The Whole Truth: Or Simply More Foreshadowing?
At the beginning of The Whole Truth we get the old jerky from the writers with Locke asking Ana-Lucia if she’s “running from the devil?” Could Desmond be rejoining the story soon?
This episode thrusts us into the new triangle that’s formed between Locke, Jack, and Happy Balloon Man. It’s a relationship of confidence games and trust issues, which leaves HBM looking for all the world like he’s one of “them” and if he isn’t then certainly the first person you’d beat the crap out of when something goes wrong. And if you’ve heard of slash fiction, then this triangle takes on so much more meaning.
We now know that Sun got her english lessons from the rich boy she dated before meeting Jin. The question of wether he is the father of her child remains unanswered, though implied. More importantly this flashback revisits the question: Was the US Marshall right?
Kate reluctantly admits she once took a pregnancy test. Who was the suspected father in that case? Was it her childhood sweetheart, or her abusive step-dad? Expect another Kate flashback before the end of season two.
The hatch goes coo-coo bananas tonight. Hopefully we’ll have some Locke questions answered.
