Jason1 is the original Jason from the opening reality, whose life is stolen by Jason2 and who fights through the multiverse to return to Daniela and Charlie.
Jason2 is the alternate Jason who chose scientific ambition over family, built the Box, and then stole Jason1's life out of regret.
Charlie is Jason and Daniela's son, and his final choice of the door turns the ending into a family decision rather than Jason's attempt to control reality.
