Episode was pretty filler-ish, mostly because we already knew that Ben was going to live. Nice to know what happened with Aaron though, and the 10 seconds of Locke/Ben at the end almost made up for the 30 minutes Kate spent crying her eyes out. Next week will definitely be hawt. Oh, and I'm glad they had the Hurley/Miles scene -- maybe now I won't have to listen to distinguished mentally-challenged fellows on /tv/ and GAF debate the simple time-travel mechanics they've laid out.
plus, Asshole Jack is pretty awesome.
Yeah, I watched the episode with a friend who's absolutely loathed Jack since the beginning of the series, and one of his first comments was, "Holy shit, new Jack is great."
