Kate and Juliet are continuing their trek back to the Other campus. Kate can't hold it in anymore and asks Juliet, "Did he say that to you? That I broke his heart?" Juliet says that he didn't have to. Kate smirks and announces, "You don't know anything about him." Suddenly, Alex Trebek walks out holding a microphone. That's right ladies and gentlemen we are back with our fifth round of You Don't Know Me!: the game show where the Others prove their knowledge of all sorts of survivor trivia! Just two weeks ago, Ben and Locke faced off on this exact same stage and now they are off an amazing Island adventure together! Let's see how Juliet and Kate fare... Juliet launches into a litany of things she knows about Jack. His height and weight are in there. Marital status, reasons for divorce, love of sushi, hatred of English-style ales, fascination with Scottish folklore, his collection of O-Town paraphernalia, death of his father, blood type. It's all there! Juliet is definitely winning this round. And Kate? What do you know about Jack? Kate realizes she is going down this round, but the game is cut short because the monster is after them again. They start to run, but unfortunately they are girls and they trip. Into a giant mud puddle! Super hott! Girl-on-girl handcuffed mud wrestling?!? What will these writers think of next to capture the elusive male 18-35 demographic?
Kate grabs Juliet, and they run more, but Kate stops short as they are about to run headlong into the sonic perimeter fence. Juliet swears it is off, but Kate is not going to risk her head on the word of an Other. She won't budge and insists on running along the fence instead of through it, but the monster is getting closer! Juliet panics, reaches into her pocket, whips out a key, unlocks the hand cuffs and runs through the sonic barrier. She heads for the control box on the fence and types in a code. She tells Kate that she will want to be on the other side of the fence. Kate is stunned and skeptical, but with the monster fast approaching, she has no choice but to cover her head and run through the fence. Juliet turns on the fence as the monster blows up trees and rocks as it makes its approach. Kate ducks into the bushes, but Juliet stands there staring as Smokey the monster appears in front of her. Smokey does not like the fence. It goes all wonky, breaks up into a bunch of Li'l Smokies, and then disappears. Kate is shocked. She glares at Juliet, marches up to her, and shoves her, schoolyard-style. Juliet 'fesses up that they don't know what it is, but they know it doesn't like their fences. Kate is not interested in monster defense mechanisms. She cannot believe that Juliet had a key. The entire time! Juliet tries to explain, "They left me behind too! They gassed me! I know you don't care, but the people I spent the last three years of my life with just left me behind. I know you don't care. But I thought that maybe, if I made you think we were in it together, I wouldn't get left behind again." Kate is still fuming as she grabs the key, unlocks her handcuff, and walks into the woods. Totally leaving Juliet behind. Juliet reaches in to her pocket and pulls out a copy of How To Start A Conversation And Make Friends, flips to her bookmark, and smacks herself in the head as she realizes she totally messed that one up!
