Official Description
The official description is: Rose is surprisingly and vehemently opposed to Bernard's plan to create an S.O.S. signal; romantic sparks are rekindled between Jack and Kate when they trek into the jungle to propose a "trade" with "The Others"; and Locke begins to question his faith in the island.
Plot
In the first flashback we see Rose's car being stuck in the snow. Bernard appears and helps her get it out of the snow by pushing it from behind. As Rose and Bernard are about to leave, Rose invites to buy him a coffee for his trouble. In the next flashback we see Bernard proposing to Rose. She tells him that she is sick and that she is dying. He insists that she still answer his question. She says yes.
The next flashback shows them on their honeymoon in Australia where Bernard takes her to see Isaac of Uluru, a faith healer who may be able to help Rose with her sickness. At first she refuses to go in because she does not want false hope, but Bernard then insists that she should do it for him. Isaac, however, is unable to help Rose because the "energy" at the location is "not right for Rose." He is willing to give back the donation of $10,000 made by Bernard but she tells him to keep the money, as she has decided to tell Bernard that Isaac "fixed" her so that Bernard would stop trying to save her life.
Bernard wants to write "SOS" in the sand using a number of black rocks with the help of other survivors on the island. He assembles a group and tries to explain why this is necessary. Rose yells at Bernard because he accuses the survivors of having lost hope and is angry with Bernard because she feels that he is "always trying to do something", and reveals to him that she had lied about Isaac. Additionally, it is revealed that Mr. Eko and Charlie are building a church when they refuse to help Bernard with his SOS signal. Bernard lacks management skills and continues to go mental about how people need to get things right in order that a satellite or plane will notice the SOS signal. We see Jin, the last person left, leave after Bernard angrily reprimands him for placing the black rocks incorrectly.
Locke seems to start losing all his faith in the island as he seems to believe Henry that the numbers and the buttons do nothing. He asks Henry again if he actually did enter the numbers and pressed execute, and all we see is a grin on Henry's face. He then leaves the hatch for a while to sit by the ocean, when Rose appears; Rose says that the wound Locke suffered from the hatch door will heal quickly despite the fact that Jack told him it would take weeks. In a flashback, we see Rose drop a bottle of pills on the floor at the airport in Sydney about to leave on the fateful flight and makes eye contact with Locke, in a wheelchair, who picks it up and returns it to her. Rose hints that the two survivors have something in common as a result of the island's healing powers.
Jack wants to make a switch for Walt by giving The Others the man who calls himself Henry Gale. Henry says that they would never give him Walt (this is the only thing he says all episode). Having been given a gun by Ana-Lucia, Jack leaves the hatch, goes to get Kate, and treks into the jungle to go meet the Others at the drawn line. Sawyer feels left out when Jack and Kate trek into the jungle. At one point, Kate sees a doll and despite Jack's warnings she grabs it, trapping both her and Jack into one of Rousseau's traps.
There is a sexually charged scene when they are both trapped, pressed together, in the hanging net. Kate takes out Jack's gun and tries to shoot the rope holding them up but misses; Jack tries and succeeds. They continue their trek to the line where Kate was held hostage and was warned not to cross, Jack shouts out for The Others to appear. Nobody appears, and Jack insists they set up camp until they appear; romantic sparks are exchanged and just as they are about to kiss. they hear the sound of someone running in front of them. An exhausted Michael with a torch runs and falls into Jack's arms.
As the episode ends, we see Jin caressing Sun's stomach and their new baby, Hurley sharing a cute shadow-puppet moment with Libby, Claire playing with her baby, and Locke going back to work on drawing the image that appeared on the hatch door during the episode "Lockdown"
