from daytime royalty daytimeroyaltyonline.com/topic/8597555/1/SOW: Crisis For Jack and Jennifer; November 8th issue Please link to Daytime Royalty.Jack is eager to begin his next date with Jennifer and arranges a ski outing. "It's an activity they can do together," points out Matthew Ashford. Before the couple depart for their date, they see Sami and Rafe at the Brady Pub. While Sami discusses her new job with Jennifer, Rafe questions Jack about his capture in Afghanistan. He asks if Jack has gotten any counseling to help deal with the fallout from the ordeal. "Jack doesn't really know Rafe," says Ashford. "It's basically someone Jack is getting to know and he immediately asks about Afghanistan. How does Rafe even know that Jack was in Afghanistan? He wonders who has been talking about him." Jack is also sensitive that Rafe thinks he could benefit from counseling. "Jack has been fairly frenetic and driven by certain anxieties," Ashford concedes. "But there is something more going on. Jack has been doing things that he typically does, but now people are asking, 'Are you alright?' He has more overt anxiety about things that maybe wouldn't have bothered him so much before." While Jennifer and Jack are driving to the ski resort, a snowstorm hits and they're forced to take refuge in an isolated cabin that has no electricity or heat. Melissa Reeves says, "They're basically stuck in the mountains." As the snowstorm continues, Jen comments to Jack that it looks like they'll be trapped in the cabin for awhile. Jen's words trigger a powerful response in Jack and he begins hyperventilating. "It's an inability to cope with certain stressful situations, " notes Matt. "Jack is hit by this anxiety and he doesn't want to share it with Jennifer. He wants to be cool, calm and collected, but he has no control over what's happening." Reeves teases, "A lot of stuff surfaces in the cabin for both of them that they don't expect." |

I'm going to LOVE watching this unfold.It's about time Jack suffered from PTSD with everything he's been through in his life up to now.

Hmm, could Rafe & Jack bond as friends? I like this idea! I can't wait to see how this all plays out!

This sounds really really really good. I think that's the most "reallys" I've used since the reset.
Thanks karebr.

The only thing that bugs me is that Rafe is going to be the one to suggest Jack go to councelling.Who the hell does he think he is saying that to someone he hasn't ever met?

Because Jack talks to him about it & many soldiers coming back needed counselling and they weren't held captive in a cave. I would probably say the same thing..
"wow man, that sounded like such an awful experience you went through. How are you dealing with it? Maybe you might need counselling?"

The way the article reads,or the way I interpreted it,is that Rafe is questioning Jack about Afghanistan,not that Jack brought it up himself.It's just worded kinda funny to me,that's why I made the original comment I made.It's very possible that it plays out the way you said,with the way Rafe's been acting though,I wouldn't put it past him to put his foot in his face and swallow it.

Rafe probably does start the conversation, but again I see no problem on how it progresses. Jack could always say he doesn't want to talk about it.

From the sound of it, Rafe is the one to bring up Afghanistan and it also sounds like Jack might have some paranoia issues...the whole Jack "wonders who he's been talking to" part. This should be interesting to see.

You're very welcome.I'm assuming in the last second or two they're in the cabin already,and you can see he really doesn't look good,so something's happening....

I think it will be.As good as he is with the comedic stuff,Matt's also able to more than pull off the emotional angsty stuff.I'm positive he's gonna knock this one out of the park  |
