Jack and John have been colossal dumbasses for a good three seasons now. It's kind of sad that they're so integral to the plot. I seldom care or understand what in the flying fuck they're talking about or why they decide to do anything. I mean, John Locke's great plan now is to kill Jacob? Freaking fantastic. Let's wander aimlessly into the forest to try to kill an amorphous entity who may or not be human (or alive) and can only be seen and found by a "person" who has lived on the island for who only knows how long and doesn't seem to age. I'd sure get right behind that plan. And Jack's plan is to follow the ravings of a mad man and detonate a hydrogen bomb on the island. At this point, I'm going to guess that the bomb detonation is what leads to the "incident" in the first place as opposed to preventing it and just letting Dharma drill, but who knows.
I think that's why I like Ben, Daniel and Desmond episodes so much more these days. Ah well.
