Detective James Ford

Recon....the Sawyer/James-centric episode. Well, I have to say...even though I am a HUGE Sawyer fan, compared to some of the other episodes we have seen so far this season, I didn't like this one as much. I guess because it followed such an epic Ben episode last week and is preceding the mega-epic Richard episode next week. Still, any Sawyer-centric episode "aint half bad."


So, in Sawyer's Flash Sideways, he is a detective for the LAPD. (With his partner being Miles)Surprising to say the least. Though, it does seem that he still has some unresolved issues regarding his parent's death. He is still consumed by finding Cooper and in fact we learn that he still went to Australia to find him. It is strange though that Cooper seems to have a good relationship with Locke in FS time, but was still conning Sawyer's mom when Sawyer was 9. Thus, Cooper still = the bad guy in my book. Maybe FS Locke just hasn't figured it out yet.


For those of you who didn't already figure it out....this was Liam, Charlies brother, asking where his brother was who was brought in for drug charges. Yay! More Charlie soon to come I hope!!

Meanwhile, back on the island, Flocke addresses his crew and Claire gets a little nuts. She goes after Kate with a knife and Flocke pulls her off of Kate, slaps her down and tells her to "go sit in the corner." Well, he doesn't really say that, but he may as well have. Okay dad...but she started it. >:( Flocke then has a conversation with Kate, telling her that he has "mommy issues" and that his mother was crazy. Really? No kidding?? I never would have guessed. I think his real ploy here though was telling Kate that now Aaron had a crazy mommy, thus trying to make Kate and Claire enemies. I don't think it worked though....



....or is Claire just keeping her friends close and her enemies closer???




Sawyer goes on a recon mission for Flocke to the Hydra island. While he is there, he finds the Ajira plane and also runs into the "only survivor" Zoe. She tries to con the con man but he doesn't buy it and eventually finds out she is actually part of Widmore's crew brought to the island on the submarine. She takes him to the sub to meet Widmore but when he is down in the sub, he sees this.

Hmmm.....I'll trade you for what's behind door #2. Any guesses on what's behind the locked door? I can definitely see Widmore dragging Desmond along, kicking and fighting, and only being contained because he is locked behind this door. Come on...bring on some more butt-kicking Desmond!!!


So, FS Detective Ford goes on a blind date and the blind date ends up being Charlotte. Miles tells James that she "works with his dad at the museum." Interesting. Now I am wondering how Miles and his dad got off the island. Or maybe Miles meant his step-dad....but I'm betting not. In any case, James and Charlotte hit it off and wind up going back to Ford's place and....{insert censor here} Afterwards, Charlotte is innocently looking for a t-shirt in his dresser when she stumbles upon...........


....his Sawyer file. He flips out and tells her to get out. The next day he feels bad and tries to woo her back with a sunflower and a case of beer. (Sorry James, that only works on Juliette). Miles finds out he went to Australia instead of Florida which is where Miles thought he was. Miles tells him he's no longer his partner. James then tells Miles the truth about why he went to Australia and they work things out when all of the sudden their parked car gets hit by another car and someone gets out and starts running. They run the person down and discover it is Kate. Dun...dun...dun...
