I also thought baby Kwon could have been the package (especially after Widmore gave Jin the camera), but then I thought (hoped) there is no way Widmore would keep the girl locked up in the same way he would Desmond.I thought this was a good episode - and like you Others (posters!) thought it moved the story along nicely. I liked the way Widmore reintroduced the electromagnetic forces of the island theme again. That is bringing us back to the beginning of our story - how the plane crashed - in a way that is more consistent with the first 4-1/2 seasons than just good Jacob vs. evil MIB controlling the island.
I wonder if Desmond has more knowledge of the electromagnetic forces than we were led to believe or if he just being used as a tool by Widmore. I listened to Lindelof's and Cuse's podcast this week and when asked when Desmond was coming back they pointed out that his name has been in the opening credits every week, so yeah he's going to be important.
Ben's episode was still my favorite, but this one is up there!
