The End
Season 6 · 2010 · 18 episodes. Flash sideways.
Two timelines. A temple. The protector. What happened, happened.
LA X, Part 1
White flash. The bomb exploded. Or didn't. No one knows. Two realities open. The first: the island. Jack wakes up in the jungle. In the present. The hatch is a crater. Juliet is at the bottom. Alive. Sawyer pulls her out. She whispers something. Then she dies in his arms.
LA X, Part 2
Sayid is alive. But Dogen tests him. Electric shocks. Burns. He tells the others: "He failed the test." Sayid has been "infected". Something is growing inside him. The same thing that took Claire.
What Kate Does
Dogen explains to Jack what's happening to Sayid. An "infection." A darkness that grows. It starts with the heart. Then it takes everything. "It happened to your sister too." Claire. Claire is infected. For years. Alone in the jungle.
The Substitute
The Man in Black — in Locke's form — goes to find Sawyer. At the barracks. Sawyer drinks. Alone. He doesn't care about anything. "I can see why you're here." — "You're dead." — "That's relative."
Lighthouse
Jacob appears to Hurley. At the temple. "You need to take Jack somewhere." Hurley obeys. He convinces Jack to follow him. They walk. For a long time. They find a lighthouse. Ancient. Made of stone. No one had ever seen it.
Sundown
The Man in Black sends a message to the temple. Through Claire. "Join me before sundown. Those who stay will die." Dogen doesn't move. He believes in the temple's protection.
Dr. Linus
Ben flees the temple. With Ilana, Sun, Miles, Frank and Lapidus. Ilana knows. Miles confirmed it: Ben killed Jacob. Ilana ties Ben to a tree. Gives him a shovel. "Dig your grave."
Recon
The Man in Black sends Sawyer on a mission. Hydra island. The Others' old base. See what's happening there. Sawyer accepts. He plays along. For now.
Ab Aeterno
Tenerife. 1867. Ricardo. A simple man. His wife, Isabella, is dying. Tuberculosis. Ricardo gallops to the doctor. The doctor refuses to come. Ricardo begs him. A scuffle. The doctor falls. Cracks his skull. Ricardo takes the medicine and leaves. Too late. Isabella is dead. Ricardo is arrested for murder.
The Package
The Man in Black wants Sun. She's one of the candidates. "Kwon" is on the wall. But which one? Sun or Jin? He comes for her. Sun runs. Hits her head. Wakes up unable to speak English. Only Korean comes out.
Happily Ever After
Widmore subjects Desmond to a massive electromagnetic field. The same energy that's under the island. Anyone else would die. Not Desmond. He is the constant.
Everybody Loves Hugo
Ilana carries dynamite from the Black Rock. She explains the plan. Destroy the plane. Stop the Man in Black from leaving. She packs the dynamite in her bag. The bag explodes. Ilana is dead. Instantly. Like Arzt in season 1.
The Last Recruit
The Man in Black speaks to Jack. In private. "I was the one who took your father's form. On the island. In the beginning." Christian Shephard in the jungle. It was the monster. Since the first episode. Jack takes the hit.
The Candidate
The Man in Black proposes a plan. Widmore's submarine. "Get on board. Leave. I stay." Jack doesn't buy it. "You want us to leave? Why?" Sawyer wants to go. Now.
Across the Sea
Ancient times. A pregnant woman washes ashore on the island. Another woman welcomes her. Helps her give birth. Twins. The first: Jacob. The second: nameless. The woman kills the mother. She raises the boys as her own.
What They Died For
Jacob appears. Around a fire. Jack, Kate, Hurley and Sawyer see him. For the first time. All together. Jacob is calm. Almost tender. "It's time I told you why you're here."
The End, Part 1
Jack is the guardian. He feels the island. He knows where to go. The heart. The source of light. The Man in Black goes there too. With Ben and Desmond. Same destination. Opposite reasons. Jack wants to protect. The Man in Black wants to destroy.
The End, Part 2
Jack, the Man in Black and Desmond reach the heart of the island. The cave of light. The golden stream. Jack and his enemy lower Desmond together. Desmond enters the light. He removes the stone cork. The light goes out. The water runs dry. The island shakes.
