Simmons is charred in the electromagnetic device, Widmore doesn't care

After Desmond attacks Widmore, he insists that Zoe start a test, even though she says it's not ready. Jin follows her to the Hydra Station's generator room, passing a makeshift wooden box connected to some heavy duty cables.

Once they're in the generator room, Seamus and many others panic as they prepare to set up the test a day ahead of schedule. Seamus says they need to get a functioning E.M. field. When the generator is turned on, it fails. Seamus sends a man named Simmons outside to the box to check the contacts on the solenoids.

Seamus turns to a white rabbit in a cage that is named Angstrom and tells it that it will be going into the box next. Anders Jonas Ångström was a Swedish physicist who studied terrestial magnetism, light and optical phenomena.

One of the technicians discovers it's a bad breaker and throws the switch as Simmons is inside the box examining the coils. The solenoids emit a bright light and Simmons is tossed across the box. The cameras go out and then the system is powered down. when Jin, Seamus and Zoe arrive at the box, they see the charred remains of Simmons' body.

Charles Widmore comes to the box and is unfazed by Simmons' body. Desmond is brought to the entrance and looks terrified of what could be coming next.

Young Miles hears and finds dead man in an apartment

The episodes opens with a microwave showing the time 3:16, the same number as the Ajira flight. Miles' mother Lara is being shown an apartment by a man named Trevor. A young Miles comes to the door and asks his mom for a quarter for the vending machine. Trevor is hesitant to rent the apartment to Lara because she has a child, but Lara tells him that Miles is very quiet. Lara gives Miles a quarter and he heads out into the courtyard.

As Miles approaches the vending machine, he slows down and sees a man lying dead on a floor. He looks towards apartment #4 (one of the numbers) and goes to the door and places his hand on it. He looks down at a rabbit statue (hello white rabbit reference) and looks under it to find a key to the door. He opens the door and looks stunned.

Miles yells for his mom and she and Trevor head towards the apartment. When they enter, Miles is standing at the far side of the room. The same body that Miles saw in his head is lying on the floor. Trevor says the man's name is Mr. Vonner. Lara asks Miles what he is doing in there. Miles says "He was all alone. He's scared. His chest hurt. He kept calling out for Kimberly." Trevor says Kimberly was Mr. Vonner's wife who died last year. He asks Miles how he knows that. Miles says "I heard him. He's still talking right now." Lara says that he's dead. Miles starts screaming he can hear him and covers his ears.

So Miles' ability has been present since an early age. Why does he have this ability though? Was it caused by the island?

Geronimo Jackson - Dharma Lady - Single

The song is pretty groovy and there's a fair chance we will hear it in the next episode "Namaste."

In the album art, you can see some references to the show. The white rabbit and orchids in the eyes. It's an fun little piece. Do you see any other hidden items?

Jack goes to see his grandfather Ray Shephard, gets Christian's shoes

Jack goes to a retirement home and talks to Mr. Dorsey about his grandfather, Ray Shephard. It seems that Ray has made numerous attempts to escape from the home and is at risk of getting kicked out. Jack finds Ray watching a magic show, which incidentally features a white rabbit, an animal we've seen many times before on the island.

Jack and Ray go to Ray's room where there is a suitcase sitting on the bed. Jack asks where the bus Ray was on was headed, but all Ray says is "Any where it goes is somewhere better than here." Jack goes to help Ray unpack and finds a pair of Christian's shoes in the suitcase. It seems that Ray accidentally packed the shoes when attempting to quickly escape the home. Jack takes the shoes.

Ray was Christian's father who gave him the watch which Christian passes on to Jack in the mobisode "The Watch." Ray is also Claire's grandfather and Aaron's great-grandfather.

It seems that it is fate or possibly the power of the island that Jack's phone rings right before he takes a drink. And then Ray just happens to have Christian's shoes when Jack is supposed to give Locke something belonging to Christian. Things seemed to fall into place quite easily for Jack to push him even further towards faith.

Claire visits Kate with a warning in a dream

In the future, Kate wakes up in the middle of the night and looks down the hall outside her bedroom just as the phone rings. A backwards voice says "The island needs you. You have to go back before it's too late." She then hears a door open and runs to grab a gun out of the armoire. She rushes down to Aaron's room to find Claire by Aaron's bed. Kate is obviously freaked out as Claire tells her "Don't bring him back Kate. Don't you dare bring him back!." Kate then springs up in her bed with sweat dripping down her face. The phone call and Claire's appearance was a dream. Kate rushes down the hall to find Aaron asleep in his room alone. She hold's Aaron's hand while he's sleeping and tells him "I'm sorry" twice while crying.

Does Claire's appearance in the dream mean that she's dead or does she does she now have a closer communion with the island or something totally different? Does she not want Kate to take Aaron back because of the bad things that have happened or for some other reason? Questions, questions, questions.

On the door of Aaron's room, there's a painting of the white rabbit from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. This is one of many references to the book in Lost. I also grabbed what appears to be a picture of a child on a bike, presumably Aaron, that was on top of a chest of drawers (the photo is hard to make out).
