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

Loved Charlie's Luke Skywalker line: "I'm here to rescue you."

Thank you! The vague recognition of that line had been bugging me. I couldn't place it.

Heh. I squeed. I'm a dork.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I am also thinking, shoulder dislocations are not fixed by pulling on the arm in any random direction -- there is, like, a protocol for doing it, and it usually requires two people, to pull on the victim patient in two different directions.

Although it would be not quite so much fun to see Jack lose and arm to nerve death or something, just like we are not (yet) seeing Charlie's withdrawal symptoms include vomit.

If I only had a brain...

Okay, it was moths. Magic moths.

And I was thinking the same thing as Nutty -- it's more like "Rotate my arm 90 degrees -- AIIEEE SCREAM OUCH -- wait 30 seconds and let go."

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I think I figured out what really annoyed me about this episode-- the stuff with Sawyer.

My eyes were already rolling a bit at the "poor little Sawyer got his feelings hurt, so now he's not going to tell Kate what he came all that way to tell her" part. When this was followed up by his accidentally telling her anyway, it irritated me. You've made it clear Sawyer is not stupid, people. Go with that.

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."

When this was followed up by his accidentally telling her anyway

I didn't buy that it was an accident. I think he chose his moment to "let it slip"

If I only had a brain...

Oh, I think it was accidentally-on-purpose. "Oh, silly me, did I slip?"

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I don't think he accidentally told her - when he "let it slip", it was clearly on purpose. At least, that is how I remember it - no Tivo or tape to check, darn it.

lovely x-posty goodness.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Much as I like Jack, I sort of wish J.J. killed him off as he'd planned to from the beginning. I'd have liked to see Kate taking the de facto leadership role of the gang without all this starry-eyed school girl infatuation crap getting in the way, the heavy-handedness of which doesn't reflect that great on the character. Plus, Kate has more interesting dynamic with Sayid, or even with Sawyer anyway.

Been briefly to TwoP, and wow, the Kate-hatred is pretty rampant there. I kind of feel bad for the character.

I thought that Sawyer was momentarily motivated to go tell kate, and then got smacked down, and returned to form. The only weird thing was that he hauled his ass out to Kate and Sayid in the first place.

Everything else I thought was in character. Meeting up with them was plot-contrivance-y.
