… hoping Kate's crime wouldn't be something that could be white-washed. My money is on Kate having wasted someone in cold blood, *not* in self-defense, but premeditated.
Vonnie K is my kind of people.

It would be way interesting if she had done something that awful, put together with the gold-hearted acts we've already seen. I picture a scene like this between her and Jack, after a scene of interpersonal conflict among the islanders:
"Why are you like this? What did you do?"
"I murdered someone, Jack. My husband."
"Kate."
"I killed him."
"No."
"He's dead. But I'm not a bad person, Jack."
"Why did you--"
"You had your chance for questions before. It was four years ago. It's over."
"Kate. You killed a man."
"I did. And I'd do it again."
end of episode
"It was four years ago. It's over."
Oh, no. You ain't slippin' no "four years ago" into the mix.

The
Twilight Zone
thing. You have it scoped in the first act break/few episodes, then they toss it your in your face, all "Tomato Surprise!"?
Abrams has more skills than that.
Since Desperate Housewives has a full season commitment, maybe they can move Alias to Wednesdays following Lost....
I found a reference last night that says because the pilot started at night, the first hour only covered one day. Hmmm...
(who was referred to on the TWOP boards as a redneck) is a) reading a novel and b) willing to be seen reading a novel with a bunny rabbit on the cover. If he knew what kind of book...
See? This is starkest tinfoil-hat thinking. This is "Ooh, There is an
eye
over the pyramid, let's make a movie!" thinking, at it its finest.
