| My friends and I were really bothered by the idea that someone would have an unused pregnancy test on the airplane, and then, of course, Kate called it out in the episode. However, I've just been thinking about it, and I'm wondering why the writing staff decided it was so damn important to immediately establish that Sun was pregnant -- why it couldn't be dangled for a while, and then reveal itself naturally, the way it obviously would if they were actually, y'know, stranded on a desert island (an angle of the show that seems to be getting more and more ignored, have we noticed this?). The writers very specifically straddled the incongruity of someone packing a pregnancy test in their luggage, and even acknowledged that this was kind of out-of-place. Which, when coupled with the way Kate delivered the line, makes me think we're going to learn at some point whose pregnancy test it was (i.e., hers), and why they had it... unless I'm giving them too much credit for a sloppy contrivance, which is much more likely. |
