No, not the former Phoenix Suns point guard.  This Kevin Johnson is actually Michael Dawson and his story is a doozy.  Tonight's episode was basically all flashback with some Island action sprinkled in for effect.  Yet another unprecedented event in a string of such events this season.  I can't remember that much of an episode dedicated to flashbacks.

I've got to tell you, while this episode did give us a bunch of "revelations", I might actually be more confused than ever.  From what I can tell there are essentially three "sides" in the mix here.  There's the Losties (nevermind that they're currently split in two), then there's the Ben side, and finally the Widmore side.  Clearly, there's a battle raging between the Ben and Widmore sides and our Losties are caught in the middle.  There's also some fogginess about who is in which side at any given moment.  See my confusion?

I think that the writers really have been paying attention to all of us for the last three years.  Tonight they chose to address one of the nagging idiosyncrasies of Lost: The fact that the losties NEVER share crucial information with each other.  People were talking like crazy tonight.  Finally! 

How many of you out there have screamed at your television sets because a critical tidbit isn't shared when it was needed?  I know I have.  It's been obvious that we were supposed to assume these conversations had taken place but it was refreshing to actually see it happen.  Juliet's bombshell was a blatant example.  But Kate shared info, Bernard shared some (albeit to Jin who wouldn't be able to put two and two together), and the best was the captain of the ship telling Sayid and Desmond who owned the boat.  I never thought I'd see the day.

So, here's what's coming up on Lost for March 20th, 2008, according to TV Guide. Can we form some preliminary theories from what they've hinted at us? *POSSIBLE SPOILERS CONTAINED INSIDE*

I know what you're all thinking:  Slow.  But let's face it, nothing could have followed last week's episode.  It was impossible to match so with that in mind, tonight's show wasn't bad.  We did get some flashbacks instead of flashforwards for the first time this season, which is nice.  And we received confirmation that 1) Ben is a freak (not that this wasn't already painfully obvious) and 2) he has had the hots for Juliet for a very long time.

If you recall the previews for "The Other Woman", we all thought we might get some serious Juliet-going-Rambo action but it didn't actually turn out that way.  No, instead we realize that Charlotte and Daniel had orders to prevent Ben from gassing the island again (btw, The Tempest?) so Juliet took a leap of faith and let them complete that part of the mission.
