Sometime in Season 1, LOST fans who cared about the Jack/Kate/Sawyer love triangle split themselves up into two camps:
THE JATERS who wanted Jack and Kate to be together and THE SKATERS who wanted Sawyer and Kate to be together. Well, Kate made her choice last night and while I had believed myself to be too invested in other parts of the show to care, I couldn't help but react way more strongly to that choice than I expected.
I guess I'm a JATER.
I got PISSED that Kate chose Sawyer... not even because of the choice itself but how she revealed it. She basically told Jack when she told him that saving Sawyer was more important than Jack being his own man. It reminds me of that classic moment in The Simpsons when Lisa and Ralph go to the Krusty Special together and Lisa screams at the camera that she is most definitely NOT Ralph's girlfriend. Bart replays a tape of it to Lisa and points out that you can see the exact second Ralph's heart breaks. "Rrrright.... THERE!"
Same thing with last night. You could see Jack's heart breaking RRRIGHT... THERE!
I felt for the guy way more than I thought I would. Why? Because once again the nice guy loses to the outlaw. OUCH.
More later....
