The Hunting Party

Is anyone else as frustrated as I am about everyone's lack of communication? Like, I know you people all have your issues and you're all Men Alone, so to speak, but for the love of god would it kill someone to toss the others a bone for one second? Michael: Oh hey, someone's typing to me on this crazy computer. Jack: Wow, crazy Other guy, tell me more about this island THAT YOU LIVE ON. And yes, we would LOVE to go home; care to help? Kate: Well, Jack why doesn't Hurley watch the computer and I'll come with because I always come with anyway. Plus Sawyer's, y'know, BLEEDING and all.

Okay, on to the goodies!

We know Jack's wife, Sarah, is a cheating McCheaterton. As RealGirl reports the boardies are saying, "Now what are the chances she was seeing someone on the island? That's right, 100%!"

And who would that handsome fellow be? Could it be Jack's running buddy cum local psycho? The boardies' tongues are wagging! This is a screenshot from Ravenscraft showing Desmond and his girl in a pic on Desmond's mantel. While people were maybe saying it was Sarah, a comparison Ravenscraft makes is to the woman trying to adopt Claire's baby.

Or is that too freakin' obtuse?

RealGirl also finds the boardies taking issue with Jack appoaching Ana Lucia about getting troops together. "Wouldn't it make more sense to ask, oh I don't know, a trained soldier about training an army?" Good point. I take issue with the fact that he wants to start a war based on his own agenda and without asking any good questions when he had the chance. Current administration much? Lame. Why can't Locke go hang with Zeke for a bit and get some answers? Like, do we REALLY have to keep pressing this button? (If so, wouldn't they have some leverage against the Others?)

I'll be honest, I didn't pick up much this episode. We were wondering at the end whether the previews for next week's episode, where Aaron does through some sort of Moses trip down the ocean, will speak to the growing Christianity theme. Remember Mr. Eko brought up Moses and Aaron in the last episode.

Now things gathered from our gorgeous Boardies Correspondent:

1. The Others mention Alex, the French woman's daughter.

2. Zeke quoted Alvar Hanso!

"From the dawn of our species, Man has been blessed with curiosity. Our most precious gift, without exception, is the desire to know more - to look beyond what is accepted as the truth and to imagine what is possible."

- Alvar Hanso, Address to the U.N. Security Council, 1967

3. Jack didn't have tattoos in the flashbacks when he got married, but now he's got them. There's speculation we'll get another flashback someday about the tattoos.

There is also this site chronicling the mural art in the hatch and comparing it to Claire's boyfriend's art, as well as some of the art in Jack's house. Bizarre!
