FLASHBACK SUMMARY:

An island flashback: Claire remembers what happened to her when she was abducted.

Claire remembers spending time inside the Caduceus hatch, and being examined by Ethan. Claire is clearly disoriented, perhaps drugged. She speaks of her
pregnancy and the baby as though she has not yet left Australia, and is still planning on giving him up for adoption. Ethan serves as her confidant and friend,
showing her the nursery, assuring her that "they" will take care of the baby and that "they" are a good family. He also administers a mysterious drug via injection
into her belly on a apparent regular basis.

We do have two glimpses of the Others (besides Ethan): once when Mr. Friendly, sans beard and raggedy clothes, appears to scold Ethan for not completing
his list; and again when a young woman comes to Claire's room in the middle of the night. The young woman urges a reluctant Claire to leave as quickly as she can.
She shows Claire an operating room, filled with doctors prepared to do ... something. She tells Claire that they plan on taking the baby and letting Claire die.
She rushes Claire out of the hatch, where Claire is discovered by Danielle. As Ethan and the Others search for Claire in the jungle, Danielle helps Claire escape...very much against Claire's will.
