Response:

I can't believe that Jack was really trying to commit suicide by blowing up the plane together with other 103 people in it! If I were Kathryn, I might just pass out because of all the things that had been so confusing. I have not reached the climax till now. It takes a little bit too long, I guess. But it's okay as long as I enjoy the story.=P
