Audrey vs. Jack remains one of TV’s most emotionally charged faceoffs
Summary
– Kim Raver calls her interrogation scene with Jack Bauer “very complicated”
– The season 5 moment tested Audrey’s loyalty and emotional limits
– Raver says she and Kiefer Sutherland still cross paths today
Kim Raver still carries the emotional scars from one of 24’s most gripping sequences.
During season 5 of the action-packed series, her character Audrey Raines found herself face-to-face with Jack Bauer in an explosive interrogation. Accused of leaking classified information, Audrey was forced to defend her loyalty to both her country and the man she loved.
Raver recalled how the scene blurred the lines between love and duty. Jack, driven by suspicion and desperation, slammed Audrey against the wall, questioning her allegiance. It wasn’t just a moment of action but a collision of trust, betrayal, and raw emotion.
She described the moment as “very complicated,” praising the writing and the required emotional depth. It wasn’t just about espionage—it was about two people caught between personal history and professional chaos.
Despite the intensity on screen, Raver shared that her relationship with Kiefer Sutherland remains strong. The two still see each other at holiday events and show years after the cameras stopped rolling.
Outside of 24, Raver continues to work in television, including directing episodes of Grey’s Anatomy. But for fans of the series, the interrogation that broke hearts and tested limits remains a defining moment.
