Claire, revealed to be Jack's half-sister, to a concert. While waiting in line for the event, Juliet receives a page from the hospital and departs. Later at the hospital, Juliet notices Sawyer fishing a candy bar from a vending machine. She suggests unplugging and plugging it back in and once it is free, she remarks, "It worked" - her original dying words. When Juliet passes Sawyer the candy, they experience vision-like flashes of their past. She tells Sawyer, "We should get coffee sometime... we can go Dutch." This mirrors their conversation before Juliet died in Sawyer's arms indicating that as she was passing, her consciousness was already meeting Sawyer again in this "flash sideways reality".

Juliet, now wearing her engagement ring, makes her way to the church with Sawyer where they gather with the other former denizens of the Island. As Christian Shephard (John Terry) opens the church doors, a glowing white light flows in and Juliet and Sawyer move on to the afterlife together as soulmates.
