She said she was, in the "have you ever" game with Sawyer.

That's what I thought. Ever the optimist I'm going to believe that she has badassness at her core. Sawyer believed her when she said she would be on the boat, and so did I.

Of course, I'd prefer a bad to the bone Kate, but misunderstood is more likely.

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?

These express my sentiments, too. For some reason, I really want Kate to have blood on her hands - I guess I'll hold out hope that her original crime will provide that.

I was able to capture the promo, so the breakdown will come tonight. Unfortunately, it didn't look too revealing (but then again, that way it won't be misleading). I did notice that there was no narrator on the promo.

I keep getting psyched out by the promos showing someone getting sick. First Sawyer, then Michael. I keep waiting for that shoe to drop, and they keep holding it back. They are probably holding it back for season 3.

I know people who refer to their parents by their first names. I personally feel "Mom" and "Dad" are titles my parents earned, and use them. My late brother Don apparently felt otherwise, and called them "Don" and "Mary."

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

Even if the someone helped convince her to poison her husband?

---

My brothers and I call my Mom "Mom" to her face, but Sue (or various nicknames, such as Goatly, Nelly or Mothra) to each other.

Even if the someone helped convince her to poison her husband?

She didn't seem to have twisted Sun's arm. I think Sun would be feeling enough (warranted) guilt to avoid needing someone else to blame. Also, it is possible Kate might have made a confession like "Hey, I might benefit from it too" at the time.

I didn't mind that much because then we're not set up for a Jack/Sawyer cage-match that never pans out and fans become disappointed. Misleading promos irk (intentional or not).

I was surprised to see that there was no "Previously on Lost" narration.

Nah. She took advantage of the opportunity without fessing up to her intent. She's badass and sneaky I tell ya.

I thought that Kate referring to her mother by first name was just a method of keeping her parental status a secret for a bit. Whatever.

So does the hatch get opened at the last moment of the finale? Will we be left with the raft out to sea in a bad storm? Will Shannon have morning sickness?

The nature of the show is such that they can have loads of cliffhangers for the summer.

Please, no morning sickness and no proposals!

Yes, I am hoping we will be spared this too. I was wondering on Alias, if Sydney will be pregnant at the same time that Jennifer is preggers. I wonder how they will handle that.
