Eeeiiiiii!!! Sawyer Episode! And Flash-sideways Sawyer is a cop! Bwhahahahahahahaha! Awesome. And Miles is his buddy-cop movie partner! And Charlotte is his one night stand (that ended disastrously... as it should... because she belongs with Faraday!)

Anyway, on the whole, not as good as last week. And I'm not at all surprised by the 'unfinished' aspect of the Flashsideways. Sayid's was unfinished as well. I figure that's because we have a 'rest of the story' before the end of the series. (And I'm still rather intrigued by the fanwank I read somewhere that all things may lead to Locke's wedding. Someone pointed out that Damon's...er... what was his Lost character's name? Boone. Anyway, Boone's mother ran a wedding business. And Locke's fiance mentioned inviting Locke's father. So James (wouldn't flash-sideways Sawyer be James?) search could logically lead him to the same event. Locke working at the school could explain Ben showing up at a wedding. And Hurley and Rose having helped Locke could also possibly score invites? Anyway, it could be a possibility.

At any rate, Lost-sideways James opened up to Miles. Sideways James was also careful enough to not shoot the wrong man. And, I bet, he'll actually come to peace with his search without killing Sawyer this time. And I admit, I hee-d when Detective James Ford a) didn't get Charlie out of the drunk tank and b) caught Kate (and I'm willing to bet that this time she may well not have murdered her step father.) However, just because I hee-d over James meeting Kate, I'm still holding out hope that he's who Juliet was asking out for coffee.

Now, what mythological figure fits old Smokey? Which one had a crazy mom?

And I figure it makes sense for Sawyer to play both sides against the middle. I mean, between Widmore and UnLocke, who would you trust? That's right. Neither.

At any rate, as written, not as good as last week, but still fun. :) Cop!Sawyer. Bwhahahahahaha! (in a good way).

My first thought was Medea. Maybe she didn't really kill her kids but put them on the island and tied them to it so they couldn't leave as long as they both lived but decreed they they couldn't kill one another, and then hid the island from the world.

I'm wondering whether it will be a mix-and-match. Medea, and Eve (maybe the tree made her crazy so we're talking Cain and Able), Romulus and Remus (who did eventually kill one another). Horus and Seth. It's sort of an archetypal conflict giving them lots of myths to pull from.

Lilith?

Hawaii 5-0 Sawyer-Miles were precious.

Ooooh, Lilith is a good guess making Cain and Abel her sons instead of Eve's.

OR Cain is Lilith's and Abel is Eve's...

Oh, so many cool theories. I wonder if Lost's PTB will end up with anything nearly as cool.

EW's reviewer seems to think that Jacob/Smokey are the Fisher King and his knight... which is a neat theory.

Although the EW reviewer has so many theories that he's bound to hit upon interesting things every now and again.

I'd watch it! :)

But I still want Sawyer to hook up with Juliet.

I love that sideways Sawyer was a cop and that Miles was his partner. It fitted in nicely with their dynamic while involved with the Darma people last season. I am hoping we will have a Miles episode soon.

I really like that it meant when James told Hugo in the season opener, not to tell people he won the lottery because people could take advantage of him, there was only good intentions on James' behalf and it was not a set up for James trying to con Hugo out of his money. Which admittedly is what i thought they were going to do.

I hadn't thought about James's advice to Hugo! I like it!

Now I'm beginning to wonder whether LostVersePrime is the world created with Jacob!Intervention or whether Sideways!Verse is where Jacob intervened.

And whether it'll end up like Trading Places and it was all just a bet between Jacob and Smokey. :)
