** The penultimate episode of season 3 has Locke lying in the "corpse pit", unable to move is legs. He gets hold of a revolver, and considers shooting himself when Walt shows up at the edge of the pit, urging him to get on with his purpose.

When Sayid dismisses him as a suspect due to his alibi of setting off a flare miles away seconds before Sayid was attacked in order, Locke points out that Sawyer, an avid smoker, could have used a cigarette to create a fuse that would set off the flare with him needing to be physically present. It turns out that Sawyer is completely innocent, and Locke was the real attacker.
