I think that's totally in character for Sawyer. As a matter of fact, I could see Shannon being the cooker and shaver, trying to mke Sayid jealous, so each of them are putting on a manipulative show for the people they are actually interested in.
Lorne: You know what they say about people who need people. Connor: They're the luckiest people in the world. Lorne: You been sneaking peeks at my Streisand collection again, Kiddo? Connor: Just kinda popped out.

I don't quite see Shannon as the waiting-hand-and-foot type—she strikes me as manipulative in different ways. More a Cordelia-esque tease than someone who would actually serve and pamper another.
The actor saying that's what he'd like to see left me feeling the need for a bath with bleach and scouring pads, though.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Shannon didn't seem so upper-handish in the relationship we were shown. Not as much as I'd have expected, anyway.

I trhink she'd do it if she was ticked. A "How DARE Sayid imply Kate is more useful than I am! I'll show him what he's missing out on." Don't think it would last longer thana week, but if she was mad enough, I think she would do it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
It sounded like he was speculating on what would be a logical next move for the character to me, not a personal fantasy.

Art Crawl!!!
I'm with -t, I didn't think that was Josh talking about his personal fantasy.

Does anyone know off-hand which episode is re-running tonight?

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.
Whatever the Case May Be
