This is the sort of episode that frustrates the life out of me but also makes me want to continue watching as I am certain the final pay off will be worth it (well it better be!) There is always so much goes on in the background that needs to be noticed. Now I may be wrong as the episode requires a second viewing but I believe that Desmonds flashes showed Charlie holding the parachute which meant although he had foreseen his death he had to save him.
Also at the monastery the chief monk who fired Desmond had a picture on his desk. That was a picture of the old woman from the jewellery shop where Desmond tried to buy his ring in a previous episode. There was only a fleeting glimpse of this but it held long enough for it to be noticed adding to the long list of unusual coincidences. It is this sort of thing that leads me to believe that everything has to tie together.
Also the foreign language catch 22 book surely has to be important, a further detail in the background to consider.
As far as I am concerned a truly great show that can make an hour go past with tantalisingly small pieces of information that promise greater delights in the future.
P.S Being Scottish its good to see a Scottish presence in a worldwide hit but Desmonds fiancée had the worst Scottish accent ever. Also why did Desmond have to be a Celtic supporter!!!
