I could not have been more wrong about what this episode was going to be about and let me just say that I was incredibly sad after watching it as it meant that for the time being I have lost a bet for bragging rights that I have going with a friend about who Kate will end up with (although technically he hasn't won yet and he lost the bet first when Kate told Jack off a couple weeks ago, so there is still hope, after all this is only season 5, season 6 could bring multiple surprises/changes). Anyway let's just get to the plot shall we:
The plot starts 3 years ago right after Locke disappears down the well after the flash. The flash puts Sawyer and friends in the time when the four-toed statue was still whole, then John turns the wheel, another flash occurs and the well (minus the hole) disappears. The group discovers that their headaches are gone and their noses have quit bleeding (which means Locke fixed the problem). Sawyer decides that all they need to do is wait for Locke to come back and that they will wait as long as it takes.
The plot then jumps 3 years into the future or 'present time' on the island (which is not present time in 'real life'). We see Dharma hippies (a fella and a lady) partying (or rather having a hootenanny) in some security station when another guy comes in and complains about the lady being there. While the tow men argue the lady sees something on one of the screens that upsets her, it's a guy at the sonic fence (who is soon determined to be Horace, the leader of the Dharma Initiative at the time) blowing up trees with dynamite. The two guys kick the girl out and after a short debate decide to go get someone named LaFleur. They run to his house, wake him up, and inform him of the situation. He swears and is discovered to be Sawyer (wow, shocker). He then goes to pick up Miles in a hippy van and the two of them head out to go pick up the drunken Horace deciding to keep the whole drunken thing on the down-low. Sawyer takes Horace back to his wife Amy (who is very pregnant) at their house and question her about why he came to be that way (meaning what kind of fight they got into during which AMy goes into labour.
Three years earlier:
The group goes back to pick up Dan (who they left with Charlotte) only to discover that Charlotte is no longer with them in many manners of speaking (she's dead and therefore did not move with them in the next flash). They also discover that they are stuck in whatever timeline they are in. Sawyer takes charge and suggests that they all go back to the beach to wait for Locke which raises protest from Miles (who is very cynical, but has a point, all anybody does on this show is go back to the beach), Juliet agrees with Sawyer's 'stupid idea' and they head back to the beach. On the way they encounter a couple being attacked by the Hostiles the man has been shot and the woman is being taken (bag over the head etc.). The group then argues about how to handle the situation (Dan states that it doesn't matter what they do as they cannot change the past) and Sawyer and Juliet end up 'going in.' Sawyer demands that one of the attackers drop his gun to which he recieves a shot (which should have killed him , but didn't even touch him because if he had died in the past he never could have come to the island in the first place), Juliet kills the Hostile that shot Sawyer and Sawyer shoots the other Hostile leaving them and the woman who was being taken. They take the bag off of her head and tell her that everything is going to be okay to which she replies "Who are you?" The group discovers that they are in the 70's or the 80's due to the fact that the Dharma people are still there. They inform the lady that they saved (who turns out to be Amy) that they have get moving after discovering that the Hostiles had a radio on them (they also tell her that they are shipwrecked and looking for the rest of their crew). She becomes very upset and determines that they must bury the dead Hostiles due to some sort of truce and gets Jin to agree to carry her husband (the dead Dharma dude) back with them. Along the way Sawyer tells everyone to let him do the talking since he used to lie for a living which is sort of agreed to when Juliet yells for Dan to stop (they have come across the Sonic fence). She then demands that Amy turn the fence off (which is not at all suspicious) because 'it looks like some sort of sonic fence or something' (wow...convincing cover). Amy turns it off (after taking something out of the power box thing that controls the fence) and safely walks through it, but when the others walk through it they are knocked unconscious by the sonic noise...Amy takes earplugs out of her ears.
Three years later:
Amy needs a C-section because the baby is a breach so Sawyer goes to get Juliet who reluctantly comes to help (she doesn't think she can do it because every woman she treied to help give birht on the island died). The two run back to the clinic where Amy states that she wants Juliet to do the operation, Sawyer gives Juliet his vote of confidence and goes to wait outside where Jin (who now speaks fluent English) meets him and tells him that they finished another search grid with no sign of 'their people' then when Sawyer tells him that they are to start the next search grid the next day Jin asks how long they are going to continue to look, Sawyer replies that they will spend as much ime as it takes. Then Juliet comes out and informs them that the baby is a healthy boy and therefore everything went as planned. Hooray. (This means that whatever prevents pregnant women from giving birth on the Island hasn't happened yet, I think it would be incredibly ironic if whatever that 'thing' is is Juliet's fault.)
Three years ago:
Sawyer wakes up in the rec room (where to date he, Kate, Ben, and Sayid have all been held prisoner) where he is met by Horace who tells him that the restof his people are fine and then questions Sawyer about who he and his people are. Sawyer tells him that his name is James 'Jim' LaFleur and that he and his crew shipwrecked during a storm during their search for the famous slaving ship called the Black Rock and that the only reason they were in the jungle was because they were looking for the rest of their people. Horace tells James that he and his fellow survivors will be leaving the Island the next day on the submarine and if the rest of his people show up they will send them off the Island too. Meanwhile Juliet informs Miles of her sketchy past with the Others. Dan sees a three-year-old Charlotte (yeah, techniqually she shouldn't have been born until 1979 being as she is only thirty years old and they are in '76 if memory serves) playing in the yard and tells the others that there will be no more flashes. Horace and James then come out and join them, Horace tells them that someone will be along shortly to show them to their rooms then leaves James to tell them that they will be taking the sub to Tahiti the next day. All of the sudden a buzzer alarm sounds and the survivors are whisked into a house. From the window they see Richard Alpert walk into the yard. Horace oes out to meet Alpert who informs Horace that he has broken the truce by killing two Hostiles which Horace denies. Horace goes bakc into the house to talk to James who informs Horace that he is going to go talk to Alpert. He walks out onto the lawn and addresses Alpert as Richard which surprises the man as they haven't met in his timeline. James then admits to killing the two men and being as he is not Dharma the truce has not been broken, Alpert then asks him who he is to which he responds by asking him if he buried the bomb and then talking about Locke barging into the Hostile camp 20 years previous and claiming that he was their leader which convinces Alpert that James is indeed not Dharma. Alpert replies that his people still demand justice for the killings and it is agreed upon that Alpert will take the dead man's (Amy's ex-husband's) body back as justice for the Hostiles. Horace informs Amy of this decision and gives her the choice of whether to go through with the deal she agrees (she didn't really have a choice it was either give them the body or let all the Dharma people die). She then takes a necklace from her dead husband's neck. Horace then tells James that he can stay for two weeks to look for his crew. James goes to tell Juliet who is sitting on the dock by the sub, she tels him that she has decided to leave the next morning, he puts on the charm and changes her mind.
Three years later:
James picks a flower and takes it to Juliet who is cooking dinner in their house. He gives her the flower, they kiss and profess their love for each other (I become very angry with the stupid bastard for forgetting about Kate and falling for the women who tortured him, Kate, and Jack, threatened Kate's life and almost allowed his to be taken, gave orders for the Others to kill him and Kate, lied to all of the 815 survivors about her hidden agenda invloving kidnapping the pregnant/possibly pregnant women from their camp, etc.). James then goes to tell Horace that he is a Daddy and confront him about the fight he and Amy had that caused him to get drunk and blow up trees. He tells James that he found Amy's ex-husband's necklace in her sock drawer and they got into a fight when he confronted her about it. He asks James if 3 years is enough to get over someone to which James replies by going into a long schpeel about a girl (Kate) who he used to love and how she left and he held onto her for a while because he thought that she might be coming back, but now that 3 years have passed he has gotten over her BECAUSE HE DOESN'T THINK SHE'S EVER GOING TO COME BACK. (That's in caps because it means that he is not over her now that she is back and I still have a shot at winning my bet so there Aaron). The next morning James is awakened by a phone call from Jin informing him that he has found some of their people. James tells him not to bring them in and that he will meet them in some valley. When he gets there he is greeted by Hurley, Jack, and last of all Sawyer's long-lost-love Kate.
L O S T
(In case you were wonder, which I'm sure you weren't I started calling Sawyer, James about halfway through this post, that is because he has changed from the cynical, sarcastic, hilarious fellow who was in love with Kate, to an annoying, stupid, 'sensitive nerd in bad need of a hair cut who has seemingly settled down with Juliet.)
