I have a bad feeling about Recon...
Right. I find myself far more worried about last night's episode than I was about Dr. Linus, in spite of the rumours going on about Ben biting the dust. For some reason, I never really believed that would happen. And I don't really belive Sawyer will get killed tomorrow (please, don't let me be wrong about this, and yes, tomorrow, because I will not get to watch the ep 'til then), but I'm very worried that he will be unredeemed. So far, the people hanging out with MiB on the Island has been in trouble in the ALT-verse. Sayid's still killing people (although I can't say I'm sad to see Keamy gone - he fucking freaked me out), and so is Kate.
And in Sawyer's case, him having a sucky ALT life would be so bloody unfair! Seriously, he's come a long, long way from the jerkass in season one and two (I loved him back then, too, though), and had found peace and whatever with the Dharma and Juliet in the seventies. Then she go and dies, and he's devastated, and he has no clue that the MiB in the form of Locke is evil - he's just wants to get off the Island that killed his love. *mutters* Sawyer deserves a happily ever after. With Juliet. They need to have coffee. And considering her dying words, I have some hope that they actually will - that she was speaking from the ALT-verse.
The placement of this episode also worries me... There was the Kate ep - unredeemed (for now, and even though she came back to help Claire), then there was the Jack ep (redeemed as a dad), then Sayid (Iraqi torturer who doesn't quite manage to leave his bad habits behind), and then Ben (redeemed, 'cause he's the best evah!). And now Sawyer. I HAVE A BAD FEELING! I hope I'm wrong though.
And maybe in the end, it will turn out all right for all of them, even Kate and Sayid and the others. For some reason, I would feel... let down by the Carlton Team if they didn't manage to bring some kind of peace to most of the people on the show.
