When James grabs the Apollo bar from Juliet, they flash instantly and simultaneously. Dharmaville kitchen kissing. Talking on the dock late at night. Back in the present, Juliet and James jump to their feet and back. James: "Whoa. Did you feel that?" Juliet's trying to catch her breath. She closes the gap between them. "We should get coffee sometime." James would love to, but the machine ate his money; he's only got one buck left. Juliet (tearfully): "We could go Dutch." We flash to a dying Juliet saying that in the hatch pit. In the present, she grabs his candy bar hand. Kitchen embrace. Dock talk. Spooning in their Dharmaville bed. Kissing, hugging, sunflowering. Sad talk by the window. James holding onto Juliet so she won't fall down the Swan shaft. Their hands slipping apart. James screaming.
In the present, James finally says her name. "Juliet. Juliet it's me." Her eyes are closed. He grabs her face in his hands. She caresses his cheeks. He takes her into his arms and she sobs on his shoulder as he strokes her hair and comforts her. "It's me, baby," and then, "I gotcha. I gotcha, baby." Weeping, she pulls her head off his shoulder to look him in the eyes. Her laughter bubbles up through her tears. "Kiss me, James." James: "You got it, Blondie." Their kisses close out the scene. This is the 8th time I cry.
