The Glass Ballerina

Yes, this is a Lost post... spoilers ahead if you haven't seen it...

Let's start with the fun stuff:

1) The kiss

How much did we all love the Sawyer/Kate kiss?! It was perfectly done in the moment, and also so "Lost" that Sawyer had an ulterior motive to see how much fight everyone had in them. I was most interested with his assessment of Juliet and the "she'd have shot you, no problem" comment. She's seemed like the "good one" so far, but maybe she's not.

2) Alex

I love that we saw Alex again. So, do we think she's a double agent? Working for the "others" while pretending to be against them? Or is she actually against them and if so has she found her mother yet?

3) The outside world

Wow. Ben (formerly HGI) has contact with the outside world? But he's been there his whole life? How is this possible? I'm very interested in where they're going with this, but don't have a theory yet. Do we think they really sent Michael and Walt home? Or did he kill them?

4) Sun

So, now we have the question answered - Sun being pregnant was not an "island miracle" it was Jae. Oops. I thought she might tell Jin last night. We also have a better idea about why they were leaving Korea. As I recall, Sun was going to ditch Jin at the airport and decided not to.

5) Enemies

"We're not the enemy, but we will be if you shoot me." Done. So, *now* are they the enemy? And if they weren't, who was? The whole cage thing makes me think they are pretty enemy like right now. unless there's another enemy out there, and there could be. Why when they saw the plane crash did they immediately send out "teams". They obviously aren't just hanging out on the island playing coconut bowling. What are they up to?!

6) Nicknames

"Shortcake" Love it!

That's about all, except to way that with all the new show previewing we've been doing, I can say that Lost really stands apart. It seems like all the shows this year are trying to do a Lost/Alias kind of thing - hour long drama, lots of questions, long story arc.... but Lost is still the best at this.

That's all for now...
