Kate goes to extreme measures to save Ben's life when Jack refuses to help. Meanwhile, Kate begins to tell the truth about the lie in order to protect Aaron.
Guest List:
Spoiler:
Guest starring are Nestor Carbonell as Richard Alpert, Kim Dickens as Cassidy, Doug Hutchison as Horace Goodspeed, Susan Duerden as Carol Littleton, Sterling Beaumon as young Ben, Patrick Fischler as Phil, Jon Gries as Roger Linus, William Blanchett as Aaron, Sebastian Siegel as Erik, Candace Scholz as Debra, Susan King as sweet young woman, Miko Franconi as grocery worker, Scott Moura as manager and Olivia Vickery as Clementine.
I think it's just the whole paradox situation. Like Juliet said, it's wrong for a kid to die, no matter who he grows up to be. Kate might've thought about how she would feel if it was Aaron in Ben's place.
I thought it was a good episode. I really hope that Claire is Kate's agenda and that she's not making it up just to look good. I almost cried when she said bye to Aaron.
I also noticed how she sang the lullaby to him that Claire had requested those possible-adoptive parents to sing to him back in Season 1, the same lullaby she said her father had sang to her. "Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket." I think that was a sweet homage to Claire.
I will very annoyingly say. I am ready for the creators of the show to explain exactly how Charlie's death benefitted anybody. I'm still aggravated that he's gone and Claire was never saved...well not in the way we think anyway.
I'm looking forward to seeing more of Ben and Locke. Those two have been absent for too long. I'm also anxious to see Lapidus and Sun sometime soon. Sun and Jin reunion FTW!
The whole brand new friendship between Kate and Juliet is a little odd. Guess I'm just used to all the animosity they used to have. I did like the little head-biting she did to Jack, although at the end of the episode we realize that that's how it was supposed to be anyway.
Also, laughed at Hurley and Miles. Hurley makes a good comedic duo with that one, and the new one with Miles was pretty funny.

Still don't like Kate, but go her for wanting to find Claire! At least SOMEONE does. (If that is, in fact, why she came back. I personally think Sawyer had something to do with it...)
Also, speaking of finding people, WHERE THE HELL IS DANIEL??? The whole time Miles and Hurley were having their time-travel conversation, I was like, "Here's a thought. Why don't you find Daniel, and ASK HIM!" Good Lord. At least explain what happened to him, instead of just, "Hey, where's Daniel?" "Oh, he's gone." Wut?
Also, yay for Juliet, Sawyer, and Kate realizing that Ben's a kid. He's not the Ben we know, Jack, you stupid person. Yeah, you don't like Ben, so you're gonna let this, like, 12-year-old die. _________________ icon by becca

words can't BEGIN to describe how happy I am right now!!! my FAVE ep all season, obviously but for so many reasons!!!
Suliet Solidified!!!! Sawyer saying he was helping Ben for Jules made me so happy (sorry charlee! im sure you hated that part :]). and I loved Juliet standing up to Jack and of course the Jack shower scene
Now, the best stuff. I am THRILLED that Carole has Aaron!!! Just how it was meant to be!! when I read the cast list last week and saw Cassidy and Carole; I thought maybe Kate would leave Aaron with Cass and not his grandmother. But im so glad how it panned out, with Kate and Cass being best friends and Kate being Aunty to clementine, sucked we didnt get to see more of her tho
also LOVED that kate was singing to Aaron that song; just like Claire wanted. and how cute was that lil Aaron?
I was annoyed that Kate said to Carole "I knew she wanted to give him up for adoption" because Kate knows Claire didn't want that anymore. She wanted to keep him; hello? Maternity Leave convo with Claire/Aaron? But i adored that final scene; one of the best of the show so far with Kate and Carole, admitting that Claire's alive and saying she's going back for her; Thank GOD!!! at least this means Claire does have a role in the future!!!
I also loved that kate admitted her taking Aaron was more selfish on her part then what they needed to do; made me feel better about that convo from The Lie where she said she'd take him to Jack.
AWESOME eppy!! i wish every week was like it _________________

Ok what an amazing episode! Also my fave of the season
*still needs to wipe the tears away* Another episode that made me cry
Lol Kat, yep I definatly didn't like that, but I loved the Skate convo about Clem and all that tehe
Words cannot describe how happy I am that Aaron is with Claire that made me so happy, but also sad for Kate, but I think she needed this to give him back.
Awww I loved the Cassidy/Kate moments they were ace, definatly wanted to see more of that
Ok I am the only one who started to ship Kate/Roger a lil, I was like at the thought of my liking them
Twas cute when Kate sang 'catch a falling star' Loved the fact that through that episodde we learnt about why Kate had Aaron and how selfish of her it was. But also felt sad for her because it shown that she really did lovve Sawyer and it was hard for her letting him go
Loved the Hurley/Miles stuff, and yay for Angsty Jacket I loved the ending with Richard/Ben and Locke/Ben, tis getting so awesome now!

I did like the Kate stuff about sawyer; her really caring about him. I thought they skated, hehe, over the Clem stuff too quickly tho; i was prepped for a big all out convo; maybe even a pic of what she looks like now to give to him? but i dunno. I dont think sawyer will ever meet Clem for some reason...
but OMG, i had a roger/kate thought too!! and then i was like, nup; too weird! but i did love that convo they had. 'a boy just needs his mother'. Im so grateful for this ep because up until now it had seemed like pawning Aaron off to Kate was just a way of shifting Claire out of the show but they're now showing that Aaron isn't meant to be with Kate at all; he's meant to be with Claire and that will hopefully happen in season 6!
also loved the hurley/miles stuff. Hurley is so playing the role of us, the audience, asking all the questions we ask loving Miles right now; im still finding him very very hot why cant he hook up with someone? _________________

LOL Charlee! No way! Me too! From the first scene, I was like "omg... vid potential! Roger's actually being cute!" I'm thinking of vidding them. xD Maybe Uncle Rico/Kate. xD _________________
