S1: ...In Translation

So the viewer got to see only a little about Jin so far, but now he finally gets his own episode.  As with our other Losties, Jin doesn't have the best pre-island life.  He needs to do as Sun's father wishes in order to marry her.  Unfortunately this leads him to having to get his hands dirty, which he does so to save an employee's life.

On island, Sun finally drops the bomb that she speaks English which will help the story going forward, but causes a rift between her and Jin.  Jin decides to separate from her and help Michael build his boat.

Besides Sun finally revealing her bilingual status, there was a great scene between Jin and his father.  He told everyone his father was dead because he was ashamed.  They have a really good conversation and Jin's plan is to deliver the watches per Sun's father's request and then run away with her.  It's ironic while he's planning to run away WITH her that she plans to run away WITHOUT him, but she ultimately stays so they can grow together and unfortunately for the time being they've grown apart.

In other news, Hurley's CD batteries have finally run out of juice.
