I must be in the minority since I loved this episode.
I love your post, trying to figure out your post is like watching LOST and trying to make sense of what you've seen.
I think you're technically correct, and I didn't think of the episode that way. All the London stuff was Desmond's post-Hatch experience with his weird sense of deja-vu, thus making it NOT a flashback but a flash - what? flash forward? flash sideways? flash upside down and backwards?
I'll watch it again and see if I like it any better.
I can't help it, though, I want the old gang back on the Island trying to muddle through while we got glimpses of who they are and how they're related to one another, none of which they realize. I loved the first season.
That being said, I have the suspicion that the Others and the Islanders will eventually team up to fight Dharma. Dharma is the big brother of the Islands, the force that is keeping all of them stuck there. Or so it seems....
