I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I don't know if y'all noticed, but the Hanso Corporation commercial had a disclaimer in the corner that it was paid for by SBC.

What is even happening?

It was. Are Australian cars like ones in the UK, with the wheel on the other side?

I think they are too (and I know she was on what would be the passenger side in a U.S. car), but when I was watching their bodies and how the car responded when he was taking a slug, it seemed to me as though he were driving. I'll have to watch again.

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.

Wasn't she supposed to be getting drinks too?

No, that was Hurley.

It did?

I totally didn't notice that - how funny.

Wow. That ending was shocking.

Did you guys get the impression that Ana knew that "Tom" was Jack's father when they were standing in line at the airport?

I also am thinking that Claire is Jack's half-sister.

Did Ana kill "Tom"? I can't remember if we actually saw how he died.

I'm with the folks who saw Ana driving. I remember wondering which side of the car Australia had their wheels on and seeing Ana with the wheel on the right side of the car.

ETA: I don't think so about Claire being Jack's half-sister. The woman didn't look old enough, and wasn't Claire living on her own before she left Australia anyway?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Didn't Jack's dad (whose name is apparently Christian, since I had forgotten that) die of a heart attack?

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

Ana-Lucia was definitely the driver, and Australian cars' steering wheels are on the right, like in the UK. (DH's parents used to have one when they lived in Hong Kong.)

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."

I was about to post something about how the fact that Australians drive on the other side of the road was explicitly mentioned in the episode last night.

You know, when they won those cars at the end?

That was the last five minutes of the Amazing Race, of course.

It's weird how long my brain was able to keep those things consistent.

Yeah, see the people on TAR aren't LOST. . . they just don't know where they're going.

It's different.

If Claire is only 20something (and I'm thinking early to mid-20s), the blonde we saw Jack's dad confronting definitely looked old enough to be her mother. A-L is older than Claire, and her mom looked a similar age to the blonde.

What I'm trying to remember is if any of Claire's flashbacks mentioned her parents at all.
