Biography[]

We see for the first time the little Jedediah Junior when he helps his father to seize the camel caravan of Max Rockatansky, which shows us that he has a certain talent as an airplane pilot and that he knows probably how to handle it properly and land it.

Time passes and we see him trying to robb (again!) the truck train that Max and the children of the Lost Tribe seized, as they flee the Bartertown Security Forces with Master and the Pig killer on board.

Seeing the many vehicles on their heels, Jedediah Jr decides to take refuge in Jedediah's Hideout. He alerts his father, but Jedediah doesn't take his warnings seriously, and he finds himself face to face with Max (whose trailer he stole at the start of the film). Jedediah then finds himself forced to help them, in spite of himself, by piloting his mini-plane in order to help the children and his son to flee, while Max sacrifices himself by clearing the passage so that the plane can take off.
