I must say, this is the most disappointing, least cliff-hang-ery mini-season finale ever. It's also the first mini-season finale I've ever heard of, so I don't guess that's saying much. I guess I was expecting a "full" season finale-type episode, and it didn't live up to that. Overall, I thought it was a pretty boring episode. The back story, while it contained Mal, was unspectacular. Kate got married to a cop. Crazy.

There were a few interesting points though...

• Jack turns the tables on Juliette and Ben. I'm glad he didn't give in and do what Juliette wanted. How could he possibly know who to trust? Better that he took things into his own hands to gain some control of the situation. Jack the hero. Suck it David.
• Alex shows up again, among the Others. She takes a bunch of them out with a slingshot. Not a homemade slingshot, like a store purchased one. Weird. Of all the things for Dharma to bring to the island. Anyway, they capture her, and send her back 'home'. I assume this means they put her back on the main island. They seem to tolerate her. How'd she get to Other Island (tm) though?
• Locke seeing "Lift up your eyes and look North - John" was pretty funny. Will we find the pirate in a northern hatch? That is all I will be saying about the death of Eko. Fuckers.
• Lastly, Jacob's list. Danny says Jack wasn't "on Jacob's list". Who is Jacob, what kind of list was he making. Presumably, it's a list of 'good' people, though we still don't know what they're good for.

That's not a lot to hold us over for the next 3 months. Daylight, or whatever, better be good. -
