Does this mean we have to feel sorry for Ana Lucia too? The creators said that they would find a way for her character to regain trust back from the viewers, but that had to be the biggest cheap shot in the history of television. After finding out that Ana Lucia used to be a police officer back in Los Angeles, it was also revealed that she lost her pregnancy during a shooting that curbed her for several months. It doesn’t surprise me at all that her pre-crash career had something to do with pushing people around, because she does it so darn well, but the ghost of that baby will definitely be floating above her head for the rest of the season, and there’s something about that I just don’t agree with.
And while Ana Lucia keeps Sayid bound to a tree, the rest of the survivors make their way back to camp, led by Mr. Eko and a near-dead Sawyer. The call for help steals both Jack and Kate from their “friendly” three-hole game of golf, and after Jack sees the way Kate reacts to Sawyer’s gun wound, I think it’s safe to say that the kind doctor is most certainly the odd man out. He does have Ana Lucia to think about, but if the latest interview with the show’s writers is any indication, the person that she hooks up will be the least expected.
I’m going to go out on a limb here and say it will either be Sayid or Michael, only because those two are the least likely out of the bunch. Then again, the latest interview also indicated that we would be surprised when Ana Lucia’s past job was uncovered, and I wasn’t at all. Next week looks to get back on track with some more of Kate’s past. Let’s all hope the second season finally takes off from here…
