OK, so now we know why Jin was in the refrigerator. That was pretty clever. But what else did we learn?
(1) That Jin and Sun are not married yet, and their affair has been discovered by her father. He has set up Jin for assassination. (2) That Keamy is apparently an assassin for hire and involved with several clients. (3) That Desmond is “the package.”
That was about it.
When we first saw the very, scary, Keamy, he was a mercenary, hired by Charles Widmore and aboard the freighter Kahana. He came onto the Island and killed Carl, Ben’s adopted daughter Alex’ boyfriend and Danielle Rousseau her biological mother. He then executed Alex, in front of Ben during a stand off. Now in the Flash Sideways, Keamy works for Sun’s father, Mr. Paik!
We know that Widmore and Paik have a business relationship, so it makes sense they might share a mercenary with an extensive resume. But why did Sayid’s brother borrow money from Keamy (how does he even know him?) and as a result, that relationship brought Sayid to the restaurant kitchen where he killed the mercenaries and inevitably rescued Jin, who was a complete stranger. Whew....too many questions.
Unfortunately, for Jin and Sun, Widmore doesn’t stop until he gets his revenge and there are a lot of people he wants to avenge. You may remember that after the Oceanic Six received their settlement money, Sun bought controlling interest in her father’s company and named herself as Managing Director. When she went to visit Widmore in London, she let him know she knew of his involvement with the Island and held him responsible for her husband’s “death.”
Since Widmore now has Jin, he will most likely try to use him as leverage in some way. Finally, where has Desmond been since we last saw him in L.A., and how will he help unravel the mysteries that elude us?
Oh, I almost forgot—the war is on!!
See you next week.
