I rather liked the bare-bones way they went about it. It would have seemed stupid to me if they pretended there was some suspense - - like as if Jack wasn't going to replace Jacob from about the fifth episode of the series.
Anyway, they had the Ask Jacob Questions Around the Campfire scene that I've been waiting for all season. I can't really blame them for only covering the major, major questions - otherwise that scene would have had to have been a double episode all its own. Would have been fine by me, but I can see why they want to move things along at a brisker pace.
And I think Richard's alive (otherwise why not show it?), and I'm sure Ben is double-crossing Flocke. How much more could that have been telegraphed? Like I said, twists are fine - cheats are not. Ben is still on "our" side.
