>: 75 THE OTHER WOMAN

So, Goodwin was cheating on his wife. Not smart for Juliet to be sleeping with her shrink’s man. I thought for a second Juliet was Oceanic 6 when she said she didn’t like being a celebrity. But, no. Mustache Tom plants this firmly in the past.

I love how it still starts raining just like clockwork and it doesn’t seem weird to anyone, ever. And speaking of old mysteries, the voices return. Do they have something to do with the monster? With Harper’s return appearance? She certainly exits in an odd, almost smoky way. I mean, she freaking disappeared. Did Ben really tell Harper those things? That doesn’t seem likely.

And we have The Tempest. An electrical station that powers the island. And the place where Ben keeps his poison gas and had Goodwin working. Good to know.

The look on Ben’s face while he’s putting together the fact that Juliet and Goodwin are having an affair is some masterful acting.

Juliet looks just like whom? What woman from Ben’s past do we not know about? Surely not little Jenny from the swing set.

Great to go back, again, to the top of 3.1, the plane crashing. Shades of Nikki/Paolo Syndrome, though. Oh yeah, Harper was there all along, she walked up just before the camera cut away from Goodwin.

And another videotape. I think that’s my favorite part about this show, finding clues, more pieces of the puzzle. Widmore is in fact the power behind the boat. Big answer. Wonder what he would have thought of the fact that Brothah Hume was hopping back and forth before and after their conversation last week.

So, Ben tells Locke who the mole on the boat is. Damn you, commercial break!

Ben talking about Goodwin making a case for Ana-Lucia’s redemption is pretty great, two years after the fact. So it was his relationship with Juliet that bought Goodwin a ticket to the tail-section? Was there a similar reason behind Ethan’s assignment?

Nothing too shocking at the end here. I’m getting more and more worried about James Ford as weeks go by, though.
