 Eko is unconscious and dreams about when he and his brother, Yemi, were
kids.They broke into the church pantry to steal food and were caught.He
is told hunger is no excuse to sin and forced to confess.He snaps awake
-- to find Yemi is standing in his tent.Dressed in his priest's collar,
he tells Eko to confess his sins and be judged.
Ben
brings Jack to Colleen's funeral.Jack asks about the x-rays and guesses
that Ben has the tumor.Ben denies it.He then confronts Juliet about it,
but she didn't tell Jack.
Sayid, Jin and Sun return to camp, and
Sayid updates Locke.Locke proposes they go to the Pearl station and use
its computer to contact the Others.He hopes to start a dialogue with
them to get back Jack, Kate and Sawyer.Eko mumbled Yemi's name before
he disappeared, so Locke believes Eko is going to the Nigerian plane
where Yemi's body rests.The plane also happens to be on top of the
entrance to the Pearl station.
Back in Nigeria, after Yemi is killed, Eko is returned to the church.
Eko walks through it, very aware he was responsible for his brother's
death.He finds Yemi's Bible and a photo of them as kids tucked between
its pages.He is interrupted by Amina, who asks about Father Yemi.Eko
tells her he is taking Yemi's place.Amina introduces her son, Daniel,
who is an altar boy in the church.
Outside,
they hear gun shots.It's Emeka and his gang who demand the
vaccine.Amina tells them it'll arrive on Friday.She explains that the
clinic gets ten percent of the vaccine, and Emeka and his gang get the
rest as payment for protection.Eko isn't afraid of Emeka, so Emeka
shoots and kills a random woman.Eko is angry but keeps quiet so he
doesn't blow his cover.Emeka promises to return for the vaccine.
On
the island, Eko stumbles through the jungle, dehydrated and
delirious.He sees Emeka and his men, bloody and butchered.Then he sees
Daniel, who tells him to confess.He stumbles to a stream for
water.While he's drinking, he hears the smoke monster and sees its
reflection looming menacingly behind him.
