It’s totally rad that there’s an Old Navy on the island. I especially love Claire’s brand new short-sleeved hoodie; that green is fantastic on her. She and Sun are doing laundry together, and as they discuss the raft, Sun realizes that she’s lost her wedding ring. In a nice touch of realism, she panics in Korean rather than English. And we head into our first flashback of the evening. In case we had forgotten that Sun was a rich girl, here she’s sitting at her jewelry box picking out sparkly things, and in the background there’s a big four-poster bed with five million pillows on it. Her mom comes in and instantly starts in with the nagging. Looks like Sun’s going on a blind date – her parents are embarrassed that she’s still single even after four years of college. Yeah, what an old hag she is.

Instead of going back to the island at the end of Sun’s flashback, we go straight to Jin’s back story, the better to remember that they were of rather different backgrounds. He’s in a dumpy little apartment with another guy, getting dressed for an interview and talking about love, life, and fish. Jin’s nervous about the interview, wants to rise above his background as a fisherman, and doesn’t want a woman, even though the “destiny book” says he needs to find a wife. An orange one, to be precise. Hey, it’s what the book says. This scene drags but they don’t actually say much, because it’s all in Korean and Korean is longer than English. This scene is like a kung-fu movie, but with a plot. And no kung fu. And in Korean, not Chinese. So actually it’s not at all like a kung-fu movie.

Back in Ana Lucia’s hatch, the Three Musketeers are trying to figure out what the hell is going on. Sawyer, who’s not looking so good, says “I think they’re gonna eat us.” Seriously. The only way Ana Lucia gets to be so rude is if she ate all the other survivors, and laughed while she cooked them. She tells them that they have to gather food and water, because they’re all going to walk over to the main camp. The music gets all dramatic-y and dun dun DUNNN when she says that, as if this was the startling, out-of-nowhere idea of a tour guide savant.

My roommate and I laugh and laugh - why do they act like it’s so dramatic to go back to the survivor’s hub? After all, that plan makes the most sense. The only sense, in fact! It’s like ordering dinner and when it arrives deciding that dammit, you’re gonna eat this dinner, no matter what anyone else thinks!
