Summary: The story of Shakespeare's Othello with a Lost twist.
CHARACTER LIST:
Jack as Othello, the main character who marries the woman of his dreams and has his world destroyed by an unlikely foe.
Flocke/MiB as Iago, a twisted old man hell-bent on wreaking havoc and manipulating the people around him, especially Jack/Othello.
Kate as Desdemona, an innocent young woman who is cruelly caught in Flocke/Iago's lies.
Charlie as Roderigo, a sweet young man lovesick for Kate/Desdemona's affections.
Desmond as Cassio, Kate's close friend who Flocke/Iago accuses of having an affair.
PLOT (spoilers):
Jack and Kate get married on the island, much to Charlie's dismay, but Flocke comes up with a plan to help ease Charlie's pain. All he has to do is kill Desmond, and then he will make all his wildest dreams come true. Charlie confronts Desmond, preparing to kill him, but Desmond fights back and wounds him. Thinking he's killed Charlie, Desmond flees but Flocke saves him, tells him he's proud of his attempts, and then kills him himself . Meanwhile, Flocke has also been filling Jack's head with graphic images of Kate's cheating with her close friend Desmond, showing Jack the ring he gave to her, tossed carelessly in to the dirt. Furious, Jack overhears Desmond's guilt over killing Charlie and assumes he is guilty because of his affair with Kate. Fully intent on killing Desmond, Jack storms down to the hatch only to witness Desmond's suicide. Satisfied that he is dead, Jack goes to confront Kate whom he beats and kills.
After Kate's death, Jack realises he's been played and then confronts Flocke, killing him. Jack, wounded, limps off towards the Bamboo Forest to die.
