Jerome was a middle-section survivor of Oceanic flight 815. He was seen in the background many times at the camp but he was referred to by name for the first time in the episode "S.O.S.". The role is a nonspeaking background role, but the character's name is known through the dialog of other characters.

Before the crash
The day of the flight, Jerome walked past behind Sun while she was contemplating whether or not to leave Jin. ("House of the Rising Sun") Later, he was sitting in a nearby seat at the airport when Sayid asked Shannon to watch his bag for him. ("Exodus, Part 1")
On the Island
Season 1 (Days 8-44)
When Charlie rushed to the beach to inform the survivors that Jack was caught in a cave collapse, Michael asked Scott and Steve to help him, and Jerome tagged along with them. A few days later Jerome was also present for Hurley's "Island Open" golf tournament and Jack's climactic putt. ("The Moth") ("Solitary")
Jerome was also at Boone's funeral and then witnessed the return of Locke who claimed responsibility for the accident, and was attacked by Jack. ("The Greater Good")
Before the launching of the raft, Jerome wrote a letter and gave it to Charlie to put in the message bottle. Jerome then helped along with his fellow survivors in getting the raft on the water, when Danielle Rousseau arrived at the camp to deliver a dire threat about the coming of "The Others". ("Exodus, Part 1")
Season 2 (Days 48-67)
Jerome welcomed the return of Jin and the new additions of Bernard and Libby when they arrived to the fuselage survivors camp. Weeks later Jerome stood beside Sawyer handing out DHARMA food in the forest at the supply drop. ("Collision") ("Dave")
When Bernard set out to construct his SOS sign, Jerome was speaking with Richard and Craig when he was chosen by Bernard to help. He opted not to participate in the construction of the sign. He was also one of the many people on the beach when Desmond's boat was spotted.("S.O.S.") ("Live Together, Die Alone")
Season 3 (Days 81-93)
Jerome was talking to and exchanging items with Desmond the day Nikki came to Sawyer to ask him for a gun. He later attended Nikki and Paulo's funeral. He also ate some of Sawyer's boar roast. ("Exposé") ("Left Behind").
When it was discovered that the Others were planning to raid the camp, Jerome joined his fellow survivors in preparing to leave for the radio tower. Later he is seen walking to the radio tower. ("Through the Looking Glass")
Season 4 (Day 94-97)
When the factions separate Jerome chooses to join Locke's group to the barracks. The next day he is seen walking to the barracks. ("Confirmed Dead")
When the Freighties invaded the Barracks, Locke and Ben barricade the front door with a bookcase, while Sawyer is armed with a gun outside. Sawyer walks around the barracks and comes across Doug who is shot by a member of Martin Keamy's mercenary crew. The blonde woman, who joined in Locke's team, then ran out of her house to find out what happened, but is also shot and killed before being able to get inside after Sawyer warned her. After that Jerome rushed out from his dug-out to help to the woman, but one of the soldiers shot and killed the bespectacled survivor. ("The Shape of Things to Come")
Notes
Although it may be deduced (see below) that this character's name is "Jerome", this labeling of this specific background actor (Jim Mazzarella) is probably not a decision of the writers or casting department, and therefore any narrative of this individual's biography is primarily a fan-creation.
- The name "Jerome" is mentioned in the S.O.S. transcript by Bernard on both the United States closed captioning, as well as on the DVD subtitles:
| “ | ” |
- In the scene Bernard calls out to Craig, Richard, and Jerome, the three background extras he's speaking to each respond individually to a different name. Background actors Chris Candella and Bryan Sato each respond to Craig and Richard, respectively, while the third man responds to "Jerome". This indicates that this particular extra may be deemed Jerome. This extra has slightly curly hair, glasses, and is wearing a yellow, button-up shirt.
- In the first scene where Bernard describes his sign-making plan, the same extra is visible more clearly, and is also clearly visible in "Dave" at the supply drop scene, and is visible as a middle section extra at least as far back as "Walkabout".
