He's a bad baby daddy. (Of course.)

So, does Desmond have precognition -- or is he visiting from the future.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I'm really hating this whole "we're not bad cuz we don't kill" schtick from the Others. No, they just mind-f*** people, manipulate and torture, demean, humiliate, threaten, and break people psychologically.

Right, and they do it for no reason. At least, from the viewers' viewpoint, there's no reason. We haven't been any explanation -- not even a hint. Not even a glimmer of a hint. And that's (1) annoying, and (b) bad storytelling.

But why am I still watching, you ask? Because I'm home with nothing to do. And Desmond *really* intrigues me. Me might just be the only character left who actually does.

Good question, who is Clementine Philips? Is that the woman who came to see him in jail?

Thanks, sumi. My daughter called in the middle of the show, so I missed some stuff.

Yeah I'm really sad it's gone from "OMGWTF polar bear?!?" to "OMGWTF is the point of it all?!?"

Except of course that they have killed. Ethan sure did.

Except of course that they have killed. Ethan sure did.

which makes their hypocrisy that much worse. The lostaways have killed in self-defense, out of fear for their lives. The Others decieve and lie, kidnap, murder to maintain their deception, and then pull the "we're not killers" crap.

Unless we're to believe that Ben didn't preapprove Ethan's actions as a necessary step to ensure his getaway, or Mr. Peace Corp's murder to maintain his cover.

Which, no.
