Wasn't that sweet. So out of all the people that go bad Ben becomes good and lives. I like how they decided not to just kill him after all. I almost shed a tear.

So Kate is offically a badie. Ben is offically good. Jack can stop dynamite with his mind. Richard can't die less someone kills him, he also has secrets that he still won't shed light on. Nine episodes left I really would like to know more about Richard, anyone else get really nervous tonight when we thought that Jack was just going to kill him and we would never know "the Richard secrets"? Or was that just me?

This whole theme of Jacob being god, Jack being jesus, smokey being satan, etc is really starting to show. Notice the "good guys" back on the beach? Is that surpose to be the "test spot", the non cheating spot with no refrigerators and houses that will eventually lead them to salvation?

Charles Widmore has finally found the island again, interesting.

The egyptian symbol that had the secret passage way was "shen" meaning to protect. I wonder if they will do more with the whole egyptian hieroglyphics part of the show than just this.

Cause i like hieroglyphics.

Before each new episode, they replay last week's episode with popups. In tonight's "recap" episode, they specifically said Kate joined Locke.

You were really disappointed with tonight's episode? Man, I thought it was great! Definitely the best episode yet this season. Got some answers on a bunch of things. I thought the moment between Ben and the chick at the end was really great. And in the alternate timeline, when Ben's father said that they had already gone to the island but left! And is it just me, or did Alex get hot? And the moment between Richard and Jack during the dynamite showdown! Jack's purpose is finally becoming clear to him. And Widmoore! Everything is finally coming together, and getting good!

I haven't fully digested everything from tonight's episode, but I think tonight was a turning point. We're gonna be in for a good ride from here on out.

"This is the first time Kate has seen the "ressurected" John Locke and she knows Locke is on the wrong side" is the last said in the recap episode. That makes me think that she hasn't actually joined them, but they do also say "Now Locke has acquired the remaining Others, Sayid, Claire, and Kate" which is conflicting, right?

I dunno, the episode was good as a stand-alone episode for all the reasons you listed, I just expect more to happen in these last 10 episodes. I remember watching tonight's episode and fast-forwarding through some commercials and noticing I was 45 min into the episode and wondering "what the fuck, nothing big has happened".

I agree that things are looking up and getting good, but that's the same feeling I had after the last episode, "Sundown", and thinking this one with Ben would be amazingly good. So I dunno, just feels like getting setup for mediocrity once again.

My own personal highlight for this episode was due to myself. In one of the last scenes when Jack, Richard, and Hurley arrive at the beach and Sun runs towards Hurley I just thought to myself "wouldn't it be awesome if this is where they answer the questions of which Kwan is the candidate because Hurley's fatass trips and falls and crushes Sun to death". But maybe that's just me...
