The Girl keeps pointing out that Kate was on Jacob's list (at the lighthouse), and that there was no reason why she should be crossed off the other list. And then I remind her that logic and Lost don't really mix.

The logic I've seen is that was deliberate in order to throw Smokey off. The cave list was a decoy.

I like that, but wasn't it only used in a preview?

As I said (except for spelling it "priview" by accident). I just saw some speculation in Entertainment Weekly on how deliberate it's use was. Random cultural reference, or deliberate clue?

It's been far too long since I felt interest in deconstructing a preview quite this much.

I hate you, show. I really, really hate you.

Watching now.

For an emotionless monster, Sayid sure is bitchy.

Aw, man, Hurley losing it really got me.

Also, Jin, it's noble and shit not to leave your wife, but you also have a child.

I'm almost wondering if everything will be reset to the beginning, when we reach the end. Because surely they won't stay dead, right? *sniffle*

Also, Jin, it's noble and shit not to leave your wife, but you also have a child.

That's true, but a child he's never seen. I can understand the wife in front of him being more real and seeming to need him more.

That said, really hope they don't stay dead. Somehow.

Not only that, but I suppose he was thinking there was a very real chance he wasn't going to get off the island even if he survived the sub. If we were to take bets, how many of the people we know are on the island will be able to leave it, do you think?

Only if Daniel's mother shows up with reinforcements do I think more than like 2 people will be able to leave.

Drowning is a terrible way to go, though.

True.

From the TWoP interview:

Daniel Dae Kim: Mindy, did you know TWoP is one of the only sites I read about the show? TWoP: Is it really?! Kim: Mm-hmm. TWoP: Are you a fan of our recapper? Kim: I am, and I think the people who are writing into your forum are very smart. Very detail-oriented, but not in a freakish kind of way. [Laughs.]

Woot! Go Cindy!!

Oh Rayne, I freaking plotzed. I'd be plotzing still, had last night's episode shattered my brittle heart.

And man, I'm starting to realize how much I'm going to miss this show when it ends.

I can't even think about it. Pragmatism aside (the recap for Lost pays, literally, 10 times what the weecap for HIMYM pays, and 5 times what the weecap for The Vampire Diaries pays), I...I...don't know what I'm going to do with myself. As a viewer, I mean. This was my last thinky show.

I keep thinking it's going to be either Jack and Locke, or Jack and Sawyer for the Jacob/Smokey replacements. But then I think Bernard and Rose (white and black, male and female, science vs. magic) will be Adam and Eve, so maybe they'll be the replacements, too.

I can't believe there are three weeks left and we still don't know what the hell is going on. Tied to a Tree in a Jungle of Mystery, indeed.
