Jennifer Mason - Emma Lahana
Jennifer Mason was born to John and Nancy Stevens, who gave her up for adoption. Her adoption was arranged by Agent Howard, and she grew up in Boston, Massachusets with wonderful adoptive parents, whom she credited for her law-abiding behavior and excellent credit score. When she was a teenager, her adoptive father died in a car accident. In 2006, Mason lost her adoptive mother as well.
Before her Trouble activated, Jennifer worked at the Boston Globe. When The Barn started to implode, she was working in her cubicle at the Globe and suddenly began hearing strange voices in her head. Unable to make the voices stop, she went to the doctor and was diagnosed as schizophrenic and given medication which stopped the voices.
Six months later, she witnessed a news broadcast regarding the arrest of Duke Crocker and heard him shout desperately for Audrey Parker. Recognizing his voice and Parker's name from the voices she'd heard in her head, she went to the hospital and conned her way in to see him. Crocker convinced her that he could help her if she came with him to Haven, Maine, and she helped him break out of the hospital and travelled with him to find Nathan Wuornos and return to Haven.
Once in Haven, Mason moved into Parker's old apartment above The Grey Gull. After witnessing multiple Troubles and how much the town needed Parker, Mason decided to go off of her medication in hopes that with a clearer memory she would be able to help Crocker and Wuornos find Parker. Once off of her medication, she started to hear the Barn again, though she didn't realize it at first. Once she was aware of what she was hearing, Crocker helped her focus and tune into the Barn better. With his help she was able to find the door she needed to open in order to help Parker escape from the Barn.
When Parker escaped from the Barn, Mason's Trouble became dormant. Crocker asked her to stay in Haven and Mason moved from Parker's apartment to his extra room in the Cape Rouge. Mason returned to Boston to pack up her belongings and settle into Haven for good.
