-Huh, I actually rather liked it...I love dark, and I thought they were getting into some intense storytelling. -As for Kate not being in jail, I'm guessing she got some sort of official pardon after surviving for months on an island like that. I have to assume that would impress some people. There would have to be more complex reasons, obviously, but I think that'd be the jist of it. -Yeah, boo on killing Tom. That was, excuse the word choice, overkill. I LIKED Tom. -However, I must respectfully disagree with your opinions on Alex. The relationship with her father is clearly strained, and having grown up without a mother, meeting that mother for the first time is going to be an emotional thing. It's not necessarily that she suddenly loves Rousseau, but that she's overwhelmed at having a mother at all. And frankly I was more insulted than touched by Ben's rationale for caging Karl. Raging teenage hormones or not, I think she could have had enough self control to figure out on her own that intercourse might perhaps not be the smartest practice to engage in. Besides which, not long before that she'd watched her father give orders to have the two women in the hatch murdered, women I'm assuming she knew pretty well. Family loyalty only goes so far.
