D.O.C.
Synopsis
Before you watch
D.O.C. aired on April 25, 2007. Frederick E.O. Toye directed his only Lost episode, and Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz wrote it.
Where things stand: Desmond has had a vision of a parachutist arriving on the Island, and Juliet has joined the main camp, where not everyone is ready to trust her. Sun had surprising news back in the second season, and she has been keeping her own counsel about it.
This is Sun’s episode: she learns the truth about her baby’s father, and the timeline creates a deadly dilemma. Production designer Zack Grobler and his team built a village set from scratch for its backstory, and later showed the official magazine how it was made. Sun and Jin’s story has never been simple, and this one goes to the heart of it.
