Day 5

Eighteen months later, during season 5, Audrey is still working for the Defense Department. She was sent back to CTU as a DOD liaison to aid in their investigation into the assassination of former U.S. President David Palmer. When Audrey learns that Jack is still alive, it is evident that she still has feelings for him.

Later on, she was implicated in the ongoing terrorist attacks by Collette Stenger, a terrorist collaborator, who said that Audrey supplied her with building schematics to sell to Vladimir Bierko. Karen suggested that they use torture. She was tortured for a while until the proper evidence was found proved that she was innocent. Jack soon cleared her of wrongdoing - Christopher Henderson had ordered that Audrey's name be intentionally leaked to CTU in order to throw Jack Bauer off the trail - but not before being subjected to a medical interrogation involving Sodium Pentothal, the same drug used to torture Henderson and murder Tony Almeida. Bauer helped to clear Audrey of any suspicion. She was not immediately put back to work, in order to recover from the effects of the torturing chemical.

Once Audrey was reinstated, Homeland Security agents Karen Hayes and Miles Papazian acted on their orders to absorb CTU. Because of her DOD ties, Audrey was unaffected. However, Miles attempted to force her to sign a confession blaming Bill Buchanan for CTU's failings. Audrey initially refused, but Jack told her of the White House's connection to Henderson, and that she and Chloe O'Brian were the only ones he could trust. In order to keep Chloe at her position, she agreed to sign the confession. Audrey then left CTU, but Homeland Security attempted to track her so that she could lead them to Jack, whom President Logan had now ordered to be arrested for David Palmer's murder. With Chloe's help, Audrey removed a tracking device from her car and escaped satellite detection. She called her father on his private jet and told him that it was urgent she speak to him personally. Jack contacted her shortly after recovering evidence implicating Logan, and she told him to meet Heller at Van Nuys Airport to hand off the evidence to him.

After giving the tape to one of his guards, Secretary Heller had Jack and Audrey detained by his guards while he went off to confront Logan. Jack escaped and managed to recover the tape, but Henderson and his men arrived at the airport, taking Audrey hostage. In an effort to get Jack to hand over the recording, Henderson cut the brachial artery in Audrey's left arm, which would have led to her death in three minutes. Before she bled to death, Jack handed over the tape. After Henderson escaped, Jack put a tourniquet on her arm, saving her life. When Jack later apprehended Henderson (with Audrey at his side), Henderson says that he has his men on standby orders to kill James Heller if he does not contact them every fifteen minutes. Jack informs Heller about the situation, but Heller asks Jack to tell his daughter that he loves her, raising a red flag. When Jack asks over the phone with Chloe O'Brian to see if Heller had driven his car off the road from her satellite visual, it is confirmed that he did. Audrey went into a breakdown of grief, insisting that Jack should shoot Henderson if he would not give Jack the incriminating recording. It is later learned that Henderson had given the recording to another person. Jack claimed he had to stay and wait until Curtis Manning and his team could collect Henderson, but Audrey refutes that if the recording is not recovered, then her father would have died for nothing.

Jack left Audrey alone with the recording, and Henderson's men eventually pinpoint their boss' location, pressuring Audrey to flee the scene. She attempted to assassinate Henderson before his men arrived, but her morals proved otherwise. Audrey was rescued by Curtis Manning and his tactical team as soon as Henderson ordered his men to close in on her. Audrey later discovers at CTU from Curtis that her father survived going over the cliff, but remains in critical condition.


Audrey remains at CTU to aid Jack while he attempts to stop Bierko from firing missiles from a Russian submarine.


At the end of the day, with the crisis seemingly over, she reunites with Jack and the two share a passionate kiss. Jack is notified by a Federal agent that his daughter Kim is calling him. Jack leaves Audrey to take the call. Several minutes later, Audrey goes to check on Jack and is horrified to find him missing. She is unaware that he has been abducted by the Chinese officials who had somehow learned that he was still alive.


Day 6

When Jack asked about Audrey upon his return to Los Angeles, Bill Buchanan replied that she does not know he is back yet. Jack requested that he keep it that way. Later, when Jack tells Marilyn Bauer of his previous relationship with Audrey, it was revealed to Jack that she had been killed in a car accident in China. When confronting Chloe O'Brian, Jack found out it was Audrey who discovered that the Chinese government had kidnapped him and had been working through diplomatic back channels to secure Jack's release.

Jack is stunned to hear Audrey's voice on the phone, but she is cut off by Cheng Zhi, the Director of Security for the Consulate General of the People's Republic of China in Los Angeles.

Jack, not telling anyone that he had been contacted by the Chinese and Audrey, calls Cheng back and is told that a component from the nukes will have to be exchanged for the release of Audrey. Bauer agrees and requests help from Chloe O'Brian to get the plans for the chip. Morris O'Brian catches Chloe accessing his files, and persuades her to tell Buchanan. Buchanan has Jack arrested, but grants his wish to contact President Wayne Palmer. Palmer agrees to the rescue mission, guaranteed by Jack that he "has his word." Later in the episode, Palmer collapses from his previous head injury and Vice President Noah Daniels takes power. His first act is to shut down Bauer's mission. Jack realizes what is going on, and holds Mike Doyle at gunpoint, forcing him to exit the vehicle they were taking to Audrey's destination. When Jack forces Cheng to change the meeting's position to avoid capture, he is followed by Doyle, who steals a vehicle from a local civilian. After chasing him to an abandoned motel, he proceeds to start a gunfight after calling more agents and helicopters. Cheng narrowly escapes in a Hummer and has his men shoot down a helicopter, with the component still in his possession, and Audrey in CTU's safe keeping. When Jack is arrested for his actions, he turns to see Audrey be taken away by Doyle's fellow CTU agents and discovers, to his horror that Audrey has been severely traumatized by her time in captivity.

Audrey and Jack are taken back to CTU separately, with Audrey sent to CTU's medlab. A medical specialist is called in to examine the catatonic Audrey, determining that Audrey had been systematically tortured and injected with mind damaging chemicals by the Chinese while imprisoned. To try and wake Audrey from her catatonic state, the psychologist brought in to diagnose and treat her condition prepares a potentially lethal treatment which involved injecting Audrey with more chemicals to "shock" Audrey awake. Meanwhile, Jack begged Doyle to let him speak with Audrey, feeling that he could reach Audrey due to the love they once shared. Doyle talks to the psychologist in the clinic about Jack's request, who refuses to allow Jack near Audrey. Nadia Yassir, the acting Director of CTU, backs the psychologist's decision, in part because of the psychologist pulling rank on her regarding having full control over Audrey.

Doyle returned to holding and arranges for Jack to escape custody. Jack went to the clinic and stopped the doctor just as he was about to begin injecting Audrey. Taking Audrey to CTU's basement in a frantic attempt to escape, Jack then tried to get Audrey to wake up and remember where she had been held by the Chinese when she was returned to the states. Nadia, the doctor, Doyle, and two security personel arrived, but just as they were about to take Jack into custody, Audrey uttered the word "Bloomfield". Bloomfield turned out to be the name of a copper company, and after CTU forensics found oxidized copper particles on Audrey's clothing, it is believed that this is where Cheng was holding her and that the location might be Cheng's base of operations. Jack and Audrey were taken back to holding and the clinic, respectively, right after Nadia promised Jack she would not let the doctor touch Audrey. Minutes later James Heller arrived, to take Audrey home with him so she can recover, and then warned Jack never to go near her again. Nadia Yassir later told Jack that Heller has moved Audrey to a civilian hospital, outside of CTU. James Heller is a fictional character from the TV series 24, played by William Devane. ...

He then leaves the house and the season ends with a silent clock honoring Jack's sacrifice. This article or section does not cite any references or sources. ...


24: The Movie

According to the official 24 magazine, Audrey will appear in the upcoming 24 Movie. If true, Jack and Audrey are obviously not done with each other. James Heller wants Jack to stay away from his daughter after her torture in China. It may be a possibility that the 24 Movie is set sometime before Day 6, such as between Days 3 and 4, or between 4 and 5, when both Chloe (also confirmed to be in the movie) and Audrey could be involved.
