A good point. I hadn't considered that though it wouldn't explain Sayid getting hit last week. (Not that this show explains everything) Polar bears anyone?

Loved it! Especially the "Jedi moment" comment. And Sun is looking better and better each week. Loved her smile at the end when she was treating Shannon. That was some hot kiss between Kate and Sawyer. Damn, I have the fucking inhalers Kate!

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Kate's vicious elbow crack across Sawyer's face when he admitted he didn't have the inhalers. She didn't even wait for him to finish his sentence.

I found the whole Sawyer story to be lacking. So someone screwed his parents over when he was younger, and it screwed him up. I get that. But why become a sadist? Why let yourself get tortured for no reason? Just doesn't really make sense to me.

A pre-plane crash "Sawyer" had a change of heart when he saw the young boy - which reminded him of his own past and what he had become.
With surviving the plane crash, it seems that he has decided that he has been given a second chance to be hated and despised, which would be his way of punishing himself for what he had become.
Damn, I love this show.

That is kinda the vibe I got as well, before I read what he actually said here.

Charlie moving in on Crocadile Preggie, Kate moving on from Jack, if I were shipwrecked I'd be terrified of being left out of the shuffle. On the mainland you can always say "more fish in the sea," but on an island with like a max of half a dozen single women, you've got to strike. I think in flashback #2 for Jack we find out he's got the gay.

They can't give the backstory on Hurley. He's the T-Rex. How do you think he hasn't lost any wait since he's been on the island?

Count me in with the people who thought this was a so-so, meh backstory. Why was he in Australia? Why was he on this flight going back to the USA if he was running from the guy he borrowed the money from?
I heard him say he'd DONE some torturing, but not that he'd been tortured. Is this being assumed because of the war, Sadam Hussein's reign in Iraq, or what? Either way, he said part of his duties as a "Communications Officer" included "getting the prisoners to communicate", not that he was tortured.
I think it's MUCH more likely, from the preview, that
Either way, should be interesting!

For the
executives of the show, the most intriguing breakout star
may turn out to be Yunjin Kim, who grew up on Staten Island
and attended the High School of Performing Arts in
Manhattan but then returned to her South Korean homeland to
become a major Asian cinema star.
Ms. Kim originally auditioned for the part of Kate, the
female lead, but Mr. Abrams decided immediately he wanted
to write another part just for her. "We had thought about
having a couple that didn't speak English before she came
in," Mr. Abrams said, "but when she came in, we knew we had
to have her on the show. And we started coming up with a
story for this woman and then her husband."
"I walked in and, obviously, I speak Korean, and the next
day they said they were going to write a role for me," said
Ms. Kim, who plays Sun, a seemingly timid woman who planned
to leave her husband on the day they boarded the ill-fated
plane. "I was, like, 'Hey, I don't even need to read a
script.' The fact that they would be so open and excited
about me, that was a huge compliment."
The most difficult role to cast, in fact, turned out to be
Kate. "We had master lists on the Kate character that were
12 to 13 pages long," Ms. Webster said, "which translates
to more than 200 actresses who we least checked on their
availability."
"We had seen some incredible actresses," said Bryan Burk,
who shares the executive producer credit with Mr. Abrams
and Mr. Lindelof. "'But J. J. kept saying, 'You're gonna
know when she comes in, you're gonna know.' Which I thought
was just his craziness. But then she came in. And we knew."
"She" was Evangeline Lilly, a virtually unknown Canadian
actress who got the part, on a last-minute audition tape,
almost out of nowhere.
