I love Sayaid episodes and this one was really no exception. I'm not sure that Locke knew that the place was going to blow, but I'm sure he thought he was doing the right thing in sending out a warning once they'd discovered that Patchy wasn't who he said he was. The man latches on to things and plays with them obsessively. He's exactly the kind of guy who would poke around on a strange computer under he figured out what it does. That's what he did in the hatch, that's absolutely in character with what he'd do here.
Locke has never been a big picture guy. He's always been a "oooh shiny and possibly important, let me play with it" type. I think Ample's closing thought is also really appropriate here. Though the island is becoming increasingly home to most of the losties, it has taken particular importance for Locke. If he can help himself stay there, even at their expense, I think he'll take it.
Kate continues to be lame, though. It was nice to see Sawyer really put in his place for once. I don't think he'll soon forget it. The camp could get tense later this season, I think.
