“I changed my mind”
So locke belayed the rope and climbed down with his bloody hands? Doc has some sensibility to him, gloving up.
Great, Jack, Captain Kirk your way into a flashback…
Some sort of bizarre self-torture involving stadia…
Who’s the Irishman? With the teeny tiny ponytail?
“Ah, a girl patient”
“You must have done something worthy of this self-flagellation”
“But what if you did?”
“And you don’t believe in miracles” This must be later that evening…
“You have to lift it up” ?
“Your ankle”!
“See you in another life, yeah?”
What a bloody odd conversation. Which covers the landing in the bottom.
Go to the light! But , you know, carefully.
Hey, it’s the klieg lights!
Whatinhell is he looking for?
Whose sneakers?
Graffitti? It’s a shrine..
Magnetic thingie in wall?
Okay, that’s freaky. And the lights do bang on.
Geodesic dome? With an old computer in it. Kate hollering in background, don’t you hear her?
Oh, that’s a command prompt, not a smiley.. >: | With no rooted drive set in.. predates them, I guess.

And we are back in the stinking flashback, dammit. “Wow, you really smell”
It was that same day…
“Tour de stade” I agree with her: why would you do that?
Kevin won’t be here ever again, no doubt.
He’s odd, in that he’s so definite about it.
“How come I can wiggle my toes?”
Hee! Saw that coming.
Desmond was a miracle man.
Oh, great, he’s crying with joy.. that’s.. beautiful.
Who is holding the gun?
DESMOND!!!!!!!!
HOLY BATSHIT!!!
“Brother”!!!!!!!

Of course, if anyone was gonna do the run and stumble, it'd be Shannon. And also, Walt? Shades of "The Shining". The great book, not either lousy movie.

So all this time, hatch-guy has been keeping in shape for the right girl, perhaps? Perhaps. Although if that was a steroid he injected, and if he's been taking them all this time, then his testicles are probably the size of pistachios. I was thinking that they were steroids at first, but what if they're anti-radiation meds, or something else?

I have a very so-so reaction to this premiere. It was OK. Not exactly filled with a "can't wait for next week!" feeling. Crazy French Lady, now Crazy . . . what?. . . English? Australian? I didn't pay a lot of attention to the accent . . guy. There are so many characters to keep track of, already. I know we lost Boone, but we gotta gain this guy? And he seems unrelated to the "others" who kidnapped Walt, but who knows. And I am perilously close to adding "who cares?" "Irish" I think.

How long would Jack have lasted as a doctor if he was as unprofessional with all patients as he was with Sarah?
I wonder if Sarah lost her mobility after she married Jack, and their marriage fell apart?
Serious weirdness at the end of the episode.
And is poor little Walt dead, since Shannon saw him?
GAIL How was he unprofessional with Sara? (sp is same as the Planetary Voice of Reason's) I thought he was rather crappy with her, at first, in the lousy bedside manner, but not so much with the unprofessional.

So, the title: I'm thinking both phrases apply to Jack? (Not one to Jack, the other to Locke.) I think that they both apply to Jack, actually.

GAIL How was he unprofessional with Sara? (sp is same as the Planetary Voice of Reason's) I thought he was rather crappy with her, at first, in the lousy bedside manner, but not so much with the unprofessional. First he tells this patient that there's no chance at all she'll ever regain more than limited mobility; which I don't think is something a doctor would do when the patient has just been through an accident, they'd tell them what the problem is and say they need to do surgery, and they'll know more after the surgery - I can't see any doc being so definite at that point. Then, when the patient wakes up after surgery, her surgeon has been waiting around for her to be coherent enough to communicate properly? Waking up from anesthesia occurs over a long while; when one first awakens, one is groggy and disoriented. It looked like Jack had been hanging around waiting for Sarah to awaiken, which no surgeon would do.
But worst of all was Jack telling this poor woman who was supposedly paralyzed that he'd been running and had hurt his ankle, and then saying how sorry he was that he hadn't helped her - with tears in his eyes. That's bound to make a frightened patient feel worse. If I were facing paralysis, I would be horrified if my doctor were babbling about running and hurting his ankle, and was practically crying at me - I'd want sympathy, but not tears from him...And I don't think tears, red eyes, obvious signs of deep distress are considered part of the professional behavior expected from a doctor talking to his patient about her condition.

“Joke, dude” “Really? Like usually you’re Mr. Haha. “ “and occasionally somebody blows up all over you, but you get to sleep in in the morning..” Well, Hurley’s telling the numbers story. Hurley’s lost weight. “Well, actually, meteorite” Locke would be pleased.. “You were in a psych ward?” “Yours sucks, dude” He’s not wrong.. This exchange made me hate Jack a little. Anyone notice how both men - science and faith - chose to ignore and/or discount Hurley? Idiots.

Interesting how Vincent led Shannon to the spot. That dog has an agenda... Incidentally, I played Walt's whisper back five times, and it's completely unintelligible. Dammit.

Seriously, I understand your frustration. "Lost" just continues to answer questions with more questions. Such methods can get old after a while, no matter how brilliantly they're done. Still, I have to admit: I'm sucked in again. Can't wait to see more next week, if only to find out what happened to the rafting crew.

Wow. Naked guy with protein shakes and abs. That's the big surprise in the hatch? Guy appears to have been there since what - the 60s? Very weird. And this Jack's bride backstory - how snoozy! Can I just say that was my initial reaction? A Jack backstory - oh please, please no. Though hee, hee on his funky long hair which kept throwing me because he looks so different. Weird opening.

Walt did not look so good, did he? Also, I guess the guy in the hatch will be seeing Kate's butt coming down in the mirror? Knowing what happened to Locke's last sidekick, I'm surprised that Kate agreed to go down that hatch in his place.
Walt looked older and taller to me. Not surprising, since the young actor was 13 last spring; it's the age when boys start growth spurts and all. Weird appearance...Of course, we have no idea if that's really Walt....
GAILVery good point Gail. I thought that too. And since Hudson is 13 and is now as tall as I am, it is definitely growth spurt time. Walt (whatever his real name is) is probably very happy about it no matter what the producers think as I know Hudson is thrilled he is finally getting taller.
