Jack Bauer and Agent Renee Walker Will Be Lovers
For followers of Fox's 24, Jack Bauer is a whirling dervish intent on sweeping up anyone in his path. It will be no different for FBI Agent Renee Walker who will be drawn closer to her seemingly emotionally distant but intense counterpart.
While she may not yet realise it or be willing to admit it, she has fallen for him. Jack respects her, and sees her neither as inferior or as a subordinate. He gives her the choice to take action (or not) and most importantly, he indicates to her that if she chooses not to "do what is necessary", he will not think less of her.
He is the catalyst for her transformation from a by-the-book federal employee to someone more than she thought she could ever or want to be. Good or bad, she is no longer the person she was.
When someone "pushes" you to what you thought were your personal (in the case of Agent Walker, her moral) boundaries and you make the decision to go beyond those limits, you are intrinsically and emotionally bonded to that person. In these circumstances, it is difficult not to feel a powerful closeness/affection for that person.
This dynamic and obvious chemistry between the two personalities will bring them together romantically.
As for Agent Walker's boss, Larry Moss, he's a paper-pusher, a by-the-book administrator. Paper-pushers do not change the world, let alone save it. He's an emotional dead end for her.
