I give it a C+. I really wanted a few more answers and just got more questions. I wanted them to get to Jacob's cabin.

I loved when Sawyer called Miles, "Donger". That cracked me up. The Donger was by far the best character on Sixteen Candles.

There has to be a larger reason as to how he got sick -- no reason for them to hype it up at the beginning of the episode (especially with Rose claiming that "no one gets sick, not on this island.", and Bernard responding dryly, "What, so you think he upset the Gods or something?")

What happened with Locke when he couldn't walk anymore? Could the same thing have happened with Jack? I don't totally remember that.

Jack is trying really hard to get people off the island...could it be the island "made" him sick? I think Locke was trying to get off the island when he was paralyzed again for a brief time...since then he has been trying to stay on the island? Just a theory.

While the episode wasn't action packed, I liked it.

On a side note: I started rewatching Season 1 and damn is it good!

As for Charlotte speaking Korean, she is an anthropologist so that at least partially explains that I think.

This will also draw in more viewers from Korea.

The flash forward didn't have much punch for me and where's the drama of surgery when you already know he survives? Plus, he's going to try to direct her on his own surgery? Give me a break, Jack.

That said, there were moments of intrigue and things might come together in the future because of episodes like tonight. I think it's really tough when there's so many different storylines, locations, characters going on at once and there seems to be more going on now than ever before. Oh well, not every episode can be a classic.

Maybe they are trying to stretch the show out another year with whining.

I thought the "cloud" killed all the fighters from the freighter last week, and now they are all alive! I give this show a B, if only becuase of the scene in the hall with Kate!

Glad to see I wasn't the only one who didn't love the episode. I hate that the freighter commandos are still alive, and I really want to see Sawyer and Locke and Ben. Those characters hold more intrigue for me. Also Hurley and Sajid. What happens to "Kevin Johnson"? Looks like we see more of that next week too.

I for one am glad Keamy is alive. I have a feeling he and Sawyer are going to duke it out. Cant wait!

That would be epic. I wish it was just Tree that was alive though and everybody else were slain.

Ok, that would be awesome.

Another question...when Jack visits Hurley and he tells him "You aren't supposed to raise him", does he mean this because Claire is still alive and IS supposed to raise him? Is that why they have to go back (at least in part)?

Probably. Remember the psychic told Claire that she shouldnt let anyone raise that baby but her.

Ok, how about this one...will the spillover crowd from Grey's Anatomy start calling him "McKeamy" ?

You need some sleep my friend =)

Since Miles saw Claire take off with Christian, I wonder if Miles will be the one to put the puzzle together of Jack and Claire being related. I kind of like how the introduced Miles. His ability to connect with the spirits will be handy.

I DO need some sleep.

I think maybe we do get to see Miles show his stuff. I mean, otherwise, it just doesn't matter what he can do. I watched the "enhanced" version of Yi Jeon today. As I watch these episodes again, I realize how much has not been revealed yet. The episode really plays up the idea that Ben is the one behind the fake wreckage.

And the way Hurley says "Good" after asking if anyone else is coming and Sun says no is kind of creepy. I read in an interview that he wasn't sure quite how to play it and I think they did different takes, as they usually do because the actors are in the dark too a lot of the time.
