Cati

This is a thread to discuss all the unfortunate events that befell this show's characters, debate which particular experiences were most traumatizing, and decide which character had the worst day overall.

Some possible candidates for discussion:
Day 1: Teri, Kim, Jack, Rick, Palmer
Day 2: Kate, Jack, Kim, Palmer, Mason, Lynne, Miguel
Day 3: Gael, Chase, Palmer, Michelle, Tony, Chappelle, Jack
Day 4: Paul, Behrooz, Sarah, Audrey, Driscoll, Jack

Jack's experiences in Day 1 vs. Day 2 vs. Day 3 vs. Day 4

What are your ideas for ruining Jack's fifth day?

etc...

I think Jack had it the worst every day.

This is a great idea Cati. I'm off out now..but I'll be back later to discuss my thoughts.

I vote for Day 1 Jack.

After buying the DVD and watching season 1, I was tired!! Really. I felt for Jack because it seemed as if it was non stop for him from episode 1 to 24. Everything that happened in season was was connected to the central plot in one way or another and it seemed as if everything was connected to Jack in some way or another.

Cati

I'm not sure about rank yet but Behrooz definitely had a very rough day:
- Mom poisons his girlfriend
- Dad orders him to dispose of girlfriend's body
- finds out Dad wants him dead
- Mom is wounded
- Dad takes Behrooz hostage
- interrogation
- handed over to bad guys who perform surgery on his neck with Behrooz conscious/no anaesthesia
- finds out his Mom was killed (deleted scene)

And he's only 16!

Thats so true. Poor Behrooz had on hell of a day. And we never found out what happened to him

Lewisa

He will probably have a crappy day 5 as well.

groovyk1

If he comes back for season 5 I'm sure it will be crappy...poor guy!

jthorton17

Yeah agreed. Let's hope Palmer is out of the picture now, I don't know if he can handle any more trouble. He has had 4 days that just dumped on his whole life. He came out with good marks, but come on, those were rough days

groovyk1

I think that Palmer has had a terrible time of it...especially when it came to his family. And then when he came back and helped Logan out. Boy has he had his fair share.

Teri had the worst day ever

Her daughter left the house
She went searching for her
Only to get with this person responsible for this, who she thought was Alan York
She try to escape, only to get captured again
She get reunited with her daughter
Then she's forced to sleep with a guy to protect her daughter, so she's raped which is mentioned later.
She then kills a guy
She get in a car crash, she think Kim is dead
She looses her memory
She find out she's pregnant
Then dies at the end of the day.

The craziest days ever, I think I got everything.

Logan

Worst Day WAS TONY

End of season 4 he reunites with michele profess there love for each other , Start of season 5 both are not working for Govt. private contractors , He stays in house as michelle walks out of the house door forever .

The car blows up Tony sees his wife lifeless dead on his lawn .

He wakes up in CTU not knowing what has happened to michelle nobody will tell him. He logs onto the system to see her death pic and she is listed as deceased .

Jack and Dr try and calm him down .

He finds Henderson in the same icu unit goes to kill him but hesitates and jabbed in the heart "Dies" in Jacks arm

After the season we find out he is alive 2 years later and out for revenge

So tony had a bad day

eternalfate

Tony, of course he had a bad day.

Logan

Hell JACK always has a bad day 7 of them

eternalfate

I think Jack will always be number 1 with the longest day, since he had so many
