We're meant to assume that Balloon Guy is one of the Others, right?
God, I hope not. I want Sayid's "I don't feel guilty about torturing him, ergo he must be evil" theory to be ripped to fucking shreds.
[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Balloon Guy looked familiar and I want to say he played a serial killer in something. I'm leaning towards The Inside, but it could have been Angel.

He was! He was the pre-filer guy on the Inside! I knew I should know him from somewhere.
He did look familiar. And I'm with Jessica. Sayid has become as single-minded as Jack in his own way and just as crazy. Hmmm, Rousseau's a tad crazy. Maybe it's catching?
The way I saw it, time ran out, and the hieroglyphics were basically the start of The Big Bad, but Locke managed to cut off The Big Bad before it really kicked in. It's a tease, but hey, that's Lost.
The daughter and I were discussing this, we're wanking it that not all the hieroglyphs had appeared yet so it reset once Locke entered the numbers. We sure were hoping for more BOOM at zero than what we got.
That's a great wank.

Like how Buffy had time to stick the sword through Angel, even though Al Franken had started to suck him and the world into hell.
Exactly! Kinda like TV time bombs -- you've got at least half a second after the counter hits zero to cut the red wire.

I was really hoping Locke wouldn't get the numbers in time, so we could see that NOTHING HAPPENS.
The heiroglyphs being a tease to freak the button-pusher out before he looks around and says, "....waitaminnit..." and sees that it's all a psych-out.

Michael Emerson. I loathe David Kelley but for some reason I was dumb enough to watch The Practice, and Emerson will always be Lindsay's stalker to me (as Clancy Brown will always be the big guy in Bad Boys.) In real life he's married to Carrie Preston, who played the mother on the same Inside episode and the nun on Wonderfalls.
