Tonight, episode 3.04 “Every Man For Himself” airs at 9 PM EST on ABC (of course). Remember that my Summary, Key Points, and Observations will be available within the next couple days. Here’s the official synopsis from ABC:
Sawyer finds out how serious his captors are in making sure he and Kate don’t attempt to escape.
Possible Spoiler Warning
You might find my reactions a bit spoiler-ly if you haven’t seen the episode yet.
Reactions
Can anyone say “Really good episode?” Because I can. I enjoyed every minute of this episode. Every second, in fact. The Sawyer flashback was not the best that we’ve had, but it certainly gave us some very large tidbits about Sawyer’s life…
We find out that Sawyer was in prison and that he has a daughter named Clementine with one of the women that he had conned. On the island, we find that Colleen dies even though Jack tries to save her, Desmond shows more of this mysterious post-hatch imposion abilities, Sawyer and Kate’s relationship twists around in another direction, and that the Hydra is not on the main island, but on another, vastly smaller island off the coast.
Key Points
- Sawyer was in prison for some length of time, obviously for conning.
- Sawyer has a daughter named Clementine with one of the women he had conned.
- Colleen died from the bullet wound she received from Sun.
- Danny Pickett was Colleen’s husband. Now he wants to kill Sawyer.
- Someone from the Others has a large tumor on one of their vertebrae. Jack believes that, since he is a spinal surgeon, that is why the Others captured him.
- The Hydra is located on a small island roughly twice the size of Alcatraz off the coast of the main island where the Losties crashed and the other DHARMA stations are. (How did the Others get there without the boat they gave to Michael and Walt?)
- Desmond definately has some kind of future-seeing ability. The full scale of this ability is yet to be seen.
