Okay, that was a fun episode. Although - totally WTF with the English-speaking Jin in the promo.
Murk: But you're a God! The Sacred Glorificus! Glory: I'm a God in exile. Far from the Hellfires of Home and sharing my body with an enemy that stabs my boys in their fleshy little stomachs!
'Dirty Girls'
Lost: OMGWTF POLAR BEAR

Fuck that. They have 40 or so reliable adult people on the island. They need to all take turns.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Locke is not a practical guy. I mean, despite the practical skills. He's a believer, and he needed to get John to drink the Kool Aid. I think he'd rather have died than have things go wrong. And by wrong, I mean against destiny.
My brain keeps trying to map this to Serenity. It hurts.

Did anyone else get the impression that Jack had his moment of faith (and believing in the impossible) with his wife's recovery, and for some reason lost it, probably when she left him?

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Kathy, that's possible. I definitely want to know more now about their story. But I think that Desmond bringing her up is what made Jack change his mind and go back to the hatch.

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty
Speaking of which, I got interrupted by a phone call just as Jack caught up with Desmond. Can somebody recap their conversation for me? I missed the whole thing?

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
We don't know for sure if Jack's wife left him or died, correct? Or that maybe he left her?
I'm also dying to know if anyone spotted anything or anyone familiar in that training film.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Eh. I'll bet she was pregnant and died because of another car wreck. Possibly due to a mistake by a surgeon. Or a glowy red ball.

J: What are you running from? D: Hey, I remember you. What happened to the girl? J: It doesn't matter. (repeat) J: I married her. D: But you're not married anymore.
There was more, but really nothing new.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
D: But you're not married anymore.
Unspoken: Let's make out!

Desmond: OMG you're the guy I met running that one time!
Jack: ...
Desmond: So how'd things work out with that girl? You know, the one you failed?
Jack: ...
Desmond: Because for some reason I remember every detail of the conversation we had several years ago. The suspense has been KILLING ME.
Jack: I MARRIED HER!!! t almost cries
Desmond: Oh. And now...you're NOT married to her?
Jack: t is stoic and unresponsive
