TONIGHT ON LOST: THANK YOU FOR THE CHICKEN SALAD, BEN... NOW I KEEL YOU!

So many questions. Is Dharma Initiative LSD as good as the rest of their myriad products? Why are Juliette and Kate being so nice to each other? Where is Oldham's brother Darryl? And his other brother Darryl? And of course the big question, did Sayid just kill 12 year old Ben? What the f*&k? Sure Sayid used to torture people, and he's killed a bunch of dudes, but shooting a kid? Really? It seems a bit much. I mean, sure now we have all the super cool ramifications of Sayid going into the past and killing young Ben which will obviously affect the Losties in the future. But, is it worth turning Sayid and his ridiculously sexy accent into a child murderer? We shall see. My brain hurts just trying to think about what will happen now. Shouldn't there have been some weird Back To The Future-esque photo image dissolving immediate consequences to young Ben dying? Wouldn't they all just disappear? At least Jack, Kate, Sayid and Hurley since they wouldn't be back on the island if it weren't for Ben? Or maybe they would have never left the island if it weren't for Ben? Or maybe they all would have been rescued by the Dharma folks? Or killed by the hostiles? Or vice versa? In true Lost fashion this episode managed to answer one little question (why was Sayid in handcuffs with the lady on the plane?) while introducing a new, big crazy question (WTF is going to happen now?) Good stuff, can't wait 'till next week.
