I like the expading circles method this season seems to be going with. First we get Jack, Kate, and Sawyer. Next week get those three plus Sun, Jin, and Sayid. Looks like next week we get the hatch folks (pretty much everyone else). Although I am not sure if I saw Hurley in the preview for next week. Poor bastard is trecking it over the island by himself.

1. It's highly likely Jin is not the father of Sun's baby, given his infertility and her affair with her English teacher.

2. Sun is not really a nice person in certain ways. She's a good liar and does so frequently. She's not afraid to shoot somebody. That Sun's not nice was reinforced by blonde lady in the boat. Sun's not wanted by the others, who only take good people. Or something like that.

3. Kate is beginning to annoy me. I am tired of the whole "Kate screws up our plan against the Others by getting held at gunpoint" angle. That's happened three times now? At least she seems like she knows she keeps screwing up.

4. Sawyer was great. The "Cool Hand Luke" references were nice, as was his kiss and taking out those Others.

5. Gotta love incredulous references to the Red Sox and the World Series.

6. Will Jack break?

7. Juliet is intriguing. What's up with her?

8. The Others have contact with the outside world. This suggests they want to be on the island. From last episode we learned they didn't know the plane was gonna crash or cause it to crash, but were quickly able to mobilize to take advantage of it. After doing so, they began to learn all the stuff about the survivors -- details about Jack's wife, Sawyer's real name, etc. Their ultimate purposes are still a mystery.
