I'm having trouble divorcing my reaction to this episode from my, uh, life, because I have relatives who bounce in and out of the psych ward for depression, eating disorders, suicide attempts, and schizophrenia.
It wasn't painful to watch, really, just that I'm OMG SO BIASED in favor of Hurley being a patient.
THE CLOTHES AREN'T REAL????

They're completely imaginary. Such is the power of Hollywood.
I loved this entire episode. I especially loved the moment when Hurley was talking to Rousseau about the whole island experience and said something about the huge monster thing on the island that no one seems to be looking for and how weird that is. Also, "pissed off giraffe". Am I crazy, or was that one of the theories the fans put forth early on as a joke? I was wondering if Fury lifted it as a bit of a SO.
In any case, any writer who has manipulated me enough to make me burst into hysterical laughter when I see a suicide jumper falling past an office window in one scene definitely has my respect. Wow.

That was the moment where I checked to see who wrote it. Sure, I have no idea if an ME-alum made that moment so magical, but I felt validated by seeing the names there.
I wonder if we'll see the office block jumper land (or jump) in somebody else's flashback down the line.

Yes, precisely. It was classic ME: do something horrifying and make the viewer laugh at it.

So you're saying the cast will be naked on the DVD extras? Sweeeeeeet.

I'm thinking that we'll be in the middle of a very serious flashback, and the jumper will jump all tragic-like, and it will only occur to us then that, hey, we're at a financial consulting firm--Hurley's downstairs!!
I was deconstructing the numbers for another Lost fan here at work, and we couldn't figure out a connection for 23--any ideas?
