Just fantastic. I’m gonna break this for the benefit of my friends who don’t 0-day the show.

I teared up twice. Such was the writing, I was honestly afraid that we might lose Michael Emerson from the show and then later, I was convinced that Ben was going to join Team Smoke.

Sideways wise, this episode was not unlike Sundown - In both timelines, both Sayid and Ben embrace their true nature. Sayid is ultimately not a good person. But Ben is.

And the luscious duality of Richard losing his faith and Jack simultaneously gaining his.

All the hate for Sundown last week bugged the hell out of me - that creative team know exaclty what it’s doing. In Darlton we trust.
