Question: Wouldn't Jack have blown up with TET? How is he alive to come back at the end? Is it a different version?

Answer: It's not the same Jack. The one who died in the TET explosion was the Jack 49 clone. The clone who shows up at the end is Jack 52, who Jack 49 had encountered in the desert. Both have the same memories. Look closely, and you can see the tech clone designation numbers embossed on their jackets.

Question: Couldn't Tet just control Jack's spacecraft or bubble copter to stop him or kill him instead of sending drones after him?

Answer: Tet must not have had that capability, otherwise the drones would not have been sent.

Question: If Jack's clone's first task is to kill humans, what was Victoria's clone's task?

Answer: She oversees operations while Jack is on duty. Having a birds-eye view, she gives Jack pertinent info based on the computers, sensors, and video cameras that she monitors from above. She also reports directly to "Sally."
