Thanks for the compliment! I'm glad you enjoyed the fic.
The comment was made during one of the early episodes... it was the one where Jack and Bridge got motorcycles and Sky was jealous and pouty because he was stuck with his old motorcycle and he didn't think it was fair. When Jack and Bridge saw the bikes, Jack said something along the lines of "Christmas came early!" and Bridge replied "Actually, Jack, I'm Jewish so I guess you could say Chanukah came early for me." Whether that was scripted, added in because Matt himself is proud to be Jewish and they wanted that to reflect in Bridge, or if Matt ad-libbed it in himself and they just kept it during editing, I don't know. It's a question I would ask if I ever got the chance. It's the ONLY time his Jewishness is ever mentioned on screen (hence my whole Judaism series... we're a lot more than just Chanukah!).
