Heh, my first thought on that scene was, "What is it with the strawberries," but as soon as I thought that, I remembered Kate's breakfast with Ben, so I'm choosing to take it literally (even though I'm pretty sure she had a fish biscuit pre-kiss).
The Red Sox scene alone bought this show two more episodes of my loyalty, because I'm that easy (just not cheap).
Well, shit. Did not expect that. And here I was thinking Jin was a scary dude.
I still think he's pretty scary. It's not like the non-lethal messages he delivered were all hearts and flowers. Apropos of nothing, DDK has the prettiest bone structure, ever.
I'm still a little confused. Did Sun's boyfriend commit suicide after Jin visited him or did Sun's daddy have a back-up in case Jin didn't follow through? Thoughts?
I'm going to cast my kittens on being intentionally vague, because I was pretty sure he'd jumped and Scott was pretty sure Sun!Daddy had a back-up. That he was holding the pearls does keep me leaning toward it being a suicide, though.
Wait, Jin knows about the affair now?
I couldn't decide about that, either. I mostly think he does not. I think either Sun thinks he might, or Sun's "My husband knows I betrayed him," was only about her conspiring with Sayid, but meant to sound a little misleading to the audience.
(People may be sick of Jack -- but he's still very very cute when he laughs.)
I am not sick of Jack. He might be my favorite character (it's a toss up between him, Sayid, and Sun; and Ben/Henry Gale is lovable in that love-to-hate way).
I miss the non-Other others, particularly Eko, and Locke.
Is it me, or they concentrating on less characters per episode now? I suppose it's good for the actors, as it means less time on set.

Yes, but that means more time for drunk driving in Hawaii.
Snerk. I'm laughing in the office, this will get me into trouble.
Well, they have the original characters spread all over that island.

ABC should re-negotiate all their contracts, give them enough of an increase to pay for a driver and car 24/7, and in the new contracts, require them never to drive themselves, for the duration of the series.
Or keep killing them off. Please.
I swear, why do they always say that kissing women tastes like strawberries?
It did give me a brief flicker of hope that Evil!Willow would pop up and drain all the life energy out of Sawyer.
What bugs me is that Sawyer is suddenly a fighting-ability-detecting person, when he hasn't previously exhibited much in the way of interest or ability in that area.
The writers seem to have forgotten that it's Sayid and Kate that have actual military training (albeit unofficial in the latter case). Last time I checked, Sawyer came out on the wrong end of fights with a yuppie neurosurgeon and an angry hobbit, which does not make me share his confidence about being able to beat some martial arts-skilled guard.
Was it here or at TWOP -- I think at TWOP somebody suggested that Jin would have had a military background because South Korea has a mandatory draft type thing AND that given his background he'd have been a good candidate for special forces. I know that I don't know enough about Korea or the average modern South Korean to judge the validity of that idea.
I am okay with Sawyer thinking he knows who he can take and whatnot, but Kate's complete lack of badassery is really grating. I'm assuming that chick-in-the-bushes (was that Alex?) is part of whatever game is being played on Sawyer and Kate.
I don't know what Ben's up to with Jack, so that's interesting, at least.
I always like the Sun and Jin show, whether it advances the story or not. Unexpected that Sun's dad didn't tell Jin.
