Sun & Jin episode pretty much = Insta Win, far as I'm concerned.
And then it just got better. ♥
You know who is made of win? Sun is made of win, that's who. I should just start listing out all my favorite moments in this episode that involved Sun, except really, every single time Sun was on screen was a favorite moment. But some definite highlights:
* Flashsideways Sun. The whole unbuttoning her blouse thing? alkak;;shsj. Just...supah sexah. (I knew she was gonna turn out to be pregnant, though. The instant she said "There's something I have to tell you", I was like, ohhh, I know what THAT means. It's like narrative fiction shorthand for "incoming fetus".)
* That whole entire scene with her going off on Richard. Part of it was just the look on everyone else's faces, how they kept glancing at each other like "Well dude, don't look at me! I can't see the subtitles either!", but a bigger part of it was what she was saying to Richard and just how mad and determined and fierce she was.
* She drew a smiley face. You guys, I can't even...oh, Sun. I heart you.
Jin, btws, was also quite awesome too (oh god, THE CAMERA). But not nearly as awesome as Sun. Sorry dude. Just the way it is.
Of course, other members of the cast continue to have their awesome too.
"She gets hit on the head on forgets to speak English. And, what, we're supposed to buy that?"
"Asks the man who can communicate with the dead."
Oh, Miles. Oh, Frank. Rock harder, both of you. I dare it.
I also kinda loved Ben coming to save Sun...and then grumpily having to defend himself from suspicion later. HEE!
And, omg, DESMOND!! Ohhh, poor, poor, Desmond. He finally gets off of this fucking Island, and Charles Epic Douchebaggery Jackass-Face Widmore has to drag him back in again! Desssmooond! I pine for you! (Did anyone else think he was gonna say "...brotha?" when he saw Sayid under the dock? Seriously, just me?)
Other people I am very sadface for: SAYID. Oh, Sayid. Just...his voice, when he said he couldn't feel anything. Like he was just stricken by it, or at least he really wanted to be. Gawd. Just...poor, poor Sayid. I feel all flaily-wibbly over you.
Atttention Fandom: write me lots of fics where cast member of your choice helps Sayid 'learn to feel again'! If you know what I mean! I DEMAND THAT FIC. (Oh my god, actually, I really want to see that fic WITH SAWYER. Has my Sayid/Sawyer prediliction of yore suddenly resumed with a burning man-passion? NOW OF ALL TIMES??)
Oh, and - was Faux Locke totally giving Claire the okay to kill Kate, once he was done with her?? First: DUDE. Second: CREEPY. Third: DICK MOVE. Fouth: ...wait, I thought Kate was still a canidate. I don't remember her name being crossed out. Or there being a reason for it. Did I miss something? If not, why would he lie about that? Just to jerk Claire around some more? Fifth: ...DICK MOVE.
Bonus guest apperance of the week: the Russian guy! Who totally got shot through his eye when he died, hahahaha. Wah wah waaaah.
(Did anyone else think/hope that 'the package' might turn out to be Juliet?)
