Investigative reporter Jack Deveraux was convinced there was a
connection
between Tony DiMera and Colin Murphy. He was determined to break the
story
for The Spectator.
When Jack's ex-wife and boss, Jennifer, learned that Jack was
investigating
Colin, she suspected that he was acting out of jealousy-since Colin and
Jennifer shared a past. But Jack insisted that Colin was not on the
up-and-up. After hearing Colin and Tony talk, Jennifer told Jack she
agreed
with him. Despite Jack's concerns, she decided to get close to Colin in
order to get information on him. Jack and Jennifer began working
together to
get the goods on both Tony and Colin. But despite Jennifer's concerns
about
Colin, she had a hard time shaking her feelings for him-even while
investigating him. At the same time, Colin remained determined to win
Jennifer's affections--even while he continued his affair with Nicole!
When Hope was kidnapped, Jack and Jennifer drew closer and even shared
a
kiss. But Jack was furious with Jennifer when he learned that she knew
about
the set-up to rescue Hope and had not confided in him. Even though he
didn't
want to, Jack tried to separate himself from Jennifer. Meanwhile,
Jennifer
overheard Colin admit to Tony that he was an employee of Stefano's.
Jennifer
planned to get closer to Colin so she could get the goods on him. She
vowed
to bring down Colin by wearing a wire. In addition, Jennifer apologized
to
Jack for the situation with Colin, and admitted she hoped they could
have a
future together. On Christmas, the two finally put the past behind them
and
were about to make love when they were interrupted.
Later, Jennifer heard Colin threatening to kill Jack and did the
unthinkable
in order to save her ex-husband-she slept with Colin. Jack learned the
truth
and was devastated. Before the two could discuss the situation, Colin
was
found murdered! Believing Jennifer was the culprit, Jack confessed to
the
murder!
After Bo questioned Jack and Jennifer, the charges against Jack were
dropped. Both admitted they were trying to protect each other. Later,
Jack
assured Jennifer he still loved her, despite her sleeping with Colin.
Jack
even stood by Jennifer's side as she feared that she was pregnant with
Colin's baby. Fortunately, it turned out Jennifer was not pregnant. As
a
result of Jack's devotion, Jennifer could no longer deny her feelings
for
her ex-husband. This time around, she proposed to him! Jack joyfully
accepted.
As Jack and Jennifer planned for their future as husband and wife, they
have
also embarked on a new business venture-their very own talk show, "In
the
House." In fact, business and pleasure mixed for Jack and Jennifer as
they
finally tied the knot...live on-air of their own talk show!
