===''Clerks II'' (2006)===
{{Main|Clerks II}}
Thirteen years after the events in ''Clerks'', and five years after the events in ''Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back'', Jay and Silent Bob are in their early 30s and have become devoutly sober [[Narcotics Anonymous|Christians]], prompted by an incident where they were arrested and forced to go to rehab.

Once out of [[drug rehabilitation|rehab]], they are clean, but continue to deal while trying to teach the word of God, in a manner similar to [[Evangelism|evangelists]]. In one scene, Jay even suggests to a couple of buyers that they should read the "Holy Fucking" Bible. The [[Quick Stop]] where Dante worked was burned in a fire due to Randal leaving the coffee pot on, and Randal and Dante moved over to the [[Mooby the Golden Calf|Mooby]]'s fast food restaurant. Jay and Silent Bob follow the two there.

At the beginning of the film, Jay expresses some disillusionment at being a drug dealer and weighs on other ideas of what to do in life. At one point during the movie, Jay, knowing boredom is the first step to relapse, dances to the song "[[Goodbye Horses]]" by [[Q Lazzarus]] after Silent Bob puts the tape in the boom box. He parodies exactly the same dance done by [[Buffalo Bill (character)|Buffalo Bill]] in ''[[The Silence of the Lambs (film)|The Silence of the Lambs]]'', complete with the "tuck", although it is alleged Jay has been doing this in real life before ''Silence of the Lambs'' was released.<ref>''Clerks 2'' DVD commentary</ref>

Near the end of the film, they are jailed with Dante, [[Elias Grover|Elias]] ([[Trevor Fehrman]]), and Randal, for a party at which a [[donkey show]] is hired to celebrate Dante moving away. Jay and Silent Bob were charged for possession of drugs, which violated their probation. They bear witness to Dante and Randal's fight in the jailhouse, but at first provide no meaningful help, with Silent Bob unable to come up with his usual wisdom and instead criticizing Jay for never contributing to a conversation. Randal wants to reopen the Quick Stop with Dante, but neither of the two has the money, so Jay and Silent Bob offer some of the ''Bluntman and Chronic'' movie royalty money under the condition that the two are allowed to loiter outside the shop and that the police cannot be called to arrest them. After the Quick Stop is reopened, Jay and Silent Bob return to where they started so many years ago, and promptly restart the "Goodbye Horses" routine.
