On the island, Jack has appendicitis and Juliet saves the day. But we spend most of this episode discussing the flash-forward, in which Jack and Kate appear to be happily raising Aaron together until Hurley and Christian Shephard fan the flames of doubt within Jack, starting him down the path that leads back to the Island. And production designer Jim Newport returns to the show with stories about early plans for the Temple and more.
