Juliet’s burial. It’s somewhat harder – her death – after there was a glimmer of hope that she might survive.
At LAX.
Jack got paged. There was a mixup with his father’s coffin. They never put it on the plane. The funeral is in two hours, and they don’t know when the coffin will arrive because they don’t know where it is.
Back on the island.
“That’s a big wall.”
They’re going down the hole that Danielle’s crew members went down. There’s the guy without the arm.
With everything lit by flashlight, it feels very much like the X-Files.
The whispers. Kate disappeared. Did the whispers sound like Jacob? It’s a crazy labyrinth. There was a giant pit… maybe Jack shouldn’t run around like that.
New guys with guns.
“Guess we found the Temple.”
Commercial break. The Temple and its guardians look very Buddhist to my husband and me. Are we going to find out what they did to young Ben that stole his innocence? Will Sayid become one of them now?
In LAX.
“Anything to declare?”
“Just a murderer.”
Kate has to go to the bathroom. She stole Jack’s pen on the plane. Can you really pick the lock on a pair of handcuffs with a pen? Mars saw the spring. Kate just gave him the head wound that killed him on the island. Nice cover story. He came in there and attacked her.
Sawyer saw Kate’s handcuffs in the elevator. Helped her get out of there. He’s a smooth con man.
Back on the island.
“Stop calling me boss. You’re not my deputy anymore.”
Sawyer wants Miles to talk to Juliet. He says she’s gone. Is he going to make something up? No. The important thing she wantedd to tell him. “It worked.”
At the Temple.
Cindy… with long hair. The guy said to shoot them… until Hurley mentioned Jacob’s name. He’s going to prove it to them by telling them to open the guitar case. It contains an ankh. A rather large one. Which actually contained a message. A list. They’re all on it. And if Sayid dies, they’re all in a lot of trouble.
In LAX.
Jin has a big bag full of money, and he doesn’t speak English. Will Sun speak up? No. She lied. Maybe she sees this as the out she didn’t take in Australia.
At the Temple.
A bubbling pool of dirty water. “It isn’t clear. What happened?” He’s putting his blood in the pool. Oh no, he’s seeing if the water will heal his cut, I think. It didn’t heal. There are risks.
“Do what you have to do.”
Bringing Sayid into the pool. Turning the hourglass. Submerging him. Sayid’s flopping around like a fish. Fighting. He stopped moving, but they wouldn’t let him up until the hourglass ran out. Laying him down prostrate. He’s dead. Will Jack beat on his chest like he did to Charlie? But when Kate stopped him this time, he listened. He didn’t keep going like he did with Charlie. He let him stay dead.
Back at LAX.
Sayid is at baggage claim looking at this picture of Nadia. Kate is trying to figure out how to get out. Frogurt stops her from getting into a cab. Mars is conscious again.
The Puppet Man from Heroes is Claire and Kate’s cab driver. Claire’s in labor?
Miles and Sawyer got jumped in the jungle. Sawyer took four of them out before they hit him with a rock.
“I don’t like the way English tastes on my tongue.”
Hurley just caused a panic telling them about Jacob’s death. They’re forming the ash circle, set off a flare.
Ben to Locke: “What are you?”
“You’re the monster.”
“Let’s not resort to namecalling.”
Locke was confused when Ben killed him. His last thought was, “I don’t understand. Isn’t that just the saddest thing you ever heard?” Smokey says the only thing admirable about Locke was the fact that he didn’t want to leave.
Smokey wants to go home. Where the heck is home? That would certainly be… disastrous.
Hurley to Sayid. “If you ever want to talk, I’m around.” But Miles is acting weird. Sayid not really dead? He says it’s nothing.
Kate’s taking care of Sawyer again. But she’s still sticking up for Jack. Sawyer won’t kill Jack because Jack deserves to suffer.
Back in LAX.
Jack’s on the phone with his mom. That wouldn’t be a fun phone call. Locke lost his bag. Jack lost his father. Lost and found. Huh.
Weird seeing Locke without his scar. “They didn’t lose your father. They just lost his body… Either way, your story beats the hell out of mine.”
Jack tells Locke that nothing is irreversible, offers him a consult about his spine. Friends in Los Angeles? Weird.
Back on the island.
Richard sees the fireworks. He knows what it means, and so do all of Ilana’s people. “Don’t shoot him! Don’t shoot him!”
“Good to see you out of those chains.” Richard was a slave aboard the Black Rock? Smokey has a limp Richard slung over his back. Focus on Locke’s dead body…
Switch to Sayid’s dead body.
The Others have something to say to Jack privately, and they’ll drag him out if need be.
Sayid just sat up… and didn’t sound like himself.
Oh boy.
