"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Did Charlie's visions/sleepwalking start up after he saw the black smoke with Eko? I can't remember the timeline on that.

Very next episode, wasn't it?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I'm just wondering what effect seeing the black smoke has on people. It would explain why Charlie's changed so much -- not necessarily for the better. It's almost as though the visions were manipulating him....

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

I'm glad to see Sawyer isn't just snarking from the sidelines now.

What was up with the gratuitous Vincent moment?

I think that was supposed to support the Ana Lucia red herring since they've shown the dog hanging out with her.

The book is Bad Twin, by Gary Troup, a mystery writer who boarded flight 815 and is now presumed dead. From Amazon (where the ''real'' book will soon be sold, in a gloriously meta tie-in)

Is it really a tie-in? As in created to go with the show (like DriveShaft)? Or is it product placement?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Aurelia, my understanding is that the writer is fictional, but the book will be written and sold in real life. It would be like releasing a DriveShaft album in the real world.

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

Hmm.

It's a redemption story for every character

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

Hmm, too. I think it could be taken in that direction, but so far, not really seeing any of it. Of course, last weeks episode is still in the forefront of my mind, so I'm not sure it couldn't be said of some of the characters, just not Charlie or Sawyer at this point for sure.

Our wings are not tired.

"Elijah sends me text messages anytime the show is on. Anytime there's a commercial break, he'll ask me a couple questions."

That's kinda adorable.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

You know, I was thinking about Charlie and Sawyer and Charlie refusing the statue could make Sawyer nervous. Sawyer probably assumed he could control Charlie via being the one with the heroin, but now that option is out. Though I suppose now that Sawyer has played his hand and got the guns, it's not like Charlie can really tell anyone anything to hurt him.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

The Scott/Steve gag is really, really, really times infinity, really fucking old. And tired. And stupid. Scott DIED before Ana-Lucia even came on the scene, why the hell would that confusion infect her?

Unless it is actually some sort of symptom of being infected by island sickness, or something that ends up being a major plot point, jesus please- Just. Stop. With. The. Dumbass. Scott/Steve gag.

Other than that, a suprisingly interesting episode.
