Lost Returns: Hour Two

Island. Sawyer gets to work burying Juliet with Miles, while everyone else takes Sayid to the Temple.

LAX. Jack is told that there's been a mix-up with his father's coffin - it was never put on the plane. In fact, they don't know where it is.

Temple. Our people are captured by The Others Part Deux - some vaguely cult-looking types hanging out in the Temple.

LAX. Kate asks the U.S. Marshal to let her use the bathroom. While in there, she tries to break out of her handcuffs and isn't successful, but is still able to knock out the Marshal. Damn, but Kate is a badass chick. She escapes into an elevator with Sawyer.

Juliet's Grave. Sawyer asks Miles to talk to Juliet (oh yeah, Miles is awesome and he can speak to ghosts) and find out what she wanted to tell him. The answer? "It worked." Too bad that's not helpful. Thanks a lot, Ghost of Juliet.

Temple. Cindy the Stewardess is among the cult. When Hurley says that Jacob sent them, the leader (who speaks what I can only assume is un-subtitled Japanese) is intrigued. Hurley offers him the guitar case Jacob had given him - and inside is a big symbol - the symbol that was held by the four-toed statue. Japanese Cult Leader cracks it open to find a piece of paper inside. He says the paper says "If [Sayid] dies we're all in a lot of trouble."

LAX. Customs holds Jin when they find a Rolex and large amounts of cash in his possession which he didn't declare.

Crazy Cult Ceremony. There's some blood involved, and a large pool of water, and an hourglass. The cult forcibly drowns Sayid until he is dead. I kept expecting him to come back to life - and Jack even tried to resuscitate him - but no dice. R.I.P. Sayid? Say it ain't so!

LAX. Kate's running around the airport with her handcuffs covered. She makes it outside, behind Hurley in the taxi line. Just as the Marshal sees her, she runs into a cab - and sits next to Claire.

Temple. Sawyer and Miles have been nabbed by the Cult, and join everyone else at Sayid's side. The Cult Leader, meanwhile, talks to Hurley about Jacob, and learns he is dead. When he hears about this, everyone starts freaking out. They set off fireworks (as a warning, I presume) and start fortifying the Temple to "keep him out."

"Him" being Smokey being "Locke", who tells Ben that he wants to "go home."

LAX. Jack's trying to sort out his lost coffin, while Locke is there sorting out a lost bag full o' knives. Locke offers Jack some comfort, and Jack tells him he's a spinal surgeon and gives him his card.

Beach. Smokey!Locke comes out and punches Richard in the face, carrying him down the beach past Dead!Locke's body.

Temple. Sayid sits up.

OH SNAP! This stuff is definitely giving me a headache, and yet I love every damn second.

Definately wondering where the heck this is going - I am hoping it just doesnt end up being some ewok jungle war, but I doubt it will.

Hmmm, the coffin, and the case of knives....two things integral to what happened in the story so far ... (Jack's Dad being a manifestation of Jacob, and Locke's knives killing said Jacob...)
