There is no contest about who the most hated characters on 'Powerbook II: Ghost' is -- it is undoubtedly the sex-mad professors. But Professor Jabari is especially irritating. Not only is he plagiarizing Tariq's work breaking every ethic but he is also trying to, simultaneously, gain his trust and weasel out his secrets -- all for his own personal gain. Tariq of course is too smart to fall for his snake oil merchant charm.

In Episode 8, however, Jabari seems to have annoyed fans by being the egoistic jerk that he is. One fan commented: "Jabari really believing Tariq paper is about him #pathetic". Many fans are now baying for his blood. Several tweets expressed that the best Jabari would be a dead Jabari on the show. "I hope Jabari die next episode. TIRED OF HIM!!!" said one fan, while another predicted ominously, "I’ll say this right now...Jabari is gonna get clipped! And I’m looking forward to it."

Others took a break from the hate to analyze precisely why the character was so disliked despite the show being filled with flawed characters, including the main protagonist Tariq, who takes after his complicated father. "Jabari is going to blow the whole spot up! He’s too obsessed with figuring out whose in Carrie bed; then he dead wrong! True definition of I can do but nobody else can! He can dish it out but can’t take it!" said one fan about how his toxic, creepy behavior to his ex showed audiences the kind of man he was. 

 

However, most fans found Jabari's nosy behavior as his most irritating characteristic. This became a problem in Episode 8 after he decided to download the Course Correct app that Tariq uses to deliver drugs with course notes to students on campus. It has been a sweet deal till now with even Monet having no problems with Tariq's 'system'.

But all that might change if Jabari winds up finding out what the Course Correct app is really for. With him being close to finding out Tariq's 'secret', fans are on edge about what will happen. "Tariq's professor Jabari is closing in on Tariq and finding out what he’s up too...he’s about to find out what Course Correct really is," tweeted one fan anxiously, while another tweeted in all caps, "DAMN JABARI DOWNLOADING THE APP!!" Another user made his ire against the sleazy professor quite clear: "I hope Jabari gets popped! Nosey ass" 

The question is, does Jabari know who he is messing with, and will Tariq be the one to 'pop' him? Since the body count is getting pretty high on the show, things don't look good for Jabari.
