Recap: Recon

Sorry for my lack of updates. To be quite honest, I have concluded that I will not figure out the end game of Lost. The writing is brilliant and designed to surprise. With that said, here are some things that were awesome about tonight's episode!

1. I knew that Sawyer wasn't a con man in the flash sideways! Accurate predictions are few and far between, so I'm stoked.

2. I'm a little pumped because I think we got confirmation that Claire wasn't infected. Despite her crazy tirade, it was all real, and likely what a person in her circumstances would do. I think the hostiles (temple folk) believed her to be infected because for an unknown reason (Smokey told her they had Aaron) she was out to get them. Also, it seems that a truly infected individual (Sayid) does not act-out emotionally, and essentially does whatever Smokey wants. Claire however acted emotionally and that was not how Smokey wanted her to behave.

3. No but for reals, Sawyer, what are you doing? This "you and me freckles, we're gettin' off the island" balogna gotsa go! I understand if he is interested in the safety of his 815 compadres, but just Kate? Let's not go here again.

4. On the other hand, this seems to prove that Sawyer is not infected, or under the spell of Smokey, which is a relief!

5. Lost weirds me out sometimes. By chance, I had just looked up the actress who played Zoe, because 'Singles' was on tv, and I thought she was familiar. She hasn't been in like anything since 'Singles' in the early 90's, and now, here she is on Lost. Just coincidence.

6. Where the heck does old Widmore fit into this Smokey vs. Jacob business? I have no idea. I think for certain he's on the same level as Ben. I'm guessing that this will end in a face-off of sorts for these two. Perhaps now that the 'Jacob and Smokey can't kill each other rule' has been broken via loophole, then maybe Widmore and Ben can have a whack at each other.

7. The scenes from next week gave me crazy chills. It's pretty much guaranteed to answer some questions about Richard!!!!! EEEEEKKKK!!!!!
