
Online[]
Jason Brill plays the same role, going by the name of Otha Harris.[3]
Trivia[]
- Jason may be much older than Greg, as he has piercings and is much taller than him.
- One explanation is that he was held back at least once, which would explain the age gap, though another possibility is that Jason is actually in a higher grade and the class that he and Greg are in contain students from multiple grades.
- It's possible that Jason is related to Nester Brill, the online counterpart of David Nester, and that his online counterpart is related to Glenn Harris, as both pairs share last names. However, both these possibilities are unlikely, as neither version of Jason appears in the same version of the series as the person with the corresponding last name.
