I dunno, I maintain that, while Sawyer has her number, it also turns him on.

[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
So does Sawyer see a) potential con partner, b) hottie, or c) UST in her?
I think hottie. Sawyer's too self-flagellating to feel entitled to NicePureSweetheart! Kate. At least in a situation where there are no (intact) planes to hop. But FallenAngel! Kate? He can roll around with her all he wants and not feel any of that Sawyer "I'm still an asshole" angst.
I think Sawyer sees Kate as a hottie who's putting on a prissy act when it suits her in order to keep him at arm's length, but who he can probably break, given time. And I think he's right.
I think also, having figured out that they're not so very different after all, we'll see more of him getting a charge out of making her reveal that side, to him at least. I'd expect theres a roiling mixture of amusement, admiration, and bitterness that she's so far managed to keep her less pretty bits hidden, while his are out there for all to see.
Yeah, I'm going to be interested in seeing Jack and Kate and Sawyer and Kate's interactions next episode.

If they address it....

Yikes, so Sawyer really IS Spike.

The way their trust issues keep bouncing all over the map, Kate and Jack may be snuggling by the fire and confiding in each other next episode with no explanation. I mean, "Whatever the Case May Be" gave Jack plenty of reason to be distrustful of Kate, but that vibe was building without cause or explanation for a couple of episodes beforehand. It would've made sense if he'd been distrustful of her from the moment he found the mug shot, but there were intermediate episodes where he was all forgive and forget and they acted like best buddies.

That's just to set Jack up as the great Pollyanna that he is. He may have threatened Sawyer in this last episode, but I don't personally think he would have followed through. So, he does the same thing with Kate. Despite the fact he's getting a better understanding of the way Kate works, he doesn't really want to believe it.
