Plot summary
While treating her sick sister Rachel with an experimental drug that restores fertility, Juliet is interviewed by researcher Richard Alpert. She explains that her ex-husband and boss wouldn't let her quit unless he was "hit by a bus," which happens to him the next day. Ethan and Alpert rebuff her questions about his death and ask Juliet to join them in their work. In the present, Juliet tells Jack that they are on another island, so he tells Tom about her plan to kill Ben. Ben wakes and convinces her to trade Kate and Sawyer's safety for Jack's finishing the surgery.
Alex Rousseau helps Sawyer and Kate escape from Danny and promises them a boat if they rescue her boyfriend Karl, who is being held in a brainwashing facility. They save him but are stopped by Danny, whom Juliet kills. Jack asks Juliet what Ben offered her to renege on her plot against him, and she says that he promised to finally let her leave the island after three years.
