Part I
Morning. The Losties have made it to the beach.
Yeah Ben, I think Illana would like you to go fuck yourself.
Back in LA.
Oh, a tv dinner.
Ben taking care of his father. Cause he didn't kill him in the alternate verse.
An "organic" tv dinner.
Ah ha! The DHARMA Initiative exists in this reality!!! But is it the same DHARMA Initiative, I wonder.
Imagine how different our lives would have been if we had stayed. Hmm...
Alex!!!
Are we going to see Rousseau?
And why are all the characters living in LA, even the ones who never lived there in the first place?
It's like Jacob and the Smoke Monster are writing fanfic.
Back on the island.
Illana knows Jacob's list. Carrying out Jacob's desire to protect the Chosen Few.
If you're the one selected, I imagine you'll find out.
6 candidates left.
Hurley and Jack.
Mmm, cheese curds.
Richard!
So where did Richard come from? Huh? Why is that even a question? Did he go somewhere special between the last episode we saw him in and this one?
The things people will bring on a trip. Heh.
Imagine how different my life would be if that alarm had gone off. That makes me think of Seth McFarlane, who missed being on one of the planes that crashed into the WTC because he slept through his alarm.
The island still got you in the end, didn't it?
Yay, it's reckoning time!!! This should be good.

Part II Ben tutoring Alex. More about powerful and corporations. Some one who went to Yale. Dude, Ben is so going to use this juicy gossip against the principal. Back on the island. digging, digging, digging. Ben is trying every trick in the book and nothing is working. Kind of sucks when Jacob and the Smoke Monster are no longer on your side, isn't it? Richard, Hurley, and Jack. Hurley asks about Richard's immortality. And keeps pressing him about it. How much do I love Hurley? Let me count the ways... Time Traveller? Cyborg? Vampire? ;D Jacob gave Richard a gift. Well, we knew that already. I know Jacob's dead. And that's the end of this conversation. The Black Rock!!!!! So Richard went to Temple and doubled back again. Does everybody on the island have a love-hate relationship with Jacob? Richard's going to go and die. Because whatever magic made Richard immortal is gone now that Jacob is dead?

Part III
Back in LA.
How hard is it to learn the difference between a genus and a species. Is there some deeper meaning to that line?
Doc Arzt negotiating for a parking space. See? Just what I said: politics.
Not under the maple tree, next to the maple tree. Ha!
You had me fooled with that sweater vest. You're a real killer. If you only knew...
Back on the island.
The grave not quite 6 feet deep. Come on, Ben! Chop chop!
The Black Rock.
Richard's inside.
For some reason in the last shot he was in it seemed like he was walking away from the Black Rock instead of toward it.
Dynamite.
OK, Richard still can't kill himself, but now other people can kill him.
There's been a lot of killing-by-proxy going around lately, huh? I wonder if this has to do with "the rules" we keep hearing about.
When Jacob touches you, it's a gift. Except it's actually a curse. Well, he touched all the candidates, so... what does that mean?
I devoted my life in service of a man who told me that everything was happening for a reason, that he had a plan and that I was a part of it and when the time was right he would share it with me. And now that man's gone. So, why do I want to die? I just found out my entire life had no purpose.
Richard's existential crisis, with Judeo-Christian flavors.
If he wants to die, there's nothing we can do to stop him. Um, were you not listening, Jack? His life and death are entirely in your hands at the moment! At least get him to answer more questions before agreeing to off him.
Yay, Jack is getting smarter every day!!

Part IV
I love Jack when he's this kind of crazy.
Let's go back to where we started.
Which would be the beach.
The Smoke Monster Cometh.
Ben doesn't recognize being manipulated the way he tries to manipulate other people.
NotLocke's army is massing on the Hydra station.
Next time Illana, if you're going to kill some one, just do it and dispense with the creative punishment.
Back in LA.
Ben makes his move.
And he gets double crossed. Or worse, he has to betray Alex to make his power play.
Back on the island.
Running, running, running.
Where did this gun come from I wonder? Or was it just NotLocke's magic?
I watched my daughter Alex die in front of me. And it was my fault. I had a chance to save her, but I chose the island over her. All in the name of Jacob. I sacrificed everything for him and he didn't even care. Yeah, I stabbed him- I was so angry- confused- I was terrified that I was about to lose the only thing that had ever mattered to me: my power. But the thing that really mattered was already gone. I'm sorry that I killed Jacob, but I do not expect you to forgive me because I can never forgive myself.
Going to NotLocke. Because he's the only one who will have him.
Illana shows mercy. And compassion. And Ben found a new person to devote himself to.
Hot damn, that was an excellent scene.

Coda
Back in LA.
So Ben sold Alex out?
No, I guess he didn't? Huh?
Or he negotiated a slightly smaller power play. To get the History Club back.
Doc Arzt is stuck with detention now, isn't he? Poor unappreciated Science Club.
Ben offers up his parking space. Wow, he's a giver.
See, just what I said: public school = politics.
Back on the island.
Ben turns over a new leaf.
For good? And does this mean he's going to die soon?
Miles took the diamonds.
Hurley, Jack, and Richard return to the group.
Out on the ocean.
A submarine? Ah, the one from the Hydra station.
No! It's Widmore!!!!!
OMG, THIS IS GOING TO BE AWESOME!!!!
