Despite sort-of-predictable back story, this is the most I've liked Kate in a long time
I agree, even if I didn't find the Kate/Jack kiss hot. I found it awkward and random, and was pleased to find out that that's because it was awkward and random.

because right now I'm digging the mysterious silent thing he's got going.
Heh. JZ and I started laughing after the Eko/Locke scene with the new film. And started MST3King over their dueling enigma-off.
"Oh you
think
you're inscrutable. You don't even know the depths of my enimagmatic plumbless depths! Did I say depth twice? I raise my eyebrow at you!"
"You only think you know that I don't know the dark secret lurking behind your mysterious silence, my friend. I've known all along that you know that I know that you had the film. Do you think it was just a coincidence?"
OK, so what was the deal with the horse? It seemed just as random in the flashback as on the island.
Nora, I like your theory about Locke not actually hitting the button in time. I've been assuming that there would be some kind of major event if it weren't pushed (loud noises, something involving the blast doors, etc.), but maybe it's not designed that way.
Agreed on the awkwardness of the Jack/Kate kiss, and I liked that it was meant to be that way.
In the scene in the bus station, when the guy behind Kate starts talking to her about Tallahassee, did anyone else think that he looked like Wayne for a second, when she first turns around and looks at him?
Also, poor dead Shannon. Her funeral didn't even rate a musical montage. And I still don't believe that Sayid loved her.

I thought maybe it was the horse that caused the accident.
Although being the girl I am, I thought "Oooooh, pretty horse."
And I still don't believe that Sayid loved her.
Me neither.
I think Sayid was infatuated with her, and that he is really mourning what might have been.
I thought the horse was for Kate what the boar was for Sawyer. Which makes me wonder who the polar bears are for.
Hopefully someone one the plane used to blow up his transformers with firecrakers, and that is the secret of invisamechasaurus.
And I still don't believe that Sayid loved her.
They were on the island a total of 48 days when she was shot? How long after they crashed did the two of them start to show interest?
Which is to say, I agree with you.
Do you believe Sawyer's in love with Kate?
I thought maybe it was the horse that caused the accident.
Yeah, sorry, I was being unclear. I agree that the horse on the island is meant to be the horse that caused the accident (or some sort of representation/astral projection/thingy of same). But the horse that caused the accident also came out of nowhere, and then hung around long enough to guide Kate in the right direction, so... what's the deal? Was it just a regular horse that happened to cause the accident, or was it something more?
I think Sayid was infatuated with her, and that he is really mourning what might have been.
Sadly, now he'll be too torn up about it to get with anyone else on the island.
