**picks up fallen stump of candle, begins to explore the winding twisting passageways** **snicker** I can't wait 'til Boone is asking Sun to find him some island plants he can use to tattoo Locke's name on his butt. Very very cute . For, you know, a mutant demon child. Very nice, very pithy. I don't think I am a Walt's mom fan either. Yep, I can really see why he went as nutty as he did. And Locke just took the blame, took the high road. But the nuttiness didn't look too good in Walt's eyes. No, this is good. Now Claire's mutant spawn will have someone to bond with. Me thinks Susan too enamoured of Brian and his high rolling life to think very hard about whether or not he'd be a good daddy. Very not so smart mommy. **giggles** **giggles so hard she drops the candle stump and is now fumbling around the stalagtites and stalagmites trying to find her way out of Spring's mind** Eeeek! A bat! Yep. I really loved that little touch. He wants you to have him. Heh. ;D Take that, letter-withholding kid-dumping lawyer guy! But at least we know she liked Charlie and felt safe with him. At least before they were both kidnapped and dragged through the jungle and almost killed and stuff. Um. So maybe she's not feeling that so much about him now. Yup. And now we have CFL again next week instead of finding out what happened to Claire's spawn!!! No fair! Lola I'm joining you in the pouting corner. Me, too. Except I'm rolling on the floor laughing my ass off. Too funny, Lola! |

Who is left for backstory now, of the "regulars?" Just Hurley? I think so. I mean, we still need more background on all of them, but first Hurley, since he's the one we haven't seen any flashbacks for yet. Lola I like Hurley so much I'm kinda afraid what they'll do with him. |

LOL! I'm sure he will soon be wearing Locke's claddagh ring. In his nose. Michael - well-intentioned and inexperienced and feeling totally powerless. Though not so much anymore. You make a good point. All kids need friends, even if they can summon polar bears to tear you into shreds. Sorry. How'd that get in there? Must clean out my ears better in the shower tomorrow morning. Don't stick that lip out too far. You never know who might try to get it. |

I don't think Michael will be in Locke's thrall ala Boone, but I'll bet Locke has won him over. I plan to hang in there. Though I do think we are lookng a special powers boy here. I wonder why Sawyer stole Claire's diary? Maybe he took it when Charlie was out of his mind. He didn't fight about giving it up, like he did with other things he took for 'safe keeping'. Hmmmmm. Agree about Walt. He has 'special powers', and I think it's a good thing that Michael managed to bond with him so that he doesn't get 'raised by another'. I wonder if Michael will still want to build the raft after this. |

It's making me wonder if Walt crashed the plane because he didn't want to be on it being taken away from his home. Like crashing the bird into the glass door. Also. Very nifty idea - that Michael needs to raise Walt - paralleling the Claire storyline. I hadn't thought of it that way. Lola Looked not pregnant to me, but it was pretty quick. I kind of think they all 'wished' that plane crash. |

I wondered that myself, but then she died, so then I didn't think that anymore. But the blood disease was sudden and serious.  Yes - I had the same thought. I mean, I wondered if Walt was somehow causing his mother to feel badly, just as with the bird, but . . . I agree. When she died, I thought that surely, we are not meant to think that Walt caused her death. That would be too ooky. And that image: A bird dying because the bird didn't realize the glass was there, so it flies right into the glass, and dies. Later, Locke comments to Boone on how "you can't hear everything" that's there - something going on there, thematically, and if I was doing the review, I'd worry about it. But we'll let Patti concern herself with these things this week. |

I wonder if that picture in Walt's comic book of what looked like some kind of towers/communication on a globe has anything to do with the hatch and/or the transmission. Also, Patti's aliens were in that comic book, too. I have a bad feeling about that box of pictures that Michael gave to Walt, too. Oooooh! Like an underground city! **bounce, bounce** Much more fun than radioactive black rocks. The box of pictures and cards and stuff has me nervous too. We've already seen how Walt maybe is making the pictures come true. And that one card had a penguin with a sunburn! Scary! Well, it also had a lighted birthday cake on Michael's lap, which is maybe a bit scary for him but I bet everyone else would like cake. Lola |

What's the potential problem? A plague of sunburned penguins? *snort* Well, we didn't see the rest of the pictures. What I was really worried about was that Michael was going to give Walt the pencil. I think that it might be worse if Walt actually drew his own pictures. |

Is that what I'm hearing? |

I wonder if Michael will still want to build the raft after this. The raft thing is a very good idea now that it can be a Walt powered raft. He just has to keep focusing in his mind on them finding land with a link back to the rest of the world, or being saved by a ship or something. Lola |

Lighted candkes. *birthday* cake. Claire's baby's birthday. Someone hurt and tied up. Ooo, and an underground city! I want to know what's down that hatch! 'If you build it, they will come." |

And Shannon and Jin's point of view backstory. Is just a guess, but I don't think we are going to get Shannon and Jin backstories separately. I think the Sun and Boone backstory took care of that. Though - I suppose "flashbacks" will be a continuing part of the way the story of the castaways will be presented, throughout the series' run. |

In a way the bird also parallels what happened to Michael--they both had collisions with something they didn't see that was nonetheless right in front of their eyes. |

I kind of think they all 'wished' that plane crash. That would really fit with your idea that none of them were going where they planned, that they all kinda took a wrong turn, as it were. The mental pull of all of them combined, a whole plane load of "I don't want to be here - I want to be somewhere else - I need to find XXXX" thoughts, could be what brought them down. Huh. Lola |
