Character History
Season One
For an episode-by-episode summary, see Sandra Bennet: Season One History.
Mrs. Bennet is protective of Claire: She tries to persuade her husband not to give in to her daughter's request to see her birth parents; when Claire needs stitches for her cut hand, it is Sandra who accompanies her to the hospital. Also, when Claire ends up in a car accident, Mrs. Bennet is first to arrive at the emergency room.
When Sandra Bennet is unable to stop her husband from tracking down Claire's supposed birth parents, Mrs. Bennet is surprised not that her husband disregarded her request, but that he was able to find them so quickly. Mrs. Bennet notes that Claire was thought to have a congenital disorder when she was younger, and that Mr. Bennet was unable to locate them then to see if they could help. Mr. Bennet keeps Sandra unaware of incidents involving his other work by using the Haitian to repeatedly erase her memory, but fails to help her when she suffers a brain hemorrhage. Mrs. Bennet learns the truth about Mr. Bennet's work and her daughter's special ability when Ted Sprague and Matt Parkman hold her hostage and burn down their home. However, when the situation is resolved, Mrs. Bennet appears to forgive her husband and agrees to covertly work with him.
