Part I 84 days ago. Paolo is a chef. And from Brazil. And they were in on it together. Of course. So Nikki's a bitch. diamonds hidden inside the babuska dolls. Like the heroin inside the Virgin Marys. No polar bear bite. Hee. "Plywood" "Power Lines" Paolo lies. Who the hell's Paolo? Hee again. If he lies, that might be a good place to start. Like with The Others? Expose is the show that was being filmed. Boone and Shannon. So they're in the airport. Boone flirting with random guys? Promise me we'll never end up like them. Ouch. Day of the crash. Cool how they digitally added Nikki into those shots. They did add her digitally, right? Arzt! Paolo's dead too.

Part II Pants undone. Shoe in the tree. That is weird. Crime scene? Is there a forensic hatch Idon't know about? Hee. The monster. Ah, the monster they heard the first night. 6 days after the crash. Ethan! The fight about the water. This is from... 1.4 White Rabbit? So this is kind of like a clip show. Except not. The ever growing cemetary. Eko's you're next referring to Nikki and Paolo? Interesting theory. "Jabonies?" Eh? 57 days ago. Arzt set up a laboratory. Clever, and pompous. Pheremones. Nikki's a little bit like Kate. There's the drug plane. If I go up there, that things going to fall. They spotted the ? station. Certainly aren't team players for never telling anyone. Is that how they knew Dude... monster. Hee. They kept Arzt's bugs? Sawyer doesn't know Expose with all his pop culture knowledge? Like Baywatch, only better. walkie talky. how did they get it?

Part III
48 days ago.
Kate and her two boyfriends. Hee.
Searching the lagoon.
$8 million? holy hell.
Shirtless, wet Paolo. Yum.
He was holding out on Nikki? Is that why Nikki said that he lies?
Who knows why those people do anything? Heh.
Sun's kidnapping incident brought up again. Good continuity.
32 days ago.
Thing's don't stay buried on this island. Pick a spot that won't wash away.
So he did investigate the ? station. Hid the diamonds and retreived them later, and that's why he went to the bathroom? Yep.
And he saw Juliet and Ben in the ? station. The Other's visit it regularly. To observe, I guess.
Cover it up with the plane. The entrance. Was the plane moved?
Watching the swan station on the monitors.
Why are we doing this? Oh, getting Shepherd to do the surgery was the ultimate goal of abducting Jack, Kate, and Sawyer.
How are going to convince him? Same way I convince anybody to do anything, I find out what he's emotionally invested in, and I exploit it. So Ben's mother never taught him to say "please?"
That's how he got the walkie talkie. Which means he could have listened into The Other's conversation at some point.
Desmond: it doesn't work like that. Shades of The Dead Zone.
Nikki was with Sawyer this morning. Sawyer lied about that.

Part IV Vincent!! Sawyer's not a murder. He went all the way across the island to help Michael. So they don't know the whole story about that? I would have thought Hurley would have told everyone. Charlie confesses. Good boy. There's enough not communicating going on. Somebody close their eyes, please. 9 days ago. So we're caught up to the beginning of the season. And there he is retrieving the diamonds. Didn't wash his hands. Bad boy. Sawyer wanted to find what Nikki was hiding. He had the diamonds. Sawyer's all righteous on one hand and duplicitous on the other.

Coda
12 hours ago.
Thanksgiving was 2 weeks ago. So it's mid-December.
It's how you look at things. Then Paolo lies through his teeth. Or he means it and he's hiding it because he doesn't want it to tear them apart.
Nikki demands a gun just like Kate did.
A-Team took em all. Wasn't he supposed to lay off the nicknames?
Who the hell are you? Hee.
That doesn't count as "yelling" too me.
Sawyer closes her eyes. Finally!
Shirtless Sawyer. For
Are you going to tell Jin? No. Why not? Cause then we'd have to dig another grave.
The diamonds are worthless here.
Hurley's eulogy.
And I really loved Expose. Hee. OK then, goodbye.
burying the diamonds with them. throwing diamonds over them, like throwing a handful of dirt.
8 hours ago.
Ah, the spider. If you introduce a spider in the first act... it had better go off in the third.
Paralysis. So they're not really dead. They were buried alive. IEEE!!!
So Nikki's a black widow. Almost literally.
That's why he didn't have any pants or shoes on.
You're only sorry because you got caught. Isn't that always the way?
So he did do it, to keep them together. If you found the diamonds, you wouldn't need me anymore.
And now we're back to the beginning of the episode.
Cool NikkiCam with the fall into the sand there.
So she said, "I'm paralyzed."
So are they going to come back as Zombies?

Yep. I hear Cerberus in the distance.And there's the males. Wonder if multiple bites kill, or if they're about to get Edgar Allen Poe'd. No multiple bites, so they should be alive. HOLY GOOD GODDARN!!! Good catch. I completely missed it the first time, but when I went back and paid better attention to the scene you can clearly hear the mechanical noise that always heralds Smokey's arrival. Damn, I missed that!

More fun things to know and share, courtesy of lost.cubit.net: On the slate that ends Corvette's/Nikki's Exposé death scene towards the beginning of the show, the name of the director is Stephen Williams; Stephen Williams also happens to be the guy who directed this very episode. Back in "Flashes Before Your Eyes," freeze frames of the soccer game Desmond watched provided an easter egg bonanza: the sideboards on the soccer field included advertisements for Apollo candy bars, The Hanso Foundation, Oceanic Airlines, a radio station on 103.5 (103+5=108), Buddies Diapers, Gannon car rentals (the brochure seen both in Sawyer's hand during Locke's vision and in Jessica's hand on Heroes), Mr. Cluck's Chicken Shack... and Exposé. Dude!

This was a lot like this season's "The Other 48 Days."
It was also like Rosencrantz and Guildenstern,
A bit of Romeo and Juliet with the being NotDead, and being buried together, etc.
It was also like Marcie in Out of Sight, Out of Mind, in the sense being part of the group (high school, the Losties) but not being part of "our" group and therefore having a very different perspective. "Have a nice summer" and "who the hell are you?"
Nikki is like a cross between Kate and Shannon.
Nikki and Paolo were crooks, like Sawyer.
Charlie and the bathroom where he hid the drugs in season 1, and Paolo hiding the diamonds in the bathroom.
The stones that Adam and Eve had in the bag and the bag of diamonds.
Thinking the water bottle might be poisoned and Sun poisoning Jin's water bottle in the first season.

Very nice job at finding the parallels, Liz. The obvious parallel with Adam and Eve had me scratching my head. I forgot about the bag of stones, tho. This episode made me want to watch Season 1 over again.

I finally watched this ep on the abc website. My observations: FIRST: Sawyer pretty. Sawyer very pretty. . I liked watching Sawyer dig. All rippling and everything. Did you look at him? He was sweating. I'm imagining having sex with him again. Sigh. And did I mention: ? SECOND: Did you see how Vincent KNEW Paolo and Nikki were alive and he tried to tell them all, by uncovering the bodies? They really need to listen to that doggie! He knows all, and he's the only truly, 100% good character.

One way or another, Vincent is the man dog! The dog to watch.

Part I [snip] diamonds hidden inside the babuska dolls. Like the heroin inside the Virgin Marys.[snip] Good catch! nice paralleling, nice twist on perspective. etah to those who enjoyed the episode. My reaction when I heard it was to be a Nikki and Paolo centric ep was "ugh, why bother" but it certainly wasn't at all what I expected. leftylady
