Stream of Consciousness TV Blogging: Lost

Previously:  Sawyer and Kate make out.  Sun opens fire.

Desmond!

Battle of the accents.

Is there any hidden meaning to the cartoons?

Why *are* they here?  Just to keep them out of the way.

It didn't work that way for the Losties, and yet there were leaders.

The sub is back?  The one from the season 2 finale?  (Alternately, who's the dom?)

Oh, it's the woman Sun shot.  How'd they get her back, and what happened to Sun?

Sawyer sets a trap.  Would the water actually make any difference?

Nonsubtle use of the episode title.

Oh, they're so good cop/bad cop.

What do you weigh?  What are they planning now?

Heh.  Don't fuck with the Benry.

This makes no sense.  Why are the injecting into the heart?

Back on the beach.

New Lostie?

8-Bun.

Oh, bullshit.  Easier to just slap on a band-aid and tell him there's a pacemaker.  Sawyer's a con artist, he should want more confirmation.

Oh god, it's the "no peeking" scene.

That's still no proof.  A shallow cut can do that.

Gratuitous back shot.

Does cold water lower your pulse?  I don't remember that from swimming.

Back in the jail.  Yeah, that's totally a con.

Sawyer's got a kid.  Or it's another setup.

How old would she be now?

Time for Dr. Jack.  Is that why they got Michael to bring him here?

Whose X-rays are they, then?  And what's that spot, an implant?

Ew.

It's broken and Jack can't MacGyver something up?

Sucks to be you, Jack.

Almost as much as it sucks to be Sawyer.

God, talk about forcing the UST.

That's a setup.

Oh, just make out already.

C'mon, this is such a con.  He always does the walk away to establish cred thing.

This is a very manufactured drama.

Oh, please.

Now she knows she can get out any time.

Three times in one episode?

And a gratuitous earlier title.

The Others make no sense.

What's in the center of Juliet's Dharma logo?  The Hydra?

About 40?  Sawyer at 35?  Ben?

Desmond did travel through time, didn't he?

Wrapping up the flashback plot.

I totally called it.

Clementine Phillips?  It's another scam, I bet.

"You're a free man."  How cliche.

I totally called it again.

Oh, so now he's skeptical.

It's a second island?  How come they never spotted it before?

Heh.  Caged mice.
