by the way, what was that on Alex's right ear as she was speaking with Rousseau, it looked like something metal and I didn't think they would have her wearing earrings.

Where did she go? Carl was hit several times, Rousseau was only hit once. Locke was shot by Ben and made a full recovery.

I noticed it too.

It was just a little beaded thing at the end of a braid of hair, hanging in front of her ear.

Well, the "Next On Lost" bit will certainly give people something to talk about concerning
Spoiler:
the Oceanic 6, who it would seem are now definitively revealed.

Well last weeks preview did make it a point of saying 'ONE OF THESE PEOPLE WILL DIIIIIEEEEEEE!!!!!!' so I'm assuming that's what they were referring to ....

Good to see Mr Friendly again. Didn't realize he was quite that friendly.

It was an ok episode.

However, the less an episode takes place on the Island, the less I like it.

And they didn't give the info that they promised. How did Michael and Walt make it from the tiny boat on the Island back to NYC? Did they take the boat all the way there (impossible). Who found them? Where did they go? How did they get there?

No answers to that at all.

I'll state the obvious before someone else does. Sayid turning in Michael was Sayid "thinking with his heart instead of his gun". I am sure this is the incident that Ben was talking about when he was stiching up Sayid in the future.

I doubt we've seen the last of Rousseau, even in the current timeframe. Heck, haven't Damon & Carlton talked about her eventually having her own flashback episode?

So, I guess Ana Lucia had one too many DUI charges to even appear as a "ghost" to Michael. I was surprised to see Libby make a couple of appearances.

So, the island won't let Michael die. Interesting. And Kate REALLY wasn't Tom's type. And it was hard to follow the timeline for Michael's flashback. Tom was off the island so are we to assume that was before Locke blew the sub? Or do they have another way off the island no one else knows about? When exactly did Ben make that first call to Michael.

Also, I know for you people that don't watch the commercials and such you won't know what I'm talknig about, but during the commercial breaks right before it came back to Lost, did anyone else notice the subliminals advertising the return of The Mole. I'm pretty excited about that!

I saw the Mole flash, I think they were going to run it and didn't. I don't think it was subliminal, just a mess up.

Nope. They did it at least twice.

When Michael was trying to shoot himself in the apartment, wasn't Slaughterhouse Five, or a program discussing it, on his television? Weren't the events of that book discussed a lot after The Constant aired with regard to the whole "unstuck in time" business?

The biggest pieces of information tonight were in the commercials and the "Next On Lost", lol.

So, do we really not "spoiler" what they showed in the Next segment? That's ... awkward.

For those of us who require captions to watch TV, would someone please please transcript the previews. Spoilerized, of course!

It seems they are going to be discussed endlessly until April 24, and it's gonna drive me nuts not knowing what was said . . .

TIA!


BTW...many of you may not realize it, since most don't watch with captions, but the "next week on..." segments for all TV shows are never captioned. Often, neither are the "previously on.." segments.

I don't require captions and it drives me nuts that they do that. I sometimes can't make out some words and turn on the captioning to figure out what they said. I try doing that with the previews and nothing.

The major thing indicated in the previews:

Spoiler:
The voice over indicated "now that all of the Oceanic Six have been revealed ..." as they show each of the O6's faces. The 5th shown is Aaron. So I guess acorns count.


For those trying to stay true to no spoiler ... this isn't a spoiler, per se. I actually would recommend you read it.

They hinted at that before.

I took it to be very close to "present day" (on the island). We know when Christmas Eve is and in Manhattan, due to decorations, it was close to Christmas.

I would say Mr. Friendly got off the island another way other than the sub.

Well, I'd say somewhere between Thanksgiving and Christmas...

So....

Previously, the captain of the freighter (who clearly works for Widmore) told Sayid and Desmond that Ben Linus planted the fake 815 crash.

In this episode Tom tells Michael that Widmore planted the fake crashed plane!

So....

Either:
  • One of them is lying, or
  • A THIRD PARTY actually planted the plane and Widmore thinks Ben's people did it and Ben's people think Widmore did it!

I love it.

Oh, and by the way, we now know why Tom once told Kate, "Don't worry, you're not my type."

I think we've known Tom was gay for quite a while. It's not news.

I don't think there was ever any ambiguity about what he meant when he told Kate she wasn't his type. (Have you seen Kate? )

I wouldn't consider the beginning of the previews a spoiler it all. It's actually not even a preview. Since it doesn't reveal anything from a future episode, aren't we free to discuss it spoiler-tag-free?

If Widmore is the bad guy, then he conveniently has Frank Lapidus to help with his cover story. I'm leaning toward Ben being the bad guy. But, I guess Miles (by his silence) confirmed that their orders are in fact to kill everyone else, right? I'm not sure why they want Ben, only thought I have is something having to do with revenge for the Dharma purge.

Shouldn't the bomb have been unable to work regardless of whether Ben had rigged it, assuming the island really did prevent the gun from working? And I guess the car accident as well?

I was a little disappointed also that we didn't see how Michael and Walt actually got back, but I'm happy with what we got. I liked how it was mostly flashback material.

It would have to be before Tom was killed, which I believe was around 12/22. Could be narrowed down further perhaps if there's a gap in times when Tom is known to be on the island.

If nothing else, this episodes solves one thing: Who is the hottest woman on the island? Has to be Tania Raymonde (Alex). I always thought that to be the case. BTW, it will be her 20th birthday on Saturday.

What does it matter what her age is. If you think she's hot that just say so no need to justify it. I have always liked Claire and the other girls that were one Roswell and thought they were hot. Is there any reason I shouldn't have thought that?

Seriously, though...

Not to that, but still lots and lots and lots of answers. Heck, Basil "Mr. Friendly" Exposition did a great job confirming all sorts of things people had posted in prior threads.

She's hot, but really, if you thought Kate was thin, holy cow. Her body's only like 2" thick.

Miles just gets creepier every time he shows up -- like when he was on the boat with the orange.

Nice to see that Michael is haunted by Libby. I would've liked to see Anna Lucia haunt him as well.

How did Michael & Walt get to NYC?? Obviously they are NOT part of the Oceanic 6.

I guess "Kevin" can't die because he is alive in the future; so how could he be dead in the past?
