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.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Scott DIED before Ana-Lucia even came on the scene, why the hell would that confusion infect her?

I was going to mention that. Maybe it's a sign she knows more than she lets on about the non-tailies.

When she said it, I went "hmmm."

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Just. Stop. With. The. Dumbass. Scott/Steve gag.

I thought it was funny

I hated it too.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yeah, that made me roll my eyes. I suppose she could have been told his wrong name when she was first being introduced to everyone, but making it into a reasonable mistake requires more fanwanking than a one-line gag deserves.

What is even happening?

Nods in Jon's direction.
