Jack hasn't left his room much in the couple days since he woke up outside, with no memory of the few days before that.  No memory for kidnapping someone, of fighting Teja.

When he has gone downstairs, he definitely hasn't gone anywhere near the woods.

He still has no memory of anything he did while under that spell, and the thought that something took him over, that he has no memory of it, unnerves him like nothing else has in years.

He needs to get out of here, but the door back to his world is locked, and so he stays mostly in his room, dreading every time he falls asleep and the nightmares start again.

Word gets around, eventually, about things that happen in Milliways - sometimes it takes a few days for the information to make it to the 'right' people, but it'll usually get there.

When Carl hears vaguely of what happened out in the woods and the abandoned, ruined hospital, it takes most of his willpower to keep from bolting straight upstairs to Jack's room and breaking down the door. As it is, he hurries down the hall and finds the right number, and knocks in a familiar pattern that Jack should recognize as an old 'code' of theirs.

He hopes Jack is still in the bar and hasn't gone back to his world yet...
