I was on a TV Show ['24'] where I got killed sort of unexpectedly, and where in my mind I had thought I was in good shape because I was the wife of the hero, and I was pregnant. And I ended up getting stabbed in the guts, right? So they made me a promise that it would be at least forty episodes before they would stab me in the guts and kill me in 'The River'. Call it a spoiler.
