A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

So I've got to assume that the device strapped to Keamy the douchnozzle is connected to the explosives.

Interesting. Although if the device is activated while he's on the island, with all the timey-whiminess, who knows when the explosives will go off!

Oh, hey, good point, Jon!

When Sun said she'd bought a controlling interest in Daddy Dearest's company, all I could think was "No! Now you're tied to all his criminal activities!"

No blowing up Jin.

I'm also wondering what happens if the island moves. I think the device is one of those that senses his heartbeat or something, which is why the captain didn't shoot him (i.e. dead Keamy = boom).

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I still don't think that the island "moving" is meant to mean spatially, geographically. I think that it's going to "move" time-wise.

Art Crawl!!!

Teppy, that's a brilliant idea. I'm sure you're right. I wonder when they'll travel to.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Sun saying that two men were responsible for Jin's death and her father was one... man, I'm so so worried about confirmation that Jin really does die. Unless Sun is playing up the story that Jin is dead to give her extra leverage against her father (and set about having the power and influence to take down Charles Whidmore and maybe go find Jin), that didn't feel like she was lying.

Don't be dead, Jin!!!

I just am not convinced that Jin is dead.

Compassionately intolerant

I love the idea of Sun being the anti-Widmore, but I fear the showfolk just aren't that clever.

I was a little mystified by the 'quite substantial' amount of the Oceanic payout. Having been personally connected to a major plane crash, I can't imagine that payout being enough to wrest controlling interest from a major corporation...unless it was on the rocks. Still, go Sun. Get down wichyer bad self.

Maybe she had received a larger payout due to the "death" of Jin?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

That's actually a really good point! Especially given that the story was that he never made it out of the plane, so Oceanic would definitely be "responsible" for his death.

I wonder who the other two people they claimed made it off the plane are. And why they bothered to invent two other people and what fictionally happened to them.
