Good episode.
My prediction:
Click Here For A SpoilerJuliet ends up siding with the Losties, and betrays Ben as far as whatever he's got planned.

In that promo Sun said something about not trusting "him." For some reason, the way she said it makes me wonder if we should be trusting her. She can't be working for the Others, though, because she killed one of them. Then again, so did Juliet...

damn them! I finally felt like I could exhale because they were showing the viewing audience all the trials that this person had gone thru, thus finally allowing myself to fully enjoy the feelings of affection I'd been supressing all this time... and then they slammed us with that ending.

Well at least I got my answer as to how Juliet happened to have the key.
And some of the Others backstory has shot down my theory on the island. It's good to know Ben has always been a jerk. I think EDE's on the right track with Juliet and where her allegiance will end up.
A good story, but dagnabbit gimme some Sun!

Man, did this ep give me bad dreams (mothers/babies dying). Very good, though. Normally, I have little interest in blondes, but I love Juliet more with each episode.
I have a question, reflecting my ignorance of the details revealed early in the show before I started watching. Did Rousseau give birth to Alex on the island, or before? If it was on the island, it puts a lie to what Juliet said about the island's "no baby" policy, but is consistent with Juliet's "it happens at conception" statement in the flashback with Linus on the rocks. Maybe Juliet and Ethan were trying to figure out why Claire WASN'T dying, rather than stopping her FROM dying.

At the end when they showed Juliet look away all tense like, I thought the camera was going to pan out and show the reason for the tenseness was because Sayid was staring her down, seemingly onto her.

She mentioned bringing her baby, so we're led to believe Alex wasn't born there.

Hmm... I was thinking Rousseau was pregnant when she crashed on the island. I could be wrong, though.

Yeah Doc, there was a brief moment where Kate looked at Sun when Juliet told her and Jack about that. Jin doesn't know yet, does he?

If she was born there, that would explain why the Others took Alex. She was an unusual birth.

Yeah, I just looked it up on lostpedia. She was seven months pregnant when she crashed.
Ben was apparently born on the island as well, if he "lived there all his life". It may imply that the inability to have children is a recent thing.

This was a GREAT episode, I thought. Right up there with the very best of the entire saga! I liked how they answered questions we forgot we even had.
(Now if they'd just solve the mystery of Adam and Eve in the pool by the caves...)
And how awesome was it that they referenced / Juliet actually went back to the caves from season 1???

Perhaps if the having babies problem is a recent thing, it has to do with the 'incident' that the Dharma stuff always refers to (Cerebus going rogue, the original Hatch problem, etc.)?
Kippers, the writers have confirmed that they will play into Adam and Eve eventually, maybe even in the final season.
