...Shannon, but because Matthew Fox was donning a horrible mop-top wig. Meanwhile, on the other side of the island, Sawyer is reeling in pain. The mysterious “Others” start that creepy whispering and in one instant another person is taken. Cut back to pouring rain (damn those tropical islands!) and Sayid is chasing Shannon through the forest. She’s sobbing and yelling at Sayid for not believing her about Walt. After all the crap she has been through I can’t blame her, but she should really hold onto Sayid because...
...nothing ever seems to materialize. I certainly didn’t find much of a party at Springfest last year where the much-vaunted “Afterparty” attracted far fewer than 200 students and cost about $16,000—nearly $100 per rain- and mud-soaked attendee. Nor was Havana on the Harbor much fun; $2,500 was spent on 40 students—many of whom later wanted their money back.

But, although these narratives drive their characters to a single point in space and time, they never seem to converge thematically. Where the rain of frogs at the end of the movie Magnolia came on like a cathartic, physical manifestation of all the character's exploding emotions, the big payoff in Tricked just seems contrived. After taking pains to present a messy, complex life-like structure, it resolves into a conventional wrap-up where...
