prevent jquery from being loaded by steal

I am embedding JMVC v3.3 app inside my html page. The page already has jquery loaded NOT by steal but pulled in through a normal <script src=""></script> tag. When I use steal inside the app, it loads its own jquery and thus all other jquery based plugins stop working on the page outside the app.

I tried using the following prior to loading steal script:-

1. steal = {
         executed: ["jquery/jquery.js"]
   };

How to prevent steal from loading its own jquery and yet make it work with the jquery loaded outside of it?
