...she's putting bullets into a scumbag? I thought the way she looked and carried herself in that scene was powerful and very sexy!

Maybe I'm just sick in the head though? ;)

Sorry! I think it's just you...

When she did that, I was like "YES!!!" lol. It was the first time I really connected with her.

Wish she would have put the last bullet in her own head!

Maybe you should go see someone about that. That's a little scary.

I agree that, even if you don't find her sympathetic, AL is becoming a much more fleshed out character. I may not love her to pieces, but I can see now that she acts the way she does because she's so messed up over her past (like all of the lostaways).

I had my fingers crossed that she was gonna be the first and only suicide on the Island. When Sayid was tied up and she was sitting on the log, I thought, "Just end it, you psychopath!"

Wish she would have put the last bullet in her own head!

That's a victims dream, I would think- to empty a gun into the perp.

I actually loved her more last week when there was a comment about cutting the guy's fingers off and she said "That's tomorrow"

AnaLucia is not a psychopath nor a sociopath. She is major depressed and has repressed her feelings. She is on the edge of a snap BUT that may not happen, she may be able to back away.

Good call about her being on the edge of snapping. The crying, the lonesome introspectives, the abondonment by her "crew/followers", the accidental shooting.

Ana-Lucia, if you can hear me, swallow the barrel of that 45!

No, she's just a coldblooded murderer. That's all.

yep. i cant stand her. Her and Danielle( who i dont like either) should take each other out.

Then so is Jack, Sawyer, Kate, Charlie, Danielle, and Sayid.

:)

And, yes, that was a friggin cool scene. On a superficial level it was such a badass thing to do....on a realistic level, it was somewhat justified, yet still a horrible decision, if for no other reason that she in that moment destoryed herself. But if it had been Jack or Sawyer or even Kate, more people would have been saying "That was so hot and cool!" But it's Ana so anything she does people hate. Such stupidity and hypocracy. She could return and befriend Claire, save Aaron's life, hell even kill all of the Others and rescue Walt, and people would still hate/bash and make idiotic comments about bullets to the head. I say, I've never heard such insanely over the top comments about a character in my entire tv watching era. It's truly pathetic, especially after such a poignant episode. But I'm tired of defending good writing and acting to people who have no grasp on great television. Ana acted the way she did b/c she lost it, she finally had an emotional break and she friggin lost it. Opinions are one thing, but ignorance is another. I have met several cool people who say "I still greatly dislike Ana, but at least I understand her more." That's maturity. I think people who want to shoot her in the head/have the monster eat her/hang het have serious mental issues, honestly. And please don't give me any of that "You're being rude we're just giving our opinion." That's crap, you're not simply disliking her or giving your opinion, some of you are making outright evil comments. If anyone's cold blooded and onbnoxious, it's not the character, it's you.

I just see her as someone with extreamly poor judgement.

The guy who shot her-Because she trusted he was a student.

Nathan-Because she decided he was never on the plane and up to no good.

Goodwin-Took a while to catch on to him.

Even after shooting Shannon, which I feel was a complete accendent. She was more then willing to kill Syaid to save her own skin.

She showed she is willing to leave anyone behind, yet expects loyality from her fellow tallies.


So far all I see is someone who should never have a gun in her hand.

I also see her as someone with poor judgement. If their idea was to make me symphatize with her it failed miserably. I just don't like her.

Did any of you think about the fact that maybe YOU failed? The writers and actress did their job, it was many of the viewers that have floundered.

I think that too many times producers tend to give way too much credit to the tv audience, then they find that out and dummy down the show....which is what Lost will likely do now b/c of the outcries based on false interpretations and irrational judgements.

Then so is Jack, Sawyer, Kate, Charlie, Danielle, and Sayid.

No they are not, seeing as they have all showed remorse, AL on the other hand have yet to even acknowledge her actions. Besides when it is a crazy killer who just kidnapped your loved one and her unborn kid you are putting bullets in, that's not coldblooded. That's justice.

And who exactly did Danielle ever murder?

Also, I was referring to Ana-Bitch executing poor pretty Shannon and not the guy in the bar.

Oh, how I hated how she talked to Michael and Libby, as if all this shit was thrusted upon her and not her own doing.

"I'm already alone", yeah, I wonder why?

No they are not, seeing as they have all showed remorse, AL on the other hand have yet to even acknowledge her actions.

I am not an Ana fan (although I want to give the character a chance) but you can't say she didn't have remorse. Didn't you see the look on her face when she went over and looked at Shannon's body? That was remorse. Letting sayid go, giving him her weapons...practically begging him to kill her...that was remorse. She may not have remorse for killing the guy who shot her and ended her pregnancy (and I might not either) but she absolutely has remorse for killing Shannon.

Well, you might have a point. But I'm still pretty sure that when she was looking at Shannon's corpse, she was feeling more sorry for herself than Shannon.

And remember the look on her face right after she shot Shannon? Were there any remorse there? Or in the way way she acted afterwards, pointing the gun around and threatening the rest. Besides, did it not strike you as odd that she freed Sayid and began her seemingly remorse-campaign only AFTER her crew left her and she realized that was now totally by herself? Remember how she was acting only minutes ago when Michael just wanted to give Sayid some water?

That talk about surviving in the jungle by herself was just a bunch of hooey, she was just desperately trying the keep up her tough-girl facade which was now crumbling at an alarming rate.

I think we need to consider where Ana is at before we decide to bash her actions.

We know she was a cop, got shot, lost a baby, killed the guy who shot her and killed Shannon. Her back story gave us a glimps of her life's story but not all of it and I think her story, when told in full, will flush out where she is at at this moment on the island.

She has been losing it. Pure and simple. She trusted and lost all; the baby, her husband/boyfriend, eventually her job (or so we assume).Then she killed Shannon, in a way an opposite reaction-I trusted and lost all, now I won't trust so I won't lose all. I think killing Shannon may be a catylist to her recovery in that she is going to be forced to examine her judgement and how her experiences have changed the way she reacts or deals with various situations. At some point we all have to take a moment (or many) to examine why we do what we do, I believe Ana has never given herself time to do this.

As has been noted, four months isn't enough time to deal with what happened to Ana. There is more to her than we currently know. Perhaps she became pregnant and didn't want the baby; perhaps she always maintained that she wasn't mom material, then gets pregnant and comes to realize that being a mom is a worthwhile thing after all; perhaps Ana really didn't want to be a mom and didn't want to be pregnant, and now feels that not wanting the child brought about the situation where she loses the child and the ability to have more (karma). Perhaps everyone is happy that Ana is pregnant, even Ana and the loss of the child was such a blow to the world it's parents lived in that recovery was too painful to deal with; perhaps Ana feels so responsible for the childs death that all she can focus on is keeping those around her safe, even if that means accidentally shotting one of the other good guys. Perhaps experiencing death/loss in such a painful way brought Ana face to face with her own mortality, and an overwhelming fear of death she didn't know she possessed. Working through something like that would have to be very ugly.

The writers can take this to so many places even if that means Ana truely is a cold-hearted murderer. But, even someone evil becomes that way for a reason and I'm happy to sit back and see what unfolds...

I love the interaction between the characters and how everyone seems to love talking about this aspect of the show... sometimes the mystery and puzzles of the island take a backseat to the other dramas taking place between everyone.

...she's putting bullets into a scumbag? I thought the way she looked and carried herself in that scene was powerful and very sexy!

Maybe I'm just sick in the head though? ;)

Does it always have to be about sex? Can't it just be that she killed the guy that killed her baby.

sadly, I must admit I "enjoyed" the way her utility belt moved in sympathy with her hips when she walked !

Michelle gets my vote to play the next 'Terminator':biggrin:
