Jungle: Thunder rumbles overhead as Faucke turns to his newest companion: "Do you have any idea where I'm taking you, Desmond?" For a pony ride! No joke, when my father and his twin were little, they had to have their tonsils out. Their parents told them they were taking them for pony rides. Hey, don't bag on my dearly departed grandparents. They were both orphaned (one actually, one virtually) at an early age. They were good people, but they made up the parenting as they went along. And one huge childhood betrayal provided decades of amusement to multiple generations. And no, my dad and uncle didn't need therapy. They drank, thank you very much. All right, all right, I'll start a fresh paragraph.
Desmond assumes wherever Faucke's taking him, there's probably a very bright light. Faucke asks why he figures that. Des: "Oh, just a hunch." Then there's this funny noise. Faucke turns to Ben: "What was that?" Ben's face is all Desmond cut the cheese, as he says, "What was what?" After Faucke turns, Ben reaches in his pocket and switches off the walkie he snagged from Widmore.
New Otherton Outskirts: Miles' efforts to reach Ben on the walkie are to no avail, so he wakes up Richard who is totally alive. Hooray! They decide to take the C4 to Hydra Island and blow up that plane.
Sideways: Detective Miles Straume is just getting out of his car at the concert venue, when he sees Hugo and Sayid drive by. Miles calls and reports this to his partner, Detective James Ford, on account of the fact that they think Sayid popped four people in cold blood, which is totally not true. He popped three of them in the heat of the moment and Jin took care of the fourth. Jim says it's not possible, since he shipped Sayid off to county. Miles informs him he called there first; Sayid never showed up. Jim will head over to St. Sebastian's to interview the survivor -- Ms. Paik. "Enjoy your concert, Enos. I'll keep her safe."
