 A recurring theme is Nikki and Paulo's selfishness, which eventually leads to their deaths due to them being greedy and "too focused on their own petty needs to really care about anyone else".The flashbacks of "Exposé" would show how Nikki and Paulo were always on the island by making them appear in important previous events.The scene set after the crash mixes actual scenes and unused footage of the pilot episode, along with new footage shot in the original location of Mokulēʻia beach.
