Juliet Mills and Ben Stiller.

I've basically taken the view that I just don't care that much about the extra stuff. As I said to G last night, if it's not onscreen, it's not important to me. I'll be damned if I'm gonna go to ten thousand websites to get some "information" which really doesn't matter in the long run.

(I am also a survivor of X-Files, so I take all "we have this planned out well in advance" talk with a huge grain of salt)

Cindy, Danielle was the crazy lady who tortured Sayid and stole Claire's baby.

Heck, I knew it was going to be so boring I played a computer game while I watched. I don't think I missed anything important from what I could see. And I'm getting very frustrated with such a slow payoff. They could resolve at least one story line per episode.

quester, who the heck is Danielle? I feel so stupid. I watched the whole episode, and didn't fall asleep or anything.

She wasn't in the episode - she's the crazy French woman.

To quote the Muppets: "Yepyepyepyepyepyepyepyep".

Despite the obfuscation, I enjoyed it, which I consider to be an achievment given that it was yet. Another. Jackstory. Epidose (heh, I'm going to leave the typo).

I don't know -- I always enjoy the show while it's on, but much like the X-Files, I've given up on the overall payoff making sense.

The opening was interesting, but yeah, WTF? Why are they pretending to be living in huts when they've clearly got electricity and blah blah? And the question about Danielle is really valid -- why let her run around the island when they could clearly capture and keep her?

That said, the most interesting thing to me was: the different means of imprisonment for Jack, Kate, and Sawyer. Smacks of psychological experimentation, although I doubt it will pay off. And how are they underwater in the aquarium?!

Henry Gale/Ben is obviously the leader, but Juliet has to have some authority if she can smacktalk him at book group. (I can't believe I just typed that.) If anything, their interaction intrigued me the most.

And, much as I hate to admit it, I still like Jack. Yeah, he's kind of crazy obsessive, and self-involved in a very weird "I have to save the world!" way, but I just want to snuggle him. (Okay, not "just.")

I know what the secret to Lost is! It's to see how many men the show can get us to woobify! Woobie-woobie.

Yeah, I did like that part (I was a psych-major in college, so big surprise there). Riley Finn would have approved.

Want to bet "Chachi" was putting on an act to gain Sawyer's trust?

That's what I thought! That everything was an act, that he was there to test how Sawyer would behave, blah blah.

I did like the fish biscuits. Funny.

That, and "It only took the bears two hours." Somewhere, Stephen Colbert felt a great disturbance in the Force.
