Canon
THE JIG IS UP

Scratch gets summoned by the Ghost Council, who state rather plainly that Scratch is at risk of being sent to the Flow of Failed Phantoms because of Brighton's rising joy numbers. However, due to Scratch filling out his scare reports the Ghost Council question if there might be a “joy agent” in Brighton, an idea that Scratch calls, “crazy”. The Ghost Council decides to summon Jinx, a well known joy hunter in the ghost world. Jinx excitedly talks to Scratch about how they'll, “get to the bottom of this whole joy thing”.

Throughout the episode, Scratch takes Jinx all over Brighton to try to distract her from Molly's "enhappification” of Brighton. First taking her to the park where she questions if Scratch has any real idea on where joy could be before Scratch tells her he's certain because it's a park and kids love swings. But then the swing set falls apart and Jinx concludes there are no traces of joy in the park. Due to the stress, Scratch partially admits that he has been neglecting his scare report duties and “fudged, a little bit”, Jinx proceeds to tease him and says that she thinks she can let it slide.

Later, Scratch shows off Brighton's many abandoned storefronts, stating that there is nothing to worry about as there is still plenty of misery. He shows this off my putting a bystanders sandwich down their pants, and Jinx agrees that there is misery, but she still senses joy somewhere. Jinx then goes on a rant about how joy is tricky, and deceitful, and that she hates tricky, deceitful liars, and asks if Scratch hates liars too in a rather aggressive manner. Scratch notices a parade led by Molly coming towards them, so he admits he hasn't been haunting Brighton's storefronts. And he starts to shove himself and Jinx through a portal, so Jinx can tell that to the Ghost Council "so they can yell at him". Jinx instead resists and says that she is the most ruthless joy hunter, and that she can't and won't go back to the ghost world until she locates the joy. Hesitantly, Scratch tells Jinx she's right, and he proceeds to drag her by the waist and tells her he knows a great place for lunch.

The two arrive at a set of dumpsters, and Jinx questions if this is really the place Scratch thinks is great for lunch. To which Scratch says that it is, and proceeds to offer her an old muffin he pulled out of the trash, when she denies, he eats it anyway stating it's her loss. Scratch then starts a conversation with Jinx, asking her if the joy in Brighton is a "false joy". Asking if it's possible the town could be so miserable, that they've gotten used to it. Jinx then questions if Scratch understands why misery is important, to which Scratch lies saying he does, but Jinx is able to see through it. She then explains that misery is necessary because the Chairman feeds off it, and that the Chairman gets angry when he doesn't receive it and that's why ghosts get sent to the Flow of Failed Phantoms.

Scratch admits that he had no idea about that, and Jinx points out it was in hist ghost orientation, Scratch repeatedly backtracks on how much he paid attention to it, before confessing he slept through it all. Scratch then awkwardly asks if this means they'll just have to keep searching for the source of the joy, to which Jinx states that they will. The episode then cuts to its song, "Killjoy". A sequence in which Jinx looks for joy with Scratch repeatedly diverts her attention to somewhere else, and despite the high stakes, Scratch still eats a snack to which Jinx questions. By the end of the song, Scratch is desperately suggesting other locations in Brighton for Jinx to search, but she brushes him off.

THE AFTERLIFE OF THE PARTY Scratch is furious once he sees Jinx at Jeffs party, she apologizes for hunting his friend. Jinx then compliments his muscles, asking if he has gone to the gym. Scratch tells Jinx about how ditched Geoffs party. The two are seen on the dance floor, dancing. She decides to create chaos and pushes Scratch close to Geoff, Jinx pretends she cares. Scratch asks her to cover him, when in reality she tries to get Geoff to notice. Scratch asks her at the end of the song montage if this counts as mean, she nods and has her fingers crossed. Scratch gets mad when realizes Jinx has plotting against his back and knew that it was Jeff and Geoffs anniversary.

Fanon
is relatively unpopular, likely due to Jinx's actions in the finale, but of course there are still people who ship this. But it is typically viewed as a crack ship. Along with the ship itself typically being viewed as a being a crack ship, its rival ship is also a crack ship, that ship being Scrood. There are currently no fan fictions for the ship, but there is plenty of fan art of it, typically of Jinx and Scratch fighting over Scratch's love for food.
