Meet Kevin Johnson
Synopsis
Before you watch
Meet Kevin Johnson aired on March 20, 2008, the last new episode for five weeks. It was the last script finished before the writers’ strike, and it was filmed while the writers were out. Stephen Williams directed, and Elizabeth Sarnoff and Brian K. Vaughan wrote it.
Where things stand: Sun and Jin have had their side-by-side episode and its twist in the timeline. Daniel and Charlotte have been to the Tempest station, and Juliet has her message from Ben. The freighter is still sitting offshore, and the people on the Island still know very little about who is aboard.
The identity of Ben’s spy on the freighter is revealed, and the episode explains how that person got there. Adam Horowitz later said it had the longest stretch of backstory the show had done up to that point, so expect a lot of time away from the Island. It is a good one to watch slowly.
