Lost - 2/11/09 Episode "This Place is Death" Recap  2/12/09

In late 2007, following the events of the previous episode, "The Little Prince", Sun-Hwa Kwon (Yunjin Kim) confronts Benjamin Linus (Michael Emerson) during his meeting with Kate Austen (Evangeline Lilly), Jack Shephard (Matthew Fox) and Sayid Jarrah (Naveen Andrews). She intends to kill him, however, he reveals to her that her husband, Jin-Soo Kwon (Daniel Dae Kim), is still alive on the island. She reluctantly agrees to go with him and Jack to another location, where he can substantiate his claims. They go to a church, where Ben shows her Jin's wedding ring, which Ben took from Locke as proof that Jin is alive. Desmond Hume (Henry Ian Cusick) arrives at the church, in his search for Daniel Faraday's (Jeremy Davies) mother, Eloise Hawking (Fionnula Flanagan). The four go inside the church, where Eloise is disappointed that Ben did not bring the rest of the Oceanic Six.

The group is on their way to the Dharma Initiative Orchid Station, where Locke believes he can find a way to leave the island in his attempt to bring the Oceanic Six back to the island. Several time jumps occur and Charlotte becomes so ill that she must stay behind with Daniel. She tells Locke to look for a well, if the Orchid station is not there. Later, she confesses to Daniel that she grew up on the island and that before she left a man told her never to come back or she would die; she believes Daniel is that man. She dies shortly after. The other survivors arrive at the location of the Orchid and find the well. Jin tells Locke to tell Sun that he died and gives Locke his wedding ring as proof because he does not want Sun or their child to return to the island. While descending the well, Locke falls and injures his leg, arriving in the frozen chamber with the wheel that Ben used to move the island in "There's No Place Like Home". Jack's deceased father, Christian Shephard (John Terry) greets Locke and tells him that he meant for Locke to move the island in the first place. Locke then pushes the wheel and leaves the island.
