AND SUDDENLY THERE ARE MORE PEOPLE ON THE BEACH WHO ACT LIKE THEY'VE BEEN THERE ALL ALONG: I have a love/hate relationship with Lost's Lockecentric episodes. On the one hand, I adore Terry O'Quinn as well as the Locke character (Locke's season 2 wussosity notwithstanding), but every time we go to a Locke flashback, I get tense in anticipation. Which new terrible isolating things will happen to him this time? (And for a necessary followup: will this be the episode in which we find out the story with his legs?) This episode did nothing to alleviate my melancholy -- I just feel so sad for the poor guy, trying to find his place in the world. Which is a testament to the character and the actor, of course, but it doesn't make me any less sad.

And then there's Desmond. What is this, Heroes?
