Art Crawl!!!

The safety deposit box was somewhere rather southwesternly. . . Tom and the hospital were in Iowa.

Our wings are not tired.

DH thought she killed someone in the bank; I thought she shot everyone in the legs.

Thrive to spite them

We still don't know what Kate's crime(s) were. She had a trunk full of licenses plates and seemed pretty familiar with using motels and changing her appearance so I got the feeling that she's been running and scamming for a long time.

We don't know what her crime was or any that were there's still a chance it could be something bad.

Sawyer and Jack are the only two that know she killed a man right? And neither know the circumstances so they could both think that she actively killed someone rather than just being the cause of his death.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

We still don't know what Kate's crime(s) were.

Two weeks away from the end of the season, with her supposed badassedness being all tell and no show, not knowing is a problem for me. From what we've seen onscreen, I'm not convinced her backstory's worth waiting for.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Plus, as someone else noted, what did she do that freaked her mom out to see Kate?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Did we discover she had been married, or is my memory faulty?

She said she was, in the "have you ever" game with Sawyer. Of course, she also said she killed someone. I wonder if she meant Tom.

Two weeks away from the end of the season, with her supposed badassedness being all tell and no show, not knowing is a problem for me. From what we've seen onscreen, I'm not convinced her backstory's worth waiting for.

Plus, do we need yet ANOTHER Kate-centric episode? Certainly not this season.

However, it just occurred to me that for the two-hour episode, they might hit everyone's back stories a little. Hmm. Off to the spoiler thread to see if anyone's delineated whose episodes the next few are...

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

There's also the fact that there was some pretty major league police pursuit almost instantaneously after Kate made a break for it. That says to me that whatever she did in the past was bad enough that they either had a huge stakeout around her mom or the mere mention of her name got the kind of response normally reserved for the Blues Brothers. That coupled with her mother's horrified reaction makes me hope it will still be something good and Bond villain-ish.

Why isn't Sun mad at Kate for suggesting that Sun poison Jin after she found out it also allowed Kate to get a place on the raft that she needed so badly?

I think Sun might be the last person on that island to pass judgement on someone for having an urgent need to run away.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

She did say she was married. I assume not to Tom.

I wonder why she called her mom, "Dinah" when she was talking to Tom. Also, who sent her the letter with money to Somebody Hart at some hotel.

But if her backstory is gonna be all lame explanations of why she's not really that bad, I'd rather not know.
