Locke tries to prevent Jack from stopping the interrogation, but Jack gains leverage when the Timer begins to go off, forcing Locke to give him the combination as it reaches zero. As Jack pulls Sayid off of Henry, Locke enters the Numbers a moment too late and witnesses the initial stages of a system failure before the computer resets. Sayid concludes Henry is indeed one of them because he feels no remorse for torturing the man, and reminds Charlie Pace of how dangerous the Others are, something he believes Jack has forgotten.
- Aaron Littleton develops a rash and fever. Locke seeks to summon Jack's help, but Rousseau convinces Claire Littleton of the possibility that Aaron has the Sickness, even though Jack thinks the rash is minor. Claire begins having flashes of memory, including the interiors of a medical station.
Day 59 - Friday, 19 November 2004[]
- Concerned about the continuing apparent sickness of her baby, Claire Littleton asks Elizabeth "Libby" Smith, a clinical psychologist, to help her remember the period of time when Claire was taken by the Others. Jack Shephard and John Locke discuss what to do with Henry Gale, whose cot is later noticed by Eko as he looks for the saw in the Swan in order to cut down trees for his church. With Libby's help, Claire starts remembering events from her kidnapping, including greater details about an underground medical facility. Claire leaves Aaron with Sun before she and Kate Austen go to look for Danielle Rousseau, who Claire now vaguely remembers as part of her time away from camp. Eko asks Jack if he may speak to the man they have in the Hatch.
- Rousseau takes them to where she found and was scratched by Claire, prompting a flash of memory that nearly completes the missing gaps for Claire. Following Claire, they find and enter the Staff, hoping to find medicine for Aaron. Searching the station, Kate finds ragged clothing neatly on hangers and a false beard with theatrical glue. Claire finds a bootie she knitted for Aaron, causing her to remember Alexandra Linus and the presence of medicine in the operating theater. However, there is no medicine, prompting Claire to first yell at Rousseau about its whereabouts - still believing the woman knows more than she is telling them - before her memory finally becomes complete, and she remembers Rousseau helping her escape.
- Outside of the station, Claire relates to a tearful Rousseau a newly recovered part of her memory about a young woman in her late teens with blue eyes who helped Claire escape and was not like the rest of the Others.
- That evening, Eko asks forgiveness from Henry for the murder of two Others before cutting off his beard tassels. Upon returning to camp, Claire and Kate find that Aaron's fever and rash have both cleared up, and Claire gives him the bootie, stating that she knows they are meant to be together. Using a carefully worded anecdote about Ernest Hemingway and Fyodor Dostoevsky, Henry begins to manipulate Locke with use of observations about the power struggle between the older man and Jack.
Day 60 - Saturday, 20 November 2004[]
- It is Rose Nadler's birthday.
- Finding Sun-Hwa Kwon in her garden, Jin-Soo Kwon forces his wife to leave by tearing up the plants there, fearing she will be attacked by the Others. Shortly thereafter, Rose and Bernard Nadler find Sun on the beach, feeling mysteriously ill. John Locke tells Ana Lucia Cortez about Henry Gale. Waiting in the bathroom for Jack Shephard to get out of the shower, Locke suggests to him that they have Ana talk to Henry. Upon Jack responding that he'll ask her, Locke reveals that she is already in the armory with him. Talking to the man, Ana convinces Henry to draw a map to his balloon in order to prove his innocence, agreeing with him that he's "dead already" if he refuses to draw the map. She conceals the map from Locke and Jack and shows Sayid Jarrah and Charlie Pace, taking the two with her to find the balloon and check Henry's story. Sun, with Kate Austen and Jack's help, finds out that she is pregnant. At night, Sayid tells Ana he does not blame her for Shannon Rutherford's death.
Day 61 - Sunday, 21 November 2004[]
- Ana Lucia Cortez, Charlie Pace, and Sayid Jarrah find the clearing on Henry's map, but at first do not see anything. While looking for oysters to give Rose Nadler a pearl, Bernard Nadler is told by James "Sawyer" Ford in front of Jin-Soo Kwon that Sun-Hwa Kwon is pregnant. Unable to understand them and alone again, Jin replants Sun's garden and tells her he needs her, and she tells him that she is pregnant and that it was always him who was sterile - yet promises she has never been with another man. Jin proclaims it a miracle. "Henry" continues playing mind-games with John Locke and Jack Shephard.
"Lockdown"
- Locke and Jack get annoyed with "Henry". After 3 hours of searching, Ana Lucia, Sayid, and Charlie find Henry Gale's balloon and a grave containing the body of a male, not a female - the real Henry Gale. Jack says Aaron Littleton's fever is gone and Elizabeth "Libby" Smith points out James "Sawyer" Ford's steep exchange prices for medical supplies. Locke hears noises from the speakers in the Swan announcing a lockdown. He is cut off from the Swan computer when the blast doors in the station come down. Jack plays poker with Sawyer, Hugo "Hurley" Reyes, and Kate Austen. Locke agrees to protect "Henry" in return for help in raising one of the lockdown doors. However, Locke gets trapped under the door, so "Henry" climbs through the ventilation system in the pantry to get to the computer. Meanwhile, Jack wins the medical supplies back from Sawyer in a poker game.
- "Henry" enters the numbers right as the hieroglyphics began flipping. The lights in the station go out, only to be replaced almost immediately by black lights, allowing Locke to see the blast door map, but only briefly before the normal lights come back on and "Henry" helps him up from the now-retreating doors. On the way back to the Hatch that night, Jack and Kate find a DHARMA periodic resupply drop. They meet the returning Ana Lucia, Charlie, and Sayid, who confront "Henry" with Henry Gale's driver's license.
Day 62 - Monday, 22 November 2004[]
- The survivors have been on the Island for two months.
"Dave"
- With Elizabeth "Libby" Smith's help, Hugo "Hurley" Reyes destroys his food stash, then immediately afterwards finds out about the supply drop. Given his role in managing the Swan pantrythe first time, the survivors ask Hurley to manage the new food supply, which he refuses. He then sees Dave in the jungle. Jack Shephard says John Locke has a hairline fracture in his leg from the blast doors. Sayid Jarrah interrogates "Henry" and almost shoots him for information about the Others, but is stopped by Ana Lucia Cortez. Charlie Pace beings helping Eko Tunde with his building project in earnest. While eating, Hurley again sees Dave and chases him through the jungle, before coming across Charlie and Eko on the beach, neither of whom have seen Dave. Hurley asks for the same type of medicine he took at the mental institution from James "Sawyer" Ford and attacks him when Sawyer makes fun of him. Hurley packs some peanut butter and leaves for the caves, intending to live as a hermit, but is interrupted when he drops his peanut butter and sees Dave again.
- Dave tries to convince Hurley that he went into a coma state in the mental institution, making the Island and everything on it a delusion, and urges him to commit 'suicide' to break out of it. While Jack tells the beach camp about their hostage, Locke speaks to "Henry," who tells him he never pressed the button. Libby convinces Hurley that the Island is real, and kisses him.
- That evening, Beatrice Klugh tells Michael Dawson that Benjamin Linus has been taken captive, and says they will let he and Walter Lloyd go free if he releases Ben. She gives him 3 minutes with his son. Walt tells Michael that the Others "are not who they say they are... they're pretending" and that they make him take tests. Bea gives Michael another task in addition to freeing Ben - bringing several survivors with him - and gives him a list with the names "Jack Shephard, Kate Austen, Hugo Reyes, and James Ford," telling him to bring them with him to the Others' camp. As a final condition, Michael demands their boat.
"The Deal"
- In the decoy village, Juliet Burke introduces herself to Michael, telling him that the boat is his and he can take Walt home as soon as Ben is free. She explains that she's worried about Walt because he's special and not ordinary. She's also glad that Michael is getting Walt off the Island and assures him she'll keep her end of the bargain. Furthermore, she tells him about her own deal she made with Ben regarding her sister. Michael asks Juliet why she would stay on the Island for her sister's sake, and in turn, Juliet asks Michael if he would do anything for his son.
Day 63 - Tuesday, 23 November 2004[]
"S.O.S."
- Rose and Bernard Nadler sort the food from the supply drop at the kitchen, a feature of permanence that leads Bernard to suggest that the survivors have given up on rescue. John Locke attempts to sketch the blast door map from memory, getting increasingly frustrated at his apparent inability to do so. Jack Shephard decides he will trade "Henry" to the Others for Walter Lloyd and gathers Kate Austen for his trip to the Line, the only place he knows of to contact them. Bernard gathers people for an idea he has had: build a massive "SOS" sign on the beach, to be seen by planes and satellites. Rose, however, believes that the idea is false hope to the survivors, something she voices in front of Bernard's assembled workforce. Still eager, Bernard is unsuccessful in recruiting Eko Tunde and Charlie Pace, who are busy building Eko's church.
- Bernard has trouble keeping workers for the SOS sign. Jack and Kate get caught in one of Rousseau's traps and shoot themselves down. Locke leaves the Hatch and Rose reminds him of the Island's healing powers. Kate tells Jack about the theatrical materials she found at the Staff and voices her displeasure at being left out of the with "Henry". Bernard gives up on his sign after he has lost all his help and Rose tells him that the Island healed her cancer, making her afraid to leave.
- That night, Locke completes his Blast door map, Eko and Charlie continue building their church, and other survivors bond with their family and friends. Waiting for the Others, Jack and Kate instead find Michael Dawson, who crosses the line before passing out in front .
- Jack carries Michael back to the Swan.
Day 64 - Wednesday, 24 November 2004[]
- When Ana Lucia Cortez brings "Henry" food, he attacks her before being knocked out by the nearby John Locke. While Ana is stitching her wound, Elizabeth "Libby" Smith tells her not to do anything stupid, and Ben tells Locke he was coming to take the older man back to the Others before he was caught by Danielle Rousseau. Jack Shephard and Kate Austen arrive at the Swan with Michael Dawson, unconscious after he stumbled out of the jungle in front of them at the line. Ana Lucia unsuccessfuly asks James "Sawyer" Ford for a gun. Upon being asked by Hugo "Hurley" Reyes about date ideas for Libby, Sayid Jarrah suggests Hurley takes Libby to his picnic spot where he once took Shannon Rutherford. Locke thinks the Others may have let Michael go. Ana follows Sawyer, has sex with him, and steals his gun.
- Libby catches Hurley packing for their picnic, and he confesses his plans to give her a surprise before they then set off. Michael wakes up and lies about what he has seen and done. Locke, Jack, and Kate go to get guns from Sawyer. Hurley gets lost and ends up back at their beach, without blankets or drinks, so Libby goes to the Swan for picnic blankets while he goes to find drinks.
"The Adventures of Hurley and Frogurt"
- Hurley goes to Rose and Bernard's tent to "borrow" some wine. Neil 'Frogurt' catches Hurley and tells the other man that he is interested in Libby and wants Hurley to stop "holding up the line" before Hurley retorts that he is much farther with Libby than "doing laundry", and is going to a picnic with her.
- While Jack demands Sawyer give them the guns, Ana plans to kill Ben but cannot do it. Michael tells Ana he'll do it for her but kills her and mortally wounds Libby, who has come for blankets, before shooting himself in the arm and freeing "Henry".
"?"
- In a dream, Ana Lucia tells Eko Tunde that he needs to help John, and Yemi Tunde, his brother, tells him to find the 'Question mark'. While Jack, Sawyer, Locke, and Kate return to the Swan blaming each other, a wounded Michael stumbles out of the Hatch. They find Ana dead, but Libby still barely alive. Eko offers he and Locke to go after Ben. Eko demands Locke take him to the '?' on Locke's sketch of the blast door map, which leads them to the Beechcraft.
Day 65 - Thursday, 25 November 2004 (Thanksgiving Day, USA)[]
"?"
- Jack Shephard tells James "Sawyer" Ford to get the heroin from his stash, sending Kate Austen with him to see where the stash is. After retreiving it from Sawyer's tent, they tell Hugo "Hurley" Reyes about Elizabeth "Libby" Smith's critical condition. Camping at the Beechcraft while in search of "the question mark", John Locke dreams he is Eko Tunde and sees Yemi Tunde climb the cliff. Upon hearing about the dream, Eko also climbs the cliff, discovering a "?" visible on the ground around the beechcraft. In the ground underneath the crashed plane, they discover hatch to the the Pearl. Hurley tells Michael Dawson about he and Libby's date, which she was retrieving blankets for when she was shot. The Pearl orientation video causes Locke to lose faith in entering the Numbers, but inspires Eko to take over the task.
- Hurley apologizes to Libby for forgetting the blankets who, in a brief moment of lucidity, utters "Michael". In an attempt to reassure the woman, Jack tells her that Michael is okay, and Libby dies with the knowledge of the truth. Upset, Jack packs his supplies, Eko and Locke return, Hurley mourns over Libby, and Michael considers what he has done.
- Michael burns the list he received from The Others before insisting that only 5 of the crash survivors go on a newly-planned journey to rescue Walter Lloyd. Jack, Hurley, Sawyer, and Kate take Ana Lucia Cortez and Libby's bodies to the beach for burial. While Michael is cleaning up Libby's blood in The Swan, Eko tells him a parable about hell. Michael then returns to the beach camp, once again insisting that only those five he has already said - Jack, Kate, Sawyer, Hurley, and himself - go on the mission. Charlie Pace brings a vaccine from the pallet to Claire and Aaron Littleton. Michael, only just now returning to the beach after being gone, is welcomed by Sun-Hwa Kwon before informing her that Libby and Ana Lucia "were murdered".
- Jack and Sawyer gather weapons for the mission to rescue Walt and Sayid Jarrah asks - and is welcomed by Sawyer - to join. Eko abandons the church and asks Charlie to help him move into the Swan to start entering the Numbers. Michael gets upset that Sayid is joining and tells him to stay, something Sayid agrees to. Vincent brings Charlie to Sawyer's stash with the last of the heroin-filled Virgin Mary statues, which Charlie throws into the ocean. Jack invites Eko to the funeral but he declines before Sawyer tells Jack about "getting caught in a net" with Ana. While digging two graves, Michael tries to convince Hurley to join their mission.
- At sunset, the survivors gather for the funeral. Locke cuts off his splint before joining them. Sayid warns Jack that he is almost certain Michael has been compromised, and is leading them into a trap. During the funeral for Libby and Ana Lucia, Hurley decides to join the mission to rescue Walt. In the midst of their mourning, Sun sees a sailboat coming towards the beach.
- Jack, Sayid and Sawyer swim to the sailboat and find Desmond Hume onboard, drunk. Desmond says after sailing due west for 2 weeks he returned to the Island instead of Fiji as expected. Sayid devises a secret plan to evade the Others' trap using Desmond's boat. Locke tries to stop Eko entering the Numbers, but Eko throws him out of the Swan and tells him not to come back.
The fact that it is Thanksgiving Day is completely ignored by all castaways and Others, possibly because the majority of American survivors are either trekking with Eko or trying to save Libby. Nikki Fernandez later laments that Thanksgiving was forgotten by the survivors in "Exposé".
Day 66 - Friday, 26 November 2004[]
- Jack Shephard, Kate Austen, Hugo "Hurley" Reyes, James "Sawyer" Ford and Michael Dawson set out for the Others' camp. Sawyer almost springs one of Rousseau's traps before being cautioned by Kate about the nets. While she is explaining to him that "caught in a net" was not a euphemism for sex, the Hurley bird swoops down on them and Michael realizes his gun is empty when he goes to fire upon it. While John Locke cries outside of the Swan for being thrown out, Charlie Pace tells him of Desmond Hume's arrival during the funeral. Sayid Jarrah, Jin-Soo Kwon, and Sun-Hwa Kwon leave for the Other's camp in the sailboat.
- That night, Locke tells Desmond about the Pearl and they decide to find out what happens when the button is not pushed. Michael thanks Jack for joining him.
- Benjamin Linus has more X-rays of his spine.
Day 67 - Saturday, 27 November 2004[]
"Ji Yeon"
- Jin-Soo Kwon turns 30 years old.
- Sayid Jarrah, Sun-Hwa Kwon and Jin pass the remains of the Statue of Taweret. Desmond Hume creates a lockdown in the Swan, successfully forcing Eko Tunde out of reach of the Swan computer, prompting the priest to climb up out of the Hatch to get Charlie Pace's help. James "Sawyer" Ford, alerted to the presence of pursuing Others by Kate Austen, shoots one of them before Jack Shephard makes Michael Dawson admit to the group that he shot Ana Lucia Cortez and Elizabeth "Libby" Smith to free "Henry Gale", and is leading the other four into a trap as part of a deal to get Walter Lloyd back. Jack claims to have prepared a counter-plan around the same that, at the shore of the island, Jin spots the rock with a hole that marks the the Others' camp.
- Charlie takes Eko to a hidden stash of dynamite from the Black Rock, which Eko takes back to the Swan sets to blow the blast doors. Charlie tries to dissuade him and reason that the Hatch could well be a psychological experiment, but Eko proves it's real by throwing Charlie's belt against the magnetic wall before he sets the fuse, with Charlie only barely managing to escape a fireball by jumping into the escape shaft. Locke prevents Desmond from opening the blast doors to check on them. The sailboat reaches the decoy village - which is abandoned - and Sayid opens the Door, revealing only a rock wall. The rescue party finds the capsule dump - proving that the Pearl was the real psychological experiment - before seeing Sayid's signal miles away from where they were headed. Whispers break out around the group before they are knocked unconscious by stun darts and captured by the Others. In the waning minutes of the timer, Locke tells Desmond about the Pearl and shows him the log printout. Seeing the date of the System Failure he experienced as September 24, 2004, Desmond realizes the crash of Oceanic Flight 815 coincided with the surge of electromagnetism. The Others tie and gag Jack, Kate, Sawyer, and Hugo "Hurley" Reyes, leading them to Pala Ferry, where Kate points out Tom Friendly's fake beard. Benjamin Linus arrives with the fishing boat to finish the deal.
- Locke breaks the Swan computer to prevent Desmond entering the Numbers, so Desmond raises the blast doors to retreive the fail-safe key from Our Mutual Friend. As the countdown timer runs down, metallic objects fly towards the electromagnet and the Swan shakes as if hit by an earthquake. Eko awakes and Locke admits his error. Desmond activates the fail-safe, causing the Swan to 'implode' and the sky to turn purple, as seen and heard across the Island.
- The underwater beacon guiding the submarine stopped emitting its locator signal.
- Charlie returns to the beach camp, finding that nobody has heard from Eko, Locke, or Desmond. Ben gives Michael a compass bearing of 325 to escape the Island and tells him the Others are "the good guys". Beatrice Klugh sends Hurley back to warn the rest of the survivors to stay away from the other side of the Island, and Ben tells him that Jack, Kate, and Sawyer "are coming home with us". Michael, Walt, and Hurley leave while the rest are hooded and taken away. That night, Claire asks Charlie about what happened in the Swan and kisses him.
- At 3:05am GMT (7.05pm PST), Mathias and Henrik at the listening station detect an electromagnetic anomaly and inform Penelope Widmore.

Tom puts Kate in the cage opposite Sawyer and removes her cuffs. Juliet tells Jack his life and weakens his resistance using comprehensive information about his ex-wife, and he asks if she's happy. Ben congratulates Juliet on her work which she shrugs off.
- Desmond wakes up in the jungle naked. He sees the imploded Swan station and his photo. He calls out wanting to go back and fix it.
- Locke wakes up in the jungle sees Desmond run past him, but is unable to speak. Locke communicates to Charlie that he needs to 'speak to the Island' and builds a sweat lodge. Locke mixes up and takes a hallucinogen and sees Boone in a vision. Boone tells Locke he needs to "clean up his own mess" before he can help Jack, Kate, and Sawyer. Locke goes to find Eko and discovers he was dragged off by a polar bear and tells Charlie to go back. They find the Hatch has imploded, are chased by a polar bear, and find Hurley.
- Locke enters the Polar bear cave with a torch. Desmond meets Hurley and asks him for clothes. Locke finds a toy truck and skeletons and rescues Eko from a polar bear. Desmond tells Hurley about the fail-safe key and mentions a speech made by Locke to save Jack, Kate, and Sawyer. Locke and Charlie carry Eko back while he tells about his dream.
