EW Instant Recap

Desmond pretty clearly has feet in both worlds. It appears his Sideways role is to nudge the rest of the Losties into remembering what happened on the island. Certainly that was his intent in prodding Hurley to find Libby at the mental institution.

But. That sure didn't look like a gentle nudge when he smashed Sideways-Locke into the ground with his car; the look on his face implied revenge to me, not a polite reminder.

Hurley taking a leadership role was interesting, as was Jack's willingness to let himself be led. The look Jack and unLocke exchanged was knowing on unLocke's side, bitter on Jack's.

If I'm not mistaken, we now have Jin and Sun within 50 yards of each other, so that long-awaited reunion can't be too far off, can it?

Michael's stuck on the island, whispering, as are all the other people whose behavior precludes their departure. Seems like a pretty pat explanation for those whispers, but there aren't all that many episodes left.
