I love when I catch up in a thread and 1) am highly entertained, and 2) it starts and ends with nice conversational bookends. Even when the term "psycho" serves as the bookends. Or, perhaps, especially when.

Matt,
That wasn't Karie (or just Karie) who pondered that issue. :-)

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore
so i just watched AtBCHDI and a few things stood out that didn't before.
after Jack has his little confrontation with Ethan he says, "i'm not going to let him do this...not again." the first time i watched it, it didn't register with me.
I think the guy we saw talking to Jack's dad in the hospital is Ethan. especially since someone at the Fuselage asked Javi point blank and he denied. we all know the writers lie.
though i don't know why Jack didn't recognize him before this, i'm almost certain that it is the same guy. the whole "not again" thing makes me think that he blames Ethan for his father's death.
the placement of the flashbacks is just too...coincidental. the question becomes what is Ethan doing on the island? how long has he been there? it can't be that long. so i'm thinking now that he isn't "Alex". i think Alex is in that group of "they" that Charlie mentioned. i still have no thoughts on who "they" are. i do think that somehow the children are able to connect with the island in some way and that is why they want Claire's baby.
the coincidences with Walt are just too eerie at this point.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I really want to know what it was about this kidnapping that brought Jack's daddy issues slamming to the fore. How does this relate to telling the truth about your lying arrogant murdering drunkard father? Why does this kidnapping inflame your guilt, Jack? What the hell do you mean, you're not going to let "him" do this again? What has your daddy got to do with Claire and Charlie's fate in the Jungle of Mystery?
Answer me, you loon.

I think Jack felt that if he had stepped in sooner or said something about his father's drinking sooner, the woman who died on the operating table would have lived. And she was pregnant. So he's not going to let another pregnant patient die or have the baby harmed because he failed to do something. So he's driven to keep going after her no matter how reckless it actually is.

Oops, sorry le nubian. I somehow transposed your and Karie's names when I went back to check on that convo... which kind of makes the whole double-checking thing less than effective, I guess.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
tiggy,
when I watched the show again, the man didn't look like Ethan to me. Not the same nose or face. Jack was tired (no sleep), exhausted, probably dehydrated and he was flashing back to the past and they way his father killed the pregnant woman.
Why would he blame the husband for the death of his wife?
Jack has daddy issues and sees daddy everywhere.
