Biography
Callie Jacob was born on July 11, 1997, to Colleen Jacob. Callie's biological father, Robert Quinn, was a wealthy upperclassman who had been in love with Colleen. Robert's family disapproved of their relationship and they decided to elope. However, after pressure from the Quinn's, Robert divorced Colleen and they went their separate ways. During this time, Colleen found out she was pregnant with their child but chose not to tell him. When Callie was six-months-old, Colleen married Donald Jacob, and Callie grew up believing Donald to be her biological father. Donald adopted Callie and her name was legally Callie Jacob. Donald and Colleen then had their first child together, as one whom they named Jude.
When Callie was ten, her mother and step-father, went out to dinner. Donald became intoxicated and drove while under the influence. His recklessness caused a car crash that killed Colleen. Callie struggled with deep regret on how her last conversation with her mother went, having been mad at her and refusing to kiss her goodbye before she left. After hearing about her mother's death, Callie lashed out and destroyed her bedroom. She was so upset that she blocked the incident from her memory and thought that -year-old Jude, who witnessed the event, destroyed her room.
After Colleen's death, Donald was arrested and later convicted for manslaughter. Callie and Jude were placed in the foster care system. Callie was forced to grow up to care for her younger brother. They moved in and out of many homes, some of which proved to be abusive. This also made her into a motherly figure for Jude, and as a result, she shielded him from any harm even if at the cost of her safety.
After many years in the system, the siblings were placed with the Olmstead family. The parents already had a son, Liam, who was four-years-older than Callie. Callie bonded with Liam, as he was nice and flirty to her. A romantic relationship was forbidden among foster siblings, which turned Callie away from him. However, Liam was persistent. Callie eventually gave in and began a secret relationship with him. However, late one night, he snuck into her room and they made out.
Callie didn't want to have sex, but he didn't listen and raped her. Callie was disgusted by the actions but didn't know what to do, as the home had been the best one they'd ever been in - until now. Shortly after the rape, he claimed that she was the one who came onto him and wanted a relationship, not him. Callie and Jude were quickly thrown out of the house, and Callie felt guilty about everything that happened. It wouldn't be for another few years that Callie was able to get justice by having him incarcerated him for rape.
In another home a year later, Jude tried on a dress owned by their foster father's ex-wife. The man walked in on Jude wearing it and was infuriated to the point where he began violently beating him. Callie attempted to intervene, but was kicked in the stomach and tossed aside. Refusing to watch her brother be assaulted, she took a baseball bat to their foster father's car to avert his attention from Jude to her. He called the police and she was arrested for destruction of property and put in juvie.
Released from Juvie
After saving her brother, Callie waited for the courts to decide what would happen to her. On the day of her release, she was attacked by a few girls who were jealous of her for being released. Soon after, a social worker from child protective services, Bill, contacted Lena Adams and requested she come meet the teen. He explained that he wanted to send her to Lena and her partner, Stef, as there aren't any male authority figures there, which he thought would be beneficial to Callie.
Callie moved in with the Adams Foster family and was later reunited with her younger brother, Jude. Stef and Lena decided to foster the siblings so that they would be in a safe environment until they could find a permanent home. In "Consequently", Bill told Lena and Stef that Callie and Jude never stayed at a foster home for more than six months, something which initially alarmed them. However, he insisted that it wasn't something the kids did, but rather bad things seemed to happen to them.
She developed a romance with Brandon, Stef's biological son, shortly after moving in with the Adams Foster family. Callie knew that being in a relationship with a foster sibling wasn't allowed and that she could get kicked out of the house along with Jude. She told Brandon this, and they decided not to act on their feelings. However, in "I Do", they kissed and began a relationship. They then secretly dated for a brief time. However, they broke up after they realized Callie needed a family more than a boyfriend. While it was difficult for them to move on and accept each other as siblings, they gradually learned how to do so. During this time, Jude was adopted by Stef and Lena.
Callie then met her biological father, Robert Quinn, and the two began to form a relationship. She also met her half-sister, Sophia, and the two girls seemed to form a relationship. Robert loved Callie and wanted to adopt her, something Callie fought against as she wanted to be part of the Foster family. She agreed to try and form a relationship with him and did want him in her life. However, she informed Robert that her "forever home" is with the Fosters and that they are her real family. He finally allowed the Fosters to adopt Callie in, "The End of the Beginning". He withdrew his custody suite and officially signed away his legal parental rights.
Callie's adopted
After a battle with the legal system, being placed into a group home, an investigation by the court officials, and founding Fost and Found, Callie went before an adoption judge one last time. She delivered a moving speech about foster kids' inability to make their own decisions, which moved the judge greatly. He granted her adoption and she was officially adopted by the Adams Foster family. She then legally became Callie Adams Foster.[3]
A year or so later, Callie graduated from Anchor Beach Community Charter School and decided to pursue her dream of being a lawyer and helping other foster children. She was accepted into UCSD and graduated with her BA in four years. She planned to move to Los Angeles to be a clerk for Federal Judge, Curtis Wilson. She decided to share an apartment with Mariana.
Callie Adams Foster, a recent college graduate from the UCSD law program, joined her adoptive sister Mariana in a new adventure in Los Angeles. The sisters, now roommates, moved into a communal housing project, which Callie rebuked at first. She felt betrayed by her sister who lied about the type of apartment building they would be living in. Callie also struggled to balance her life as a progressive clerk for conservative Judge Curtis Wilson and a passionate twenty-something-year-old.
She was soon faced with both moral and ethical dilemmas in the workplace. Especially so after Judge Wilson appointed her first major docket case as a judicial clerk: the Jamal Thompson case. The case itself sparked debate and conflict in both her professional and personal life, especially with her fellow housemate and activist, Malika Williams. Callie soon found herself bonding with her fellow Coterie housemates, especially her temporarily non-exclusive partner, Gael Martinez. Callie and Gael embarked on a passionate yet fleeting romance, however, their relationship was forced to take a backseat to their respective careers. In the meantime, she rekindled her old friendship with her fellow lawyer, Jamie Hunter, and increased her sisterly bond with Mariana.Personality
Callie is independent, intelligent, artsy and very loyal as well as protective over her loved ones. Throughout the show, she is shown to always put the needs of others ahead of herself, even if it costs her trouble. As a result of living and growing up in the foster system for the majority of her life, Callie is tough and sometimes closed off. However, she is also compassionate and kind at the same time.
She loves her younger brother Jude very much, always putting him ahead of herself and has even risked her life for him as seen in the Pilot episode. It is also shown that she doesn't care what happens to her, also seen in the pilot, as long as she knows that he is safe. As a result of taking care of Jude for most of her life, she has a strong tendency to sometimes act like his mother instead of his sister, much to Jude's frustration.

Then, Daphne surprises Callie by sharing that she has a two-year-old daughter that she hopes to get back from foster care one day. At the group home, Callie sneaks off to call Brandon but is caught by Cole, who demands that Callie give up the phone, but Cole’s not doing it to be mean, he’s trying to help Callie. Brandon texts Callie then receives a text back telling him things are over between them. He has no idea that Cole sent the message.
Family Day Callie and her housemates have been taking various cooking classes. So there was an arrangement of Asian cuisine and soul food waiting for the families. That was until she returns to the home. Cole had overdosed on his hormones injections. After apologizing for the text to Brandon, Callie allowed him to continue to use her phone. Cole explained that she needed those injections because she couldn’t live with her body slowing turning back into a girl. Then this happened. As Cole’s roommate, she had a responsibility towards him. The rest of the group doesn’t want her halfhearted apology. They’re at the house because it was the last place for them but no one has sympathy for Callie. They saw her family.
Everyone knows she has a place to go to while the rest of them have to fend for themselves. Rita catches Callie alone. She tried to get through to her that she couldn’t keep evading everything and everyone. Eventually, Callie had to stop running from her problems. Rita didn’t think her advice sunk in but it must have. When Cole returned, Callie finally figured out she should try listening for once instead of thinking she could solve all of her own problems. She gave Rita her cell phone. The first step into making a second chance was to admit what she was doing was wrong.
Padre The funeral is hard on Callie. It brings back old memories of her mother and how she lost her. While at the same time it appears to have the opposite effect on Jude. He called Lena “Mom” for the first time and he hardly noticed. Callie caught it though. She saw how easy Jude is fitting and in and that’s leading her to push Brandon away. For some unknown reason, Brandon though announcing his relationship with Callie at his grandfather’s funeral was a good idea. Callie advised him against it. Callie is also feeling guilty about leaving the family the way she did. Being back home has reminded her how much she misses Mariana. Callie freaks out when she was helping everyone in the kitchen.
It was because she had lost her necklace. The same one she wore everyday seeing as it used to belong to her mother. Jude told her after she began to hyperventilate that she was acting the same way she did when they learned their mom had died. Callie had destroyed her room and completely blacked it out of her memory. Jude was worried she was close to doing the same thing when Stef intervened. Stef managed to calm her. She told Callie that she didn’t need a necklace to remember. Her mother was always going to be with her and it was time Callie stopped trying to deal with these things on her own. It was good advice that extended towards the both of them. Luckily Brandon found the necklace and safely returned it to Callie. Nevertheless, it was a bittersweet moment for them. Callie does love him and she is grateful that he found her necklace but she couldn’t continue with their relationship. And to be fair Brandon saw it coming.
He realized she would have to give up their family once he saw her with his mother. It made he accept that Callie is going to need more than just him. Jude knows that he’s going to stay with the Fosters and now so does Callie. She wants to come back home.
Us Against The World Callie is returning home. She chose to go home to the Fosters and get adopted alongside Jude. Yet as her new found friends at group point out her return won’t be easy as she thinks. Mainly because Callie has to deal with Brandon on a regular basis. It’s easy to say she’s over him right now with the distance between them but living together will be a whole different story. And unlike how it would have been when she first arrived, Callie is finally able to listen to their legitimate concerns. She understands her return is going to be difficult and knows it’s still the best option for herself. She gets to go home to a family that loves and not everyone gets that chance. Daphne is also leaving the group home.
Only she’s going to live on her own and while that sounds like a nice fantasy; Callie knows she can’t pick it. Luckily her living situation improved without her even knowing. Brandon and the rest of their family held the truth from Callie up to the last minute. It seems Brandon thought it would best to live with his dad for a while. Just until Callie gets readjusted back home. He assured her that he needed the move for him and that it wasn’t her fault.
But a lot of things is starting to look like her fault. Although Callie went back with the knowledge she had to earn everyone’s respect; she didn’t count on Jude being part of that group. Jude is distant with her. She hurt him when she left him the way she did. And it’s going to take more than simply checking in like she has to do with Stef and Lena to reassure him that she’s not going to up and run away again. Callie figured out the best way to get Jude’s trust back is to celebrate his real birthday as they used.
Their mom had Jude at home and when she got around to registering him; he was given the wrong birthday. The foster system never found out and ever since he and Callie have been celebrating his birthday privately. At first, Jude was stumped over why he was getting mysterious gifts. Then he realized it was a puzzle. Apparently, Callie knows him so well that he’s on his way to forgiving without even realizing it.
Kids in the Hall Callie, on the other hand, is still proving to be a model citizen since returning. She even helps out Mariana. Last week Mariana had foolishly ditched her friend, Zach, just to spend time with the boy she had a crush on. Too bad he was a jerk then and is a jerk now. He told everyone at school about her putting her underwear in his pocket. And in his version of events, they hooked up. That’s not the truth but who’s going to believe her. Callie is keeping her friendships with Kiara and Daphne. They got close during their time together at the outreach house. And now they’ve helped her see what she couldn’t before – Callie has a talent with photography. She took a picture of Kiara and it helped her friend find a decent foster family. So Callie wants to pursue taking more pictures to help out foster children and while Lena is pleased by this; Stef is hoping she’ll make better friends from the venture.
She wasn’t feeling too comfortable finding two juvenile delinquents in her kitchen. Callie can’t make any new friends because Talya has already poisoned the water. The very same night Callie is taking pictures for the foster kids, a couple of e-readers were stolen. Callie thought Daphne had done it seeing as her friend has been struggling with independent living. And that’s why she lied to Lena by saying she didn’t give the keys to anyone. Yet she still confronted Daphne and got yelled at. Daphne swears she didn’t steal anything and if someone committed a crime then it was probably Brandon.
Escapes and Reversals Then there’s Callie and the secret she’s been sitting on. She knows that Brandon lied to her about being at the school during the e-readers heist and she’s mad at him. Callie risked a friendship over him and he shook it off like it didn’t even matter. So Callie started to look into why Brandon was a part of the theft. She saw his interactions with Vico which was unusual enough. Vico isn’t really the type of Brandon would normally be friends with but she later spied Vico making one of his transactions and decided to act. She pretended like she wanted to buy a fake ID and Vico obliged her by taking her picture. When Brandon had heard about it through Vico, he confronted Callie. She tried to tell her to stay away from that scene and she called him out on hypocrisy. She did all of this as a test to draw him out which he obviously failed. Callie knows that he’s helping Vico sell fake IDs and that they were the ones that stole the e-readers.
She tried to get the reason behind why he would do something like that and he refused to tell her the truth. But Callie doesn't have the time to grill him about it. She got called in for a family meeting with Stef, Lena, and Jude. Her foster parents wanted to inform that they were filing the adoption forms but first, they had to get the kids’ father’s to sign off on his rights. Callie was upset to learn he still had any. Stef informed them that technically going to prison doesn’t terminate parental rights. That’s why they need his signature. Jude didn’t mind that they were going to contact his dad. That’s because he thought his father was still in jail. He’s not and Callie admitted as much. She told them how she tried to contact him after she ran away only to find out that he’s been out for over a year now. Jude is angry that she kept such a secret from him. And he’s starting to get tired of her excuse about how she wanted to protect him.
Don't Let Go The episode begins with Callie paying a visit to her dad to figure out what he is going to say to Jude when he stops by to visit him. Her dad says that he is going to say that he wanted to wait to see and communicate with everyone when he was stable and was prepared to get them back. Callie is frightened by this and when she gets back to her house she asks Jude how he would feel if dad asked if he could get back custody of them. Jude responded by saying, “I don’t know, he is our dad”. This makes Callie nervous that one of them or even both of them could get hurt by having contact with their dad. At the breakfast table the next day, Jude says that he doesn’t want to see his father after all, but everyone convinces him that he might regret it later. He said he would go if Callie goes too, and she agrees. The episode ends with Callie and Jude’s dad showing up and telling them that he loves them but that he is signing away his rights. When asked why he says because it was the truthful thing to do and that he could never provide for them the way that Stef and Lena have. And this is where the episode ends with Callie and Jude being able to be officially adopted by Stef and Lena.
Metropolis The episode starts with Callie and Brandon at school in the music room. They talk about everything that has happened. With his parent’s adopting all of these children and his love for music coming back. After she leaves the music room, Callie receives a call from an old friend. Shen then turns around and there he is. Callie shows up to talk to Wyatt whom she got a job filling drinks so he could get money to get his car back. Lena then goes to Brandon and tells him to ask Callie to dance so the principal will see she is participating. The episode then swings back to Brandon and Callie who says she is tired of being judged by everyone. He agrees but it is because he is mad that she did not meet up with him the other day. They talk about being together, but she really wants a family; and, when she is adopted by Lena and Stef, technically Callie and Brandon would be brother and sister. She does not want to mess up the family dynamic by dating her foster brother.
He then tells her to tell him something to make him get over her. She tells him that when she and Wyatt ran away together, that they slept together. The nominees for Winter King and Queen are then announced. Callie wins the Winter Queen title and is forced to dance with another guy. Meanwhile, Marianna and Zac leave to go look for his mom. The principal then goes into the bathroom to find kids drinking alcohol. She asks where they got this from and everyone says that Callie gave it to them so they would vote for her. The principal then goes and accuses Callie of buying alcohol with a fake id. Back on the dance floor, Jesus gets into a fight with his tutor’s boyfriend because he thinks he is going to drink and drive. It turns out she was driving and she tells Jesus to get lost. Zach and Maria find his mom. She is outside looking at the water, but when they get to her, she doesn’t recognize either of them.
Adoption Day While Brandon is practicing his piano at Mike’s, he gets interrupted by someone knocking at the door. It’s Callie. She wants the final verdict on where they both stand; if Brandon is really and truly okay with Callie being adopted into this family. Brandon simply says he’s fine with it and that she isn’t hurting him by getting adopted. Wyatt surprises Callie with not only his surprise appearance, but with Rita and everyone else from Girls United! While much excitement is happening all throughout the lobby, lawyers pull Stef and Lena aside to have a chat with them. It is then that Stef and Lena pull Callie and Jude aside. They explain to her that there seems to be a mix-up with her original birth certificate. A different person is listed as her father, not Donald Jacob like she always thought. So unfortunately, at this time she can’t get adopted. Tears are shed between both Jude and Callie. Stef and Lena reassure Callie that just because this little hiccup occurred does not change their mind; she will be adopted by them one day. Jude cries and says he doesn’t want to get adopted with Callie. That’s when Callie takes him by the shoulder and ever so sweetly and sisterly calms him and says that he should get adopted today and that everything is going to be okay. He eventually agrees with his big sister. Getting some fresh air away from everybody, Callie bursts into tears herself. Rita later joins her to where Callie states the entire universe must be against her. That everything can go wrong always does for her. Rita immediately shoos that idea away and says that things happen, but you can’t let that stop you. Feeling a bit better, Callie goes inside to witness the adoption. Jude, Stef and Lena sign the papers and the entire Adams-Foster family (including Callie) takes a picture with a judge. They finally did it! Jude is adopted; he has a family again! Everyone goes back to the house for celebrations. While everyone is munching on cake, Callie heads outside to the patio to which Brandon joins her. She asks about the audition and Brandon replies he got it. He leaves to go and get the last of his things from Mike’s and Wyatt takes his place. He is curious because of this recent error with the adoption, will things change between Callie and Brandon. She says no and the two kiss.
Things Unknown Callie gives Jude a hug after he receives his updated birth certificate in the mail. Stef assures her that she will get adopted too. Callie goes to court with Stef and Lena hoping that she can get adopted without her birth father's permission, but the judge says that since he may not even know she exists, they need the signature from him.
Callie hears Brandon playing the piano. they talk to each other about Callie not getting adopted and Brandon not being able to play piano.
Callie has started working at 'Not A Burger Stand' with Daphne. While at work, she is telling Daphne and Wyatt about how she can't get adopted because Donald is not her birth father.

Good Trouble
Callie and her adoptive sister, Mariana, are on the highway heading for Los Angeles. They are recapping the last few years of their lives, with Callie having graduated from law school and now clerking for a federal judge. The sisters are singing and dancing in their seats, laughing as the head to their new apartment. The sisters park and begin to realize that things aren't how they expected them to be. Callie recognized The Coterie as a different kind of living arrangement, and is shocked to learn that it is a communal living apartment and that her sister lied to her - again. Once outside, their U-Haul has been towed and they have to pay a large sum of money to get it back. When they find it, they are appalled to learn that they had been robbed, and the only things left in the U-Haul were their mattresses.
From there, they head to a little thrift store to get clothes for the morning and have fun in the shop. They befriend the owner and dance with her, play with the clothes, dress-up in silly outfits, and even find some dolls that resemble them. Ultimately, they find the clothing that they need for the next day and head back to The Coterie. Back at The Coterie, Mariana falls asleep almost instantly, while Callie has more difficulty. She gets up and takes a glass of wine to the roof, where there are a pool and a nice view. She is enjoying the view when Gael Martinez exits his loft, strips down, and goes for a nighttime swim. She admires the new view and they eventually begin discussing how Callie is new to The Coterie.
They bond over art and their upbringings before Gael takes her to his loft and shows her his art. They flirt heavily and tease one another while in the loft, before eventually making out and having sex. The next morning, both sisters oversleep and have to hurry out the door to be on time. While leaving, Mariana calls out to her friend and co-worker that recommended the apartment, and Callie is shocked to see Gael. Callie plays along with Mariana introducing them and Gael rolls with it. When Gael leaves, Mariana once again expresses interest in being physical with him before they go their separate ways to work.
Once at work, Callie is introduced to her fellow clerks Rebecca and Benjamin, who seem to be friendly enough. They begin working on a case in which Callie views it as a political activist and progressive argument, while Judge Wilson does not and rules the opposite as what Callie suggested. Rebecca and Benjamin warn her about crossing him, and Rebecca observes that Callie is just making things harder on herself by clerking for a conservative judge while she is a progressive activist. Callie only nods saying that it's kind of her thing, and proceeds to write her paper from a passionate and progressive viewpoint.
Back at The Coterie, her and Mariana talk about their days and both lie about how amazing their jobs are. They then attend communal dinner with the rest of the residents and learn more about their new roommates and Callie learns about the Jamal Thomspon case from Malika. At some point in the night, Callie confronts Gael and tells him that she wants to keep what happened to them a secret because Mariana likes him. They have sex again that night, and Callie immediately expresses guilt and says that it can't happen again. That night, Callie admits to Mariana that she slept with Gael which causes a fight between them and Callie expresses that she doesn't want to live at The Coterie. Mariana states that she does and leaves the room.
While working on her summary for the latest case seemingly the next day, Callie receives a call from Mariana who is sobbing at Speckulate and says that she needs her sister. While Callie originally shoots her down and says that she is busy, Mariana continues to sob over the phone. Much to the chagrin and disapproval of her fellow clerks, Callie heads over to her sisters work to comfort her. The girls go to the roof of the building and talk about how rough things have been, and Mariana expresses that she feels alone. Callie encourages her not to give up and reminds her that they are Adams Fosters, they don't give up, they fight. She reminds her that she isn't alone and that they have each other.
Back at the courthouse, Judge Wilson informs everyone that the previous judge assigned to the Jamal Thompson case had a heart attack and that he was now taking over the case. He then calls Callie into his office to go over her report and scolds her for viewing the argument from a passionate side and not a logical one. He seemingly is angry at her, however, when she exits she regretfully informs her fellow clerks that Judge Wilson had chosen her to clerk the Jamal Thompson case. Rebecca and Benjamin congratulate her and head back to work as if nothing happened, but Callie seems rather uneasy.
At The Coterie, Mariana and Callie are having wine while dipping their feet in the water. They apologize for their actions toward one another, and Callie admits that she slept with Gael again. They look over at Gael's loft where he is beginning to undress and are shocked to see that Gael has another man over. Gael and the man begin to kiss and seem to be hooking up, and Callie guzzles the rest of her wine, while Mariana gives up her claim to him saying that her sister can have him.
Callie struggles to recover from finding the, "Coterie Bitches" group chat on Mariana's laptop. She remembers vividly the messages mocking her and shaming her, especially for being protective over her property. She is then confronted by Gael who yells at her for not telling him that Jamie bought his painting, and not telling Jamie that she helped Gael make it. Despite her objections, Gael angrily admits that he wishes he never met her and that she didn't live at The Coterie so he didn't have to look at her every day. Hurt by his words, she leaves without saying a word to him.
Callie blows off Mariana in the days to come and even throws out her tea mug so it won't be a problem again. She stops into her apartment and gets clothes for Jamie's, despite Mariana's objections that it isn't a "Raj night". Callie begins staying at Jamie's more often.
She is reminded of how huge of a sacrifice it is to take on a class-action suit by Teresa. After getting much-needed advice from Jamie, Callie tells Marcus that she can't handle the class-action suit along with her regular duties. However, when Sariya from the ACLU wants to assist with the case, even if it may set back Callie studying for the bar, Marcus has presented an opportunity Callie can’t pass up.
At the end of the day, Mariana returns and finds a letter from Callie explaining that she's decided to move out of the apartment and in with Jamie. She would be back for the rest of her things later that week, and would continue to pay the rent until the end of the lease, or until Mariana found a new roommate.

Jamie and Callie first met in "Meet the Fosters" at Eliza and Brandon's engagement party. They talked about being lawyers, with Callie finishing up her last year at UCSD and about to begin clerking while Jamie was working with a law firm. They bickered playfully over politics since Jamie is a corporate lawyer while Callie wanted to do the opposite. When Callie moved to Los Angeles, she reconnected with Jamie. They were initially friends, with him wanting more. They then entered a non-committed relationship where Callie was romantically involved with her fellow The Coterie resident, Gael Martinez. When Jamie and Gael both no longer wanted to be non-exclusive, Callie was forced to choose between the men and chose Jamie.
Their relationship only progressed until they moved in together, initially because Callie wanted to escape The Coterie, but eventually became equal renters of the apartment. They have both said I love you, and have plans to take their relationship slow. So far, their biggest obstacle has been their differing political careers and professional goals.

However, Callie was unaware of the fact that Gael was the man that Mariana was interested in until later. Callie and Gael had sex again, and then Callie tried to avoid him as much as possible.
