Seems as though they&#8217;ve started to try to intermingle the different storylines<\/li>\n<li>Pretty spooky twist &#8211; That UnLocke planted the seed in Kate&#8217;s mind that giving Aaron to a crazy woman wouldn&#8217;t end up too well.   Question is, how the heck do they get Aaron into the picture?  Did Widmore bring him?<\/li>\n<li>Those pylons are a lot more high tech than the old ones.<\/li>\n<li>Did you notice that Sawyer came up with the idea that Widmore wants UnLocke?   Widmore didn&#8217;t say a thing about what he really wanted.<\/li>\n<li>They did a cross with Charlie&#8217;s brother in the police station.<\/li>\n<li>Every single time UnLocke asks someone to do something for him, he&#8217;s got another reason for having them do it.   I think UnLocke is completely aware that Sawyer is in this for himself, and sent him precisely because he&#8217;s expendable.  If Sawyer&#8217;s really not on his side, and he loses him, he doesn&#8217;t lose someone that&#8217;s really loyal to him.\n<\/li>\n<li Has anyone reading this been noticing who UnLocke has been touching?  It appeared that Kate choosing not to get up by grasping Locke's hand, and that may be significant.  (Heck, at this point <em>anything<\/em> could be significant).  I know he&#8217;s touched Sawyer, since he grabbed him when he fell on the ladder.  Not sure about anyone else.\n<\/li>\n<li>\nGotta love that Sawyer&#8217;s code word in the sideways flash was &#8220;LaFleur&#8221;\n<\/li>\n<p>All in all, a decent episode.  Certainly not as great as last week&#8217;s, but interesting.  The writer&#8217;s seem to be going down the path of showing how much better everyone&#8217;s life will be on the island, at least for the most part.  Gonna have to reserve judgement based on what we see happen to Kate and Jin.<\/p>\n<p>What did you think of tonight&#8217;s episode?
