I too am an eternal Claire/Charlie shipper. But ConMama is just...so awesome. Especially when he screamed her name over and over again. He is so much better without the icky icky Kate. Although I did like her in S1 and S2. It wasn't until 3 that I was like, UGH.

OMG, I totally said the same thing about chess in the Ben/Widmore scene. And they're using our beloved characters as pawns. Those two are so uberly evil.

And Bernard is THE MAN. I don't have the Daniel love that you do (sorry), but I loved the moment when Bernard (aka RAMBO) said, He's lying. Rock on, Bernard!

Yeah, when Sawyer was all "I'll make time!" to go find Claire, I was like "AWWW! He cares!" And I used to love Kate, too, until S3 and then she started being really annoying.

Ben/Widmore could totally take over the world. They're like giant superpowers battling it out! Scary.

XD I like Bernard, don't get me wrong, and I do think it was good that he called Daniel out on the lie for the sake of everyone else. But I worry for Daniel now, and I'm not sure why he lied in the first place! But I stand by my assumption that he's good at heart.

And maybe you'll come around to the Daniel love. ;)

I'm still broken because Benry's not a god. Or not a more powerful one than Charles Widmore.

And frankly, I'm torn. TORN!

On the one hand:

I LOVE Daniel. Not as much as you, because that's not humanly possible, but I LOVE him, and yet he is clearly anti-BEN, and I LOVE BEN. And he's on Sayid's team in the future, which is good for me, but BEN is also anti-WIDMORE. Which is okay with me, except that he wants to kill PENELOPE, and DES/PENNY IS MY LIFE.

Also, Risk. Ahaha. I love Hurley and I want him to babysit the children that I don't have at this point in my life.

Daniel is clearly innocent, or he WOULD have lied BETTER.

Bernard, shut up. You are TOO Rambo.

CONMAMA!! Deffo my new ship. (I miss Charlie/Claire. *sob*)

And in conclusion, Alex ;_; whyyyyyyyyy WHYYYYYYYY AND HOW DID *BEN* KILL HER? Also, Benry crying made me teary, and that takes some doing, fasho.

Benry's the devil incarnate! But he's still pretty awesome. Widmore is just all around evil; at least you can't tell with Benry. ;)

But Ben is not good (or evil?) so Daniel has justification for being anti-Ben. But srsly, I don't think Daniel is anti-anyone. He's just investigating the properties of the island and getting them there and back.

Same here! Hurley would make a great babysitter...not literally, though. ;) *Lion King II flashback with Pumbaa*

Exactly! Daniel doesn't have a malicious bone in his twitchy body! I love how Charlotte was all *facepalm* when he 'fessed up.

I miss Charlie/Claire but I think I'm moving towards acceptance now. And ConMama is adorable.

ALEXXXXXX! *cries* I feel more bad on Benry's behalf rather than hers, though. But poor both of them.

IKR, poor Benryyyyy. Benry crying... that will forever be burned into my brain. Oh, Benry!

Benry may be the devil incarnate, but oh man... I love him. Also, indisputable fact: Michael Emerson is an amazing actor, whether you hate Benry or love him.

BUT WHERE WAS MY DESMOND?! Oh well. I'll survive. I GUESS. BUT HE'D BETTER BE BACK SOON.

Michael Emerson is an incredible actor, no denying that fact! F'sho.

And DESMOND. I miss Des but I'm sure he'll be on the next episode since it'll probably show the peeps on the freighter and center around what happened to Doc Ray!

I think I gaped at the TV too. I didn't think they'd actually kill Alex. :(

Well...you know...Aaron does seem to like the sound of Sawyer's voice. :)

Love how Jack played down his problem. He's a doctor...he knows what's wrong with him....

I know! That was definitely a time to lie...and he didn't...

Gah...I can't wait for next week :P

I totally thought that Ben was going to find some way to rescue her...But Keamy called him on his bluff. :(

This is true! And I remember Sawyer making a comment to the extent of "She likes me" one time back on the beach about Claire. XD

Oh yeah, I forgot about that part! I'm no Jater, but I thought the interaction between him and Kate in the beginning was cute. "You should eat some crackers...crackers always helped me." :)

And since he didn't lie, it shows that he was trying to be honest with them. If he was really there to kill them all and be generally a not good person, he would have lied. The fact that he didn't is points in his favour, I would think.

I KNOW! It can't come soon enough!

Same here!
I thought something was gonna happen and she'd suddenly be saved. **pouts**

Oh yeah...I forgot about that comment.
I still love when Charlie realized that Aaron stopped crying when Sawyer talked and was, basically, chasing him down. :)

I don't know anymore what I am. lol
I used to like Kate/Jack...and then Kate/Sawyer...but who really wants to be with a woman that can't make up her mind on which guy she wants to be with? :P

True. Him and the pilot seem to be ones that don't want to hurt them. Or, they didn't realize what they were getting in to until it was too late.

:D

I used to be a hardcore Skater but now my ships are all messed up. The only ones I'm sure about are Daniel/Charlotte and Sun/Jin...oh, and Bernard/Rose, haha.

Yep! I got the same feeling from Frank when he was aboard the freighter talking with Michael. I also would like to think that Charlotte is one of the good guys but it's hard to tell with her. I can't imagine her, an anthropologist, being a killer. But I do realize that she has a "get things done no matter what" sort of attitude. *shrugs*

Haha, yeah, it totally was! And then his following "You know morse code" was great, too. :D

YES! Damon and Carlton promised that we'd find out more about Daniel (and Miles') backstories so I hope that means Daniel-centric flashback episodes. Because that would just be amazing!

At first I thought that maybe he's just shot her with a tranquilizer...but no such luck. :(
