I think Jack was planning on his...plan...for the surgery for quite some time.Locke will see...who knows what.
Nah.
And also a few questions of my own:
Is Ben honestly letting Jack do surgery on him, or are the Others somehow managing to set it up to look that way or something?
Are they really on a separate island, or can Kate and Sawyer effectively run if they got the chance?
And probably a few more that I can't think of right now.
das.
