And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

All I have to say is that we have now had six episodes (5 if you count the first two as one) and out of those 6 there have been 2 episodes that ended with a musical montage. The writers can be a little more creative than that.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

but in every fight I've witnessed (and during my stripping days there were quite a few)

::scooches in between Sean and Kate. Mmmmm, scrappylicious.::

99% of the people present just stand there and watch.

Yeah, see I get that in a street or bar situation. Less so in a disaster situation where one person is getting drowned too.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Judging from their proclivity for foreshadowing, I expect something devistating to happen to Hurley, only to have Charlie at the end of the episode crying and listening to Hurley's player as the batteries die and it slows and stops.

Maybe one of the upcoming ones can juxtapose Locke at the campfire and whatever's crashing around in the jungle sitting and pining for one another.

I wasn't responding to the parenthetical clause! Wasn't!

Well, the attack appeared to come out of nowhere, so it's understandable that people would be nailed to the beach pining for the fjords stunned.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Personally, I wouldn't jump in to stop a fight unless I were reasonably certain I could overpower the attacker, and Jin's one of the bigger, stronger men on the island. So I don't blame the bystanders for waiting for Sawyer/Sayid.

I've only stepped into stop a fight a couple times. Once I was an RA in that dorm so it was my responsibility to keep the peace. The second was on a crowded bus and the combatants were about to land on a woman cowering in her seat with an infant in arms.

Admittedly, there are many studies about the social dynamics when somebody is attacked in public. Most folks default responsibility in a larger group - expecting somebody else to step in. But the context is so different in their situation I would've expected other people to jump up earlier.

Or even if they didn't jump in, at least come to the water's edge and yell at him, or have someone run to get the big strong he-men.
