Busking.. isn't this where Desmond ran into him? Yup!! You have that sinking feeling too, eh? I am officially worried about everyone who is part of the shooting party.  **worries very very much for my woobie Sayid** He keeps having that look on his face in that ep. That "I know I'm gonna die" look. Totally and completely right. It's the harder choice, the more complicated and reality based choice. And one of the reasons Picard is my favorite captain.So many sweet moments. Man, we're gonna see a lot of people kick it, I'm afraid. |

I just hope they don't kill Sayid in the finale. I don't think they'll kill Charlie - maybe Desmond, or (sob!) Rose-or-Bernard. But maybe they'll kill Rousseau just as she's about to reunite with her daughter; that would be nasty. 
I think that Locke will be healed, and either kill or otherwise oust Ben as the leader of the Others - and take his place. Yes, I see Locke becoming the leader of the Others for the rest of the series, in conflict with Jack - Faith versus Reason.
Good episode tonight!
GAIL 
I like that theory on Locke! That would be very interesting!

"Here we go again." So, the shooters are Sayid, Bernard, and . . . Jin? **worries for all of them** He left the ring behind. And so did she.  [nitpick]Wouldn't a real cable be, like, anchored or buried or something? To make sure it wasn't pulled or twisted too badly by tides and so on? And thus you couldn't just pull it up and follow it along? Or heck, frankly it would just be too heavy.[/nitpick] Oh damn. His number one moment was just . . . meeting Claire. And they met cute. "First plane crash?" "How could you tell?" "I can always spot the newbies." And he's making the list for her? **melts** "My greatest hits." Desmond offers to go? "Maybe I keep seeing you die because I'm supposted to take your place?" Hmmmm. Actually, I can see that. He gets the flashes to see if they will move him to action to save another person. "I may be luckier than you." Well, who isn't?  But Charlie won't let him. He's gotta be the hero. "You and I know you're not supposed to take my place, brother." I know you're sad and preparing to die, but you really should have hyperventilated and overoxygenated yourself. To make sure you last long enough to reach the switch. Hmmmmm. Lights? Air in the area? I think it's not as dead as they've been saying. I wouldn't be shouting and lying about there, guy. Yep. People with guns, never a good sign. So - did they lie to Juliette or is she helping to set the Plain Folk up for the Others? |

Oh! He DID leave the ring behind for Aaron!!! that line's gotta be a fiberoptic cable. othersie he'd not be able to pick it up. And now we get to see the best night of Charlie's life. Huh. it's post-crash. It's seeing and fallling in love with Claire. "I can always spot the newbies" ;D Oh, it's a dead-letter to Claire. oh, god, I'm gonna lose it. Both of them being noble, fate-bound idiots. **nods** ;D Yup. Me too. Lights and still breathable air? Big old warning. I mean, I can see a deserted station having pockets of old stale air, but that? Dude! |

The lead blond with the gun was Tracy Middendorf: the woman Angel didn't save in the first episode of Angel. Wonder if she and Josh Holloway reminisced... Hee! It's always a good sign when Joss alumni band together. And from the same ep? Gold, baby! |

Both of them being noble, fate-bound idiots. well, hell, ONE of you dive in. Why do they ALWAYS beat them with oars to temporarily knock them out? Well, it's effective. "You aren't supposed to take my place, Brother." and he truly is a brother to him. Okay, I'm losing it. Moon pool. Laughing in triumph.. Well, you live until you get to the switch. And Dammit, I figured it might be manned. DAMMIT!! When I saw the lights all on... It is womanned! By all the women who escaped Benry's evil plans? **bounces** Oooooh, I hadn't thought of that possible explanation for them both being women!! Cool idea! |

Great Episode! I can't wait till next week Rose and Benard!!!!! Benard never say "nothing is going to happen to me." Kiss of death, Brother. Totally, dude!!! Oh yeah. And really, it's sort of natural to be worried that he hadn't made it to the switch. Me too. Since we didn't see him killed, and since we know the Island heals people, especially him . . . well, I just want to have at least a clue before we have to wait for next season. |

[/color][/quote] I think your idea about Locke is very intriguing. And it would be very plausible - heck, it's what Benry himself is worried about. |

Nadia!! That's Sayid's Nadia! ETA: The woman Charlie helped fend off a mugger, that is. I don't know you can remember such things. Don't get me wrong...you're absolutely right, and good on you. Apparently I'm just too dumb to retain all that is needed to truly understand this show. |

So I'm pretty hit and run on this forum and I don't play with theories, guess, etc. But I've been enjoying Lost this Spring far more than I have lately. So here are my observations (tongue in cheek - don't beat me up Jack fans. Monnie I'm looking at you. Hee!)
Now how did that happen? I've been calling for the death of the hobbit for weeks. Weeks mind you. And then when it seems like they really are going to FINALLY kill the hobbit, DM goes and gives a kickass performance that actually makes me like him a little. And I'm sitting there thinking this is good. I like this, I'm actually going to care a little when Charlie dies instead of dancing gleefully in my living room.
So of course he doesn't die. Damn. Come on Lost producers. Show a little bloodlust. Sometimes you have to just do it.
Hee! Jack is and always will be the world's most pompous ass. Behold my little minions. I am the leader. I make the decisions. I will blow up a tree. Watch, fear and love me in an angsty, forget about the Sawyer hottie way.
And dear sweet God - they did NOT have Jack telling Kate he loved her next week in the previews did they? Did they? I frakking HATE this storyline. I was pretty meh on the whole island love triangle when this started but now I want to tell Sawyer to just dump Kate on her scrawny ass.
Was there a big meeting somewhere up in showrunner cabal land where they determined that this year the bad boys who have shown redemption get the girl for like two seconds only to be dumped for boring, white bread boys? Come on, was there?
Case in point:
1. Sawyer =Bad boy. Redemptive acts, gets girl, gets laid. Girl decides she wants the other member of the triangle - the boring one. Jack.
2. Logan = Bad boy. Redemptive acts, gets girl, gets laid. Girl decides she wants the other member of the tirangle - the boring one. Puzt. (er . . what is his name anyway? I've sort of forgot. Hee!)
3. Callie (Grey's Anatomy have the genders reversed but it's the same story). =Bad girl (slept with Mark). Redemptive acts, gets boy (george), gets laid. Boy decides he wants the other member of the triangle - the annoying, never stops speechifying and acting like an ass one - Izzie.
Need I go on? I could throw in some Buffy/Spike/Riley but you get the picture. I realize there are only so many stories you can tell but you can do sexy couples who DON'T break up every second and still keep the viewer engaged. How I Met Your Mother had two season long couplings that were funny, hysterical, moving and great.
Ahem. Back to the show.
You left the ring in the crib? Where the baby could swallow it and choke to death?
Hey it's Wolfram and Hart's Bernard and Rose. Hey guys. Where have you been all season? Wild monkey sex? Exploring the island? Hurley's Ping Poing Marathon?
And Charlie - I know you were trying to get rid of him but you hurt Hurley's feelings. Not an option. K?
Charlie whapping Desmond over the head with the oar was telegraphed a mile away. Still if he had let Desmond save his sorry hobbit ass one more time, I would have found a way to whap him over the head myself.
What is it - Hefner's Looking glass down below? Hee! Oh look Charlie. It's hotties with guns. It's the Playboy glass. (don't mind me, I'll stop giggling soon. Really I will. No really).
Still I was entertained and didn't feel sleepy so good show. Now if only Sayid had slapped Jack around. A little torture maybe? Cause I really, really hate Jack (sorry Jack fans).

Apparently I'm just too dumb to retain all that is needed to truly understand this show. Actually, I think it was more a matter of luck. Back when Nadia appeared in one of Locke's flashbacks I posted two pictures of her to show it really was her in both episodes—meaning not only did I spend a decent amount of time looking at her face back then, but I also see those images every time I page through that particular album in my Photobucket account. So I think it was mostly a matter of repetition that led to my recognizing her in this ep. |

Apparently I'm just too dumb to retain all that is needed to truly understand this show. I don't think Charlie's chance encounter with Nadia is actually necessary to understanding the show. It just shows us there's an obscure connection there and shows us how he thrives on being told he's special. It's a neat tidbit, tho. |

Jack is really getting on my last nerve. Somebody needs to take him down a peg or two.
You brought us all out here to blow up trees? Welcome to Monty Python Land. Number 33. The Larch. Kaboom!
Ha, Sayid did. Good speech, Sayid. About bloody time, too.
For a few minutes there, I was putting KaTe song titles to the action... After two, I decided that was sufficient. I shall spare you my findings, but they were very clever.
I am very, very, very tired of the "somebody's going to die" theme (by which I mean the incidental music). We get it, really we do.
Bernard is doomed.
Don't get me wrong, but could we just please kill the wabbit the hobbit Charlie all ready? I don't hate Charlie - he's weak, but he has a good heart and he does care about Claire and Aaron, but you can't keep dropping hints and portents forever. Eventually there has to be a payoff.
The Looking Glass hatch is inhabited, by Amazons, apparently. I wonder if those are the women he was in bed with, in that hotel in Finland. Everything else is fundamentally interconnected, so why not?
I am paying no attention to the teaser for next week. They lie.
I want the French Chick and Daughter Show - it'd be a great spinoff, maybe the next Gilmore Girls.
