It's kind of hard to accept that anyone would go to all that trouble, and endanger that many lives, just to recover a toy airplane. She had the key to the box. Surely there were legal means she could use to get it.

dcp is right about it being a DC-3, which is probably the most famous and long-lived air transport ever. Many are still flying, almost seventy years after they were built.

Good ep, terrible title. Talk about bad puns!!

Loved Jack & Kate in this ep. Also Sawyer was funny when he kept treating Kate like "oh poor widdle girl" and she kept whacking him with rocks or head-butting him.

Also, Shannon/Sayid? HAWT. Boone? ASS. Although I totally wanted Locke to be his new boyfriend.

Is it at all possible that Kate killed her father? That's the thing that I thought at the end of the episode.

Are we 100% certain that the toy airplane was what was in the safety deposit box?

It seems we are meant to assume that, but its not neccesarily so.

OT: Just watched Alias. Clever start to the season.

I thought Shannon/Sayid was wrong, and a waste of my Republican guard. And I thought Boone was right.

the island's resident smart guy was relying on Shannon for help on an important project instead of him.

Resident smart, HAWT guy. Just sayin'.

I wasn't sure - in the box, the envelope didn't look as bulky as it did coming out of the suitcase. But I didn't go back to double check, so it could be in my mind.

I was hoping that she did not know the envelope contents when she went after the bank. I really want her to have killed someone over his super-secret safe deposit box, and it turns out he just had some precious childhood toy in there.

Wishful thinking is all my names.

I was just about to post something like this. Having never watched ALIAS, is JJ big with the honkin' misdirect? Because that seems to be his rep.

I do think there's definitely more to Kate's story.

The model plane was in an envelope marked "Personal Effects" which makes me think that the marsall took it from her when he caught her, so she's been carrying it around with her while she fled. Right?

I'm kinda liking Shannon/Sayid. She clearly needs someone to tell her that she can do things if she just tries (and look, she can! She figured out what the notes were! Not her fault they were not the helpful guides to teh equations that Sayid was hoping they were), and he's obviously going to go through all the women and half the men on the island eventually, why not start with the leggy blond with self-esteem issues?
