Agreed.
Also, they have these episodes EVERY season. They're called filler. Enough to move some pieces along, but really they can't just give you 15 hours of straight action. Pretty meh, but it was entertaining to see some of the other secondary characters and how they fit in to the sideways world (Ethan and the professor who gets blown up). Also cool to see Claire there at the end. And suprisingly Jack wasn't too annoying. I sorta liked his plan to take the pill.
My theory after this one is that Jacob and the other guy (the monster) are essentially building up teams for a final battle - good v evil, believers v doubters. Looks like next week "Locke" is going to convince Sawyer to do something along the coast which is probably going to kill him (I dunno how the fall from cliffs above rocks would go any other way). Problem is they said Claire and now Sayid were evil too. Doesn't seem to make much sense really. How is Claire an evil one?
I guess my theory that Jacob was reincarnated as Sayid just went out the door.
