Season 3 | Episode 9 | Aired 02/21/07

Waiting in his Hydra station cell, Friendly tells Jack they're moving him. Guards cuff Jack and take him out. In the hallway, he passes Juliet, who is also cuffed, and put into his old cell. Jack sees Friendly taking orders from a new woman, Isabel. Friendly warns Jack that Juliet is in trouble. Isabel is their "sheriff" and here to investigate Juliet.

Kate and Sawyer row towards their island. Kate wants to go back for Jack, but Sawyer says no. The tension is thick. Karl warns them that if they go back, Ben would kill them. They argue about rowing back to their camp or stopping for the night. Sawyer says he's not rowing at night and they pull ashore. Kate is not happy about being told what to do.

Juliet is let out to show Jack a picture of Ben's back. It's infected and Ben has a fever. She wants Jack to help Ben as a favor to her. She's in trouble for killing someone and this would help her case. Tired of no real answers and feeling manipulated, Jack refuses.

We flashback to Thailand. Jack comes out of his hut on the beach, buys sodas from a Thai boy, and tries to fly a kite. It's a disaster. He can't even put it together correctly. A Thai woman watches him and laughs at his efforts. She finally comes over and helps him. She surprises Jack by speaking English and introduces herself as Achara. She takes him to a restaurant where her brother, Chet, is the chef. She's clearly flirting with him, but then a man approaches and gives Achara an envelope filled with money. Jack is suspicious. She will only tell Jack that she has a gift.
