I didn’t watch this show last year, but in discussions about it this year on another (read: inferior) message board a friend of mine was asking if anyone knew whether Jack had ever learned about Teri being raped last season? Nobody there seemed to know the answer, but I was confident that some 24 afficianado over here would be able to answer it for me.
So… anyone?
Oh… and in the interest of not posting just to say “thanks” later, thanks in advance to anyone who can answer this for me.
The only person alive that knows about it is Kim, so unless she told him, then he doesn’t know. I haven’t noticed anything this season that indicates that she told him or that he knows.
I concur.
I also missed season one…who raped Teri? How would Kim know and why wouldn’t she tell Jack?
I don’t think Jack knows that Teri was pregnant either.
But that may come up later. I wouldn’t be surprised if Nina brought it up.
Teri was raped by one of the initial group of terrorists. Teri gave herself up so Kim wouldn’t be raped.
One of the kidnappers raped Teri. He wanted Kim, but Teri offered herself instead, saying “I won’t fight you.” Kim knows about it because she was there for the above exchange and in the next room when the deed itself happened. It’s how Teri came to be in possession of a cell phone.
I seem to remember her telling Jack she was pregnant. In the hospital? Mayhap I’m misremembering.
I think Jack probably does know that she was pregnant. Either her ob/gyn could have told him after her death, or the doctors at the hospital who may have tried patching her up after Jack found her might have discovered it.
Whoops…almost said something about this season. I’ll shut up, Knead, out of respect for your mission.
Everyone else! DO NOT SPOIL SEASON 2 IN HERE!
Gosh, thanks Max!
The comments so far seem to be about right, it seems very doubtful that Jack knew, as Kim was the other other person who could have told Jack. I haven’t seen any of the current season (We won’t get it for a while in the UK), but nothing in the first season seemed to indicate that Jack knew.
However, in the version of 24 broadcast in the UK, near the end of the day (possibly the last episode), Teri tells Jack that she is pregnant. That said, I gather there was a version without that scene, so I don’t know if that applied to the US version.
You know, Silverfish, I think you’re right. Of course I won’t be able to verify it for myself until I go buy the first season dvd’s (or get it for Christmas…Santa…I’m looking at you…)
She kept putting it off and putting it off, but I do believe she did finally tell him which made it all the more heart wrenching when she bit the big one.
I’ve checked on the bbc 24 website (the BBC, for those who don’t know, is the British Broadcasting Corporation, they showed 24 in the UK). They have a timeline, which gives the following comment for 10.44PM:
It wasn’t the last episode, but the next to last, near the end. The BBC website is good if you want to refer back to Season one, for those who haven’t been watching season two, as it doesn’t mention it. The website is here:

If I remember correctly, she tells him as he is driving out to the docks, to give himself in to Drazen. It was a rather emotional moment.
