Juliet is making a new tent when Sun comes up to her. She asks why she is setting up a tent if they are to be rescued soon. Just then Jack arrives asking if anyone has seen Daniel or Charlotte. Jin says that he saw them walk into the jungle, and then he said he didn't mention about it because "Jack said they are friends". Jack and Juliet head into the jungle to search for them.

As Juliet walks through the jungle, she starts to herhear whispers. heShe turns around, and sees Harper, her therapist when she first arrived on the Island. She says that Ben told her to tell Juliet that Daniel and Charlotte are heading to the Tempest, and she must stop them at all costs, because if they figure out how to release the gas, everyone will die. She then says that Ben is currently in a position where he wants to be. Jack appears, and sees her, and asks who she is. She says she is an old friend of Juliet's and is telling her where to find the people they are looking for. The whispers are heard again, and she disappears.

Daniel and Charlotte are by a stream, looking at a map of the Island. Daniel has doubts over wherewhether he can accomplish his mission. Kate appears, and Charlotte points her gun at her. Daniel says to put the weapon down, because she is not a threat. Kate asks what they are doing in the jungle, and Charlotte says the batteries in the satellite phone had ran out, and they were looking for some. Kate sees the phone in the bag with a green light on and gets suspicious. She look inside the bag, and finds gas masks, and at that moment, Charlotte knocks her out.

Jack and Juliet walk in the jungle discussing about Harper. Juliet says that she was her therapist, and the comments they shared should be kept a thing of the past. Jack says she knows everything about his past in a file, and Juliet says that he would not want to see her file.

Claire goes to Locke, who is cleaning a rabbit, and requests that she speaks with Miles, because she wants to know who they are and where they came from. Locke does not allow this, and reminds her of what Charlie said about the boat. Claire says that all Charlie said was who's boat it wasn't, and she wants to find out who's boat it is.

Locke brings Ben new clothing and food. Ben asks if the rabbit being served to him had a number on it. Before Locke leaves, Ben asks if the "revolution" has begun yet. He says that if Locke makes a bad move, his followers will create an insurrection against him. Ben starts talking about leadership, but Locke stops by mentioning the $3.2 million. Locke sarcastically gives Ben a dollar. Ben then persuades Locke to let him live in a house, given that Ben reveals some information that Locke wants.
