Revision as of 05:08, 25 December 2005 by Simon Beavis (talk | contribs)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Nina Myers is a fictional character on the television series, 24, played by Sarah Clarke.
Nina was second-in-command of the Los Angeles Counter Terrorist Unit (CTU) during the first season of the show, behind Jack Bauer, who was her former lover. She was also involved with Tony Almeida, who later became Special Agent in Charge of CTU. At the end of the first season, it was revealed that Nina, also known as Yelena, was a traitor, who had been aiding the assassination attempts on (then Senator, later President) David Palmer. After her cover was blown, Nina attempted to run from CTU, but Jack's wife Teri overheard a conversation that would have compromised her escape, so Nina killed Teri. Nina was later captured and sent to prison.
In the second season, it was discovered that Nina had information on a terrorist organisation that was planning to detonate a nuclear bomb in Los Angeles, and President Palmer agreed to release her from prison if she helped CTU locate it.
In the third season, Jack encountered Nina again in Mexico while both were attempting to buy a deadly biological weapon (although for different reasons). She was captured and taken back to CTU headquarters, where she attempted to corrupt their computer servers and escape. However, she was cornered by Jack's daughter Kim, who by this time had become a CTU agent. The standoff was interrupted when Jack shot Nina in the shoulder. Though Nina attempted to convince Jack that she was still of value alive, Jack executed her in cold blood.
Little is known about Nina's history or motives. However she is multilingual: aside from English, she is seen speaking Serbian, German and Arabic, and it is quite possible she speaks even more languages than that. Rumors say that she will be featured in 24: The Game
