S3 Ep2 "The Glass Ballerina"

(started 5/21/10 10:30)

Sayid's plan was weak for someone with military intelligence in his background. He assumes that no matter how many Others come out to get them, he and Jin will be able to take all comers. (Does he know if Jin know martial arts like ALL asians are supposed to, from birth?) How does he know they won't be able to see the sailboat and make a beeline for that instead of the fire he's setting?

Sun is relegated to the boat. One of the Others (Trixy from Deadwood) discovers her aboard the boat, and Sun shoots her in the gut. Did Sun get those kinds of lessons too" Sun makes her escape. The Others get away with the boat, and Sayid, Sun, and Jin are stranded.

======

PCL Sun gets discovered by her father in the hotel room with Jae and he dispatches Jin to do some dirtywork, and Jin doesn't know the real reason why. Sun doesn't tell Jin about the affair (remember she swears this when she tells him of the miracle pregnancy on the island).

Jin can't bring it upon himself to kill Jae (he'll never make it as a thug) but instead he scares the crap of him, leaving him with the warning to get out of the country. Jae jumps out the window.

=============

Meanwhile back at prison, Sawyer & Kate are made to break rocks and push around dirt. Sawyer creates a diversion by kissing Kate. He manages to get a gun, but he's tasered. When commiserating the details to Kate through the wall, Ben sees it all on video surveillance, so Sawyer has already tipped his hand on this.

Ben tells Jack he has been on thie island his whole life. He gives him an update on current events from the outside world. Jack will not believe him that the Red Sox won the world series, so he shows him a playback. (Damn, he and Dad can't use that phrase anymore.) He plays Let's Make A Deal with Jack. If he cooperates he gets to go home. Not a whole lot of details are given.
