I think this episode got me over this show. Kate started out the season as being kind of intriguing and bad-ass, and now we find out the man she loved/killed was her high school sweetie (awww) who was too dumb to get out of the way when she told him to (sniff). If her original crime was also sympathetic, like killing an abusive father figure ... why, she's not Bad, she's Just Drawn That Way.
I don't want Kate to be a psycho killer, but I did want her to have done genuinely, seriously bad shit. Why can't we have a non-woobieriffic character on the show? Just one?
was anyone else thinking, "oh, yeah, not telling the others has worked WONDERFULY well so far on this island!"

Though the first words out of my mouth were "Yeah, let's let everyone think Kate or Sawyer must have done it, no moral quandaries there".
The Kate backstory is disappointing me. Unless she does something really badass soon I'm afraid I won't be able to care about her at all.
Walt's psychicness on the other hand, is coming along nicely.
But we don't know what her original crime was. I'm thinking that Tom just didn't believe she did whatever freaked her mother out. Just a few days ago, the FIL of the childkiller here in Zion, IL defended the guy to the press when he was first being accused of killing his daughter and her friend. The FIL hasn't said anything now that the man's confessed, but that original defense came to mind when I was watching the ep.
I cerntainly hope we see Charlie find out there's a plane full of smack out there. Without moths.
Episode time 40:19, plus 0:39 of previews and closing credits.
That's about right, maybe a bit short. We get timecoded worktapes at work and hour-long shows are 43-44 minutes, including opening and closing credits and promos--never longer. Half hour show are 21-23 minutes.
I would think that Charlie will find the heroin. Otherwise, it just seems an odd coincidence. Or it will be used to keep him in line.
The actor that played Walt had a good episode. I genuinely got chills when he told Locke not to open the hatch. Also, a great scene between he and Michael when he told his dad that he'd burnt the raft. I LOVE Harold Perrineau.
That may have been my favorite part of the ep.
I loved when Claire was trying to cut Charlie's hair. It was too cute!
I LOVE Harold Perrineau.
The man does not get enough work. I missed having him turn up every week on OZ (hell, even AFTER they killed him off).
Hopefully on this show, he WON'T be the one to get eaten by the marauding beastie.
Watercooler over at tvguide.com pointed out that the date of the tape that Kate and Tom listened to in the car? August 15, 1989--8/15. Love the little use of numbers in this show.
