It's our first Juliet flashback! We revisit some of our favorite questions, including: What's the deal with fertility on the island? Who's there of their own volition, and who is more like a captive? And would Jack really have let ben die on the operating table? Our interview guest this week is the inestimable Néstor Carbonell, who appears in this episode as Richard Alpert.
