Kate'n'Jack bores me. For potential het pairing, I'm more interested in Charlie/Claire, or even Sun/Michael.

Ah, Vonnie. You know the drill.

Heh. This is the part where we're sharing the brain, right?

Actually, 'operating on half a brain' would explain a bunch of stuff that's been going around in my life recently...

I think Locke is our Loki.

Hmmm...

And I'm wee bit uncertain as to why Charlie suddenly went from "You're a junkie and you're ruininig our band!" to "Drugs! Oh, well, I'll try it, I guess."

Charlie loves the music he's written. I thought that by doing the drugs his brother was, he wouldn't care about his choices (in other words, a road to hell) with the women and the lifestyle, but he would still have his brother and his band.

It just occured to me that this episode has some very religious undertones. Charlie had to ask for the drugs three times (Peter denies Christ three times) and the moth comes out of its coccoon stronger (Christ rising from the dead to offer salvation). When Charlie throws the smack into the fire at the end, he is essentially giving up his old life (sinful life void of Christ) and is starting the new (accepting Christ in your heart).

Considering they found 40 year old bones, and have heard a 16 year old signal, I think the person who hit Sayid has been on the island for 4 years.

This could be mathier.

The person feeds Sayid pi.

Could've been worse. he could've been hit in the head by a Wilson volleyball.

How long after Claire gives birth before she and Charlie get physical?

Methinks that they will set up housekeeping together with the baby while she recovers, and their relationship grows. I'm only guessing about the post-natal recovery period being at least 5 or six weeks for a normal delivery, but I'm thinking next season for the eventuality.

Meanwhile they will have to convince us it won't happen.

On the other hand, she could die giving birth and Charlie could take on the role of the baby's parent and guardian. If this happens, I suspect it will be May sweeps.

SailAweigh, that was an awesome analysis, and I will give it some serious thought. Thanks!

Ooh yeah, I wanna see more of both Charlie/Claire and Sun/Michael.

he doesn't even vibe with any of the supremely hot dudes on the island.

True, but I don't think that necessarily invalidates my thesis. Maybe he's only recently realized that he's gay, and so he doesn't have any experience with men, and he's a little afraid to open himself up to any possibility of sexual/romantic interaction so soon. Maybe he's worried that people on the island will ostracize him when they find out; he obviously didn't have a very supportive or loving relationship with his parents, so maybe they freaked out on him when he came out to them. Not to mention he's busy setting up camp and figuring out the best way for them to survive. I'm just saying, he seems a little uncomfortable around Kate, and it's intriguing to me, because he HAS to be picking up on the signals she's sending him.

Hee!

By the looks of the previews, it seemed to me they were planning to torture Sawyer to make him give up his loot. Heh. Loot.

As for Charlie's drug use, it seems to me he's just the kind of follower to take up drug use just like he did. I don't think choosing to use drugs you know are screwing up someone you love looks normal to anyone outside the event. He didn't want to lose his brother. He was afraid all along that Liam was right and he wasn't important. So, he did it, in, I think, a "nanny-nanny-boo-boo" way. This is what you want? I'll give you what you want.

I may be projecting.
