Juliet Burke

If Jin hadn’t thrown little Ben in the DHARMA van, he would’ve changed history. Why did he try to save him? Did he buy into Daniel’s bit about not changing the past? If Daniel hadn’t insisted that, would he have still tried to save Ben? Sure, it would’ve created a monster paradox and possibly destroyed the entire space-time continuum, but I would’ve been tempted to leave him there to die.

So now we’re going to see what it is that Sawyer asked Kate to do when she got off the island. Aaron, meet Clementine? Kate is awfully trusting of Cassidy to tell her everything about the island.

As expected, Juliet is working on Ben.

LOL @ Hurley explaining the potential paradox via Back to the Future. Way to go, Miles, explaining to Hurley (and the fans) how Sayid always shot young Ben… but they just didn’t know the whole story until now.

Sawyer comes to fetch Jack the surgeon, and Jack has again decided not to push the button. I mean, he’s choosing to let Ben bleed out and die… and potentially stop them all from existing, as pondered by Hurley and Miles.

Jack has given up on trying to fix things. At least he’s given up the savior complex, but he’s still quite obnoxious. Kate, on the other hand, is going to donate blood to Ben. This is so weird.

Roger isn’t as dumb as he looks. He knows that Ben took his keys. He knows that Ben was the one who busted Sayid out of jail.

I really like the conversation between Hurley and Miles. They’re explaining the things that the people on the LOST-TV forums and elsewhere online have been discussing… and they’re putting it out there for the people who don’t participate in the fan forums so that maybe they can understand what’s going on.

Juliet says that maybe the Others can help save Ben. She would know this because she becomes one of them, so she knows what Richard and the other island natives can do.

I could feel the panic rising in my chest as Kate was running through the grocery store looking for Aaron. I have a 3 year old blond boy myself. I was getting ready to type up how my son would totally change his mind from milk to a juice box mid-store… and probably change it back after I bought the juice boxes… and then I couldn’t tear my eyes away from the screen until Kate found Aaron!

So Sawyer is going to help Kate. I guess he has a few liberties as head of security. He can make up his own story about what happened.

Cassidy’s theory: Kate took Aaron to mend her broken heart?

“No matter what he’s gonna grow up to be, it’s wrong to let a kid die.” Said Juliet to Sawyer. Who is saving Ben for Juliet. Not for Kate. Ouch, Kate.

Juliet has Jack cornered in the shower. It’s become pretty clear that Juliet is right for Sawyer. Jack and Juliet were not meant to be, and apparently neither were Sawyer and Kate. I’m still a total SKATE fan, though.

They’re violating the truce, but Sawyer is demanding to see Richard Alpert. Will we get to see what makes him so special? Why he doesn’t seem to age? How can Richard save Ben?

So Kate got on the plane to find Claire. She went back to find Aaron’s real mommy. But I don’t think she’s right about Claire being alive.

Richard says, “If I take him, he’s not ever going to be the same again… His innocence will be gone. He will always be one of us.” Dude, what are you going to do to the kid? And why should he talk to Elie first? (Eloise?)

It’s the Temple.

It’s Ben… in 2009. Locke to Ben: “Welcome back to the land of the living.”

I saw these words in Ben’s eyes. “Am I in Hell?”
