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

I think the numbers are supposed to be entered in the last 4 minutes of the 108 minute time span. At least that's when the alarm starts.

What happens? Hell, we don't even know if anything happens if they don't enter them at all.

The first time we saw the standoff we only knew that Kate had been tied up and put in a room. The next two times we saw that she was in the duct.

I kind of suspect that you can enter them at any time, it would just automatically reset the clock to 108 minutes, so entering the numbers early doesn't actually buy you any extra time.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Also, is it just me, or was the eighteen different points of view rerunning the same few minutes thing crazy?

At one point, I realized we'd seen the scene like three or four times by now (literally), and it was really annoying me. I mean, they even showed the scene in the previouslies, and then they showed it again in the very episode.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

It could also be that Jin in English is in a flashback. He was only not-in-English before because it was important to know when what was being said was in what language (whereas, with Sayid's, once they established the language, they flipped over to English). I couldn't tell that it was definitely on the island, so that's where my money is.

I think you have Sayid look at the computer and figure out what it's doing with the numbers.

What is even happening?

I missed a lot of last season. Did we learn last year that Jack married (and eventually got dumped by) that patient, or did we just learn that this week?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

We knew that. I don't think we know exactly how he came to be not married to her.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Do we know he's no longer married?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I suppose we don't, really.

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

It's been implied, but never said outright.

My money is on him finally waking up and fleeing when she set up a huge altar to icons of him in their home.
