Well, as a proponent of the InvisioMechasaur of Id, I think they're less scared, so it's less of a threat.
Has anyone else been getting a really odd (and different from before) vibe from Locke in the past 2 episodes? Like he's reached IslandEnlightenment, or something?
I assumed Kate's now dead friend is the one who sent her the letter and the $$.
Except wasn't the letter what gave her the news of her mother's illness? In which case it couldn't have been the doctor, since he didn't know.
I think it's very strange that Kate refers to what happened to her ex-BF as she "killing" him. And it leaves me with an asspull feeling.
She didn't pull the trigger, but her actions directly caused his death.
And she'd certainly
feel
like she killed him.

ITA. Major retcon, I thought.

True, but she did everything she could (short of, you know, getting out of the car and surrendering to police) to get him out of the way.
Would there be a legal case against her for his death? ISTM like the charge would be something like reckless endangerment, rather than murder.
Kate could, for instance, have killed her abusive father in relatively cold blood
Yeah, I'm getting tired of thinking of all the things Kate could have done. Isn't that the writers' job?
Every Kate backstory ep so far has been a huge letdown. We were told in the pilot that she was a dangerous criminal. We've been shown that she's kind-hearted, guilt-ridden, and misunderstood. (And after last night, it looks like we're about to find out that she was innocent all along. Feh.)
I think Kate's crime(s) had to have been pretty serious. She'd been on the run for quite a while by the time she went back to Iowa, by the look of things, and the police still cared enough to stake out the hospital. Plus they sent a Marshal to Australia after her, which doesn't seem like the sort of thing you do for a run of the mill bank robber. Also her mother's freak-out doesn't bode well.
And yes, I
do
want Kate to turn out very bad indeed, and am twisting the available evidence so I get what I want. Don't judge me.
Kate did something before the death of the ex. Why would she run/change her appearance/etc. before even going to the hospital otherwise? Also, when at the hospital, she ran. She didn't do anything to her mom.
I think while she feels bad and responsible for the ex's death, that's not her big bad thing.
heh! x-posty with Jars.
