Ana has the potential of being a much more interesting character than Shannon was. Still waiting for someone to be a badass without a mushy backstory. Maybe Rose can be a sweety on the island but was a serious badass in backstory.
They should film that story and show it every Christmas.

An interesting take on the Tailies from EW.com's review of the ep:
The Tailies and their new friends, Michael, Jin, and Sawyer, were hiking towards Forward-Section camp when they came upon a steep embankment. They began to scale the rise, dragging Sawyer (feverish from his gunshot wound) on a makeshift stretcher. Bringing up the rear of their little caravan were Libby and Cindy. Now here's where things get interesting: By the time they reached the top of the ridge, Cindy was gone, presumably ''taken'' by the Others. How did this happen?
With Libby's help.
I'm calling it: Libby's a plant. She's the Ethan of the Tailies' camp.
First off, go to the tape. Libby's the last one to interact with Cindy. And Cindy's carrying a large blue knapsack. By the time they've climbed to the top, Libby's carrying the knapsack. You're telling me she took the knapsack from Cindy and then proceeded to forget all about her? This is a ridge, not K-2 — you don't just ''lose'' people like that. Also notable: Cindy hands Libby a walking stick of some sort, just before we lose track of her completely. As this handoff takes place, we see a cavelike opening in the background, right where Cindy's about to pass. And it looks as if there's some sort of shape inside.
But here's my best evidence of Libby's treachery: Tonight, she told Sawyer she's a clinical psychologist. Well, who appears to have designed this tropical house of horrors, according to a certain orientation video? A team of clinical psychologists, that's who. Coincidence? What do you think? Is there such a thing as coincidence in the world of television drama? Consult the little Locke on your left shoulder (as opposed to the tiny Jack on your right).

(I'm so glad it wasn't Sayid, though! I thought for sure he was marked for death when he said "I love you.")
Oh, god, so did I. I was completely expecting a "gotcha!", like seeing a spear emerge from his chest, or seeing him suddenly disappear.

Is Libby the blonde?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Hey, guys? I can't find Rick on the manifest...

Yeah, the friendly one who was chatting with Michael when they were heading for the Tailies' hatch. She's too damn friendly--she must be an Other.

Shoot him! Shoot him! Before he strings us all up!
BTW, can someone remind me of what happened in Kate's last flashback ep from last season, the one with her old boyfriend who ended up dead? I'm trying to remember the details of that ep, and how it tied in with the rest of her backstory, and I'm fuzzy-minded. I'm trying to do a "Who's Who on the Island" for a co-worker who watches the show semi-regularly, and is getting lost on the growing cast (she thought that Shannon was Claire).

And Cynthia Watros has plenty of experience playing batshit crazy.

Her mother was ill, or dying, right? Old boyfriend was a doctor, and Kate was already on the run, and she asked old boyfriend for help in getting to see her mother. And they dug up a time capsule with the little plane in it, and when she went to see her mother, her mother freaked, and they tried to get away in the car, and old boyfriend got shot.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Sayid professed his love for her.
Totally didn't buy that. He would absolutely ditch her as soon as they got off the island.

Especially because Nadia is still alive and somewhere in California.
