How to get the value out of Object[value] in javascript/jquery

I have a table 'mytable' that looks like:

 <tr>
      <td><input type="checkbox" name="check[]" value="11"></td>   
      <td>11</td>
      <td>2014-11-06 18:49:26</td>
      <td>MESSAGE</td>
      <td></td>
      <td>MATCH5</td>
      <td>NO MATCH</td>
      <td>NO MATCH</td>
 </tr>

I want to get the value of column 4 "MESSAGE" from a row if its checked. In How to get value of table cell with jquery from checkbox using absolute row number it was shown that

var ids = $('table input:checked').map(function(){
  return $(this).closest('tr').find('td:eq(3)').text();
});

returns 

Object["MESSAGE"]

How can I get just the contained text/html ?

Call get() at the end, to get an array. The values will be in that array.

var ids = $('table input:checked').map(function(){
  return $(this).closest('tr').find('td:eq(3)').text();
}).get();

Otherwise, you just have a jQuery collection pointing to a bunch of strings.
