You Speak English? - "House of the Rising Sun" S1E6
Description
Sun's titular episode is, unfortunately, a big letdown. Because "House of the Rising Sun" holds its big reveal till the very end, we're left with a series of flashbacks that tell us very little about Sun's character. All we really learn is that her husband has a heartbreaking smile and possibly a penchant for breaking legs. The rest of the cast isn't given much more to do, and the most interesting subplot - between Charlie and Locke - is just table setting for next week's "The Moth."
It's the first misstep in an otherwise thrilling first season, but it lays the groundwork for more interesting episodes to come. We chat about whether we're Team Cave or Team Beach, and whether Michael comes off as more or less sympathetic when he's holding an axe.
