So my title’s aren’t always witty. Maybe never.

1. OK, so where did Locke get the crossword puzzles? Was he scavenging Sawyers “stuff?’ Would Desmond have such pop culture material lying around? Anyone slow down and scan any other questions on the page he was working on?
2. Locke was working on item #42. Something about Enkido’s friend. The answer was Gilgamesh. Did some research and turns out Gilgamesh was some mythological king and Enkido was sent by the “gods” in answer to Gil.’s people’s prayers to “tame” his arrogance. Gil. And Enk. End up friends but in the end Enk. Dies. There are some parallels being drawn to Lock and Eko but I’m not sure this isn’t just a red herring thrown in by our friends, the writers.
3. Ana’s mother was the captain of the police force. Another mother issue to go with our theme this season. Ana was a “to be” mother.
4. Numbers: 8 Adam 16 (Ana’s call number on her police car), 3 blocks to the crime. 4 bullets. Ana was shot 6 times. 4 left from the tail section.
5. My theory: Ana shoots Jason (revenge). She realizes that her cop days are done and resigns from the “force.” She takes on being a bounty hunter. This would make sense with her personality. Heck, she just came back from being shot and her baby killed and throws a tantrum when mommy doesn’t want her to jump right back on the street. So let’s say Ana gets a bounty on Kate. Makes sense she would follow her to Australia. Maybe she is so happy in the airport because she was a cohort of the marshal and ½ the reward for Kate is probably still good money.
6. Here’s an idea: What if the guy that Ana shoots (Jason) turns out to be the “wrong guy?” Maybe this will give her a connection to Sawyer (remember, he gets a false lead and shoots the wrong guy, too).
7. Did you notice that Ana was shot in “Echo Park?”
8. I think we are going to see this week that Kate’s crime is what I have been saying since last season – she killed her dad in a mercy killing, but with poison. Again, a clue when we see her with Sawyer and she knows how to get the dying man to take the pill. Those of you who I’ve chatted with weekly know that there are many examples to make us think Kate killed her dad (the only man she ever loved, per her words) but I think that she was misunderstood and “everyone” thinks that she just murdered him in cold blood. When we see the scene this week where Sawyer wakes up and grabs her it could be two things: 1) He is just hallucinating. Or 2) The reason Kate looks in the bottle is because she confessed her “crime.” Sawyer, being the funny guy he is, read all the notes. He knows Kate “killed” her dad and freaks (much like her mom did) when he wakes and finds her hovering over him. I could see her note: “ I killed my father out of mercy and love. Please understand…” or something like that.
8. Did you notice that Jason was wearing a red shirt when Ana shot him?
9. I wonder if we’ll see Ana’s back-story with her boyfriend Danny? I didn’t catch much, if anything, about him and wonder if there is a crossover there with our survivors.
10. Off subject: I just learned that the hotel owned by Sun’s father was called “The Swan.”
11. BYW, epi 2.11 is called “The Hunting Party.” I think that the two groups join here to hunt down Walt and the other children that were taken. This is supposed to be Jack-centric, which I have a hard time believing since we’ve got a lot of other characters yet to explore this season.
12. Ana’s partner (the actor) is also listed for this week’s epi, What Kate Did. Does he perhaps arrest her or we are surely going to see crossover!
13. Upcoming epi for Eko to be called “ The 23rd Psalm.” Better get reading! Supposed to reveal why Eko is so religious (duh!).
14. Is there more to the Jack/Ana Lucia relationship? My sis thinks there is a possibility that Jack and Ana could have been playing some sort of romantic “game” in pretending they didn’t know each other in the airport. Was the look at the end of last week disbelief? I don’t think so but there is “always” room for speculation and far-fetchedness (is that a word) in this show!
15. OK, I’m now reading that the writers are telling us we are also seeing some flash forwards. Wha … ??? So maybe some of them do escape the island, is that what they are telling us? Does this now cause me to go on Zoloft to slow down the enormity of the theories that I could create with this information? (lol) Ana did tell Sayid that they never caught Jason… maybe in her new training as a bounty hunter she tracked him down (FLASH FORWARD) and killed him.
16. I’m thinking that we are going to see that Eko was a priest. Perhaps his brother stole his garb and it was him up in the tree from the drug plane (remember, Locke and Boone stumble across the “priest” in the tree?).
