Lost: "The Man from Tallahassee" Recap

#

Everyone on this island is connected, right? But how? Conspiracy Theory #4,387: They've all got daddy issues. First, there's Jack. His dad was an alchie and -- as we learned last week -- not the most faithful of family men. Claire's father was Jack's father, so enough said. Kate's dad was off in the army, so she instead got abused by her stepdad until she blew him up. Sawyer's dad killed Sawyer's mom before killing himself... in Sawyer's bedroom...¦ while Sawyer was under the bed. Sun's pop was a mob boss who turned her husband (who was ashamed of his own father's meager roots as a fisherman) into a criminal. Hurley's dad only returned to the family he left behind when a couple mil were involved. Desmond's potential father-in-law quite literally banished him to the ends of the Earth. Walt had some visible trouble with Michael's parenting style, and Shannon and Boone were step kids in love, so that's bound to speak to poor parenting somewhere. Then, of course, there's Locke. He thought he was in a bad way when he didn't even know who his less-than-proud papa was. Little did he know the barrels of fun his biological father would bring. A con and a kidney later, he's got a bit of resentment.
