D.O.C. was mediocre for me. Wasn't exciting enough and I can't put my finger on why. I also did not read the insider scoop spoilers for this episode so I was expecting to enjoy it more. LOL. That did not happen.

It answered the question of Sun's baby's paternity and opened up more questions. Like for one, is healing, sperm etc are speed or boosted up on the island. Is pregnancy sped up? Why are the mother's dying? Or is Juliet just plain lying again. Also would the women survive if they aborted? Are they given this option?

It clarified that Juliet is taking blood samples from the women to see if any are pregnant. Let's hope Kate has an IUD that we don't know about or she is likely with child given Sawyer's shooting super-sperm!

It also clarified that Juliet hates Ben - I still think she is working as a double agent at this point in time.

Mikhail being alive - well he said Naomi would heal from a lung puncture in 1.5 days. The island healed him and rapidly as it does everyone else. Seems plausible to me. Mikhail is an interesting character, he seems to be honest, will stick to his word, but is an "other". I find him intriguing.

The only interesting exchange was at the end between Hurley and Naomi - the found the wreck, everyone was dead.

Let the questions begin:
Is she plain nuts?
Is she telling the truth?
Did someone stage a second wreckage?
Is she a plant by the others?
Was she sent by Penny to look for Desmond?
Alternate dimension?
Time travel?
Was the finding of 815 a lie given to the public?
Purgatory? Which was supposedly dismissed by the writers.

And just an FYI on what Naomi said translated:

* "Me estoy muriendo" is Spanish for "I am dying" (from the captions).
* "Aiutami sto morendo" is Italian for "Help me I'm dying" (from the captions; partially incorrect, but comprehensible).
* She mutters in an "asian language" (from the captions) which Jin claims is Chinese, not Korean. "出了什么事?(chu le shen me shi)" is Chinese for "What happened?" or "What's going on?".
* After Mikhail and Desmond treat Naomi's wound, she says something in Portuguese not spelled out in the captions. It is not "Thank you" as Mikhail claims. Instead, it sounds like "Eu não estou só" which is Portuguese (spoken with a Brazilian accent) for "I am not alone." The "Ardil-22" book is also Portuguese.

"I am not alone" - someone else arrive with Naomi?? Penny? Guys from the listening station? Or if she is an "other" plant - someone else returning to the island?
