Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

"I make mistakes, but I am on the side of Good," the Golux said, "by accident and happenchance.” – The 13 Clocks, James Thurber

The first time Jack led his merry band through the jungle in the effort to stop Michael's mission of vengeance/reclaiming of WALT!!!, the Others could have captured Jack, Sawyer, and Kate right then and there. What's happened in the intervening 13 days that has made them more valuable? Or if they didn't want to take them in front of Locke and whoever else was along on that trek (I can't remember at the moment), they could at least have held onto Kate -- they had her captive, and Jack and the rest wouldn't have known about it until they returned to the beach. Why are they so interesting to the Others now?

(Sorry for the random use of pronouns -- too many "they"s -- in the above paragraph. But I think that editing it for clarity would lengthen it tremendously.)

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Maybe the Others have decided to take out the leaders of the 815's. Jack, Kate and Sawyer. And maybe Hurley, just because he has money. The "experiment" may need funding.

It's a stretch, but I can't think of any other reason. I don't think they - the Others - consider J, K and S "good".

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

If Locke was called "one of the good ones" by Henry Gale...I wonder if Kate, Sawyer, Jack, and Hurley are "the bad ones."

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

I think most of the Others are subjects in the experiment, too. It's just about what they can be convinced of and how far they'll go to support what they believe.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I'm betting from the final conversation between Jack and Sayid, is tha Sayid will be following the merry band of vengence hunters. Maybe with locke.

Locke's leg took about a week to heal. if that's not supernatural, I want some.

Aw hell, that's enough time to conceive and have a baby in TV time - nothing supernatural about it (though how all those floaty beams reconfiger into images....)

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

from tvsquad:

On Jimmy Kimmel's website, Hugh McIntyre of The Hanso Foundation is scheduled as a guest on Wednesday night (tonight). No other information is given, but over at The Hanso Foundation's website is McIntyre's bio. It doesn't include a photo -- only a question mark -- but lists McIntyre as the "public voice of The Hanso Foundation". He's public relations, people. I imagine he'll go on to bash the book Bad Twin, supposedly written by Gary Troup, one of the people who didn't survive the crash of flight 815. Sawyer has been seen reading the manuscript for Bad Twin on Lost. And it's an actual book that takes aim at the fictional Hanso Foundation.
