Oh, what an excellent thought! That would be sooooo wicked cool! ;D See, as much as I really want to see a mother/daughter reunion, I kind of like imagining Rousseau just using it for random, meaningless chores. Coming by to pick it up, sort of like she's marking it off her shopping list . . . "Gather wood: Check. Set trap for supper: Check. Pick up another box of dynamite: Check. Make bed: Check. Use dynamite to blast through wall of cave to make bedroom seem more open and airy: Check . . . ." And did that scene between her and Locke remind anyone of the Buffy and Amy scene... "Hi Amy, how've you been?" "Rat. You?" "Dead." ;D

So, I'm thinkin' it's pretty likely Locke's dad is Sawyer's Sawyer. Why else bring James all the way out there? Yeah, I was pretty certain of that, myself, a couple of minutes into the episode. I very much liked that Sawyer puked his guts out, despite having fulfilled a burning need for justice and revenge he's felt for most of his life. When he dropped the envelope to the floor, I thought, "well, yeah, he won't be needing it anymore, will he?" Heh... Rousseau. "Dynamite. You?" "Brig-usage" "Well, have a good torture!" "Have fun blowing something up! I find it very theraputic, myself." So is anyone else feeling... a little askance, that the Crazy French Lady has dynamite? And I think Juliet and Jack are cahooting: that's the secret that Juliet wants to share with her one true woobie Kate there on the beach, when Jack says it's not time yet. Ben needs to be.. oh, I can't THINK of anything bad enough to do to Benry. But he needs it done to him. Twice. And that stretch of I-10? As I recall, it's sorta sparse on Jersey Barriers. I'll ask my brother tomorrow: he drives it every day to and from work. Eh. I'm picking at gnats: LockeDaddy could always have hit an off-ramp dividing barrier or something. GOLLY but what a fantastic episode!!!! Woohoo! *can't wait 'till next week* *Is all eager and stuff, to see what else is up, because they've blown up half the interesting stuff on the Island, already.* *Is hoping that J.J goes for a full fourth season and isn't distracted by some other bright shiny object*

It's a shame that the writers are dismissing the "Purgatory" theory. Because I feel that is the only thing that can save the convoluted mess LOST's storyline has become.

Kristin (from eonline) really liked this ep.
I liked her comment here:
Nerd Alert! A Star Wars fan friend emailed me to dish that when Princess Leia was being kept as a slave girl, she used her chains to strangle her captor, Jabba the Hut, just like Sawyer used chains to strangle Cooper to death.
I'm guessing the parallel is plenty intentional (given the multiple and massive Star Wars posters I've seen in Damon Lindelof's office), and I love the irony of slaves strangling their masters with the chains that once bound them.

So, interesting thing. It looks like Oceanic Airlines has been taken over by another company, and is now called... HansoAir.Somehow, the notion they actually found the right plane has slightly less credibility now, doesn't it?

So, Hanso may have either faked the plane crash with no survivors, or just faked up the report of finding the plane. Interesting... ETA: Thank you for posting the link, O PanUniversal Voice of Reason. There actually seems to be a fiendish plan here. I feel slightly more optimistic knowing that.

**nods** Shows us that he's more complex than just revenge guy. Heeee! Wasn't that just perfect? Like they were meeting up at the corner store and catching up or something. And he was whittling!! OMG, how perfect was that? He . . . he actually deserves to have Locke oust him and replace him, actually. That would just destroy him, I think. ;D Oooh, but there's still so many exciting places yet to be blown up! "John Locke needs your vote in the January 2005 Craphole Island Others Election! He'll run on a platform of miracles and a total lack of spiritual or ethical ambiguity! Getting your karmic crap done and the blood sacrifices you need executed, without muss or fuss for you!" Paid for by John Locke for warrior-shaman-chieftan of the Four-Toed God campaign. Miracles and unambigous lack of ethics! Woo hoo! He's a shoo-in for sure. ;D

Oh, I can think of a bunch of wacky ways they could still go. Plus, the fact that they are dismissing the theory might very well mean it's how they intend to go. ;D Just to mess with our minds. Ah, fun in the wacky Lostverse!

Also "disappearances of several Pacific Ocean flights" stood out to me as well.
