Desmond is revealed to be the package, Sayid sees him from water

At Locke's camp, Sawyer reveals to Kate that he is worried because he's depending on the idea that Charles Widmore is going to kill Locke. At that moment Locke strolls back into camp. He questions where Jin and Sayid are, and Locke indicates that Sayid is still on Hydra Island to discover what Widmore is hiding on the submarine.

We then see Sayid emerge from the water not too far from where the submarine is docked. Zoe and Seamus can be seen removing a drugged-up Desmond from the submarine. They drop him on the dock where Desmond comes face-to-face with Sayid. Desmond looks confused and disoriented as Zoe and Seamus pick him up and take him towards land.

Sun puts her trust in Jack, communicates by writing

Near the beach camp, Jack approaches Sun who is sitting alone next to a fire on the beach. Jack hands her a notepad, telling her that she might be able to write in English even though she can't speak. It turns out he was right.  Jack says that he went back to her garden to see if Locke was there, which he wasn't, but he did find a stubborn tomato that apparently didn't know it was supposed to die.

Using the notepad, Sun apologizes and tells Jack that Locke said he has Jin. She says that she didn't go with Locke because she doesn't trust him. She says that she does trust Jack, who says that if she goes with them, he promises that he'll her and Jin on the plane and get them off the island.

So it seems that Jack is either lying to Sun, or he's not onboard with Richard's destroying the plane plan. Either way, the conflict should get interesting.

Jin shoots Mikhail in the eye + Sun is shot & pregnant + Sayid half-helps Jin escape the freezer

At Keamy's restaurant, Jin hears Sayid shooting Keamy and his men. Sayid enters starts to leave him there because Jin can't explain who he is. Jin begs for him to free him by repeating the word "free." Sayid puts the cutter from shelf in Jin's hands and tells him "Good luck," leaving Jin to free himself.

Mikhail arrives at the restaurant with Sun and finds the bodies on the kitchen floor. He doesn't realize that Jin is playing possum (pretending to be dead) on the floor. When Mikhail leans down to Keamy who is not dead, Jin stands and holds a gun to Mikhail's head.

Jin tells Sun to move back. Mikhail then attacks Jin and two wild shots are fired during the struggle. Mikhail breaks free and grabs a knife, but Jin shoots him in the eye, the same eye he was missing when he was on the island.

Jin then realizes that Sun has been shot in the abdomen. As he starts to carry her to get help, Sun reveals that she is pregnant. Could this be baby Ji Yeon and if so, will she survive this incident? Also, if the baby is Jin's, how is it that he's not infertile since he hasn't been to the island?

Jin sees photos of Ji Yeon for the first time

At the building housing Room 23 on Hydra Island, Charles Widmore admonishes Zoe for not following the timeline of their plan and taking Jin too soon. She replies that she should have put a mercenary in charge then instead of a geophysicist. He then asks her to go get "the package" from the submarine and take it to the infirmary.

Widmore apologizes to Jin for taking him from the other island. He then gives Jin a digital camera that he says they found on the Ajira plane in Sun's luggage. Jin looks through the pictures on the camera which are of his daughter Ji Yeon with Sun. He has never seen his daughter before this moment, so he's obviously quite emotional. Widmore tells Jin that he has a daughter to and he knows what it's like to be kept apart from her.

Widmore explains to Jin that if the thing that looks like John Locke is allowed to leave the island, that everyone that they care about will cease to be. He asks Jin to come with him so he can show him "the package," which is a who, not a thing.

Mr. Paik emptied Sun's account, wants Keamy to kill Jin

At the bank, Ms. Kendall, the bank employee, informs Mikhail and Sun that Mr. Paik emptied Sun's account into another one of his own accounts. When Sun asks why her father would do this, Mikhail implies that she should know why.

At the restaurant, Omar bangs Jin's head against the door as he's leading him into the freezer. Keamy cleans up the cut and tells Omar to go get the "Arab guy," meaning Sayid.

Keamy explains to Jin that he's taping him to the chair in case he finds out that Keamy was hired by Mr. Paik to kill Jin. He says that Paik wanted him dead because he didn't keep his hands off of Sun. Jin doesn't understand a word he says and actually thanks him once he's done taping him up. Keamy tells him that some people are just not meant to be together.

So it's clear in the sideways stories that Mr. Paik is still a bastard, but now wants Jin dead. So Jin and Sun are not fairing well in this timeline either.

Hurley brings Richard back to camp, Sun doesn't like Richard's plan

Sun returns to camp and Jack examines. He believes she may have aphasia which affects the language center of the brain. Ilana then smiles when she see Richard and Hurley return to the camp.

Richard tells everyone to pack up because they need to go to Hydra island and destroy the Ajira plane so Locke can't leave the island. Sun fervently objects to the plan of destroying the plane since she wants to leave the island with Jin, but no one can understand he impassioned rant since it's in Korean. She angrily storms off.

So is the loss of the English language really being caused by aphasia, or is it possible, as some have theorized, that Sun may have partially slipped into a time where she didn't speak English (like the sideways timeline)?

Locke & Widmore face off at the sonic fence on Hydra Island

Locke reaches Hydra Island alone in a canoe and immediately sees the portable sonic fence set up all the way down the beach. Seamus and other armed members of Widmore's group take shots and Locke and tell him not to move. Locke says that he comes in peace.

They walk up the beach towards the Ajira plane with Locke staying on the ocean side of the fence. Charles Widmore emerges and Locke knows who he is. Widmore reveals that he knows that Locke is obviously not really Locke. He says other than that, all he knows is "myth, ghost stories, and jungle noises." Locke points out that Widmore knows more that he's letting on since he knew to put up the sonic fence pylons.

Widmore denies that he took Jin, causing Locke to repeat Widmore's words from season 5. Locke says "A wise man once said that war was coming to this island, I think it just got here."

So how much does Widmore actually know about the black smoke/Man in Black/Locke? Clearly he knows more than he's letting on, but how much is that? Something tells me this war is going to have a few casualties.

Sun looks at herself in mirror, Keamy takes her & Jin to Mikhail

At the hotel room, Jin and Sun panic when there is a knock at the door. Jin hides in the bathroom and on her way to the door, Sun stops at the mirror and gives herself one of those knowing looks like she may remember something from the original timeline.

Keamy enters the room and Sun gives him the watch, but he wants his money. Omar comes to the door and tells Keamy that Jin wasn't in his room. Keamy notices two champagne glasses in the room and knows that Jin is there. Omar finds Jin in the bathroom. Keamy tells Omar to get him Mikhail since he can speak Korean (we haven't seen Mikhail since the season 3 finale "Through the Look Glass").

Later, Mikhail translates for Jin and Sun who tells them what happened to the money at customs. Sun offers to go to the bank and get the money for Keamy. Mikhail goes with Sun to the bank while Keamy plans to take Jin to the restaurant. Jin begs him not to tell Mr. Paik about his relationship with Sun, and Keamy tells him that he'll keep the secret (we later learn that Mr. Paik already knows).

You'll notice that in this timeline, Mikhail has both of his eyes, so that's a plus for him at the moment.

Locke says that Claire & Kate are not candidates, the smoke can't cross water

At the camp, Locke asks Sayid if he can swim and tells him to wrap a gun in plastic.

Locke asks Claire what is wrong because she is nervously watching them. She asks if her name is on the wall of the cave, but Locke says it's not, but says that he does need her. He tells her that Kate's name is not on the wall anymore, but he needs Kate to convince the three other people he needs to leave the island. He says that once Kate fulfills her purposes, then "whatever happens, happens," implying that Claire can do what she wants with her.

As Sayid and Locke prepare to leave for Hydra island, Sawyer questions them, and asks why Locke can't just turn into smoke and fly to other island. Locke says that if he could do that, he wouldn't be on the island. He says that he's going to Hydra island to get Jin back.

Jin wakes up in Room 23, Zoe wants his help with Dharma maps

Jin wakes up to find himself in the infamous Room 23 (where Karl was being brainwashed in season 3). He flips a switch on the wall which kills the lights and activates the video featuring "We are the cause of our own suffering" and other trippy images and phrases.

When he turns it off, he turns to find Zoe has entered the room. She tells him that Room 23 is where the Dharma Initiative performed subliminal message experiments. Jin tries to leave, but Zoe shocks him with a taser.

Once Jin is sitting on the floor, unable to properly move, Zoe pulls out an old Dharma Initiative map that identified pockets of electromagnetism on the island. She says she believes the maps are signed with the name Jin Soo-Kwon. Instead of confirming or denying it, Jin demands to see Charles Widmore. Zoe says that Widmore wants to see him too.

So what exactly is Charles Widmore planning? What is Zoe, a geophysicist, planning for use the pockets of electromagnetism on the island for?

Locke returns to camp to find everyone unconscious

Locke returns to his camp to find everyone unconscious. He looks panicked as he walks through the bodies strewn about. He finds Sayid, wakes him up and asked what happened. Sayid said they were attacked and he does not know by who. Locke is really panicked now and asks where Jin is.

I think this is the first time we've really seen smoke monster Locke appear scared. With Jin missing, is his grand plan unraveling?

Sun runs away from Locke & hits head, loses ability to speak English

At her garden, Sun cuts her hand and is then startled by Locke. He tells her that he found Jin like he promised and has him back at his camp. She mentions that he killed everyone at the temple, which he once again defends by saying he gave them a choice to leave and they were confused. Suddenly, Sun makes a break for it and Locke chases her through the jungle until she hits her head on a tree branch and is knocked out.

Later, Ben finds Sun unconscious under the tree and asks her what happened. Sun can only speak Korean, but does manage to tell him that Locke did this to her.

It's very interesting to see Sun choose not to trust Locke over being reunited with Jin, considering that's is her only real goal. Her distrust of Locke is so deep, that she refuses his offer. This seems to possibly indicate another white rock for Jacob's scale since she chose to give into Locke's temptation.

Jin and Sun are secret lovers in flash sideways

In the sideways, Jin comes to Sun's room at the hotel to tell her he's going to take the watch to the restaurant. Both Jin and sun seem paranoid that someone might see them, so she invites him inside.

Once they're inside, Jin says that she is just there for a shopping trip. In the opposite of the buttoning of the sweater scene, Sun unbutton's her top button, then unbuttons the rest one by one until her sweater is off. Jin and Sun kiss and it cuts away.

The question we may never get about the flash sideways stories is what exactly changed in the past to make things turn out the way they did here. Since Sun and Jin's relationship is a secret and they're not married, it's likely that she never had an affair with Jae Lee.

Sun is angry about waiting around, goes to her garden

At the beach camp, Ilana is passing the time by cleaning her gun as Ben tries to convince her that Richard does not have the answer to their problems. Ilana says that Hurley will bring him back and they should wait. Sun gets frustrated by the conversation and storms off after jamming a knife into the table.

Sun goes to her garden which we haven't seen since the season 3 episode "D.O.C." Jack follows her out there and mentions that it seems like she first planted the garden a hundred years ago. Jack then proceeds to tell her about the lighthouse and mentions the Richard and the candidates and Sun doesn't care about any of it. Jack tells her that they're on the island for a reason, but again, Sun isn't having any of it.

It's interesting to continue to see Jack as the man of faith, trying to convince Sun that they are destined for something bigger than themselves. It certainly seems like he's taken the full leap at this point, but that was apparent during the dynamite scene of "Dr. Linus."

Widmore's team knocks out the camp, takes Jin + Sayid can't feel anything

Locke tells Sayid that he's leaving the camp to run and errand and he wants a Sayid to keep an eye on things. Sayid reveals that he can't feel anger, happiness, pain or anything else anymore. Locke says it's probably for the best considering what's coming. What exactly is coming?

Once Locke leaves, Jin sees his opportunity to make a break for it to try to find Sun. Sawyer tries to stop him, but during their conversation, the camp is suddenly attacked by tranquilizer darts which knocks out everyone. Widmore's team appears and looks through the people. Zoe and Seamus find Jin, who is the who they are looking for and they take him.

Sun & Jin not married in sideways, customs confiscates Jin's money

At LAX, Jin is released from customs, but they confiscate the $25,000 until Jin fills out the necessary paperwork. As he and Sun leave customs, Jin tells her that he missed a meeting at the restaurant and reveals that he doesn't know what the money is for. Much like the original timeline, Jin says he just does what her father tells her to do.

Once they reach the hotel, Sun gives the clerk a printout with her reservation, which is on the 8th floor (one of the numbers). Jin objects, saying there should be two rooms because he and Sun are not married. The clerk pulls up a room for Kwon which is room 842 (8 and 42 are two of the numbers).

So this is possibly the most shocking flash-sideways difference thus far. Jin and Sun are not married, but are traveling together to Los Angeles. Quite intriguing. More to come.

Widmore's team spies on Locke's camp + Locke talks to Jin

At Locke's camp, we see night vision images from Widmore's team observing Kate, Sawyer, Claire and Locke. We see that Sawyer managed to find some cocoa, presumably Dharma cocoa.

After the night vision shots, Locke approaches Jin and we learn that Sawyer told Jin about the candidates names in the cave. Locke says that he needs all of the remaining candidates together in order to leave the island and that he'll take care of bringing Sun back.

Claire can be seen eavesdropping on Locke and Jin's conversation, wondering how she fits into Locke's plan.

So does Locke really need the candidates to leave with him, or does he plan to kill them? He told Jacob in "Ab Aeterno" that he would kill anyone who might take Jacob's place.
