CHARACTERS
  • Shannon feeling a great sense of grieve asks Sayid to do something about Locke killing her brother. in order to please her Sayid confronts Locke and gets to locate the beachcraft which Sayid finds out was actually there. he also finds out that Locke was the one who attacked him from behind when he was trying to triangulate Rousseau's power source but does nothing to hurt Locke. when he returns Shannon isn't pleased about the lack of Sayid efforts to avenge her brother so she takes it on her own by taking Jack's keys to locate the gun briefcase. I don't know how she figured out the whereabouts of the breifcase. my best guess would be from Sayid. or maybe from Boone who find out from Locke when Jack showed him game changer. as a result she gets Locke on 'hands up' position when Sayid figures out what happened to the key and jumps on her and diverting the bullet just enough that it barely scratches Locke's forehead and further more loses Shannon for good. Sayid angry at Locke demands where the hatch is and Locke has no choice but to show him.
  • Jack furious about why Locke lied to him which misguided him in his evaluation on Boone's injuries. so it looks like Jack still has a hard time letting things go. he comes out and tells everybody that Locke lied which in essence divides the group into now between Locke and the rest of the crew.
  • ever sense Jin and Sun have broken up, Sun has done more to gain the trust of the crew than they were together. although Jin's lack of English skills he has also gained trust from Michael through his dedication to build the raft.
