But then after the episode ended and I thought about it for a bit, it occurred to me that if Jin had left her to escape the sub, there was no way of knowing if he wouldn't be

The writers have an interesting conundrum with Kate. Evangeline Lily's minimum episode involvement notwithstanding, the show operates in a state of denial regarding this character: it treats her as if she's a fan favorite or even useful in any way, which is the exact opposite of how most people feel. Giving her a

Facinelli's sad puppy face alone was worth a write up this week.

I was squirming while Moosh was so spineless for several episodes but the result was well worth it. I forget that that's how he roles: slow pressure buildup until he explodes and burns the motherfucker down.
