What I didn't like about Jin's flashback is that it was only used to try and trick the audience because there was no real character payoff about Jin, besides just getting more info on Jin being a glorified carrier for his boss. I knew there was something off about Jin because he was back to being a-hole Jin, and his cell phone was pretty clunky and old-looking.

Wow. That was a great episode. Very emotional ending. I knew something like that was going to happen, but I was thinking/worrying it would be Sun.
I guess it really, really doesn't pay to get involved in a DUI or similar situation when you're a cast member of this show.
No, Jin's was not a flashforward. It was a pre-island flashback. He said he had only been married two months.
The writers are having a great time toying with us using the flashbacks/flashforwards. Letting us not know which is which at first is a great idea, and they're milking every possible storytelling opportunity out of that structure.
I guess Aaron actually is one of the Six, after all. Either that or Jin does make it off the island, but dies later (not likely).

Good one, didn't think of that, Great episode, I thought WTF? when he finally gave the Panda away to someone else. The music everything I thought it was gonna be a Happy ending. Great to see Micheal. This season has been fantastic, Every Episode has been excellent.

If Jin is really still alive on the island why would Hurley say to Sun, "So...I guess we should like, go see him?" when only the two of them were present? And why would Sun speak to his tombstone? They'd both be in the know if any kind of cover-up like that was going on and he was still on the island, surely.

I thought it was kind of obvious that Jin wasn't rushing to the hospital to see Sun.
Sayid & Desmond were pretty smart for not letting on that they knew Michael. I wonder if we're in store for more "WALT! WALT!"
Who stole the panda? Another LOST mystery!
What TV show was Sun watching? I hate missing details, beause they're usually important.

Wait, this is how I interpreted this weeks episode:
Both Jin and Sun scenes were flashforwards. Jin and Sun both get off the island completing the Oceanic 6. However, something happens while back in the real world where Sun thinks Jin is dead and more than likely Jin thinks the same of Sun. Jin is married to someone else when he says "I've only been married for 2 months!"
I could be wrong but didn't anyone else think that?
