S6: The Package

The writers tricked me.  I thought that an episode featuring both Jin and Sun would lead towards their reunion, but it appears that I was wrong, which is a good thing because it's nice to be surprised when watching these episodes a second time.

In Locke camp, not much is going on there.  They are just hanging out and Zoe from Widmore's camp takes it upon herself to kidnap Jin.  At the beach camp, there isn't much going on there either.  They are waiting for Richard.  Meanwhile, Locke meets up with Sun and tries to recruit her but he fails.  So not only do these two soul mates not cross paths, they actually go farther apart in distance now that Jin is on Hydra island.

In the flash sideways, our happy couple is not married but fooling around behind Sun's father's back.  Mr. Paik is on to them, closes Sun's bank account and send Jin on an errand to deliver a watch and money to the Keamy, the hitman, not knowing that the money is payment for Keamy to kill Jin.  But having already seen Sayid's story, we know what happens to Keamy, and thankfully for Jin, Sayid hands him a box cutter before leaving.

So moving the plot forward, it's time for Widmore's group to use "the package" aka Desmond.  He has something important to do with the electromagnetic properties of the island that Zoe seems interested in since that's why she took Jin in the first place.  Thankfully, Richard comes back and he has a plan which is to destroy the plan so Locke/MIB can't leave.  And Sayid is on a covert operation on Hydra island for Locke/MIB.  So the chess pieces are being put in place and we'll see which ones move in the next episode.
