youd think shed mention the whole make up and wardrobe get up thing about the others now that michael is claiming they are worse off etc... i assume theyll mention it next episode, considering how walt said "they arent what they seem!" and then they played some creepy music... i guess they are waiting for everything to be put together, sayid knowing michael is lieing, kates knowledge, and then ambush michael on the way out to the other side of the island

Remember, Kate has already told Jack, so he is also keeping quiet.

I agree. One would think that they would put the beard, hatches, and the others together to realize that they are not quite what they seem. Also, when we saw Kate and Michael both in the camp--Zeke was whispering to Michael at first, but then said "gag him" quite loudly. I would think that Kate would have heard that.

Seems like none of the Losties like to talk about stuff. Neither Eko or Locke has told anyone about the Pearl hatch yet. Eko had the perfect opportunity to tell Jack but didn't.

I wish these people would start talking to each other!

Kate was also there when Alex was telling Michael that walt was ok. Even though she couldn't see she could hear and she should of put that together that Michael was right there being told his son was fine. Which then of course proves he lied to them about just finding the camp when in reality he was also captured.

Eko and Locke just found the Pearl like 12 hours ago! They're not even sure what to make of it. Why would they want to go out and tell everyone else? I mean, imagine the damage that would do to the new structure of island society, after Locke spent all that time convincing people to push the button with no reason.

Ok, Kate told Jack about finding the medical hatch, but did she specifically say anything about the beard and the other items in the locker?

A good point is the fact that Kate is not that far from Michael while all of that talking was going on. What did she hear?

Did Kate actually get a good look at Zeke while he held her and then turned her over to Locke, Sawyer and Jack? If not, then maybe that is why she is not putting 2 and 2 together with the beard and items in the locker.

Yes? No?

While I agree that it's fishy that they aren't better at sharing information--seemingly important information--maybe the key is in what the lady at Zeke's camp told Michael: someting along the lines of "make up a story, they'll be scared enough to believe anything"

excellent point! The way she was questionning, she seemed more like a psychologist or some sort of scientist, (a doctor?) than a "powerful business woman."
