FOR THOSE READER'S WHO DO NOT WATCH 24:
Here is an overview you will need for the story OR watch all 6 seasons. Season 7 doesn't start until January! If you want to watch it, stop reading this story because it contains many many many spoilers throughout season six and from the season seven promo video.
Family Tree of story:
House- Ellis-Graham-Jack
Grandfather
Meredith-Ellis' daughter
Josh- Graham's son
Kim- Jack's daughter. Terri was Jack's wife who died, and she is Kim's mother.
- - -
Ok so……
Meredith is the oldest cousin. House took care of her with help from Wilson and Cuddy. Kim was born next, and Josh later.
When Kim was 16, Terri died. Meredith was in collage. A few years later, Jack started dating Audrey Raines. Her dad is secretary of state James Heller (not that it matters, but it will). Jack was forced to fake his own death so he could escape someone who wanted him dead. Meredith was in med-school then. Someone knew Jack was still alive, so Jack had to try to stop him or her. It was President Chares Logan, but Tony Almeida, Michelle Dessler, and David Palmer were all killed.
So….Who?
Tony Almeida: Jack's friend
Michelle Dessler: Tony's wife and Jack's friend
David Palmer: Former President. Many failed assassination attempts against him.
WHY were they killed?
They all new Jack was still alive and was used as a distraction to CTU. Chloe O'Brian also knew Jack was alive. Chloe is Jack's "personal analyst." She has saved Jack's life may times.
So Now….
Jack stopped Logan, and was captured by the Chinese. Audrey went to China ALONE looking for him because nobody else did. Eighteen months after Jack's capture, Wayne Palmer (David's Brother and acting President), made a deal with terrorists and freed Jack. He was sent to the terrorists to be killed by them because they had valuable information to stop a chain of terrorist threats.
ALL YOU NED TO KNOW….
Jack escaped the terrorists, and was told Audrey was dead. However, she was not dead. She had major amnesia.
In this story:
Audrey remembers everything that happened, especially in China and after. Her father put a restraining order on Jack because "everyone you are involved with dies." Meredith was about to start her internship when Jack came back from China.
So Now….
Jack is on trial for all of the things that happened in season 6, which doesn't really matter. Audrey comes to Seattle looking for Jack because OH NO! Tony Almeida is alive.
So…I hope that helps. If you need a different explanation please let me know in your review and I will be happy to give you one!
