I thought this was one of the best episodes of the season.
I agree that the theatrical costumes was a good twist. And yes, that was Zeke sans beard that Ethan was talking to.
However, I don't understand what was wrong with Claire in the flashback. Was she drugged or something to not remember that she had been kidnapped? And why was she so willing so just hang around without putting up any kind of fight - and then why was she willing to give up her child? I know she wanted to put the baby up for adoption in Los Angeles, but I don't think that's a strong enough reason to give her baby up to the people who kidnapped her.
I think it's safe to assume that the girl who helped Claire escape is Rousseau's daughter. That will be an interesting storyline to explore. After the episode where John, Jack and Sawyer were looking for Michael -- and Kate was being held captive by the Others -- someone mentioned that when Zeke said "Alex" they might be referring to Rousseau's daughter. Maybe now that can be explored a little more.

My biggest dislike was the very end, with the guy they have imprisoned in the hatch pissing Locke off. It made no sense. What he said to Locke didn't apply to anything, then Locke overreacts.... I didn't follow it.

I wasn't sure what to make of that either. I agree that Locke is too smart to be lead along, as the last poster pointed out. I thought then that maybe Locke was angry because he realized what the prisoner was trying to do and that confirmed that he was an Other. But then, in the preview for next week's episode, we see that Locke conspires with Anna-Lucia to get the prisoner out of the hatch. So now I'm not sure what to make of it...
