Tom walked out of Ben's house and sighed, looking around. He headed down the path and began to prepare for the things at the Hydra station. He was worried about a number of things, and looked around slowly.

As Tom was getting ready to leave for Hyrda, he spotted Juliet's door was ajar. He sighed and walked over there. He had been putting this off for a while, anyway... Ever since Jules called Ben a liar, the guy hadn't been the same. Drama was not something they needed.

Paul was busy with his morning stroll, taking the same path that he had taken for... a long time. Much longer than he'd anticipated. But he supposed it was his own fault. He was capable of much better and the fact remained that his findings thus far had been less than impressive and hardly worthy of being released from the project.
As he passed by Juliet's home, he smiled. Case in point.
The almost utopian existence in the 'village', for lack of a better term, was one of the major impediments to obtaining any observations and conclusions applicable to the betterment of society beyond The Island. He had watched various people enter into Juliet's home and knew their motivations. Cyrus, who craved attention and believed himself to gain it from Juliet. Sofia, whose self-importance led her to clash with Juliet. And Tom, who maintained efficiency and kept the peace when Benjamin was not readily available to do it.
This was, perhaps, the problem. Paul could aggrevate the social clashes between Juliet and Sofia until they became something serious and disruptive. He could then observe to see if anyone intervened of their own volition and undertook peaceful conflict resolution. But Tom or Benjamin would always intervene. Tom had the semblance of authority. Benjamin had real authority. And so no progress would be made from such an under-taking because people with authority would always be the ones to intervene. Paul was looking for some sort of evidence to suggest that a pedagogical system in the outside world could be engineered to instill certain skills and emotions within youth so that if they saw two of their co-workers arguing, they would intervene in a productive matter rather than waiting for 'the boss' to take notice.
It was a fruitless place to focus his research. Altering the situation between Sofia and Juliet would be morally justifiable in most cases. But Juliet was... well, she didn't deserve having something else go wrong for her. It wasn't that he was attracted to Juliet. True, she was beautiful. Amazingly so, even. But it was a sad and distraught kind of beauty. There was an intense sadness there in her voice, her eyes, even her smile. He wanted to research human interaction, not break a fellow member of the project.
He continued along the path, humming a tune that was stuck in his head for some reason. "We're all living in Amerika. Amerika ist wunderbar! We're all living in Amerika, Amerika, Amerika!"

**Paul enters from C3- Gazebo**
He stared up at the sky again as he approached the row of homes. The plane was still continuing its downward descent. There was no way the pilot could recover from it by now. The flight was doomed, but at least it wasn't destined for the sea. It's course would place a good number of fragments from the plane on The Island. There would be survivors.
Paul tried to find Benjamin in the confusion as everyone began to stir from their homes to find the plane falling from the sky.

Just about to go to the book club, she was getting ready. she decided she should go, it was better than staying in the house all day. her head was pounding but she might as well mingle with her some what of friends. just as she opened the door she looked up into the sky to see a plan over head, breaking into peices....
"Shit." A plane? moving down and watching the plane go, as it broke into pieces and crashed.

He exited his house quickly, his eyes darting about quickly for the source of the disturbance.

***Juliet enters***
Still clutching her copy of Carrie, she rushed down the front steps and out into the courtyard, glancing around to see who else was there. She followed their gaze up to the sky to see what appeared to be a passenger plane in distress. But that was impossible. The noise was deafening as the plane proceeded to break apart, leaving brilliant white vapor trails across the sky as it descended to the ground below. How could this happen, and what did it mean for them?

***Entering from Juliet's home with a couple of other 'chicken'***
As Aaron descended the stairs from the porch finally exiting from underneath the awning his eyes snapped toward the clear blue sky and the loud noises. A passenger plane, a big one, long distance obviously, was tumbling through the air leaving cloudy white trails, no sign of engine defect or structural damage ... that was of course until it broke apart in three major pieces. Aaron twitched in surprise and terror not only about the deafening noise but the thought about all the passengers. Once on discovery channel a cute redhead chick was explaining that if a plane crashed in between 45 seconds after take off and 45 seconds before landing chances of survival were practically zero because of the high altitude. It was in that moment when all the citizens of the village were looking up in the sky when Aaron felt like not only the plane but their 'happy' existence, that so many people held on so tight, was breaking apart. And it was in that moment when he saw Ben Linus standing in the middle of the crowd looking up in well disguised fear. Only that his fear was not in the slightest concerning the lives of those above.

He moved past Juliet quickly, ignoring her. He looked up at the skin, not blinking as he saw the metal so many feet in the air tear apart like it was paper, breaking into three seperate pieces and falling. He knew instantly it was time to take action. "Goodwin." he said suddenly, and his head snapped down to face the tall man.

SOFIA
Sofia runs in after back from a walk to The Pala Ferry Dock, she was hoping to find Tom, instead she wasgreeted by everyone glancing up at the sky, she attempted to make conversation with Juliet and pushed her way through
"What the hell is going on Juliet?" she asked in a puzzled way "One minute I'm with Tom talking, the next he's ran off and the ground is shaking!"
Sofia didn't really want to tell Juliet she had promised to be nicer, she's be too embaressed to admit to Juliet she was in the wrong, she glanced at Ben talking to Goodwin, then at Paul-the strange guy who she didn't know that well, she realised just how little she knew people on the island.
"Well, did you hear me I asked what's happened?" Sofia shouted

"Well, did you hear me I asked what's happened?"
Juliet sighed and looked from the sky down at the demanding brunette. A plane crash was pretty hard to overlook, wasn't it? "It seems we have visitors," she said plainly, pointing upwards.
She glanced over at Ben, who had effortlessly shifted into order-issueing mode. "You should talk to Ben, see if you can get on the welcoming committee," she offered. "Use those well-honed people skills."

Paul had found himself a fair distance away from the main body of the group as they stared up at the plane. Moving towards Ben while simultaneously keeping his full attention on the terrible sight in the sky was a bit awkward and he decided to focus on where he was going before he walked into someone else or stumbled over his own feet.
He spotted Juliet not too far outside of her home with the rest of The Book Club. Apparently she was in a bit of a half-conversation with one of the newer arrivals- Sofia.
Juliet was valuable, important. To the project, that is. So the likelihood that she would be sent out of The Village on an assignment was unlikely. Her strategic value placed her as an asset best kept here, rather than being risked in a potentially hostile environment. But, as for Paul, he would be insisting to be sent. The potential to learn would be an opportunity that he could not pass up. And there would no doubt be people surviving the crash who would need help. Paul had the skills to render that help. Perhaps even save some lives.
On that line of thought, Paul believed it best to say his farewell now rather than just offering an awkward glance and a wave in her direction before being sent out to do whatever task Ben would have for him. Juliet and Paul were friends. How could they not be? They'd been here on this island for a good three years. Paul wasn't exactly part of the Book Club. But he'd enjoyed some thoughtful conversations with her when he wasn't trying to figure out what her loyalties to the project were.
He stopped by her in the crowd and waited for a break in the conversation between her and Sofia. "Hey. Take care of yourself. Ben's probably going to have me heading out to look for survivors." He held eye contact for a moment longer than usual. "Try to relax."
He lingered for a moment to make sure she had heard and understood what he had said before carving a path toward Benjamin in the crowd to hear his instructions and, if necessary, lobby to be sent to the crash sites.

SOFIA
Sofia noticed the conversation with Paul, and resisted the temptation to make a remark about how she had every man on the island crawling after her, but she had to keep her promise.
"I would offer to go Juliet, but looks like Linus has already got enough people, with Tom gone, Goodwin, Ethan, Cyrus and Paul they don't want me tagging along, and who'd be there to attend your Book club?" she said sarcastically
"Anyway if they really need someone they could ask Pickett or Col, or any of the others, why would they want me? You see we need to look out for eachother now Juliet because now there here, it's us against them!" she smiled

"Hey. Take care of yourself. Ben's probably going to have me heading out to look for survivors...Try to relax."
She nodded and offered him a weak smile. She was already concerned about whatever assignment awaited Goodwin, and now Paul was eager to venture into the unknown. Ethan still hadn't returned from his hunting trip, but must have seen the plane crash or at least felt the earth tremble beneath them. Her allies were dwindling. Not exactly ideal conditions for relaxing, but she knew Paul wouldn't be satisfied unless he was actively engaged in the study of people. And studying these people for the last three years must have become increasingly tiresome. More than anyone else, he needed the change of scenery.
"Anyway if they really need someone they could ask Pickett or Col, or any of the others, why would they want me? You see we need to look out for eachother now Juliet because now there here, it's us against them!"
Juliet folded her arms across her chest, still clutching her book. "Sofia, if that's the way you view this situation, then you really should talk to Ben. Have some coffee and talk about your shared xenophobic tendencies," she remarked, shifting her attention back to Ben.

***Cyrus enters***
He kept his head up, still searching the sky. He squinted at the bright sun, and when the plane disappeared from view, he looked down, his eyes moving from Juliet to Goodwin to Ben.

SOFIA
Sofia frowned at Juliet but tried to control her temper
"And meanwhile, what will you be doing? Tending to Amelia? Burning more muffins?"
Sofia then remembered what Tom had told her about how Juliet was liked and what she was doing. She quickly diverted the conversation
"You know that's not a bad idea Juliet, I'll talk to Ben later " she smiled
She walked away but stopped mid-way
"Oh but Juliet the next time you refer to me as having xenophobic tendancies, I won't react as kindly!" she said in a serious tone and muttered in Greek.

Karli
She could hardly believe it, no one ever came here. How did they...? with a sigh she placed her book on the porch and sighed, she watched the plane split and for a moment she wondered what would happen, she wondered what would happen? Mostly what would Ben do?
