Was it ever revealed what Jack's missing two years of memories were from season 1? August Booth 19:34, January 18, 2014 (UTC)

No, although when he reveals his name is the "Face of Boe", it may mean that he went into the future and met the giant head... thing --Afro Circus Afro Circus Afro Polka Dot Polka Dot Polka Dot Afro! 22:10, January 18, 2014 (UTC)

Also, how did jack find out he had lost two years? Did john hart tell him?--90.203.151.133talk to me 22:34, May 24, 2014 (UTC)

I also suspect that Jack may have met his future self. But It need not have been the Face of Boe. Even meeting a future self who is immortal would probably be something the Time Agency would want him to forget. But what I really wonder about is the two years aspect. Did something happen that led Jack to pursue some lead which took more than a year to lead to himself? That sort of thing might justify a two year gap, because without erasing the initial prompt, he might well repeat himself. Is it possible that Jack met either immortal Jack, or the Face of Boe, and hung out together for an extended period? If he met the Face, it might be while before he discovers he is the Face. But the name would certainly intrigue him. Or perhaps he met immortal Jack, and was present when immortal Jack became the Face of Boe.

As for how he learned of it, he says he just woke up one day. Presumably he realized when he saw the date that he could only remember up to 2 years past. I would expect a time agent is the sort of person who notices things like dates. The Time Agency could not just send him back 2 years to fool him, because he might still have run into himself during that time.Phil Stone 23:21, June 1, 2014 (UTC)
