So nobody else is confused about why Sun's father's watch was on the plane?
I was definitely confused, but it ran into my whole "what a weird plot device" wonder and awe.
Yeah, WTF is up with that?

Perhaps he'd given the watch to Jin as a thank you for doing those tedious little tasks that he wouldn't entrust to just any underling?
This is what I was thinking.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Well...I think shooting a US Marshall in the chest with the intent to kill him is probably a felony.
Yeah, technically, but he was actually trying to save the guy from a messy, lingering, and terribly painful death. He just...fucked up.

I'm still thinking Jin is really fuckedup. Why didn't he just go over to Michael and *ask* for the watch back?
You could probably convey that even without language.
Oh, wait, I'm using logic and reasoning again. Bad tv-watcher.

Maybe there's more to the watch than just telling time. I have no idea what. I'm just saying. Could have been part of a super secret mission Jin was on. Or, possibly I've been overdoing the Alias DVDs to catch up in time for January.

Now I am.
If they were travelling on business, i suppose it could have been something to lend Jin legitimacy as SunDaddy's representative. Which would explain why he was so pissed that someone else had it.
Or, oh i like this theory as it's coming to me, Sun swiped it earlier and was going to pawn it to give her some running away money. When Jin recognized it on Michael, he thought Michael had stolen it before getting on the plane.

Not only that, but there don't seem to be any dead spots in the cast.
Indeed. If I am annoyed, I'm annoyed by the character (aka snicker bitch), not the actor.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I think Jin's first reaction was that Michael was disrespecting him, his wife and his father-in-law, not to mention that he'd been settling things with violence for a while.

I am annoyed by the actress playing Snicker Bitch. She doesn't ring true to me.
