“…Once we use the portal to bring our people here, then we will own it all.”

Ominous words from Thomas, but it’s scenes like that contribute to this show just seeming kind of ridiculous (and not a funny ridiculous like My Own Worst Enemy). I love Lost and the myths and the mythology and the unexplained. I don’t recall ever finding it silly. I also love 24 and Prison Break and never laughed when the writers didn't intend for me to. But here I find myself saying, “Aliens? Really?”

President Martinez’s bizarre dream didn’t help either. At first I wondered if it was some kind of telepathy he was being subjected to, but then Christina woke him up.

Sean finding Vicky and ‘asking’ for her help has put him back in the thick of things. With Leila with her father’s friends, she is the one more on the sidelines.

“Everything I’ve kept from you was to protect you.”

It doesn’t seem the President is ready to believe Sofia, but at least Blake believes Maya and was willing to share that with the president. It puts a different context to Sofia’s actions that I think they need in the situation room. Though even with that knowledge, Elias Martinez appears to be through messing around…

“She has played me for a fool for the last time. So if there’s a choice between her escaping and the use of lethal force… may God rest her soul.”
