6x13 The Last Recruit: Recap
2004
Locke, having survived being hit by a smiling Desmond in his car, is rushed to the hospital. Ben stays with him. Sun, having been shot in the stomach, is rushed to the same hospital, where she is wheeled next to Locke. She recognizes him on sight and becomes fearful. Later she wakes up to Jin holding her hand, telling her she and the baby are okay. At the police station, Sawyer talks with Kate, who he has arrested. She recognizes him from the flight, and notes that he didn’t arrest her because he didn’t want anyone to know he was in Australia. Miles interrupts them because he has surveillance footage of Sayid with Keamy and his men. Miles and Sawyer go to Nadia’s house and arrest Sayid. Desmond finds Claire as she is about to go meet with an adoption agency, and persuades her to meet with his lawyer first, who turns out to be Ilana. Ilana has been looking for Claire because she is mentioned in Christian Shepard’s will. When Jack arrives for the reading of the will, he is introduced to Claire and finds out she is his half-sister. Jack is called to the hospital and he and his son leave. Jack is called in to operate on Locke, but before making the first incision, recognizes him.
2007
Hurley has just led Jack, Sun, and Lapidus to FLocke’s camp. FLocke wants to speak with Jack, but Jack first gets the go-ahead from Hurley. During their conversation, FLocke admits to taking on the image of Christian Shepard. Jack asks who else Flocke has impersonated, but they are interrupted by Claire, who has come to talk to her brother. FLocke leaves them, and when he returns to camp he is greeted by Zoe, who summons a bomb a short distance from the camp, and threatens to bomb all of FLocke’s follows if Desmond is not returned. She leaves him with a radio with with which to contact her, which Locke destroys after she leaves. Flocke send Sawyer and Kate to find the boat and bring it to the rendezvous point where he and the others will be waiting. Sawyer creates a plan to utilize his deal with Widmore, and get he and his friends off the island. He tells Jack to break away from the group when he can, and meet them at a separate rendevous point and bring Hurley, Sun, and Lapidus. FLocke sends Sayid off to kill Desmond, who is being kept prisoner in the well. When Sayid arrives, Desmond asks what he will tell Nadia when she asks what he did to see her again. When Sayid meets up with FLocke later, he tells him Desmond is dead, but we never see this happen. When Jack departs from the group, Claire sees them and follows. She catches up with them at the boat, and Kate convinces her to come with them, taking the shotgun she had threatened them with. On the boat, after they have traveled a bit, Jack tells Sawyer leaving the island is a big mistake, and he feels like a piece of him is missing when he leaves. Sawyer grows angry, and tells Jack to get off the boat. Jack apologizes for Juliet’s death, then jumps from the boat, as Kate calls out to him. Sawyer reaches to shore to find FLocke and the others waiting for him. Meanwhile, the boat reaches Hydra, and Sun and Jin are reunited, and Sun can speak English again. Suddenly Widmore calls Zoe, and she holds them at gunpoint and tells them to get on their knees, while bombs are sent to the other island targeted at FLocke and his group. Many (if not all?) of the others are taken out in the blast, and FLocke grabs Jack, who has been thrown by the blast, and rushes him into the trees, telling him “You’re with me now”
