"The Other 48 Days" is the 32nd episode of Lost. It is the seventh episode of the second season. The episode was directed by Eric Laneuville, and written by Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse. It first aired on November 16, 2005, on ABC.
Unlike in previous episodes, where the flashbacks focused on events leading up to the crash, "The Other 48 Days" centers around the backstory of the tail-section characters, showing the events leading up to "Abandoned".
After the tail section of the plane crashes into the water off the beach, the survivors swim ashore. Mr. Eko pulls a young girl (Emma) out of the water, and Ana Lucia Cortez performs CPR on her, saving her life. Ana and Eko then go to aid more people, leaving the girl and her brother in the care of Cindy Chandler. Libby helps a man, later to be identified as Donald, by setting his broken leg. A man runs out of the jungle asking for help, saying there's someone alive in the jungle. The man, "Goodwin", brings Ana to Bernard, who is still belted into his airplane seat, stuck up in a tree. Ana coaxes him to grab the tree branch, just before the seat crashes to the ground. Back on the beach, Goodwin, who claims to be in the Peace Corps, builds a signal fire.
That night, three of the adults are taken and Eko kills two of the "Others" with a rock when they try to take him. From that night on, he refuses to speak. Despite this incident, nobody organizes shifts to guard the group.
