A group of government agents is sent in to take over the Dharma Initiative and its remaining renegade scientists, but when they realize that the Dharma initiative has actually succeeded in shielding the island itself from the forces destroying the rest of humanity, they stay behind to continue the project and become the Others. Over time the island's development begins to go awry, prompting the Others to seek test subjects to find out what is going wrong. Governments, business, and others in power select these subjects and arrange for them to be sent to the island on flight 815, intending for it to land safely. The Others realize that humanity can only be saved on the island itself, and try to determine what types of people should and should not be saved. In the end, Michael and Penny rescue the survivors, and the Island takes on a life of its own, as we are left with the realization that the end of humanity has come on the island itself, not in the world as a whole.
