Kate's in quick-study mode this week, and gets that Jack's gone completely 'round the bend, so she manages not to say, "Well, then we're screwed," when a shot rings out and Eloise Hawking kills the adult version of the baby we're soon going to learn she's currently carrying her womb -- that is -- our very own adorkable, hottie mad-scientist, Daniel Faraday. Jack's ready to rush Camp Richard but Kate pulls him back and convinces him to flee. They run in the wrong direction though and are caught by two Others on horseback -- a nameless Other-Goon and Charles Widmore. Is it just me, or when he's played by David S. Lee, is Widmore is kind of nummy in a needs-a-bath-Viggo-Mortensen/Aragorn sort of way? Widmore thwacks Jack in the face with the butt of his rifle, bloodying his pretty face and knocking him to the ground. Kate looks like she cares for at least three seconds.

Eloise is looking from the journal to Daniel's lifeless eyes, and then at Richard, when Widmore arrives back at camp, calling her name. Richard catches him up on what happened with Daniel, and then Charles catches Eloise and Richard up on his brand new prisoners. Eloise asks Jack and Kate if they came here with "this man" -- meaning Daniel. Corpse is more specific now, Mommy Dearest. When Jack says yes, she orders the Other-Goon to put them in her tent. Alice Evans has pretty blue eyes, but the color is only evident when the lighting is right. The rest of the time, they nearly look black. My husband Scott keeps babbling about Black-Eyed Willow and various demons on Supernatural. I think my devotion to crazy TV has finally broken his brain. Tsk. It was a nice brain. That's just too bad. I hope he can still work, because this mortgage ain't gonna pay itself. Anyhow, when Charles asks Eloise why the Dharma Initiative seems to have declared war on them, she seems to take great pains to remain polite as she explains to him, "These people aren't from the Dharma Initiative, Charles." The moron is implied. Ellie, Charles and Richard all look around, waiting for the dramatic music to start, which it does and we jump to...
