GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

How do we know one of the castaways wasn't on the plane? Was this stated in an article somewhere? (Not doubting the claim, just curious.)

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Okay, maybe I made it up, but I thought someone had quoted the producers, maybe JJ himself, that one of the people on the island wasn't on the plane.

If I only had a brain...

The shorts and sandals look is gonna get kinda unisex looking, too, unless some importer was shipping a load of disposable razors, and the crate that fell out when the tail section broke off washes ashore.

And, yo, Kate -- SOMEbody's got a hairbrush. Kiss the woobie again if you have to, but kempt those locks.

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

just had a wild thought that Claire might "be" the island. That the child symbolizes "new life" brought to the island, in the persons of the castaways.

My spec regarding Claire is more commonplace. Well, as commonplace as can be in this freaky-ass island. I think Claire lost the baby post-crash. Baby was effectively dead during the time she couldn't feel it, and when it started kicking again post sea-urchin diet, it was her baby brought by to life by the mysterious forces of the island. Or... it may no longer be *her* baby. Dum dum DUM! t cue Rosemary's Baby/Pet Cemetery theme

Plus, it is a truth unfortunately universally acknowledged that every genre show requires a Miracle Child at some point.

Maybe the first flashback we see of Claire on the plane will show her not pregnant!

AND Sawyer would have had to accurately predict how long a cigarette that wasn't being dragged on would burn before catching the actual rocket fuse.

And a smoker stranded on an island with a limited supply of cigarettes -- wasting one? Never happen.

All is well that ends in pizza.

OMG, Locke is Angel S3 finale Gunn!

You mean S4 finale? Or that he's wandering around with Fred, looking for Connor, Cordy and Angel?

For some odd reason I thought there were only 4 seasons of Angel. Must have had Farscape on the brain.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I think they did the end of the flashback too concretely. I would have liked it better if they had omitted the "I'm walking away from the deal" scenes, and left it unclear whether Island!Sawyer was Flashback!Sawyer or Flashback!Kid, or both, just at different times, and that the regret and self-loathing he felt was justified because he had ruined a family just as his own family had been ruined.

Thrive to spite them

Besides Locke using a knife to shave there was a quick scene last week when Michael was shaving...it was right when, uh, Charlie (?) ran to the beach and said there was a cave in. It looked like he had shaving cream and some kind of razor.
