"Re-re-re-re-con"

There was a lot of conning going on in this episode! For me, this is one of those transitional installments that takes me from one train of thought about the show into another. One of those "things that make you go Hmmm" episodes. So I wasn't really sure how to intelligently analyze this one, and I'm not sure that I want or need to just yet. Although some thought bubbles did come to mind during the show.


I don't want to make light of anyone's appearance, but I surely hope that R.M. hasn't succumbed to the Hollywood stereotypical lollipop-head-on-a-stick image disorder. Her thinness in the ep almost frightened me for her.





For some reason I also don't feel the need to figure out the details of Sawyer's con/reverse-con/doubleback-con on Widmore and Flocke. I think that I'll just sit back and enjoy it as it unfolds, in the hopes that it's something really delicious and worth the wait. Other than that, I'm stumped by this one. Was anyone else affected in the same way?

You know, until now, I hadn't even thought about Mrs. Littleton. Guess I'm used to Kate being all about Kate. I guess my post will be up at EMS tomorrow, almost in time for the next episode.

Funny dialogue you got here.

Great captions, Capcom! One WOULD think that the first thing Kate would tells Claire is that Aaron is with his Grandma!!!!

I, too, am just basically going with the flow and trust Darlton!

Tx friends. :-)

Lots of us gave TPTB the benefit of the doubt when Kate didn't tell Claire in the temple during the attack, but criminee, they are hanging out in the jungle all night and day, and it doesn't occur to her to mention anything? Kate doesn't know that Gramma Littleton was in a coma, but once she tells Claire that she's with Aaron, Claire will know that her mum's OK now and it might make a difference in her 'sickness", I dunno. Just not realistic IMO, but I could be wrong.

Sure missing your thoughtful posts. Not the only Lost blogger to give up the ghost, what's going on?
