As Jones explained to Page Six, she was approached at her Baptist church by the Borat producers, who she claims told her she would be featured in a documentary about an underage girl who was being groomed by her father to marry an older rich man. She agreed to be the babysitter for Borat's teen daughter "Tutar" — actually a 24-year-old actress named Maria Bakalova. The camera captures her shocked reaction as "Borat" uses a clicker to make "Tutar" obey commands, produces a dog dish for her water, and tells Jones, "The strings in her brain might break if you try to teach her" (you can view the preview here).

Thinking she was actually helping a sex-trafficking victim, Jones tried to advise Bakalova's character not to listen to her "liar" father, who supposedly wanted her to get plastic surgery before her arranged marriage. The movie also shows her confronting Borat (see it here) and convincing him to change his mind about his daughter's fate. "You find your baby, and you tell her she don't have to do that!" she says.
