[...] was looking mighty fine with that black dye job. I actually forgot to comment on her flashback in my comments on Ed’s post, but it was sort of fluffy. I mean, we all figured out she was Jack’s half-sister in Ana [...]

Or… Jack knows about the sonic pylons and doesn’t want his head to explode. I’m leaning more on the side of him playing along for now, same as what I believe Juliet is doing. Time will tell I suppose.

As for Locke tossing McPatchy thru the plane, it was a logical choice for him to make. He didn’t want the guy along, for fear of more secrets being revealed perhaps(?), and they needed a guinea pig. The reveal of him holding C-4 lends itself to the belief he had an idea of what was going on at the Flame, but then, it could be just what he said too.

Klugh demanding to be shot/sacrificed for their cause, along with Mikhail’s “thanks” would seem to point to some belief system, most likely related back to Jacob.

Wasn’t the heading that they were on, either en route to the Flame or the camp, the same one Ben gave Michael when he handed over the boat to he and Walt?

Finally, what is with Locke not wanting off the island, or rather, not wanting anyone else off the island? I’m pretty sure they could probably leave and he’d still be able to walk, but then, he’d get lonely unless he played nice with the Others.

@Chris – Danielle is with them. Look at my first pic above – her head is where the ABC HD logo is (bottom right hand corner). It looked like Sayid and Danielle had scouted ahead then Sayid came back for Locke and Kate.

@ Jack – I was thinking that he could potentially be brainswashed – similar to what they were doing to Carl earlier this season only perhaps a more concentrated dose to break him sooner. As he just tried to kill Ben days ago, it’s doubtful they would extend his leash very far unless they felt they had him under control.

Ed, I agree that Locke does not want to rescued. Why would he want to go back to Paralyzed? Same with Rose (who still has not been seen this year) whose cancer was cured. Locke is mystery, sometimes he seems so knowledgeable (like with the c4)and then he also make these strange snap decicisons like the button does not need to be pressed which leads to the destruction of the hatch. He does make these decisions out of anger and frustration though. Same with pushing one-eye throught the pylons, although that was one good decision.

The ending of this espisode was great with the image of Jack happy playing football with Mr. Friendly. You see the shock on Kate’s face. I wonder if is just bidding his time while he takes care of Ben knowing that it is better to try to get along than sit by Ben’s side all day and be miserable. Or maybe he is coming around to their way of thinking? Doubt it though.

Last thing I noticed was at end of the episode Rousseu was not in the bushes with them. Did she not go over the pylon? At this point if she has a chance to see her daugher you would think it would be worth finally risking her life. Rather then hiding on the island setting traps for the rest of her life.
