The question that we were all theorizing about since "Through the Looking Glass" was finally answered in tonight's episode of Lost: Who did Kate have to get back to while she was talking to Jack? The answer was the last spoken word of the episode: Aaron. Her baby. That was the one overwhelming fact from the episode, but there were many more things that we learned. We find out what the secret of the Oceanic 6 is. We find out that Kate and Sawyer didn't get pregnant on the Island. And we ultimately find out that Kate was tried for the crimes she committed before having crashed onto the Island. All of these facts and much more recapped here.

What happened to Claire Bear?
For those of you that saw the episode, you're asking the same thing I am: If Kate is claiming Aaron to be her son, then what the heck happened to Claire? She's apparently not one of the Oceanic 6. She either dies or she is still on the Island. That's probably also got a lot to do with why Jack refuses to see Aaron. Is Jack responsible for Claire's death? Or does he feel guilty for having left her on the Island? Or maybe it's got something to do with the fact that Jack and Claire have the same father?

Future Jack's testimony: "I don't love Kate, not anymore."
Jack is called upon as a surprise witness in the case of the People vs. Kate. More intriguing than his denial of love for Kate Austen was his faux recapping of the events that happened after the crash of Flight 815. He tells the story of the plane crashing in the water, there being 8 survivors and Kate being the hero that rescued everyone. He denies ever having spoken to the US Marshall that was on the plane (he died in the crash). And basically, he commits perjury - for Kate's sake. Or is it? One by one, the layers of deceit are being pulled away from the story of the survivors.

The Forgiving Mother
The DA was planning on using Kate's mother to testify against her, but she ultimately changed her mind, even after Kate refused to let her see Aaron. This is how Kate got out easy: 10 years probation and lockdown in California. To which she says "I have a son, I'm not going anywhere."

The Island Son: Aaron
To give us some perspective on where in future time we are, we see Aaron and he's between two and three years old, I'd say (do you agree?). He calls Kate mommy, so he's convinced that she's his mom. But I wonder who they are claiming his father is? How did they figure out this conspiracy? Either they were stranded on the Island long enough (9 months+) for her to have gotten "knocked up" by one of the 8 survivors, or she was pregnant before she got on the Island, right? Because she couldn't have gotten pregnant with Aaron after she left the Island. Nor could she have given birth after getting rescued (because Claire gave birth to Aaron, not Kate). Sooo...it looks like that freighter isn't going to be rescuing anyone soon.

"There's not much to say for me, it's ok, you know that girls like mystery."
OK, so those lyrics have been in my head for a couple of days now. They're from a Cribs song. And there's really not much to say about the man of mystery: Ben. Miles is willing to strike a deal with Ben, tell "them" that Ben is dead in exchange for $3.2 million (or was it billion?). Umm, sure. BTW, it was Kate who arranged the meeting between the two of them by infiltrating camp Locke, sleeping with/using Sawyer (but not in that way, they just slept in the same bed. Really.) and "scooby doo-ing" Hurley into telling her where Miles was locked away. Nicely done, but not much of a story there. Locke is starting to grow frustrated and Jack finds out that Frank, Sayid and Desmond haven't yet made it back to the freighter. We'll find out what happened to them next week.

Island life is getting kinda boring. It was good to see Jin and Sun again. They are trying to figure out where they are going to live: Jin wants to be in the US, Sun wants to go back to Korea. I think there was some foreshadowing of a rift between the two.

More questions: What ends up happening between Jack and Kate? They seem to be at good terms after his testimony, but then Kate avoids bearded Jack in the distant future. Did you see that she had the same Volvo parked in her driveway that she did in "Through the Looking Glass"? Jack's driving the beat up Jeep also. And why does Kate's lawyer look so familiar? How cool was the grenede in the mouth of the loudmouth?! And someone please help me here: where does Kate find matching, sexy underwear? And why would she wear it if it's not hers?!

I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the title of the episode: Eggtown. Was it named that because of the fried eggs Locke made for Ben? Or because of the eggs getting impregnated on the Island? Another mystery. But girls like that, right?
