Haha yessssss, I loved that that was thrown in there!
I've gotta say, I wasn't a fan of the last two episodes, but this one really redeemed the show in my mind. I am not really a big fan of the new wave of survivors plotline from the Aija/Ajia (or whatever airlines) plane crash.
I guess we'll get to see how the "natives/Others" DHARMA coup/war goes...that should be interesting.
I'm also interested to see if the show just progresses from the 70s onward, so we get the history of the island and more explanations and the season or show will end with the Oceanic crash, or if there will be more time traveling (or some other confusing, made-up way of further convoluting the story--there are just no rules for this show).
I liked that they'd showed Charlotte as a little kid, but did the writers really have to have Daniel say "Charlotte..." I thought that spoiled the moment. These writers make some of the craziest, most ridiculous plot lines, and then when there is something that really strikes a good balance between being obvious and easy to figure out and a nice, subtle moment, they have to go and ruin it with some obvious line. Couldn't they just leave it at the slo-mo running redheaded kid, and then show Daniel with a knowing, thoughtful look? Give the viewers some credit! Sorry for the tangent here, but I feel like there are a lot of these annoying, obvious, trite, lines throughout the show (in all of the seasons) that really infuriate me. These lines are usually spoken by Jack, although whether that's coincidence or just part of his (kinda boring, one-note) character. E.g., 2 weeks ago, when E. Hawking was explaining the island location machine at the Lampost, and she says "They stopped looking for where the island was, and started looking for where it was going to be," and Jack responds, "What do you mean, where it was going to be?" Ugh, these lines are way too watered down and dumbed down for such a complicated show! There are a ton more examples I could give ("if we can't live together, we're gunna die alone"

comes to mind as well). Sorry for the tangent, I was just wondering if anyone else ever felt this way about the show.
