This episode of Lost was brought to you by....

Seriously- how many commercials were in this episode? They really broke up the flow- know what else was annoying? The little "V" icon in the bottom of the screen combined with the local New England flooding news, made the Korean subtitles of "The Package" difficult to read.
When we had seen Sun and Jin getting stuck in customs in "LAX", some sharp eared people caught the fact that Sun was referred to as "Ms. Paik" and not "Mrs. Kwon". Now we know for sure- they aren't married in this Sideways world. What is the significance of this? My guess is that it is to show us that Sun is not a Kwon and therefor can not be the "Kwon"candidate from the cave.

On the island, Sun and Jin are still trying to find their way back to each other. Jin realizes the danger of "FLocke" and plans to take off- too bad Widmore's people get to him first. Why take him? And why bring him to Room 23 where Alex's boyfriend Karl was held and subjected to all those crazy messages (which I believe included some stuff about Jacob)?

FLocke goes off to see Sun. I loved Sun back at her garden- we'd almost forgotten about that! Sun isn't buying what Smokey is selling- she runs, he chases. Shouldn't it have been easier for him to catch her? (How great was Sawyer when he said, "can't you just turn into smoke and fly off this island- oh, no that would be crazy!" Sun hits her head, and loses her English. What's up with that? What does this mean?

What is this sonic fence that Widmore's crew is setting up- the one that kept Smokey out of New Otherton- and where do i get one? Brookstone? Is the sonic fence, related to the electromagnetic force? is FLocke somehow related to the electromagnetic force?

Deaths are coming- and not insignificant deaths like Ilana or Zoe
Creepy how FLocke said almost all the names had been crossed out- implied that he neededthem all together, when in reality he's bumping them off. Also going to let his "pet" Claire kill Kate. Is Kate expendable? will she really not make it to the end of the series?
Can Sayid and his soul be saved?
Who will we really be upset to die?

Viewer Mail- My dear Mommy, Esq. mentioned in comments that she is wondering about the whereabouts of Rose and Bernard and that they did not time travel. I disagree. They time travelled too they were just living their "retirement" in peace they way they wanted, with Vincent. Are they Adam and Even skeletons found in caves?

How can you not mention the package itself? My beloved Des all gagged up and no where to go? I couldn't even get to sleep after that cliff hanger. And whats with all these Daddy-Daughter issues? Mr. Paik & Sun, Widmore and Penny, Ben & Alex to name a few. "Fathers be good to your daughters..."

I love the idea of Rose & Bernard as Adam and Eve! Perfect! Not quite caring about Sun & Jin's baby woes, but did love Mikhail as the knowing translator in the bank. That eye just had to go one way or another. I'm bracing for a sad night Tuesday. See you in another life, brutha.

Jo Ellen, I'm so glad that you brought up Mikhail. I was so happy to see him. I love when they throw people in when I am not expecting it. Also, I don't know if I will watch that new show "Happy Town" but I noticed the Other with the beard (can't remember his name right now) is going to be on that show. Glad to have him back somewhere. I miss him, too!
