I thought it was strange that the smoke detector was included in the scene, but while I was thinking about it I totally forgot about it since Jack's dad appeared on the couch. Indeed, quite fishy! I've seen people comment about ol' smokey, but who knows.

I really don't think the coffin is for Aaron. The way Kate was acting when Jack told her about the funeral in the second episode of Through the Looking Glass indicates that. Not to mention at the end of their conversation she says "He's going to be wondering where I am," which is more than likely Aaron from the flashforwards we've seen concerning Kate so far. I also really don't think it's Ben, as Dr. Uzuki said. I had no idea the person died like that and was male though. I guess I really need to start listening to these podcast thingys. *lazy bastard*

As for Keamy, I don't know if this has been stated anywhere, but we really don't know how many people were with him and if anyone was killed or not. If no one was killed I really have to agree.

Kate might have promised to check up on his kid or do something for his kid.

Anyway, looks like Rousseau's dead for sure. It was so terrible seeing her and Karl's bodies in shallow graves like that. ;_; I was hoping she'd manage to come back long enough for her and Keamy to kill each other, but oh well. I'm not really enjoying the parts with Kate in the flashfowards, but it seems like they're setting up things and I look forward to how it's going to end up.

I don't think Ben's time travelling. If he had that much figured out, I don't think he'd be worried so much about finding Jacob's cabin. And from the examples of time travel that Desmond displays, he'd have to end up somewhere he's been before. I don't see a logical reason that he'd be in the middle of the desert.

I think he didn't kill Whidmore for either some moral reasons, or he's adhering to "the rules". That and he wants him to suffer like he himself did at the loss of his daughter.

I'm kinda disappointed that the monster didn't kill all those guys. That's kinda bullshit if you ask me.

Mr. Coffin is probably not Hurley. It's probably Locke, for my best guess. He's probably the sixth Oceanic.

I didn't much like the Desmond time travel episode. Didn't make much sense, and too little to do with everything else, I think. Kinda BS filler episode if you ask me.

Also, for some reason, I think Jack's Dad is back alive. In the season 3 finale, Jack mentions summoning his dad to see how drunk he is. Just something I noted.

...cares if Jack has appendicitis. If you want to scare us, give him a tumor on his spine. THAT would panic me.

As far as people on the mainland know, those on Oceanic Flight 815 are dead. Whidmore supposedly staged the entire wreckage that was found under the water by goin' and digging up corpses etc. So it's only natural that every character would have their own gravestone, with the date of the crash engraved on it.

And :( @ death of Danielle, or as I still call her, the Crazy French Lady. The way she went down was...kind of a downer, really. Disappointing, underwhelming; don't think she was a popular character, so they decided to give her a quick, succinct death. Sucks about Ben's daughter too, I guess.

You argument does not hold up in this case. It is obvious that the public knows that not all of the passengers on Flight 815 are not dead. Hence the publicity and the term "Oceanic Six." Lets assume you are correct and tombstones had been erected for all of the assumed deceased. If in fact Jin is the sixth person who had left the island, alive, why would the date of death on his tombstone be the date of the crash? If he was known to be one of the sruvivors and had died after being rescued, why would they not change the date on the the gravestone to his actual date of death? (i.e. after the crash) It would only make sense that Sun would ensure that this was done.

Also, why would the writers make Jin the sixth person to leave the island, only to kill him off without him making a post-island appreance? It doesn't make any sense and would serve no purpose. Having him die on the island serves the same purpose. It helps solidify Jin's character in that he would do anything to make sure that Jin and their baby got off the island alive.

Where does it say that a member of the "Oceanic Six" had to be some on who was originally on the plane or whose name was on the passenger manifest? He was rescued from the crash just as the other five were, there is no reason to believe that the media would not have included him in the number of survivors when they labeled them as "six".

But did this get addressed yet?

In the episode where Sun has her kid, J-I-N is running around trying to get one of those big panda things. Even though its for his business, he's still alive in the Flash Forward

His wasn't part of the flash forward. His part was a flashback. At the end of the episode a nurse say something about him having a child of his own soon and Jin says something like "Not yet. I've only been married for a few months" or something very similar to that. So, no, it has not been shown that J-I-N is alive off the island. I suggest you rewatch that episode.

His 'flash' wasn't a flash-forward. Note the shopkeeper tried to sell him a dragon, saying that it was the Year of the Dragon. That would make it 2012 [and so Sun's child would be about 7 or 8 years] or 2000. Jin's part in that episode was a flashback, that's why there was such a stir over that episode.

Like Richard showing up when Locke was just a kid. And the black guy who hired Naomi being Locke's 'orderly' later on...

Seeing Christian inside the cabin instead of Jacob, and then Claire being in there with him, too. Interesting.

We see how the Oceanic Six leave the island, and what happens there... Hm.

Glad to see the story finally moving again.
I'm still a little confused about how the time distortion works with the slit-throated doctor. I'll think about it more later.
No surprise that Christian was at Jacob's cabin. Mainly because in an old episode where Hurley saw the cabin, Christian was inside. That and Claire being led away by her dad a few episodes ago.
I'm waiting for the scenes where people will say, "Dude! You're Jack's daddy? And Claire's too? WTF?!"
Lost's reveals are getting pretty obvious to me, like seeing Abaddon (the black guy)
And how come Richard Alpert never ages? What is he?
And lol at the gun jamming up on Keamy trying to shoot Michael. He's invincible!

Yea, I saw Abaddon coming with Locke. AND Christian. AND Richard. Richard is like whats-his-name-Horace there, I presume. The Island takes many forms.

The idea which I liked for this episode was the end line of "we have to move the island." It's nice to see ideas from the first season coming full circle here. I was ALWAYS curious about the extreme "tides" back at the beginning which washed away the fuselage. Also, the Black Rock.

I want Keamy dead. No joke. Hate him so much. I was impressed with Michael's response to the dudes, too.

And Ben grows more and more on me.

Still needs more bad boy Sawyer though. :BITTER:

PISSED OFF at Alex's death. ;_; seriously, didn't see it coming.

Also, busy wondering what the new DHARMA logo is. The Orchid?

But seriously. Alex. BAWWWWW.
