Influences[]
The first movement is a variation of Desmond's theme. The second movement blends the Others' main motif with Ben's theme before leading into the Others' theme. Ben's theme returns, followed by Desmond's theme and then Ben's theme again. It ends on its own motif.
Title significance[]
Michael betrayed the other survivors. Before he leaves, Ben wishes him "Bon Voyage." Michael leaves by boat, making the naval phrase particularly appropriate.
