Notes: Jack's POV during the final few minutes of "Tabula Rasa," kind of stream-of- consciousness. Not sure how well this one works...
The Marshall's going to die. If we were in a fully equipped, modern emergency room, a first- year resident could save him. Here? No way.
But I can't just kill him. Kate thinks I should, but I'm a doctor, and my head plain doesn't work that way--
What the hell was that? Oh, shit. Ohshitohshitohshit. Dammit, Sawyer, what have you done? The labored breaths from the tent and the expression on that asshole's face say it all. Oh, God. He shot him in the chest? Stupid, stupid, stupid.
So, I throw them out. And I do what needs to be done.
