This is it: our last episode of Lost for 2009. After it's all said and done, we'll be looking at a NINE-month wait for the final season to begin, which is filling me with sadness and anxiety already...

I'm watching the Lost recap, and I have to say they're making me all kinds of nervous for the future of Juliet and Sawyer... Damon Lindelof: "And although Sawyer says "Juliet, I'm in love with you," Juliet also acknowledges that this is the beginning of the end for them."

I think that the way they did this clip show, with Michael Emerson narrating and interjections of Lindelhof and Cruse being interviewed, works a lot better than the way they did it before with ABC announcer guy and clips reedited. Lindelhof and Cruse are clarifying a lot of the open questions that we've had (I guess they didn't think that they were unclear? ). I'm not sure whether to consider those the answers, though; usually, interviews aren't considered canon, but they may be addressing them now because they don't intend on addressing these questions again in the show itself.

Stupid Sawyer. Maybe it's a mislead.

No, someone who's clotho, atropos, and lachesis all at once
Sailing ship, is that the Black Rock?
One of these two is Jacob.

And that's not a hippo statue, Emerson! that's a crocodile! Sobek!

Ancient Egypt? Or a museum? Or maybe just the Indiana Jones set underneath the island.
Is this guy one of The Others? Or a member of the Black Rock?
Ooh, that's a cool cooking technique. Hot rock. Never seen it done before.
Hey, It's That Guy!
OK, these are The Others. There's the Black Rock.
They come, fight, they destroy, they corrupt. It always ends the same. It only ends once. Anything that happens before that, is just progress.
Any idea how much I want to kill you? Is that a pick up line? These two look like they're 2 seconds away from making out.
He's going to find a loophole. In The Rules?
Aha! This is Jacob!!!!!!
I feel like this scene was an homage to some other piece of fiction, but I can't quite place it.
The FOUR TOED FOOT STATUE!!!!!!

AND IT IS RICHARD PAYING FOR HER INDISCRETION!
Nope, IT'S JACOB WHICH REQUIRES EVEN MORE CAPITALS!!!
And cut back to the sub of doom.
and Kate tells Sawyer the problem. Oddly, he does not see it as a problem.
"Jack wants to blow up the island, good for Jack"
And we cut back to Jack blowing up the island.
And Sayid is gonna turn it from a fusion bomb into a plain ol' fission bomb.. much easier to carry. Though I think they are underestimating the sizes of a fifties fission bomb.
Cut to Radzinskii going queegie.
"If Edison was only worried about the consequences we'd all be sitting in the dark" great line , if it weren't total bullshit. Lightbulbs rarely blow up islands.
And we cut back to the future with the Travel Music.
"a title I've discovered is incredibly temporary"
I'm wildly amused by snarky, put-out Ben.
"I'm this way because of Jacob"
"Deal with the rest of the passengers from the Ajira flight" so he knows they've got a big crate of guns and a knocked-silly pilot?
And cut to the big crate of guns and the knocked-silly pilot.
And he's playing possum? yep.
"Only the ones we likes"
So they gonna show him what's in the box?
and we aren't gonna see what's in the box. Bastards. Was there more than guns?

Ah, little criminal Kate. Oooooh!! And old-school Jacob was interested in her! I forgot that they always sedate the sub riders. Heh! "Jack is on his way to blow up a hydrogen bomb." "Why would he do that?" Good question, Sawyer baby. Good question. Sayid! Sexy damp smart Sayid. **goes to happy place** Quick! Everybody strip down!! Ahem. OK, back to the plot and stuff. They're gonna do some blowin' up or whatever? Blue jumpsuit scientist Radzinski guy is really an asshole in every way, isn't he? Back to the future! Jacob is charge, John is the leader - "a title I've discovered is incredibly temporary". (How I love love love surly pouty bitter Benry. ) Oh twisty twisty Locke. A different story for each person? You're a fine new version of Ben. And what the hell do you mean by "deal with them"? Yeah, candidate for what? "So, you smack all your friends in the face with a rifle, shove them in a boat and kidnap them?" "Only the ones we like." ;D Oooh! The box! What's in the box!! What is it, Frank!!

Corn!
Kate's toy plane! Is this young Kate?
Adventures in Shoplifting.
New Kids on the Block. *Snorfle* Don't worry, kid, that lunch box won't have any value in a year or so.
Yep, Kate. Or Katie.
Jacob saved Kate. Hmm.
On the sub.
The sedatives. Standard procedure then, not just for new recruits.
Kate fills Sawyer and Juliet on Operation Blow Up Jughead.
Sawyer is *still* pissy about being rescued. *Sigh*
In the tunnels.
Writing details about how to blow up the bomb in your journal showed great foresight, Daniel. I was actually sort of wondering whether Jack was going to fuck this up, not being a physicist and all.
How does Sayid know about Faraday's time table?
Swan Construction site. Razinsky vs Dr. Chang.
Razinsky is a scientist. The Swan station is his baby. The bug up his ass appears to be hubris. Just what exactly is he hoping to discover that's on par with Edison and electricity?
Drill, baby, drill.
2007.
The Others are still marching two by two. Displaying a lovely assortment of neckerchiefs.
Locke is the leader, Jacob is in charge of the island.
Leadership on the island is incredibly temporary. The Leader answers to Jacob.
Ben admits(?) that he never met Jacob.
Richard and Locke about Locke's death. Richard has no explanation to Locke's resurrection.
Richard is immortal because of Jacob. And he suspects that Jacob also resurrected Locke.
The Shadow of the Four Toed Foot people have made it to the island. Illana thinks that Lapidus might be "important."
A candidate?
The SFTF people are "friends."
What's in the box? NOTHING! ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!! STUPID! YOU SO STUPID!! Or it's Summer Glau. Well, whichever it is will have wait until the commercials are over.

Funeral. Whose?
And who is this grouchy-looking little boy?
Jacob again?
HOLY SHIT. JACOB WAS THERE TO GIVE A PEN TO JAMES FORD!
Who is this figure in the life of James Ford as a boy? An uncle?
And none of them are all that good at keeping their promises, are they?
And Juliet makes a different choice for the two of them. Juliet wants it, so wisely, James decides it's unanimous. Smart man.
Well, that fixes the communication issue, doesn't it?
And ther sub heads for the surface and we cut back to the nefarious doin's at the cave of the bomb.
That's... a little smaller than most fifties fission bombs. Well, maybe it's a hammer-and-anvil type rather than a compression core.
And "don't give up on Locke"
And we cut back to Locke.
"When my dead daughter threatened to destroy me if I didn't do everything you said" and John is absolutely fucking loving this, isn't he?
"I'm not gonna kill Jacob, Ben. You are."
Pooooooor Benry!

Oooooh! Little boy is Sawyer? So, he was buddies with Kate when they were kidlets? And they were each of interest to Jacob? Curiouser and curiouser! Woot!! Go, Juliet!! Kick some Dharma ass! Both her and Kate wanting to get back to the island? Sawyer you do not stand a chance. One of the things I am really loving about Richard in these eps is how . . . he really doesn't know about so much of this. Unless he's much better about lying than everyone else . . . but I don't think so. Oooooh, Benry tells Locke about instructions from his dead daughter? Whoa! Heh! Benry is supposed to kill Jacob? Is he maybe the only one who can, because he can't see him? Isn't really a leader guy like Locke and so on? Is he the "loop-hole" that the guy in the past was looking for?
