We also get the opportunity to learn more about Juliet and her past. Charlie and Hurley go through Sawyers personal belongings and food stash back at the beach and Charlie finds himself under attack by Desmond. From Sky One UK 1/26/07: Ben's life is in Jack's hands, but the doc's gambit to free Kate and Sawyer hits a geographical snag. Still, the runaways elude Danny and the other guards, with the help of unlikely allies. Flashbacks follow Juliet's medical career, which has a very personal component to it. From TV Guide 1/17/07: Juliet is working for her ex-husband in infertility research in Miami. She's miserable, but apparently unable to leave her position. A company "in Portland" makes a great offer, but she says that the only way that she can take the job is if her boss/ex-husband were "hit by a bus." Soon after, he's hit by a bus [this is in line with the previous spoiler of a man being hit by a bus that carries an ad for Apollo Candy Bars.]. Ethan visits her at the morgue and renews the offer. She's told the position isn't really in Portland, but she still commits to six months. She's also experimenting on her sister and they are happy to find that she is pregnant and Juliet was promised by Ethan that she would be back in time for the birth of her sister's baby. Meanwhile on the Island, Alex helps Kate and Sawyer escape from Pickett. She makes a deal with them. If they save Karl, she'll give them a boat. They find him being forced to watch a brainwashing video and free him. In the operating room, Ben wakes up during the surgery and overhears that Juliet tried to get Jack to kill him. Juliet and Ben have a side chat and she leaves. The episode climaxes at the beach where Kate, Sawyer and Karl try to board the boat that Alex promised them. Pickett arrives, but Juliet shoots him and lets Kate, Sawyer and Karl go. Juliet tells Alex that she can't go because Ben, her father, wouldn't be happy. Juliet also reveals to Jack that Ben promised to let her go home since she's been on the island three years, two months and some-odd days. From Posting at TWOP[We went ahead and posted this info because it seems to line up with various other clues that have previously trickled out. Juliet's time on the Island seems to have started around the time of the September 11th attacks.] 1/17/07:Edmund Burke, A Clockwork Orange and A Brief History of Time are said to be referenced. From Entertainment Weekly Article[Edmund Burke was rumored to be the name of the college professor that Juliet spoke to in her flashbacks. There is supposedly a psychodelic-like brainwashing video in the episode, which would be the A Clockwork Orange reference (and yes, the PatriotResource knows that Kubrick's movie was based on the book of the same name). as far as A Brief History of Time, maybe whatever was walled up inside the Hatch behaves like a black hole (afterall, the Hatch imploded) or bends time.] 1/17/07: Toward the end of the episode a character will state exactly how long they have been on the Island. Keeping in mind that it's November 2004 (only a couple months after the crash) on the Island, the stated length of time supposedly corresponds to the date of a real-world event From Entertainment Weekly Article[Everyone is naturally assuming that it'll correspond to September 11, 2001, but that would be too easy, wouldn't it?] 1/17/07: Juliet's flashbacks will "help explain" why she joined the Others. From Elizabeth Mitchell Interview with SciFi Wire[Wouldn't the flashbacks feel pointless if they told us something completely unrelated to what's happening on the Island?] 1/15/07: Ben wakes up during the surgery. Based on Promo pics and National Post Article 1/15/07: Juliet's sister appears in flashback and is expected to sppear again later in the season.

From Promos 1/5/07: Just outside the operating room, Juliet tells Jack to go back in and save Ben because she's going to help his friends escape. From Promos 1/5/07: Kate doesn't want to leave Jack behind. Jack wants her to promise him that she won't come back for him as she cries.
