On the Jack Bauer article it says he was preceded by Henderson as the Special Agent in Charge of CTU Los Angeles. I don't remember this being mentioned in Day 5, but if anyone knows this, tell me.
Also, I remember during Day 1 that Jack said he always suspected George Mason of taking bribes, and later found the evidence that proved he did, but he did not turn him in. Mason's statements to his son during Day 2 about the money he had seemed to also indicate that this was true. If this was true, then was Henderson part of the group that Jack accused? If it is, we should reflect that on this page as well as Mason's article. - Xtreme680
- Wrong on both accounts. Day 5 merely stated that Henderson recruited Jack (a fact which contradicts Operation Hell Gate, unfortunately), not that he was the Special Agent in Charge.
- Mason was not one of the three agents who'd been busted for taking bribes. Seth Campbell, Teddy Hanlin's partner, was one of them. Henderson was presumably another. George Mason ran point on the bust of Philippe Darcet and when Darcet's assets were being transferred, $200,000 of it disappeared. Jack always suspected Mason was the one responsible, but didn't prove it until Day 1 when he used it to blackmail him. --Proudhug 03:06, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
Allright, I do remember Jack saying something along the lines of there being three agents, and your explanation of Mason's role in it seems to be similar to what I can remember. We can conclude that either 1. Henderson was part of a different group or 2. That the writers retconned it so that he was. I'll edit the relevant articles so that Henderson is not listed as a special agent in charge, but right now I'll hold back onto any other changes until I've rewatched the episodes. - Xtreme680
- There wasn't a retcon. The names of the other two agents weren't given. Only Seth Campbell. So it makes sense for Henderson to be one of them. --Proudhug 04:06, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
You're totally right, I'm an idiot. - Xtreme680
Although it doesn't say anything about Special Agent in Charge, Day 5 does cite Henderson as being Head of Field Ops. At the beginning of Day 5 6:00pm-7:00pm, when Logan is on the phone with Buchanan, Buchanan brings up Henderson. Novick asks about him, and Buchanan says that he was Head of Field Ops before Jack brought him down for corruption charges. -- Rohrk21
- The dossier I cited does say he was Special Agent in Charge, actually. Of course, it also says his name is William. I'll work on getting a screencap. --24.183.33.118 23:34, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
Here is a screencap of the dossier:
- Excellent, Azure! A long time coming, but thanks! How hilarious that his name is given as William. --Proudhug 01:36, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Henderson Soundbites
Can anyone provide me with links to WAV or MP3 soundbites of Henderson? I want to make a CH Windows desktop theme. Long live Chris!
Christopher Henderson: RIP?
Am I the only one who thinks Christopher Henderson may still be alive? Remember, Henderson made Jack promise to help him disappear, "the way you disappeared." Jack faked his own death, with the help of friends. It would explain the public execution, complete with a witness. It would also explain why Henderson did not realize/did not check that his weapon was empty. He was too good for that. He will also make a good ally for Jack to use later in the show, considering that Henderson was in the employ of the man we now know to be Jack's brother.
Henderson is good but in the episode the man Henderson is supposed to get information from, joseph melina,(who is just as or even more cautious than Henderson) gives him the same gun jack eventually gives to Henderson before the submarine infiltration so it seems Melina gave the empty gun to Henderson so it wasn't a setup. Also you said Henderson is to good so he would have noticed jack take the clip out of the gun since they sat next to each other on the helicopter
You're right, Christopher Henderson did ask Jack Bauer to help him disappear the same way Jack Bauer did. Also, if you look at Christopher Henderson's actions earlier during the course of the day, he almost always checks his weapon to see that it's loaded, so if he is alive, then his "public execution" must have been planned out earlier between him and Jack. --Stv naba
Jack hates him, he would never help him... --66.131.53.220 18:29, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Henderson and Stenger
Currently we don't have any info in the article about Henderson's conspiracy with Stenger. Before I add anything I need to see if I'm missing a detail. Why did he help her at all? Henderson was "a patriot" who stopped the Natalia's missiles from launching, and he was never in collusion with Bierko. It doesn't make any sense in terms of the plot why Henderson was the one who aided her with allowing Bierko to kill thousands of Americans. Anyone have any clarity on this?

[edit] Henderson and Emerson
The article states that "He planned to have one of his men, David Emerson, revive Tony and eventually turn the former CTU agent's hatred toward Jack." However, all Emerson said was that Henderson intended to use Tony Almeida as "leverage" against Jack. It is not clear how Henderson intended to do this, and given there is no evidence Henderson has any ties to David Emerson's idealogical cause (he could have used Emerson as a freelance contractor), we cannot assume Henderson planned to turn Tony against Jack (which would have been unlikely to happen in such a short period of time). He could have planned to use Almeida as leverage in some other way, such as using him as a hostage to control Jack. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kikiafterglow on 04:24, 2009 February 9
- It seems you're right, and the current wording involves a bit of assumptions. However, one thing comes to mind that made me believe Tony was chosen so he would specifically be turned against Jack (instead of being a hostage or whatever else), and that is the speech concerning why Tony was chosen in the first place. Didn't someone (Bill? Tony?) tell Jack that Tony was chosen specifically because of how easy it would be to turn him? I think this was in Jack's first visit to the undercover base of operations.
