In the hatch, Locke is trying to recreate the map he saw on the blast door walls. He’s so into it that he doesn’t even realize the timer is beeping until Jack comes and points it out. I wonder a little if Locke secretly just wanted to test Henry’s assertion that nothing happens if you let the timer run out. After taking care of business there, Jack heads over to change Henry’s bandages. Ana, who’s hanging out with her gun, exposits that Henry hasn’t spoken, eaten, or had anything to drink in two days. Jack tells Henry that he’s calling his bluff – he’s going to trade him for Walt. “They’ll never give you Walt,” replies Henry. I think that if he broke two days of silence for that, he pretty much means it.

In a flashback, Rose is trying to get her car out the snow in an alley, and Bernard is helping her. It’s obviously very recent and we can figure out that this is their first meeting. They get all googly eyed at each other and Rose, modern woman that she is, asks Bernard out. He trips over his tongue accepting her offer. Back on the island, Bernard strides up to Rose, who is trying to unload some “Dharmalars” onto Hurley, who declines due to his diet. Are Dharmalars like Mallomars? That’s pretty funny. And for those of you keeping score at home – and who isn’t, eh? – the number on all the food packages is DI 9FFTR731.

Bernard’s all worked up and sassy and is asking people to meet him at the tree line in five minutes. He has a plan, as he tells Rose with a wink. He seems like a go-getter, that one. Speaking of go-getting (ha?) Jack’s ready to initiate the prisoner swap. Ana gives him her gun to use, but it’s Kate who gets an invitation to go on the sex romp camping trip. Sawyer gets all sulky about this and probably goes off to kick a wall and break his favorite GI Joe.

On a different part of the beach, Bernard’s tying to incite the masses with a rescue plan. He thinks everyone’s given up on being rescued. “How can you say that, of course we want to go home!” says Claire, only she shrieks it, in a way that startled dogs in Australia. Hurley reminds Bernard that a raft had been built and was somewhat less than successful. Bernard makes the excellent point that a plane must have dropped off the food, so they could make themselves visible to other planes. Rose drops by, apparently just to be an enormous bitch – she thinks they need to run the plan by Jack (which, really?) but Bernard counters that Jack isn’t the president, just a doctor. “You’re a dentist,” says Rose. DAMN, woman!
