LOST "The Whole Truth" Airdate: March 22, 2006
Screw this episode and bring on next week. While tonight's LOST wasn't all that thrilling, it did have a few moments toward the end, especially when Henry Gale descibes how, if he WERE one of the "Others," he would send Anna, Sayid, and Charlie into a trap and the Others would be able to trade them for him.
Let's back up a bit. I have a feeling that even though Sun promises Jin that she has never been with anyone else, we are going to find out later the "miracle baby" belongs to her English teacher, Mr. Lee. Call it a hunch... call it that fact that every damn one of 'em has a skeleton in their closet. I had forgotten about the epsisode where Jin comes home with blood on his hands. He works as a hitman for Sun's father. I can add him to my list of Lostaways who have killed someone.
I thought it was pretty funny that it was brought to their own attention that "Jack and Locke were too busy worrying about Locke and Jack." Their own pride and race to be in charge is what ultimately lead to the lack of trust from Anna and sent her, Sayid, and Charlie into what may be an ambush. In the preview for next week, it appears that they do find a balloon so I can't wait to see how it all plays out.
Not a big night for Hurley, eh? Wasn't he eating something the last time we saw him. I'm not sure what kind of candy bar he was eating and I wasn't able to get a clear screen capture of it. I also don't think that the candy has any relevance,Sun's pregnancy test, on the other hand, did. It's manufactured by Widmore Labs. Widmore Construction was featured in "Fire + Water" (Jan, 2006). I totally missed that the first time because I was concentrating on the Baptism of Christ angle. This Widmore Construction/Widmore Labs will play a much bigger role in the next few episodes.
Sawyer lead this week's Lost book club and he appeared to be burried deep into "Are You There God? It's Me Margaret" by Judy Bloom. What did he say when Sun asked him how's the book? "Predictable... not nearly enough sex..." The book, if you never read it as a child, is about a young girl entering puberty (on the surface). But if you dig deeper, you find that it is also about a young persons personal relationship with God.
There was also mention of the book from the last new episode. I know it's been a while so let me re-cap. It was Dostoevsky's "The Brothers Karamazov" and...
...my wife is making me go to bed so I will finish this later on Thursday.

I wondered about that too. My only beef with that is the fact that the castaways have been out there for the better part of 50 days. If Mr. Lee is the father of Sun's unborn child, wouldn't we have seen more symptoms of this earlier?
I was thinking like Aaron was too. But we see the happy face of Sun as she hugs Jin - BUT also a very concerned type look in there too. Which indicated to me that There's still something not so happy in the picture, there's something else - and why do you think she was so hesitant to tell Jin about the pregnancy??
Very interesting about Widmore Labs. (I'll look it up in Lostpedia.com!!)
My wife and I were discussing the pregnancy math as well. It was mentioned in "Maternity Leave" that they have been on the island for 60 days. She would have had to sleep with Mr. Lee the night before she got on the plane. Both Sun & Jin were in Australia heading for America as they ran from Sun's father, right? I need to check out season one again. This is why they showed "House of The Rising Sun" again, isn't it? To help us draw our timelines and conclusions. Maybe the backstory of Sun & Mr. Lee was in there to throw us off? Maybe it's Michael's baby? Hmmmmmmmmmmmm...dum dum daaaaaaaaaa... The plot thickens. I choose not to use the phrase "immaculate conception." Sure, it would be a "miracle" for her to get pregnant by Jin, but it would not be immaculate conception. Some one suggested that maybe Charlie raped her when he kidnapped her a few epsidodes ago. He might be a low life junkie who is easily manipulated by the likes of Sawyer, but I don't see Charlie stooping that low.
Leslie and Tony's theory, that is if Locke got the ability to walk back, then maybe the island holds some sort of magic to give Jin some swimmers......
