Dan Bucatinsky has shared a deleted scene from the 24: Legacy Finale which explores Andy’s past with Rebecca Ingram and how he was recruited to CTU. This scene was supposed to take place as the ambulance was transporting Rebecca to the hospital, but it was cut.
Show Transcript
Andy: You know when Rebecca recruited me, I was coding for this start up in Boston. I wasn’t even looking to leave. She found me. I wasn’t even unhappy or anything. I actually liked my job. But Rebecca, she said I’d be happier at CTU.
Mariana: Was she right?
Andy: Yeah, she was. That start up? Went public 18 months later. My shares would have been worth something like $20 million by now. But I never regretted coming here, not for a minute. Well, maybe a minute.
Mariana: That’s a good story.
Andy: It’s all true.

April 21, 2017 at 3:22 amMy assumption is that the writers/directors lurk on this website and gauge the reactions to certain things (e.g. the Rebecca/Tony past relationship timeline) and perhaps realized that they mucked it up and didn’t want to further the damage by expanding on it, nor wanted to re-shoot to patch the timeline so it would be consistent with Tony’s available time between Season 5 and 7 AND consistent with Tony’s Legacy remarks.
