i loved this one. it was written by edward kitsis and adam horowitz, who are the champions of 'the socks,' so much so that it was generally their idea to introduce nikki and paolo in season 3 as a way to give us some insight into what might be happening behind the main characters. while nikki/paolo weren't so successfully executed (har har), i think these guys are quite good as writers - and this character of 'frogurt' is someone that has been joked about in podcasts for -years- now. so it was pretty great to see him realized.
this scene takes place just before michael offs ana lucia and libby, so it's reminding us of a lot of potential story points that may be coming up in season 4:
• michael's return
• filling in the missing piece of libby's backstory (which we have been promised)
• hurley's chance to confront michael about killing libby
like 'the watch,' it's laced with a sad ironic undertone. hurley has scored big time by landing libby, and yet we know as we watch this that he's just about to find her shot twice in the stomach.
i like the actor who plays frogurt, and hope that he wasn't flown all the way to hawaii just to star in a 3 minute mobisode. judging by his appearance, and the two appearances by arzt in the mobisodes, i think it's safe to say that season 4 is going to be doing a lot more revisiting of the on-island past.
