My guess: Jason is going to "save" him from these people/killing Jessica and that's what will make them become friends again.

I would like to believe that, but this whole story has been so incredibly tone deaf I don't know what we're supposed to make of him saying that. But I have a feeling @avclub-955e9aeb1bba63961ece64ab8d0e6e41:disqus is right about him being a bad guy.
