Kate-centered, yet a really good episode.
We looked into the meaning of the words "tabula rasa" and it's a philosophy of John Locke, the enlightenment philosopher. This philosophy states that we are a blank slate at birth and that we become what we are because of our experiences.
Number watch: the reward for turning in Kate was 23 thousand dollars.
Favorite moments of the episode:
*The irony of the group choosing Kate to hold the gun
*Sawyer: "Me? I'm in the wild!"
*Locke finding Vincent but letting Michael take him back to Walt
*Jack's speech about being able to start over on the Island (thus, Kate deciding to become a "blank slate" again)
*Ending montage with happy music! (then ruined by the foreboding shot of Locke....still don't understand that)
Featured character: Kate
I will say this for her. She has pluck walking all she did in Australia. But other than that, I will stop saying anything for fear of offending Kate fans....OH! Here's another compliment for her: the Patsy Cline songs that they use are always on her episodes. On this episode, it was Leavin' On Your Mind. I hadn't actually heard that one till then.

3 musings:
I personally don't see why you don't like Kate. Granted she has issues and is messed up at least she has been trying to change.
I have issues with main female characters of certain things. Kate is one of those issue characters, along with Arwen (movie version of LotR) and Padme. (1,2, and 3 of Star Wars) I think she has a decision crisis problem. Granted, she had plenty of reason for blowing up her father, but she didn't have to lie to Kevin. You'd think she would give him the courtesy of knowing she was a criminal BEFORE he married her.
Kate's lame because she can't make up her mind. It gets irritating in later episodes when she's bouncing around between Jack and Sawyer.
