>: 33 WHAT KATE DID
o much story they had no recap and still went long. gotta love that. following the trend . . .
really enjoyed having kate's story fleshed out, can't believe they waited this long. wonder if they've always known or made it up on the fly? def got a drunk daddy vibe off that dude when he got out of the truck, turned out to be right, after a while. hardcore explosion, did NOT see that one coming. now we know why kate's mom started freaking out when she realized her daughter had come to visit her in the hospital. at least the dude never touched kate, would've been pretty cliche, drunk stepfather rapist
another great funeral. thought jack was going to get up and give a big eulogy but less is more. still can't believe they took her out. poor old sayid, a star-crossed dude, apparently.
did anyone else think sawyer might've been talking about loving ana-lucia? i thought he was being purposefully vague when he said it but that isn't really borne out by the rest of the episode. crazy that he tried to strangle kate, what's the rational explanation for that, the non-possessed by the ghost of wayne version? anything besides hallucination?
and such drama with the alarm. knew we'd be heading back to focusing on the hatch pretty soon. the counter actually hit 0, but got reset in the nick of time. good to know, too, about the buttons not working before the 4-minute alarm. news to me.
awesome that locke got jin's handcuff off. everybody owes that guy a favor.
kate's horse rather disturbed me, as the most ambiguous unexplained image in twin peaks (quite a list, that) was a vision of a white horse in a living room. liked it, too, how much nuttier she acted with charlie and sayid. way she said 'because i went crazy' was chilling. miz lilly's really stepped it up here past couple of weeks, getting good material and running with it. by the middle of the ep, i was wondering if sawyer even really attacked her, was it all in her head? maybe that one scene was but it was nice to have sawyer see the horse too, remove some shred of ambiguity. like we're not already drowning in it.
locke and eko are the team to beat. was rubbing my hands together when locke brought up the movie, welcome back dr marvin candle and namaste right back atcha. found eko's silent reaction to be a gyp but quickly revised that opinion. what was up with that great, great story? (shoutout to stew, whose brother's named josiah!) like locke, eko seems to enjoy the heavy parables out of wild left field. this one didn't gutpunch me with how it tied in, though. josiah used the book not the gold to rebuild the temple. way he was talking, i thought they were going to actually have those papers, that old BC testament, the original. but was it just a regular king james edition? was the point of the story that ideas are more valuable a commodity than currency? that's the only meaning i can derive. brett nailed it with the taxicab confession 'that's a lot of shit to lay on somebody to hand him some film.'
and what about that kiss? came outta freakin nowhere after all this time. the will they/won't they scully/mulder bit w/ kate and jack was prob my least enjoyed part of 1st season but i dug the golfing and this was out of nowhere enough for me to enjoy. everyone seems back where i assumed they'd be by episode's end though, good for sawyer. loved his first line back too, funny.
about the film, i thought it was going to be an alternate orientation tape for eko's hatch and it was going to wildly contradict the first one and send us on a quest to track down the other hatches and tapes so we can get to the bottom of the degroots and their remote-viewing research facility. then i thought we weren't going to have time to watch it, like when kate and sawyer were talking at 8:58 and i was just like, roll it locke! cut to ana lucia in rose's old spot, gnashed my teeth no, they are going to make me suffer through christmas not knowing. wrong on both counts, glad they got it out of the way, turned out it was far less drastic, didn't say what the incident was, just emphasized no really don't use the computer or you'll have another incident. either he's lying and they just don't want to disrupt the skinner box experiment or telling the truth and the incident had something to do with stations talking to each other over late 70s IM tech, looks like. that cursor is slooooooow. no guarantee that it is walt on the other end, great finish. if it is walt, is he in the parapsychology station/hatch practicing mental projection and playing on the computer for leisure? oi, this show.
fire back if you loved it or hated it or think adam & eve are really aaron and his wife from the future. really an extended comic book, you see.
