So Ben Linus is ultimately good? Is that what we learned from last night's episode? I'm happy with that if that's the case. I think it is good for Ben to really act on his own accord. My god, wasn't that scene when he cried out, "He's the only one who'll have me?" so wonderful. Everyone is great on the show, but I've always really enjoyed Michael Emerson. The character of Ben Linus could've been way too over the top or too sinister, but I have had many, many emotions about Ben over the years and they are never the same from episode to episode.
I think there is something to the characters that have truly take a 360 in the series. Not counting Flocke, because he's not John Locke anymore. I am thinking more about Ben, who went from confident to scared shitless to completely insecure to maybe even happy and accepted(?). And Sawyer. Wow. He's not even the same character from the series premiere. I can't wait to see his sideways story.
Maybe it does come down to who Jacob touched. Did Jacob touch Sayid? Did he touch Kate? Maybe it is about what you choose to do after Jacob touches you. He told Kate to be good, but Kate wasn't good. What did he tell Sayid? I can't remember. Did Jacob ever touch Ben?
Why did Jacob want to kill the Dharma Iniative? Remember when Richard reaches out to young Ben and the older Ben gasses the whole place? That was obviously done in the name of Jacob.
Who is Ilana?
I love Lost. Any other series would start wrapping up it mysteries, but Lost is doing it so slowly and raising even more questions on a weekly basis. That last episode is bound to be the best thing ever!
PS. Does anyone think Claire is hot right now? This is a debate going on within the LC Lost contingent.

It's funny you post your Claire question because earlier this week at work we were talking about that. Here is my stance: Right now Crazy Claire is bursting at the seams with nutso-sexuality. (Which is the strongest kind.) I'm oddly attracted to her, animal bone baby and all.
I'm curious about Ilana as well. Her vest intrigues me. It's very Han Solo-ish.
Did Jack lose weight? For some reason he looks different this season.
I think Claire looks gross with her nappy hair.
Jack does look thin. Maybe it's all that biking and golfing he does in his sideways story. He can really rock that blazer/jean combo.
Claire's wig is BAD. it's distracting to me.
