Soulmates [Sawyer & Juliet] #152: "But that's the thing about love: In the end, he caught her." - EW

152;



J a m e s Ford J u l i e t Burke

appreciation thread



spectacular. conscious. altering. love.




"Kudos to Josh Holloway and Elizabeth Mitchell for
selling us on the
best romance Lost has ever given us."




Dr. Juliet Burke was a top notch Fertility doctor. After successfully impregnating her sister Rachel, the others recruited her. She was promised that she could leave in six months so she could be home in time for Rachel to give birth. However, Ben would not let her leave. She had been on the island for three years when Oceanic Flight 815 crashed.

James “Sawyer” Ford was a young boy when a con man named Sawyer took his parents money. He then became a con man himself and spent the better part of his life searching for the real “Sawyer”. He was on his way back from Australia on a lead about the real “Sawyer” when the plane crashed.




Their first meeting was definitely not love at first sight; Juliet tasered James trying to escape Hydra Island. When the island started skipping through time they became friends and allies. When they got stuck in the 70’s, Juliet had the chance to leave the island just like she always wanted. James asked her to stay for two weeks. Juliet gave him three years.



"Alright. T w o w e e k s ."



Juliet finally got to do what she never had been able to on the island; she got to deliver a baby. James was incredibly proud of her and thought she did an amazing job; Juliet thanked him for believing in her. It became clear that sometime in those three years they fell in love. They trade “I love you’s”.



"”I loveyou”-“I love you too."



When their friends come back, things start to fall apart. When Ben is shot, Juliet cannot fix him so James brings Ben to the others. When Kate asks why he tells her “I’m doing it for her.” Juliet and James are under suspicion from Dharma about what actually happened to Ben. James is beaten while Juliet, being tied up, is helpless to watch. When James would not tell them where their friends are, Phil punches Juliet to get James to talk. He immediately agrees to tell them if they will put him and Juliet on the sub. While on the dock waiting to get on the sub James tells her that he wishes that she had gotten on the sub three years ago, Juliet responds that she is glad he talked her out of it. Once on the sub Juliet tells James that she loves him and he tells her “I love you back.”



"”Glad you talked me out of it.”."



They go back to the island to prevent Jack from detonating the hydrogen bomb. During their time back on the island James glances at Kate and Juliet changes her mind thinking that he does not truly want to be with her, telling him “If I never meet you, then I never have to lose you.” What she did not know is that he was planning to propose

At the swan site Juliet is suddenly being dragged down the hole by chains because of the site’s strong electromagnetic properties. James holds onto her for dear life. While Juliet is telling him that she loves him, James tells her to hold on and that he has her. She sees that that the scaffolding that James is on is starting to come apart, yet he refused to let her go. She then lets go herself, telling him one last time how much she loves him. James is devastated by the loss.



"”Don’t you l e t g o.”



After the white flash, everyone is brought back to 2007, where Juliet is found to be alive underneath the remains of the blown up hatch. James and their friends work hard to get to her. When they are finally able to make a big enough opening in the twisted wreckage, James goes down to get her. She is found in bad shape. She tells him that she hit the bomb because she wanted him to be able to go home. They kiss one last time. As she lay dying in James arms she mumbles about them getting coffee sometime and that they “can go Dutch.” She then succumbs to her injuries and passes away. James is completely beside himself with grief having just lost the true love of his life once again.



"”Kiss me J a m e s .”-“You got it B l o n d i e."



James stays behind to bury Juliet and asks Miles to help him. As they finish he asks Miles to find out what Juliet wanted to tell him. Miles then tells James that her last thoughts were ““it worked.

After James escapes the temple he heads back towards the house he and Juliet shared in the Dharma Barracks. He gets the ring that he was going to propose to her with. At the docks James blames himself for Juliet’s death saying that he asked her to stay because he did not want to be aloneHe then throws the ring in the water and goes back to the only home he ever knew, though now broken just like his heart and soul.



"”I was gonna ask her to ma r r y me .”



Later on, The MIB finds James who has reverted back to Sawyer after his beloved’s death, clearly heartbroken and very drunk trying to ease the pain. Promising answers James follows the MIB. When the MIB explains about Jacob’s replacements and why he was brought to the island he say James has three options. The MIB asks if he’s ready to go home, James remembering Juliet’s words saying she wanted him to be able to go home he answers “Hell yes.”

When Jin and Sun were reunited after three years James had to look away, it was a reminder what he had with Juliet and would never get back and it crushed him. When James left the island the last thing he looked at was the island the only place where he ever had a real family. Once they both died they went to the sideways. They did not remember anything and had very different lives. James was a cop and Juliet has a son.

When James goes to check on Sun who was Juliet’s patient, they meet when James had his hand in the vending machine trying to get a candy bar out after it got stuck. They flirt and Juliet tells James that if he unplugs and then plugs the machine back in the candy will come out. She takes the candy bar out of the slot and tells him “it worked”. When she hands the candy to James their hands touch and they see flashes of their life together.



"”Did you f e e l that ?”



Juliet tells James that they should get coffee sometime. He tells her “I’d love to but that machine ate my dollar, I only have one left.” Juliet tells him “we can go Dutch.” She touches his hand and they get even more memories. They are both shocked. James cannot believe it is really her, shock evident on his face at seeing her and knowing they have another chance. They embrace and James tells her “I gotcha baby” They then have a spectacular kiss, wanting to really feel each other and know that this is real.






The last time we see them, they're in the church with their friends, and Juliet wearing an engagement ring. We see them so blissful, holding hands, and so content. The sideways was a place they all made together so they could find one another. As Christian said “The most important part of your life, was the time that you spent with these people. That’s why all of you are here.” The best years of both James and Juliet’s lives were together in the 70’s, living a blissful, happy, life. Now that they are ready; with one another they can now move on and be together for eternity.
