I heavily suspected it when they had the scene with Aaron earlier in the episode, so, like le nubian, I kind of saw it coming. But, dude, look how big he is. How long has it been?

Also...when did Kate have a pregnancy scare? I totally forgot about this whole thing.

Also: dude, they've been telling people that EIGHT PEOPLE SURVIVED, PERIOD? I...guess that's not too surprising, actually, but...shit. What the HELL happened to everyone else? They have to still be back there on the Island. They have to be.

Fell asleep before the episode came on and woke up too late to watch it, so I'll catch my DVR of it tonight, hopefully, while hiding from our latest snowpocalypse.

Yeah, I suspected that her baby was going to be Aaron too. . . so, Claire - back on the island alive? Or dead?

I didn't suspect the baby was Aaron, likely didn't think about it at all. But why wouldn't Jack want to see him?

Somebody over at Twop pointed out that Kate's attorney was played by the actor who played a character named Jack Shepard in the movie Frequency a movie that dealt with time travel of a sort.

I fell for the gambit that it was either Sawyer's or Jack's, which they were playing up (I called my mother on a commercial break and she hadn't even picked up on Kate's comment about having a baby at home - she is greatly benefiting from the pop-up reruns!), and Aaron caught me by surprise.

Where did you get 8, PC? I thought we were still counting up to the Oceanic Six. Jack, Hurley, Kate, Sayid, now Aaron, and 1 we don't know yet - perhaps the person in the coffin, perhaps not.

Jack said 8 survived the crash when he was telling the story on the stand.

but only 6 got rescued? interesting. the rest have to still be back on the island. It is unthinkable that Sun, Jin, Claire, Rose, Bernard, Desmond and Sawyer are dead!

Okay, yeah, now I remember that. It was so obviously false (to those of us who watched all the people running around on the beach), I kind of thought, he's lying for some reason that will become apparent later, and glossed over that he had just been sworn in. Maybe they did it to show how willing he was to lie under oath, e.g., re how he felt about Kate. Which, that was such a weird thing to ask.

quester, yeah, right?!

I guess for some reason they (the 6) have all agreed on that story - 8 crash survivors, two of whom didn't make it to be rescued, Kate is big damn hero. Jack couldn't very well tell the real truth just because he was under oath...

I assume Sayid's and Jack's references to people who need protecting are to the rest of them back on the island.
