That was just sublime. Like a great meal; transcendent in every bite, satisfying at its conclusion, and left me licking the plate and dreaming of the next meal.
Poor Sun, I guess those were real tears at the graveside and not just for public consumption. But I still think Jin's alive. Sawyer is like Jekyll and Hyde; one side the con man, one side the stand-up guy. He's still my favorite character. So, the island is done with Michael apparently. Timing kinda sucks, though. "No he didn't." Jack, broham, pull your head out. Yes. He. Did. (Well, Ben did, anyway.) I loved the shot of everyone in the 'copter swallowing their gum after the big flash. Just brilliant the way they wove the end of the first flashforward we saw into the continuation shown tonight. Des and Penny. Yeah, I got a little something caught in my throat when that happened. And I was just jumping out off the sofa during the Keamy/Sayid Deadly Hands of Lost throwdown. I still think my man Sayid would have taken him in the end, even if Richard hadn't shown up.
MAN, Ben is just a scary mofo when he loses it. "Sometimes, good command decisions are compromised by bad emotional responses." Yeah, that's one way to put it. And then Ben pops up out of the shadows stage left, just when I was sure he was going to show up stage right. And I can just *bet* he "... has a few ideas."
I love this show.
