Also--Hasn't anyone on the internet done the legwork on what Jack's tattoos mean? He is of us, but not one of us? The meaning regarding the Others is obvious, perhaps as well as his role on the beach. A leader is never really one of the rest of the crowd--but at the end, Jack says that't not what it means. Aargh.
I also think there's more to Sawyer's letting the kid go than he let on.

Yep. Jack didn't have any tatoos during his marriage, and he was on the plane to bring his dad's body back to the states. And I, in case you haven't noticed, have no problem deciding that Kate should be with Sawyer. I really hated how Jack treated her last season and that she didn't stand up for herself with him the way she did with Sawyer this episode. (And I think Jack and Juliet have great chemistry. Juliet seems to bring out his good points.) Jack passing Juliet in the hallway wasn't a coincidence, they were putting her in his aquarium cell. I've heard a bit about Jack's tatoos before. I think they were supposed to mean "Eagle striking sky" or something like that. I noticed Jack didn't get all his tatoos from the girl, though. A lot of people really hated this ep. Even the script editor who answers peoples questions at the fuselage could only bring himself to say it was "okay." According to people who've seen it, the next episode is much better.

Fishbiscuit\'s Review. No easter eggs this time, but the review of the flashback scenes almost make the flashback worth watching. Almost. Here\'s A really good post about Jack's tatoos.

Oh I know, but the fact that the Others should choose that time for her to be moved? It just seems like he's been manipulated to intentionally get a glimpse of these people as he's being led around, I'm just thinking out loud as to why. What could be behind these intentionally set up sightings.

Well, there's also the fact this is a tv show, and everything is coordinated. Maybe they just wanted to show the connection between Jack and Juliet a little more, help reinforce it in the viewers minds.
I think the explanation of the tattoo was more character development for Jack than any clues or hidden meanings. It's a cool looking tat, and it gives more pathos to our hero.
At this point, they need to give more to our other heroes. The Jack/Kate/Sawyer thing needs to be played down for a good long while.
Just spouting off.

I'm a little put off by the shoehorning of the tattoos Fox already had into the storyline. Man, those people on the Lost thread make us look like a bunch of pikers. They're taking that stuff SERIOUSLY.

It's something else, isn't it? You should see the shipper wars. :rolleyes:
A lot of people are angry about the American promo that announced "three of Lost's biggest mysteries will be solve." Last I checked there was an 11 page thread trying to figure out what they were. It's all ABC's fault, though. The creators tried to warn people on the last podcast that it was just about Jack's tatoos, but I guess the word didn't get out.

Yeah! That's was pretty cool. Not a lot of plot advancedment, but a really fun episode that filled in bits of Hurley's past.

I dug it too!!! Hurley was like our own Litte Mr. Sunshine... It was awesome to see everyone on the beach for more than a scene or two. Next week looks to be even better, with the surprising return of ____________.

That was really like a vintage episode, wasn't it? I was really glad to see Rousseau again.
You may have heard the phrase "if you want a beer real bad, here's a real bad beer." Sawyer must have wanted a beer really, really bad.
"Red... Neck... Man." Hurley's got to work on his knicknames. Still, it was a nice effort.

Maybe Hurley needs more beer. Sawyer seemed impressed anyway. I hope Somebody's realized that this kind of cast interaction is what made the show so great. I loved the look on Sawyer's face when he realized they drank his very expensive whiskey. And this was such a vast improvement for Charlie. I was afraid he'd be moping around for weeks. This ep is major character development for Hurley. Ever since we've known him he's assumed he was cursed; now he's talking about making his own luck. Oh, and Vincent is back. All and all it was like season one again. Well, except for Sawyer almost being nice.

Best ep of the season so far. Sawyer's funny/cruel nicknames are back! "Dude!" Cheech! "Hippie car!" Funny jokes with corpses! Men drinking together! A minor triumph leading to the general lifting of spirits! Crazy French lady!
Hey, by the way, what DOES Sawyer have to apologize for? And is there any evidence that Alex is Rousseau's kid, other than general assumption?

LOL I knew one of you guys was going to ask what Sawyer did! Men all over the net are asking. Okay, it's two things: 1. He was really domineering last episode, which is strange from him. I put it down to exhaustion, and I think that's why it bugged Kate. 2. He told her she only had sex with him because she thought he was going to die. I don't know what guys hear in that, but girls tend to hear "pity lay", "easy" and even "slut". If you look at the expression on Kate's face when he says it, you can tell she's pretty horrified. Rousseau said she had a 16 year old kid named Alex, and I think she said it was a girl, other than that it's just assumption.

Well, the leading theory is that Ben raised her after kidnapping her, and isn't her biological father, but it remains to be seen...
I've heard a rumor that a friend of a certain poster on this thread will be joining the cast of Lost...

I heard that, too, EDE. Should be interesting.
Rousseau said she killed her child's biological father, IIRC.

Yeah, it's something like she's not a crash survivor, not an other, not a flashback character, etc. The basic point seems to be that she's on the island, but must be from a completely different group from anything we've seen before.

Yes, that's the one I was thinking of. My theory at the moment is that she's the personification of the island. That or she works for Penny.
