Jacob Hunt is a dynamic protagonist whose emotional journey drives House Rules’s exploration of neurodiversity, identity, and the pursuit of justice. As a teenager with autism, Jacob’s character is defined by his unique traits and challenges, including difficulties with social interactions, adherence to routines, and intense focus on specific interests such as forensic science. Jacob’s role in the narrative is multifaceted; he represents the struggles faced by individuals with autism while also embodying resilience, determination, and self-discovery.
One of Jacob’s most prominent character traits is his unwavering passion for forensic science and crime scene investigation. His meticulous attention to detail, logical thinking, and analytical skills make him an expert on the topic, despite societal misconceptions about his capabilities due to his neurodivergence. Jacob’s role as a forensic enthusiast not only serves as a plot device—it foreshadows him becoming embroiled in an investigation in which he is the suspect—but also symbolizes his quest for understanding, truth, and justice in a world that often devalues people with autism.
