Jack tells Boone that he is going to fix this \u2013 that he will save him. But he struggles with the lack of needles, blood, and other things he needs. Sun tells Jack that he can\u2019t save Boone, even if he amputates the leg, since he is bleeding internally, and Jack responds with Locke\u2019s catchphrase, \u201cDon\u2019t tell me what I can\u2019t do.\u201d Eventually Boone lets Jack off the hook from his promise and asks him to let him go.<\/p>\n<p>In flashbacks we see Jack preparing for his wedding. His wife-to-be Sarah tells how she was in a car accident, and how Jack fixed her, calling him her hero. Both Sarah and Jack\u2019s father talk about commitment as characteristic of him.<\/p>\n<p>While Jack is busy taking care of Boone, Claire goes into labor. Kate finds her. Jack is giving blood to Boone and so can\u2019t go. Claire gives birth to a son, and Boone dies.<\/p>\n<p>Shannon was away with Sayid, and so only gets the news the next morning.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the episode, Jack says Boone didn\u2019t die \u2013 he was murdered.
