Sun has a lot of dirty little secrets. Obviously, she speaks English, a fact her husband didn't know, but how that came about — among other things — is the central focus of the episode. Well, that and the continuing saga that is "Henry Gale from Minnesota."
MAJOR PLOT POINTS
Sun and Jin were trying to start a family before coming to the island. Jin thought it would change everything and force Sun's father, Mr. Paik, to give him a safer job, but the couple has failed to conceive. A fertility specialist tells Sun she has endometriosis and no chance to get pregnant, but later tracks down Sun and confesses that it's Jin who is infertile. Knowing what he does and who he works for, the doctor didn't want to break the news he was shooting blanks worried Jin would bust him up.
Sun, meanwhile, is learning English from Jae Lee, though she insists she never had an affair with him. That's a dubious claim at best. She's actually glad a baby won't be coming, because she wants to leave Jin and make a new life in the United States.
Jin is angry that Sun is working in her garden again alone, so he destroys it and insists she not expose herself to attack anymore. She's unhappy with his decree, but she's also getting sick and goes to Sawyer for a pregnancy test, a Widmore Labs pregnancy test, and enlists Kate's help and support. Turns out, there's a bun in the oven. Out of guilt, Jin replants Sun's garden. She then tells him she's pregnant.
Regarding "Henry," Locke wants Ana Lucia to try her hand at interrogation at "my hatch." She convinces him to draw a map to his balloon and wife's grave. But rather than showing it to Locke or Jack, he takes it to Sayid. The two along with Charlie set off to verify "Henry's" claims. Along the way, Ana Lucia apologizes to Sayid, who blames The Others more than her. He hopes "Henry" is lying, so he'll have an excuse to shoot him. Freed by Jack into the main hatch for breakfast, "Henry" tells Locke and Jack about drawing the map and makes a joke about how he'd be setting a trap for Ana Lucia and whoever went with her is he really were one of The Others.
QUOTABLE
"Jack and Locke are a little too busy worrying about Locke and Jack." — Ana Lucia explaining to Sayid why she came to him with the map instead of Jack
"God, you guys have some real trust issues, don't you." — Ben Linus, posing as Henry Gale, to Jack and Locke upon telling them he map a map to his balloon for Ana Lucia
