Lost – “The Last Recruit” – Season 6 Episode 13

Another action-packed thrill ride on this week’s episode of Lost. We can clearly tell we’re coming down to the series finale because there was no single character featured on this episode.
It was a smorgasbord with small glimpses of each of the main characters in the episode as well as how their lives would’ve been had they never been on the island.
The John Locke camp and Jack Sheppard and Hugo with their small group have now joined at the beginning of this episode. Charles Whidmore and his crew send out their number 2 as an emissary to John Locke demanding that he return Desmond to them.
So my suspicion that Locke threw him down the well and killed him was incorrect. He sends Sayid out to the well to murder Desmond Hume in cold blood. But Desmond starts talking to Sayid and asking him why he is doing this and what he will tell the woman he loves he had to do in order to be with her again.
This gives Sayid pause and I don’t believe he has killed Desmond. John Locke finds him in the jungle and questions him about whether he pulled the trigger and he says that he did. He even invites Locke to go check to see whether the deed has been done.
John Locke is moving his camp over toward the auxiliary island so that they can get on the plane as they are now all together and can all get off of the island together.
Sawyer has other plans because he doesn’t trust Locke and does trust Charles Whidmore instead.
Sawyer steals the boat that Locke was going to use and takes over only Jack, Kate, Hugo, Lapidus the pilot, and Sun. But Claire ends up following their small group and holds a gun on them so Kate invites her to come along much to Sawyer’s dismay.
Sawyer had told Kate earlier in the episode that Claire has been on the dark side for a long time and that Sayid was nothing more than a zombie who has recently gone over to the dark side so neither of them is invited on this trip.
While on the boat sailing to the smaller island Jack has a crisis of confidence and starts asking himself questions about whether they should be off the island. He asks Sawyer point blank if the John Locke character is so desiring of all of them leaving the island together what if he’s afraid of what will happen should they stay?
There is much intrigue and Jack ends up jumping off the boat because Sawyer demands he get off. Sawyer says it’s time to make a decision “you’re either with us or against us”.
So Jack decides he is going to be against them and leaps out.
Sawyer and his crew make it over to the smaller islands and meet up with Whidmore’s people. But Charles has betrayed them. Right before the betrayal Sun and Jin are finally reunited.
We can definitely tell that the John Locke character is pissed and we’re only left to wonder exactly how he’s going to deal with this treachery and what’s going to happen when the final battle between the supposed good guy Charles Whidmore and the suspected bad guy the Black smoke John Locke character finally lock horns in the final battle.
