We were so close ...

Since this final season is mirroring the first season, apparently, tonight's episode centers around Jack. I bet my prose just drips with excitement tonight.

-- Oh, yay, a Jack episode. Just what I always wanted.
-- Island memories are starting to blur with alternate world memories. :O
-- Who's this douche?
-- LOL Jack has a son? And his hair is as shitty as his father's. The apple didn't fall far from the tree there.
-- "Well, then, we're boned."
-- "Now let me honestly kick your ass."
-- If Boone were here, then he would be able to get Hurley a pen.
-- "The Red Sox blow."
-- "Yeah, I'm reading this to keep up all the allusions to the first season."
-- "Am I really that crappy of a dad?"
-- SOMEONE's divorced.
-- "She smells."
-- "My sister, whoever the hell THAT is?"
-- Of COURSE the black man's the one who has to be kicked.
-- She's remarkably rational for being a jungle woman.
-- "Oh, well let me give you the tour, then!"
-- "... Bitch."
-- Someone needs to translate his speech, post haste.
-- "He's not THAT good a samurai."
-- The "Hurley's trying to be subtle" music is awesome.
-- You know, with all the crazy shit Jack has seen, you'd think he would be more accepting of more crazy shit. BUT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
-- "DON'T TOUCH MY BABY"
-- Jin: "I'VE BEEN LAYING HERE THIS WHOLE TIME HAVEN'T MOVED A BIT NO SIR"
-- Wait, Claire wants to kill whoever has her son? TELL HER KATE HAS THE KID.
-- Poor Claire's gone off the deep end.
-- Well, this episode just turned into a big pile of shit.
-- BAN KATE FROM GOING WITH YOU
-- Haha, fuck off, Kate. You're not invited.
-- Button up, Jack, my god.
-- "He goes through three bottles a day."
-- Jack's mom opens the will, and inside is a card that plays "Never Gonna Give You Up" when it's opened.
-- Well, some things are still the same, I guess!
-- lol Claire's throwing out war stories like nothing.
-- "You're still my friend, right?" "Fuck no, bitch-- I MEAN"
-- Clearly Hurley hasn't been watching these looks into the alternate universe.
-- ... Of course they end up at the caves.
-- What Hurley just said makes about as much sense as everything else we've seen.
-- Jack's son left because Jack brought home the same crappy pizza for the billionth time.
-- "Here's hoping you don't have herpes!"
-- Jack and his son took those pictures before leaving in the 5th inning like every other Dodgers fan.
-- "That's a really crappy reason for coming back."
-- "Welcome to Giant Penis Tower."
-- Annnnnnnnnd axe to the head.
-- Or to the gut. Yuck.
-- "... Could you at least untie me?"
-- And that's why Jack needed to come.
-- That guy looks pretty badass in a suit.
-- "I'm a crappy father, so I don't know how long he has been playing."
-- Jack: "I'm gonna let it go to 109 degrees, only I won't tell him, hehehe."
-- "What a weird mirror."
-- "Well, make him feel like it!"
-- Good going, Jack. That's 28 years bad luck, dumbfuck.
-- And thanks for making sure we didn't get to see who was at 108 degrees. Dick.
-- "Usually when I play the piano, I'm not wearing pants."
-- "Creepy, really."
-- "Room for two on that bike?"
-- "Like Claire. She's really dumb, she'll do WHATEVER you tell her."
-- "Because she is ... ?"
-- ... Jin, you just fucked everyone, didn't you?
-- DAMN IT, JIN, WHY DID YOU TELL CLAIRE YOU WERE LYING
-- DAMN IT DAMN IT DAMN IT
-- KATE COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED, YOU BIG DUMMY

This episode gets an F for teasing the possibility of Kate death. Fuck. Seriously, though, this isn't a bad episode. Jacob's moving the pieces more while Evil Locke gets to be smarmy and act as if nobody knew he would be Claire's friend. Nobody except Jin anyway. Wonder where Sawyer is during all this? Would be kind of funny if Evil Locke just ditched him in the cave. "Yeah, you stay there for a while; I have to go out."

So, yeah, I wonder who is No. 108. Desmond? Widmore? Some random asshole who hasn't appeared yet/appeared for a very short time? There's probably some hint that I missed because I don't obsessively pore over every frame like some of Lost's crazier fans. I prefer to have them do my work for me.

I wonder if Jacob doesn't give a crap about anyone who is at the temple, or if he believes there is some way they can at least hold off Evil Locke. Just as long as Sayid continues living. Sacrifice Kate, plz. Do me this favor, Lost. I've been a loyal fan. Repay me.
