I almost think that they've gone too far over-compensating for everybody's lack of curiosity in the first 2 seasons — at this point, it's kind of annoying to have people shouting "tell me what's going on!!!" and then stopping everything to explain. Maybe there's a happy middle ground where the characters who know stuff spend more time separated from the characters who don't. Then at least we in the audience can get some answers. And Jack, Kate, Locke et. al can just go screw themselves — you had two whole years to ask questions, but you didn't!

He comes across Juliet talking to a person he has never seen before, and that person disappears, not just runs off into the jungle, but disappears into thin air, with spooky voices. Then they just continue on into the jungle.
