So.
Ben said he would tell John who his "man on the boat" was. I glanced at the clock and said, "Look, Hubs! There's a whole 21 minutes left in the show! I think we're actually going to find out who the man on the boat is!"
You'd think I know this show by now.
Twenty-one minutes later and all we have is Ben walking across the lawn with clean sheet and towels. Well, and then there's me, standing in my living room, shouting "JUST TELL WHO THE MAN ON THE DAD-BLAMED BOAT IS!"
I mean, I know it's Michael. It has to be. But I just really need the writers to confirm that for me.
That darn show. Oh, how they toy with me. And I just love it.
Here are a few random comments/questions from tonight's show:
What did Ben mean about the rabbit (the one John served him) having a number? A lab rabbit, I guess?
What is the deal with the creepy therapist appearing in the jungle with the weird voices? It's those same voices that appear with Walt. Does this mean the therapist is dead? Are the voices a sign of some psychic power Ben has to work inside people's minds?
Speaking of Ben, just when I think he can't get any spookier, he does. He scares me more every week. Poor Juliet. I think this is first episode in which I fully sympathized with her. I didn't trust her, until tonight.
But holy shmokes, did you see the look of jealousy on her face when Jack tended to Kate's head wound? If looks could kill, Kate would be a goner.
Early in the episode, the creepy therapist told Juliet, "You look just like her." Just like whom? Ben's mom? Leave it to Ben to have some weird Oedipal complex.
So, if Ben is a bad guy, and his enemy is Widmore, then that would (presumably) make Widmore a good guy. (See how my simple little mind works?) But if Widmore is a good guy, then why was he so awful to Desmond? And what are the WEIRD odds that his daughter's boyfriend would end up stranded on the exact island he was searching for?
Could the whole thing be any more randomly, cosmically, spookily, eerily, wonderfully inter-connected? Oh how I love this show.
Okay, Losties. Fire away with your thoughts about tonight's episode.
