"Jin's killed before?" Shannon leaned away from Sun so she could get a good look at her face.
"No, but he's threatened to harm Michael before."
Kate reached over to put a reassuring hand on Sun's shoulder before asking the really tough question. "Are you really afraid of Jin?"
"What do you mean?"
Claire stepped up and elaborated. "Do you think he's going to hurt you, like seriously?"
"No, Jin would never do that. It's not in him to hurt me. Not physically. But mentally, he hurts me. He breaks my heart."
"Then don't tell him," Shannon stated.
"Shannon, do you really think it's right to not tell him he's going to have a child?" Kate scolded.
"Well, if she wants time that's cool. She should have about seven months before he finds out."
"Huh?"
"Well, when the baby comes out I think it will be noticeably not…how do you say it…black?"
"So you think I should wait?"
"What I think and what you're going to do are two different things Sun. Do what you think you should do, not what others tell you to do. If I always did what others wanted me to, I'd be married to A Rockefeller and having a passel of kids by now. I'd also be addicted to antidepressants and plastic surgery, so I knew I'd made the right choice."
"Rockefeller?"
"You guys know me and Boone are rich right?"
"Can I borrow some money?"
"What good is it going to do you here?"
Claire shrugged. "When we get off the island?"
"What makes you think we're getting off the island?"
"What makes you think we're not?"
"The fact that Hurley is walking around singing the Gilligan's Island theme song isn't helping, but there's also the fact that everyone is dying off."
"Who's died?" Sun asked.
"Scott…or was it Steve. Oh! And that chick that no one remembers."
"Oh, yeah."
"Yeah."
"Hmmm."
"Sure."
"We all got the Gilligan's Island theme in our heads now don't we?" Shannon asked.
"I don't know what song you are referring to," Sun replied while Kate and Claire merely nodded.
"Then we should teach it to you. How does it go guys?"
As one, Kate, Claire, and Shannon began to sing. Not loudly though, they didn't want to attract any undue attention. "Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale, a tale of a fateful trip, that started from this tropic port, aboard this tiny ship.
The mate was a mighty sailing man, the skipper brave and sure. Five passengers set sail that day, for a three hour tour, a three hour tour.
The weather started getting rough, the tiny ship was tossed, if not for the courage of the fearless crew, the minnow would be lost, the minnow would be lost.
The ship set ground on the shore of this uncharted desert isle,
With Gilligan,
The Skipper too,
The millionaire and his wife,
The movie star,
And The professor and Marianne,
Here on Gilligan's Isle!"
"Now the ending theme!"
"Shannon, I don't know that part."
"Claire do you?"
"Yep…
Together, "So this is the tale of the castaways, they're here for a long, long time.
They'll have to make the best of things, it's an uphill climb.
The first mate and the Skipper too, will do their very best, to make the others comfortable, in the tropic island nest.
No phone, no lights no motorcars, not a single luxury. Like Robinson Crusoe, as primitive as can be.
So join us here each week my friends, you're sure to get a smile, from seven stranded castaways, here on "Gilligan's Isle.
The girls began to laugh hysterically at themselves as a very confused Sun watched. When they finally calmed down enough to breathe, Sun asked a very relevant question.
"Who were those people?"
"Well, the skipper was…Gilligan was…you know what? Let's compare!" Shannon exclaimed and began to think. "Umm, the skipper would definitely be Locke."
"Oh! And Gilligan would be Boone cause Boone follows Locke everywhere like a puppy and is very clumsy!"
"Nah, that doesn't fit," Kate denied, "I think Gilligan would be Hurley. You know, funny and somewhat surprising?"
"Yeah, I can see that. I'm guessing, grudgingly might I add, that Boone and me would be the millionaire and his wife, except it would be the millionaire and his sister."
"Not necessarily. The millionaire and his wife could totally be Sun and Jin…oops…"Claire covered her mouth as if she'd uttered something very wrong.
"Moving on…The movie star would be...me!"
"Why you Kate?"
"I'm gorgeous."
"Don't mean nothing."
"Calm down you two. I think Kate would be Marianne."
"I guess that makes you Ginger, Claire?"
"If the shoe fits…"
"So who would be the professor?"
"Jack," Shannon and Claire agreed.
"But that means me and him are together on the show!" Kate exclaimed.
"Not necessarily! It was never really said whether he liked Ginger or Marianne better…oh! That means Jack and Claire get together!"
"Eww!"
"You're telling me!"
"No, but back to the point. Gilligan's Island rocked."
"Totally."
"I think I would have enjoyed this show," Sun said matter-of-factly.
"I think you would have. It was funny, and we all know, we're funny."
"Kate, are you saying that you admit you're funny looking?"
"Claire, the only one funny looking here is you."
"Sun, why do you think they fight so much?" Shannon whispered conspiratorially.
"I don't know."
"Well I do. They both want the professor and can't decide who gets him."
"The professor?"
"Jack."
"Oh…I can see that."
"I bet you can."
"What are you two talking about?"
"None-ya!"
"None-ya?"
"None ya business."
"Did you just get smart with me?"
"Why, Kate, would I do that?"
"Yes…so HAH!" Kate tackled Shannon, but over calculated. They went sailing backward…straight into the water.
"Kate! GET OFF OF ME! AH!" Shannon may have been screaming at Kate but she was also laughing by the time they got out of the water.
"Are you two done?"
"Claire, don't make me drag you in too."
"Do it!" Claire squealed as Kate began to run after her. So caught up in melee, none of them noticed the petite redhead studying them. Well, no one but Shannon.
"Why is she staring at me?"
"She's jealous," Sun replied.
"Of me? Why?"
"She is Boone's…how do you say…girlfriend?"
"Boone has a girlfriend? Here?"
"Yes. She knows who you are to him and is jealous of the attention he gives you."
"But he barely pays attention to me anymore!"
"Not true. When you are busy you do not notice that he is watching you. She does."
"That's creepy."
"Creepy?"
"Yeah, cause now I have to go find him and kick his ass."
Claire and Kate stopped playing enough to pay attention to Shannon and Sun. "Kick whose ass?"
"Kate, my dear, Boone's."
"Again?"
"I have a good reason now."
"What reason?"
"His girlfriend is jealous so he should pay attention to her. That's why I'm beating him."
"But she's jealous of everyone."
"How would you know?"
"Because just a few weeks ago she fancied herself in love with Charlie. Made a big thing about how I was stealing him away…"
"And then she had a thing for Sawyer, she called me a bitch. Oh, before that it was Jack, and she bad talked me all over the camp. I wanted to kick her ass."
Shannon thought for a minute. "Okay, so the way this is going, you're telling me I'm going to be bad mouthed all over the island by her just because she ahs a crush on Boone?"
"Maybe Sayid too."
"Not my Sayid. This must stop."
"What are you going to do?"
"Claire darling…I'm going to get her…I'm going to get her good."
Ooh, next up we have plans, pranks, and a little action between Sawyer and Boone. It's time for the boys to experience the bonding thing.
