Sounds that way to me, too. There's an article in the new Lost magazine where Evangeline Lilly says she's glad the writers are making Kate stronger. (Just read it like, two minutes ago.)

More of a 'set-up' espisode than anything else, but still pretty groovy! I'm glad the show is back, and now have a real reason not to go out on Wed nights again!

I hear you though Arachne...

So what do you guys think about the male field mouse getting pregnant? A sign of things to come? laugh

There's lots of theories that Kate's going to get pregnant. Maybe she's not the one who has to worry.

It felt more like it should've been the last episode of the mini-season more than the first episode of the second part of the season, but other than that it was generally awesome!

But I'll be especially glad to get back to the beach party next time!

Yeah, this felt more like the epilouge to the Fall season...

Kate gets more fiesty that she has been in a while, and I liked it. I'm surprised at this week's POV character, but good to get some backstory on her.

So do you guys think that Ben is really Alex's dad, or is it just that she was raised to believe that?

If he really is, then that puts Ben's "capture" by Rousseau in a whole new light.

Did anyone watch the Lost Survivor Guide that was on before the show? Our DVR recorded it but we haven't watched either yet. Is it worth 42 minutes of my time?

Not unless you just feel like you need a recap.

I think it's kind of interesting to watch these things just to see which plot elements they emphasize, and this one had the advantage that it was hosted by Lindelof and Cruse, who I usually find to have a somewhat entertaining dynamic, but there wasn't that much banter between them tonight.

I'm thinking we missed one or two episodes as we got caught up this last week. So if this covered just this season then it may help. Especially since mom is home now and didn't get to see most of the first half of the season's episodes.

Wouldn't she have known his name in that case?

I'm much more attached to Juliet after this episode.

I loved Sawyer and Kate's little con. I also loved Sawyer's expression when he found out Kate wasn't really conning. smile

"Don't blame me...you're the one that fell for the old Wookie prisoner gag..." - Sawyer

Best line of the episode, possibly of the season so far laugh

Oh, is that what he said? I didn't make out the Wookie part. My recorder malfunctioned, so I couldn't rewatch. frown

I know chances are I'm over-analyzing this but I thought that the guy she shot on the beach (Pickett?) was going to get up at the end.

[Linked Image]

I really thought that he, Juliette and the leader's daughter were gonna say something ominous like "it's done" or something, meaning they just sent a brainwashed time-bomb into the Lost survivors camp.

[Linked Image]

Could the whole "escape" with the daughter and her boyfriend be one big ruse this whole time including her appearances in Sawyer and Kate's cells? If she's anything like her father it wouldn't really surprise me.

[Linked Image]

Not a bad episode this time around. Some questions answered, some raised. At least now we know Juliette is as much a prisoner as Jack.

Ben's not Alex's father. The french woman named her baby Alex before the Other's kidnapped the kid.

The brainwashing's interesting. I had a crazy theory that Kate was being brainwashed by the guy she thought was her father and that that's why she goes psycho every now and then.

That's assuming that we can believe anything that Rousseau says, a lot of which seems to be inconsistent or implausible.

True. On the other hand we know the Other's wanted Aaron, and they need a fertility expert for some reason.

I don't think they'd do it, but the look on Sawyer's face if he ends up pregnant would be *priceless* laugh

One thing that's bugging me is that before we saw them, the Others seemed a lot more formidable. I understand a lot of that was trickery, but they seemed a lot more adept at disappearing into the jungle and not leaving trails, NOT stepping on twigs to give away their position, etc (not to mention being stronger unless Ethan's just a freak).

I really hope there's no male pregnancies (unless Jack starts to annoy me again), but it'd serve Sawyer right. smile Might make a good fanfic.

There's still a lot we don't know about the Other's, I think. They might be a lot more formidable when Ben's life's not on the line.

Anyone read lips by the way? I'm not taking Juliet's word about what was said between her and Ben. So we saw Ben speaking a little...I've a feeling lipreaders may've gotten something important (or at least contrary to Juliet's account) out of those snippets.

I was thinking the same thing about lipreading. Someone has to have translated it somewhere! I was really hoping for a lot more from this ep--it didn't really go very far. I just knew when Juliet said "...get hit by a bus" that would be exactly what happened. Stronger Kate? All that freaking blubbering on the radio with Jack? Season One Kate would have been a lot calmer--and even though they said it on the review show, I don't think she's really in love with Jack. She would have to know on some level that Jack could never accept her, knowing she had been with Sawyer. She's made her choice.

Yeah, I wasn't too happy with the "Kate loves Jack" bit. I really hate it when what the creators say doesn't match what I see. I thought the walkie-talkie bit was over the top, too. Funny how Jack gets calmed down by a story of his own magnificence, though. smile Jack and Kate was a bad idea right form the start, IMO. They bring out the worst in each other. I get pretty sick of Jack yelling at Kate and Kate begging for forgiveness and trying to be someone she's not. Sawyer lets her be herself.
