"Hey... I carried that case across the ocean and like, through time, so I wanna know what that paper said."

At the Temple, our group is met by Dogen. He's an imposing Japanese man, and it's clear he's in charge. He speaks to them in Japanese, and his interpreter, Lennon, translates for him. Who are they? A woman speaks up. It's Cindy, the flight attendant from 815. She tells Dogen they were on the first plane with her. Dogen is unhappy about it. He tells Lennon they're not allowed to see the Temple and orders them to be shot. Hurley immediately shouts out that Jacob sent them, and that stops Dogen. He tells Hurley to prove it. Hurley points to the guitar case and says Jacob gave it to him. Dogen opens the case, and inside is a large ankh. Dogen looks at it with reverence – and then snaps it in two over his knee! Inside is a piece of paper, and Dogen has each of them say their name. They can see that something larger and profound is happening. Dogen orders them inside and Sayid to be taken to the spring. Hurley asks what was on that paper, and Lennon explains that if they let Sayid die, they're all in a lot of trouble.

"He was weak and pathetic and irreparably broken."

Inside the foot statue, Ben talks to Locke. He's shocked at having seen Locke turn into the smoke monster and kill Bram and his men. He also realizes Locke used Ben to kill Jacob. Locke says Ben should know that he was confused when Ben killed him. Ben doubts Jacob was confused, but Locke corrects him – not Jacob but John Locke. He didn't understand why Ben was killing him. But it's fitting. When John first came to the island, he was weak, pathetic and broken. But there was something admirable about him, too. He was the only one who didn't want to leave. But that's the great irony because he wants the one thing that John Locke didn't. He wants to go home.

 

WHOOOSH to customs as Jin's luggage is searched. The language barrier is a problem – Jin speaks no English and the customs officer doesn't speak Korean. Jin's frustration grows when the officer finds a bag filled with thousands of American dollars. Jin didn't declare it on his form. The customs official takes Jin away, and he doesn't understand what's going on. A female officer tells Sun if she understands English and this is just a misunderstanding, she should speak up now so things will be easier for her husband.

"No... English."

But Sun only stares at her. The officer asks if Sun speaks English, and Sun shakes her head. No… English.
