Found the original Sawyer? Nicki - you are on a roll, tonight! I like the idea that he might have found, or been chasing, the original Sawyer. And could you move a little to the left, I'm trying to aim my rotten tomato . . .

Tonight, I'd award the mantle to Kate. She didn't let her dislike for Sawyer get in the way of her empathy, or attempting to understand him. And despite how she felt about what they did to Sawyer, she doesn't seem to be holding on to any animosity toward Jack and Sayid. Yep! Really liking Kate a lot in this ep. (Darn it! She gets Sawyer. She gets Jack. She get Sayid. Why can't I hate her!?) Oops. I think I'm channeling Spring there. Lola

I don't know if it's her, but it is someone who's been there long enough to have electricity. Unless it's a flashback.... ETA--Ah: Reading on, I see LilRed has already proposed the same idea. Very likely, then: there are at least two of us who thought of that. And "Sawyer" as Spike...nah, don't see it yet. But I'm willing to wait.

*sneaks up behind Nicki while she's wiping off Patti's fruit stains, tickles her and steals half her smarty mcsmart pants brains* Hey, I have mega more meetings and work stuff tomorrow! I need all the brains I can get! ;D Lola Just to be all on topic-y. So, Jin is realizing there is a bit more going on than just his worry about Sun flashing a bit too much skin. But how long can she hide English? I kind of liked his final look at her when she was putting the eucalyptis on Shannon. Like he was suddenly remembering a bit of respect for her, seeing her real skills like that. I'm frustrated with her. She should have told him long before now, and I hope we see it happen soon

Why does my head hurt?

Unless it's a flashback.... that was my first impression. I'm taping something else now so I can't check.

My thoughts about the letter are that Sawyer (I'm gonna keep calling him that since I don't know his name.) isn't ready to give up his hatred of the man that destroyed his family. But I suppose that he could also hate himself. Although from the flashbacks, we're led to believe that he walked away from the deal. You know, we didn't find out why he was in Australia. All of the other flashbacks, we were given reasons for people being in Australia. Nice catch there, LilRed. I hadn't thought of the fact that we didn't see him in Australia. I know we've still got lots more back story possible for all of them, but I now I am really wondering why no Australia connection for Sawyer yet? Is that gonna prove to be very very important, I wonder? Lola

Found the original Sawyer? Another good possibility! But do you think that he would still be so hung up on the letter if he had found him? And, I so didn't guess what this letter would be! They've been hinting at this letter for a few eps now, and none of my guesses came close.

I'm getting the vibes that it's not going to be so daring and innovative as BtVS. It can't be in some ways - it's on ABC. I'm getting those vibes from what seems to me to be lesser quality in the writing - not so sharp, daring, or clever or subtle. I can't imagine a Lost equivalent of "Hush" or "The Body" or "OMWF" or some others. Definitely - I am talking about my own personal "first impressions" and reactions. I know it's not going to strike everyone this way, and I may change my mind as time passes and there is more "gelling." Perhaps , but I think it might have some of it's own stellar episodes. I thought that Walkabout was masterfully done and the surprise ending ...well surprised me! I really don't think we can compare it to BtVS becausae it'sa different kind of story told in a very different way. The emphasis is not so much on the dialogue while still dramatically showing the character interactions.And frankly, tho' it's heresy I suppose, BtVS could get a little too talky sometimes. Vlad

Vlad I have to say that I'm really liking this show. Walkabout was my favorite ep so far because it had such a surprising ending. I never saw that coming, not at any point during the episode. Some of the other episodes, I've been able to figure out before the ending (maybe only seconds before, but still...), but not Locke being able to walk. Anyways, I really appreciate a show that gets me thinking about it!
