one thing i haven't seen mentioned in this thread...

on the radio with kate, does jack ever say anything about taking sawyer with her? does he intend for sawyer to get away?

[/ QUOTE ]

I really didnt get this either. At first Im thinking "ok hes gonna pull a corney selfless act of kindness move and set free the two love birds." But then he doesnt say anything about her taking sawyer with him. If the writers intended for it to be a package deal, they really screwed up. As the episode aired jack kinda looks like an ass thats being indirectly selfish, if that makes sense.

Do you really think Jack thinks they will let him off the island if he asks for it? He doesn't trust them. Jack is playing them all for fools.

Here's my prediction for next episode.

Kate: I can't! There is nowhere to go jack! We aren't on the same island.

Jack: What, what do you mean Kate? Did they put you up to this? Are they holding a gun to your head telling you to say this?

Kate: blah blah blah [cleavage shot] blah blah

Jack: Kate, I know they are putting you up to this so, I'm going to let Ben die. You think this is a game? You think I'm bluffing?

[But then Jack doesn't let Ben die and then they become friends and team up to fight the common enemy.]

[Msgr. Martinez]

I think that Jack intends for both Kate and Sawyer to escape, not just Kate. I also think that Jack acted like he was only looking out for himself, and acted like he was hurt by seeing Kate and Sawyer together so that Ben would think that Jack was playing right into the Others' hands. I think the point is that Jack has realized that he can't escape through brute force, and that he can outsmart Ben and the Others if he allows himself to.

IMO Jack is easily the best character on the show.

Ben is hands down the best character on the show right now, although I get the feeling that the more we learn about him and the less mysterious he is, the less I'll like him.

Just in case you guys forgot, this is the story Jack was referencing from episode 1:

[ QUOTE ]
Jack: "When I was in residency, my first solo procedure was a spinal surgery on a 16year-old kid. A girl. And at the end after 13 hours I was closing her up and I accidentally ripped the girdle sack. It's right at the base of the spine where all the nerves come together. Membranes, [unintelligible] tissue. So it ripped open. Nerves just spilled out of her like angelhair pasta. Spinal fluid spilling out of her. The terror was just... so crazy... so real... and I knew I had to deal with it. So I just made a choice. I'd let the fear in, let it take over, let it do its thing, but only for five seconds. That's all I was going to give it. So I started to count....1...2...3...4...5. And it was gone. I went back to work, sewed her up, and she was fine."

Kate: "If that were me, I would have run for the door."

Jack: "No, I don't think that's true. You're not running now"

juliette is a fertility doctor...

so that would mean med school etc...she's got to be what mid 30's?

So you figure she has only been on the island for like 6-10 years.

[/ QUOTE ]

Maybe there's a med school on the island...

[/ QUOTE ]

She probably took an online course

Not only that, Jack represents the return of a deep, quality, traditional "good guy" to modern television. There really has only been one other in the past few years. (hint: the other one is not on network TV)
