The gang is all here! Jack and Sun and Hurley and Lapidus (hi, Lapidus!). Although, Locke doesn’t seem to care that much about anyone other than Jack. What is Sun, chopped TORO? (Racist.) Naturally, Lapidus takes it in stride, because Lapidus knows that outside of Margaritaville, people do not understand how important he is. Anyway, Locke tells Jack that they have some catching up to do, and Jack is like, “OK, let’s catch up.” So they go into the jungle to Catch Up Corner, where all the teens used to drive their canoes to play catch-me-up in the dark. (Huh?) Right away, Locke is just like, “So as you know, I am a smoke monster,” and Jack is like, “Right, now, just out of curiosity, did you used to take on the shape of my dead father?” And Locke is like, “Oh, totally, that was totally me.” And the writers in the Lost writing room were like, “Cross one of the mysteries off the mystery board, boys.” Fake Locke keeps talking about this ridiculous airplane escape plan, “We can all just get on an airplane and go home,” which is not real and he needs to relax with that nonsense because we knew four weeks ago that it was never going to happen. Then he explains that he took Locke’s form because Locke was a sucker, or whatever, which only kind of makes sense, because he’s also like, “it didn’t hurt that you put his body in a coffin in the cargo hold of a magical airplane that transported you to the 1970s but brought him here. That did NOT hurt.” Also if he was already taking on the forms of dead people, namely Jack’s dad, what is so special about taking on the form of this dead person? Haha, just kidding, I know the rules: NO MORE QUESTIONS. NO TIME LEFT!
Meanwhile, Claire followed them into the jungle because Jack is her brother? You know how brothers and sisters are, always following each other into the jungle. If you don’t have a brother or a sister you couldn’t possibly understand. It also helps to be a crazy person with a hairbone baby. Although, Claire does seem to have taken a shower. Looking good Claire!
She says something about how Jack is with Locke now, because you are with Locke as soon as you let him talk to you. Fair enough. He does have a certain charm! OK, so Jack is with Locke now. Good for him. He needs SOMEONE to tell him what to do, because he is a useless pile of five-o-clock shadow.
The next morning, Zoe shows up at the camp, and everyone is like “Guns!” and Zoe is like “Walkie-Talkie!” She explains that Locke has something of theirs that they want back, and he has until nightfall (NIGHTFALL!) to return what he has, or else they are going to blow him up. Ugh, really? I mean, again, this just goes back to the whole Escape on a Plane thing. I don’t know how many times I have to say this, but Locke/Man in Black is an ageless paranormal shapeshifting smoke monster inhabiting the form of a dead man. He is not going to just get on a plane and leave the island, and he isn’t going to get blown up in some mortar attack. Whatever, Zoe. Locke smashes her Walkie-Talkie and is like “so it begins.”
He sends Sayid to go shoot Desmond in the face, and he sends Sawyer to take his boat and rendezvous on the other island. Sawyer is like, “Why would you split up the group?” and Locke is like, “The bigger the group, the slower it moves,” and I’m like, “Sure, but why would you split up the group?” and Sawyer is like, “Got it.” I mean, the bigger the group the slower it moves, fair enough, but Sawyer and Kate hardly seem to be the ones slowing it down considering you have Temple Children carrying their Temple Toys, and also Claire, whose hair slows everything down. Sawyer tells Jack to get Sun and Hurley and Lapidus (oh, Lapidus) and meet him and Kate at a secret rendezvous and they are going to escape together on a submarine. Does no one on this island have a single realistic idea about what is even going on here? Submarines. C’mon son.
“We’re both useless, so let’s team up and really accomplish nothing.”
Sayid goes to shoot Desmond in the face, and it turns out that those ancient explorers who dug that well by hand because they were looking for answers, definitely dug it by hand, and definitely gave up pretty quickly.
I don’t even understand why Desmond doesn’t just climb out of that well. “Give me a hand, brotha. Actually, brotha, I think I got this one, brotha.” Desmond asks Sayid why he is going to shoot him in the face, and Sayid is like “because I want to bring back a dead woman, I definitely have thought this through and know what I am doing, and this is a smart plan that is going to work.” And then he shoots Desmond. Bye Desmond! Just kidding, obviously he doesn’t shoot Desmond. Supposedly we are left this week wondering what happened to Desmond, but one thing we know for sure is that he is not shot in the face.
When Locke’s back is turned (and running off alone deep into the jungle) Jack grabs Sun and Hurley and Lapidus (Lapidus!) and heads off to meet Sawyer at the boat, which is a really nice boat that just happened to always be on the island tied to a very well-maintained dock?
But Claire sees them and when they are getting on the boat, Claire is like, “Gun!” and Kate is like “Wait!” Jack, meanwhile, seemed pretty ready to leave Claire behind? After all the work they put in this week to remind us that Jack and Claire are half-brother and half-sister, Jack was VERY QUICK to leave Claire behind. It was like:
Sawyer: Leave Claire behind.
Jack: OK.
But Kate doesn’t want to leave Claire behind, because that’s why she came back to the island in the first place. So she simultaneously talks Claire into putting her gun away AND talks Sawyer into not leaving Claire behind. What can’t Kate do? “I am a murderer, a professional clown, a tracker-hunter, and a hostage negotiator.” This guy knows what she’s talking about:
Out on the boat, Jack gets thoughtful again.
Sawyer confronts him, and Jack explains that he doesn’t feel right leaving the island (relax, you guys, seriously, YOU’RE NOT LEAVING DON’T WORRY!) because he feels like there is a reason they are on this island. And if that thing (Locke) wants them to leave, maybe he’s afraid of what happens if they stay. WHOA. That is a good point! Jack has been reading the message boards 4 sure. Jack, what’s your handle? just kidding, I know what it is. Jack_Useless_69. Sawyer is like, “get off my boat.” Hahaha. They are literally in the middle of the ocean. Get off his boat, Jack! You heard the man! Jack apologizes for killing Juliette real quick, because life is all abou–TIMING! Then he gets off the boat.
Bye Jack! Look out for the Smoke Sharks!
MEANWHILE, back in Bizarro LA, WORLDS BEEN HAD COLLIDING!
Locke and Ben are traveling in an ambulance to the hospital because of the whole Desmond straight smashing Locke to bits with his car thing. On the gurney being rushed to the emergency room, Sun is also there, on a gurney of her own, belly full of bullets, and sees Locke, and is like “it’s him!” Whuuut?! How does she know? I guess when you bump your head against a tree on the island, you open a portral into the multi-verse. Did you know that the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland is actually just a tree, and scientists throw Korean women’s faces into the tree at the speed of light? FACT.
Sawyer takes Kate in for booking, and they play a classic game of Kate and Mouse. Sawyer is like, “you don’t look like a murderer,” and Kate is like, “smirk I do.”
Ugh, that smirk. “You have a face for jail,” that’s what Kate’s agent said. Kate tells Sawyer that she thinks the reason he didn’t arrest her in the elevator at the airport when he totally saw she was wearing handcuffs and running was because he didn’t want anyone to know that he was in Australia. Meh. I think the reason he didn’t arrest you in the elevator at the airport when he saw you were wearing handcuffs and running is because we didn’t know he was a cop yet and he didn’t want to give away any SPOILERS. Sawyer’s secret trip to Australia to look for the man who ruined his childhood is a real non-starter. It’s just a boring secret! A much more interesting secret is why Kate and Sawyer are wearing the exact same outfit.
They’ll never tellllllll.
Cop Miles comes in and is like “We have obviously been put in charge of the Sun/Jin/Sayid case as well, because this is Bizarro LA, so we are the only two police officers there are.” They go to Sayid’s brother’s house, where Sayid is busy packing a suitcase on the living room coffee table (normal).
Sayid tries to escape, but he gets caught because Miles and Sawyer were playing a classic game of Good Cop Hose Cop.
Yoops!
Desmond “runs into” Claire in the lobby of a building and offers to help her with her adoption by introducing her to his lawyer…who just happens to work in that building? THERE ARE NO COINCIDENCES! Also, Desmond’s lawyer is Ilana, of course.
She tells Claire that she has been looking for her. And then Jack shows up. With his son.
Weirdly, no one FEELS IT. As we know, you only FEEL IT when you are near death or near kissing, but there is no FEELING IT during the reading of wills in law office conference rooms. Not sure where Desmond’s going with this one! In any case, Jack has to cut the meeting short because he just got a call from the hospital. Good meeting, guys! Very informative. Jack heads back to the hospital with his son, because remember how he has a son? He walks by Sun and Jin’s room, where it turns out the baby is healthy and bullet-free. Oh good. Then Jack walks into surgery and surprise, it is Locke that he is surgerying upon. “I know this guy,” Jack says. You don’t know anything, Jack.
Back on the island, Jack washes on shore right as Locke and his friends get to the beach. Locke is like “nice day for a swim,” because his desperate, ages-old desire to get off the island no matter how many lives it costs has not stripped him of his wry sense of humor. Over on the other island, Sawyer and his friends show up on their beach and are stopped by Zoe and some other Widmore people. Oh, Sun and Jin are reunited, so, that’s nice.
Also, Sun can speak English again? Huh? What? Lapidus doesn’t care. “Looks like someone got their voice back,” he says. YOU CAN’T FAZE THIS GUY!
Then Zoe is like “Really?” into a Walkie-Talkie, and then she’s like “Are you sure?” She makes everyone get on their knees and tells Sawyer the deal is off (haha, oh no! Not Sawyer’s ridiculous deal!) and asks the Walkie-Talkie if they have a sight on Locke. Back on Locke Beach, KABOOOOOOM.
Everyone looks pretty exploded. Jack’s ears are ringing. Oh guess who is completely unharmed by the explosion. That’s right, the MAGICAL 1,000-YEAR-OLD SMOKE MONSTER IN A DEAD MAN’S BODY. It’s so weird that the explosion didn’t hurt him. He must have been just outside the blast radius. Locke grabs Jack and carries him into the jungle. He tells him not to worry, that it is going to be OK, because Jack is with him now. He lost Sawyer, Sun, Hurley, Kate, Claire, and Lapidus (Lapidus is The One) but he doesn’t seem to mind that much. Considering how happy he was to see Jack at the start of the episode, has it been about Jack all along? But of course, Jack is the one that Jacob made the biggest deal about at the lighthouse, and seemed to know his every move already anyway. Is this all part of Jacob’s plan, or all part of the Man in Black’s plan? ALSO, does this mean Jack died in the explosion and Locke just brought him back? Or is just like that part in Speed when Sandra Bullock tells Keanu Reeves that she read an article about how couples who are brought together during moments of incredible stress rarely last right before they make out on the airplane tarmac while lying stomach to stomach on the detached floor panel of the now-destroyed bus? I guess we will have to wait until next week, and if Jack and Locke are straight GOING AT IT in the opening scene, we will know what is what.

I seriously have no complaints about last night’s episode. It was kind of fun and moved along at a quick pace, even though over all I think this is a contrived lame show that is going nowhere, this episode at least held my attention this time.
The one episode I really enjoyed was the one from a few years ago about the Desmond origin story, where we find out that his failure to mash the button in the underground base thing caused the plane to crash. I thought that whole back story episode was really cool, creepy, mysterious and weird and I felt like I was finally getting the show. Then it got even better when it ended with the shocking revelation that Desmond’s girlfriend (Penny?) had been searching for him the whole time in a boat with some guys. That ending literally gave me creepy drama chills and I thought “Okay I get this show now.” Unfortunately none of the other episodes were as good.
Hey, did any of you think, last night when Sayid was talking to Desmond in the well, that he should have busted out some Norm Macdonald at the Bob Sagit roast action? “Hey, Desmond, your friends wish you well …. Yeah they wish you were thrown DOWN a well! (…long pause…) Your friends … wish you were MURDERED … in a WELL!”
Well played winwood.
You’re like our own Lost, Winwood: As soon as we think we understand you, you switch it up.
Hmmm, this is weird, but you know, even though I dont care about the upvotes and the downvotes, I think it’s worth noting that this comment of mine at the top has 13 upvotes, which is the most positively endorsed comment on the LOST post. Looks like the tables have turned? “You live long enough, everything happens.” – Al Hirschfeld
you had me at “Norm”
Agreed, my upvote was for the Saget roast reference.
Wait a second, that’s not Steve Winwood! I’ts Winwood’s genetically modified alter ego Stefan Gagner Du Bois!
Karl Lagerfeld? Is that you?
Nah, Failwood just switched it up because he can’t handle the Monsters and the Jezlez shit-asses at the same time.
That said, I don’t watch Lost but I appreciate the recap.
I hate Jack! Kate is the Worst!
am I doing it right?
Hahahahah!
I could have sworn this was the same guy:
Time travel Easter eggs for the super fans (of time travel)!
Didnt Jack seeing Locke make him Feel it? I was all:
Also, Illana being Illana chili on the Island means she’s dead, so the sole reality has her consciousness merging in LA, or something.
Wasn’t she feeling it when she looked at Claire? Just a thought.
She was feeling that she was dead.
Half baked Related:
And I enjoyed the Fact that on 4-20, it was a SMOKEY centric episode.
(Also, Why all the downvotes? Let’s calm down Winwood)
I dont do the downvote or upvote thing. I dont understand why people care about that stuff
You’re just Chock Full of Surprises and False Sentiments, aren’t you.
Relax, DS3M, it’s not like Steve’s AnAuPatriot, or something. I fully believe Winwood was being completely sincere!
On of my favorite parts about the episode was when Jack was with his son in the hospital and he was getting ready to perform emergency spinal surgery and he asks his son if he’s cool to just hang out at the hospital? WTF? “Don’t worry son, this is only going to take about 45 minutes -WAIT HIS DURAL SAC IS OBLITERATED.” I’m fairly certain that spinal surgery takes like 8 hours?? I work in a hospital and fyi it is one of the most boring places in the world unless you love shitty cafeteria food and overpriced ceramic figurines. Then I guess maybe it is an ok place to hang about but for like an hour, tops.
sarahoninternet is right: LOST is not realistic.

DS, I’m not saying you need to love Winwood but give him some space. It seems like anything he says you take as a direct insult and an attempt at some seriously annoying trolling. He made a joke that was funny and totally not disruptive to the videogum atmosphere and you’re all over him. I don’t think people are downvoting you and upvoting him cos they love Winwood and hate you in this “feud”- I think he’s just being legit fun while your being a little abrasive. Sorry for the harsh words, you know I don’t have anything against you DS, I just think Winwood deserves a chance.
yikes
the season’s gotten to the point where it’s pointless to even call out “BEST EP OF THE SEASON!” every week because it’s on point so goddamn much.
except that I was all “THE APHASIA WILL MAKE SENSE, DON’T WORRY GUYS” a couple weeks ago and they toootally proved me wrong by making its resolution(?) totally lame. are we to believe that Sun and Jin are finally happy and everything is especially okay because they can both speak english to each other now? really? and that’s the language they decide to revert to in perhaps the most powerful emotional moment of their lives? the one Sun learned three years ago, the one Jin learned like three days ago?
score +1 for the ammuricans.
whatevs. great episode though. great tv show, lol.
p.s., totally waiting for someone to realize “oh you’re not a candidate” and go ahead and shoot Lapidus in the face. OR IS HE?!?!?!?!?!111
p.s.s. totally wanted Jack to be taking his son to the adoption agency. I can get down with the whole “what if everybody’s life was different” of the alt-verse, but the “what if we invented an entire new person” is kinda caraaayzee.
I know! I was so worried that Sawyer and gang were going to ditch Lapidus during their getaway.
I’m very nervous for Frank Lapidus. I cringed like, 40 TIMES this episode. Every shot he was in a expected a fire arrow or a spear or a gunshot or a surprised look on his face then falling down Naomi-style with a knife in his back.
He’s an enormously likable character, and there’s not a single bearing as to whether he’s protected as a “candidate” or not. And Bram asking if he could be a candidate means NOTHING to me. I need hard evidence (TWSS).
Just a thought, maybe Jack really had no idea what he was talking about when he said Sun had Aphasia and really what was going on was she hit her head and somehow linked with the Sideways timeline (in which she speaks NO ENGLISH AT ALL). There was actually another hint at that in this episode where she seemed to realize in the Sideways that Locke was the smoke monster. Its probably like in the episode “The Constant” where Desmond needed to speak with Penny so that his head didn’t explode. Once Sun had her constant she was returned to normal. I think that makes sense, right guys?
Jin: I love you and we will never be apart again
Sun: So you speak English now? Neat.
Yeah I kept waiting for something to happen where Sun would desperately need to alert everyone but she could only yell in Korean!! How inconvenient!
Well I was certain Sun and Jin were both going to be brain-fried as they ran towards each other across the Sonar Fence, just at the moment Zoe gave the order for the fence to be turned off. After all the time it took them to shut down that electromagnetic room that obliterated that other guy two weeks ago, they turn the fence off in like .3 seconds? (I mean, don’t get me wrong, I love that Jin and Sun are finally back together, but I did think that would be an amazing WTF moment in Lost history).
I’m was right there with you. I kept seeing that nerd from Desmondo’s episode doing the whole “oh, it was this all along” *FLIP* with the fence switch. I’m glad it didn’t happen, but it would have been kabuki-esque for them to be killed immediately after finally reuniting.
yeah, i was totally half-standing on my couch being like “no no no no no no no”
but then it was ok!
Did anyone else think that Smirk Kate looked a lot like early 90′s “Black Velvet”-era Alannah Myles?
Just me? Okay fine.
We came so close to tying up the two biggest ‘loose ends’ on this show last night.
…Maybe next week.
i stood up and yelled “SHOOT HER” repeatedly during the whole Claire’s Hair Points a Gun at Kate scene. I’m confident i’m not alone on this.
“Looks like we’re almost rid of Kate,” was my exact thought. I’m not sure why I thought that though, I kind of like her – she adds nothing to the show, for some reason I just like her. All of my senseless ire is reserved for Jack.
Hey if Sawyer and Miles are the only cops in LA, they surely know Jack, who works in its only hospital.
Yeah! I expected Claire to relax and lower the gun, when “accidentally”… OH NO! Kate gets shot!
I mean I love Kate as much as the next Monster, so I really, REALLY thought it was going to happen.
ext: sandy beach just inside the treeline. daytime. Locke and Jack are sitting at a tree, looking out onto the beach.
Locke Monster: Jack, remember when I said that we needed to catch up..? (he moves slightly closer to Jack, but not so close as to let Jack know what’s up, because Locke’s sly like that)
Jack: Yeah..? (he closes his eyes and does the “I’m about to cry but not really, bro” face he makes)
LM: Well, that’s not all we needed to catch up on. (He places his hand on Jack’s thigh)
J: ..?
LM: Don’t be afraid. You don’t have to be afraid any more. (he moves his hand slowly upwards, towards Jack’s waistline)
J: Well, fear’s sort of an odd thing. When I was in residency my first solo procedure was a spinal surgery on a sixteen year old kid, a girl. And at the end, after thirteen hours, I was closing her up and I, I accidentally ripped her dural sac, shredded the base of the spine where all the nerves come together, membrane as thin as tissue. And so it ripped open and the nerves just spilled out of her like angel hair pasta, spinal fluid flowing out of her and I… and the terror was just so crazy. So real. And I knew I had to deal with it. So I just made a choice. I’d let the fear in, let it take over, let it do its thing, but only for five seconds, that’s all I was going to give it. So I started to count: one, two, three, four, five. Then it was gone. I went back to work, sewed her up and she was fine.
LM: Well, this time, it’s going to be like that, but instead of spinal surgery, I’m going to insert this coconut inside of you. But out of love. Shhhhhh…

Re: The last picture of the post
“Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee”-Jack
No wonder Jack feels weird about leaving the island. He is having TOO MUCH FUN!
Almost as much fun as Locke is in the sideways world!
Plus this!
OH MAN I didn’t watch last night and I really wanted to see Sun & Jin reunited IRL not in screencaps. I knew I shouldn’t have read this till I watched the episode first.
But after the lonnnnnng weekend I can’t not look at anything Gabe posts.
Sun & Jin can not be reunited IRL (in real life) because they are fictional characters. This tv show is not real life, “backstagebethy”
Oh man, that explains SO MUCH.
When this happened I said “fucking finally.” It didn’t quite live up to the build up they put us through over the last three years.
wtf what? you disagree? I don’t get the voting system here
“Fuckin Asshole Internet Trolls, how do they work?”
Yeah so I watched last night, and that’s pretty much it…they just see each other? On the beach? No drama? OK.
It was really strange that they both didn’t make a very big deal out of the reunion and that Sun’s loss of English for a few episodes seems to have served absolutely no purpose. Can anyone tell me one thing the loss of English helped move along?
Without Sun losing her ability to speak English, we wouldn’t have been privy to another worthless “Do you trust me” bullcrap worthless statement from Jack. Which was really important because it gave me another reason to want to punch Jack in the face.
This ep had my favorite Sawyerism of all Sawyerisms.
Did anyone notice Hurley’s face after the Sun/ Jin reunion. It was worth a full six seasons of Lost. It was like staring god in the eye and him winking back at you….or basically the opposite of the above picture.
(source: http://twitter.com/nedroid)
Fuckin’ internets, how do they work?
Seriously though, go here to soak up some Lost-related LOLs — http://twitpic.com/photos/nedroid
I liked the sonic fence one. I thought the exact same thing was gonna happen. I like Sun and Jin, but that would’ve been so awesome. And then it could’ve cut to Lapidus – arc-light dancing over his face – saying, “Theirs was a love that burned too bright for this world…”
I don’t like the name Sonic Fence because Doctor Who taught me Sonic Things FIX everything.
…Uh oh….I think I crossed the Nerd Streams.
I seriously think they are going to end the LOST series with Dr. Who showing up in his Tardis and saying, “Come on, you guys, get in!” and the Daleks will be chasing them shooting laser beams and shouting in robot voice “ELIMINATE!”
I’d be okay with that.
I saw this comment this afternoon and I successfully resisted. But it’s been weighing on me, eating at me, feeding on the back of my brain…
You know I’ve always loved you, Steve Winwood, even before it was cool. But it’s exterminate.
Exterminate!
EXTERMINATE! Goddammit! How could you get that wrong?!? What kind of animatronic monster are you?
Hi, Frank!
http://twitpic.com/1ffyy2
I don’t have a brother OR a sister! No wonder I never understood all of those jungle excursions all the brothers and sisters were always doing!
Be glad – it gets expensive and tedious to have to follow your sibling to the damn rainforest all the time.
I have a younger sister by three years. One time back in middle school my dad picked us up instead of our mom. My sister and I got in a bickering match as soon as we got in the car and my dad wasn’t having it so he kicked us both right back out of the car and told us to walk home (which was about a mile and a half). My sister followed me the whole way. SO annoying.
Your Dad is a great man.
With a name like Jack Savage, well, he’d better be.
If only Jack could find someway to make use of his insane ability to swim ridiculously long distances fully clothed, Timberlanded, and backpacked.
With his shoes on! That’s ridiculous. Tie your shoes to your back pack idiot!
Ugh, it has ALWAYS bothered me that the people on the island kept their shoes on all the time. If i had been on that plane when it crashed it would have gone like this: “I’m alive? Yes. I can move all my limbs? Check. I’m on a tropical island? Shoes off forever.”
And what the hell is in the backpack anyway? Some comic books and his walkman?
And like sixteen cans of Monster.
Everyone could ride on Jack’s back off the island. But they have no bearing, guess it’ll have to be the flying sub.
Seeing as I’ve missed many episodes (years!) of Lost and am currently trying to catch up, I don’t read these recaps. HOWEVER I do look at (read?) the pictures and giggle quietly to myself.

I wish I could nuclear bomb myself into a bizarro world where Lost never ended so I could Always Be Reading these recaps.
I asked my girlfriend if we could get an old grizzled dog and name it Capt. Lapidus and she said yes, of course.
I’m sure there is a reason why the other others don’t just blow up the smoke monster plane, like they blew Jack. But why can’t they just get a hose to trip the plane before it takes off?
christrash: “like they blew Jack”
Ha ha ha ha
That seriously was a nice boat. I was like, “Why the heck aren’t they just sailing the nice boat home? It has canned food and everything.”
Also, how come Mocke can’t leave the island, but he can take a boat to a different island? And doesn’t Man In Blocke seem evil than Man In Black OG? The first guy seemed nice enough, if not a little annoyed. Fake Locke straight up wants to smokestab someone in the face.
So many questions!!! So little time!!!!!!
Hey, y’alls, that really nice boat was Libby’s boat that she gave to Desmond that he sailed around the world for a while before crashing on the island where Kelvin tried to steal it and then Desmond shot him and then Desmond gave it to the Losties and Sun, Jin, and Sayid tried to to use it to sneak attack the Others (and when they saw the four-toed statue for the 1st time) but then Ben learned about it so he sent the Others to come and steal it and Sun shot Colleen but the Others got the boat anyway, and then later when the Oceanic 6 were off the island and Ben ran into Sayid, he told him he used it to sail to Fiji and charter a plane to the US (which was a lie because he actually used a wheel).
So yeah, we’ve seen that really nice boat before.
PS: I know it’s the same boat because we got a glimpse at the back of it and it said “The Elizabeth.”
always be super sleuthing
Lapidus likes to watch.
Oh ok, here is another issue I have, regarding the timeline. How is it possible that Locke getting hit by a car and Sun getting shot happened at the same time?? Haven’t Jin and Sun only been in LA a couple of days? As far as I can tell, its maybe 2 days. They only spent one night in the hotel before Keamy and co. came to get their watches and monies. Maybe I can assume they spent one night in customs getting questioned about the money but I doubt very much that airport security has the authority to detain somebody that long? But Locke had time to come back from Australia, get fired from the box company, go to the temp agency to have an awkward interaction with Rose, tear up Jack’s business card, and get a very fulfilling job as a substitute teacher at the local high school? That had to take at least a week…
Time works different in Pandor… Sideways LA.
This is a very good point. Well Lost writers…?
Don’t you have one of many extracurricular activities to be at or something?
Seriously tho, good point.
Lol.
This falls under my many duties as president and creator of the Lost Appreciation Society.
Man I hope Jack understands the gravity of his choice to leave Sawyers alliance! He now must rely on Smocke’s vote, and without the immunity idol I think he may be in trouble. Looks like he will have to bet on the immunity and reward challenges from here on out.
I’m ready for some bodies to hit the floor!

oops. accidental downvote, sorry!
It’s okay. That video deserves all the downvotes.
that’s desmond’s boat that libby gave him. though. it should probably at least be dirty or something.
Pretty much my favorite episode so far… but can we talk about Smokey’s hand drawn map? Uh? “Ok Sawyer just go through this scribbled area, past these dots, and into the hatched blob I drew and there’s a boat!” If I knew how, I’d post the pic in my comment like seasoned Videogum commenters.
Doesn’t look so bad to me…
Ech.. here:

And how is NS/EW relevant on the island? Hello they can’t use compasses or tell where they are?
Anyway-love that tiny boat drawing! Adorable!!
So Sideways Sayid who hasn’t changed clothes in days and just arrived in LA from Australia is carrying a duffel bag and a big travel bag while running from the police. What the hell is in them bags?
“What in the world is in that bag, whatchu got in that bag?!” – Ludacris
The Lost promos after each episode are becoming increasingly baffling. The last one was about Willy Wonka. That was just creepy and mostly uncalled for. Then this week it’s all “He went insane from being in the jungle too long!” and flashing “THEHORRORTHEHORROR” and it’s like “Oh, okay, so Heart of Darkness now?” Seriously NONE of these ham-handed literary/filmic references are doing Lost any favors. I was okay with the blatant use of paperback book covers, because whatever, I like books. This is just getting out of hand.
By the way (I am 1000% sure I’m not going to do this right…):

Yep, just as expected.

UGH.
I am in agreement that the promos are cuh-cuh-cuh-crazy, but the WIlly Wonka song was at least applicable in the sense that Willy Wonka was looking for a candidate to take his place at the chocolate factory when he retires.
Yeah, well, when Jack asked the smoke monster why he used Locke’s body, he should have said “Because he looks the most like Marlon Brando in Apocalypse Now, and you know, allegory.”
Smokey needs Lapidus to fly the plane, of course.
As for how Lapidus will repair the plane and prepare a runway on a beach of the fine tropical sand, well, let’s hope he or Smokey served with the SeaBees at some point.
I unironically loved Hurley’s reaction to seeing Claire “Oh hey Claire! You look great!” which was his way of saying “I’m morbidly obese and one humid day of having the same hairstyle, but you look shitass crazy!”
NOT cool.
You’re my hero!
I hate this show. I hated it as soon as I let I talk to me for 114 episodes.
In honor of 4/20 all the Others were dressed like hippies and hanging out with a big fucking cloud of smoke
Bong Locke
Let’s all just agree that Vincent is the key to all this.
Seriously though, am I the only one who is more concerned about where Vincent is than anyone else on the island? A Vincent + Rose & Bernard reunion on the beach would have actually made me tear up.
where’s Richard now, anyway?
okay, so I got downvoted for this question. but really, I can’t remember what happened to him. Did he die? I don’t remember that happening.
Richard, Miles and Ben preferred to run off into the jungle like sissies instead of facing Smoke Monster Locke and his mad rapping skillz.
In all seriousness, whenever Ben and Richard are offscreen I’m like, “WHY AREN’T THEY ONSCREEN?! I MISS THEM! THEIR SCENES ARE AWESOME.”
I’m hoping this proves to be a fruitful paring for Miles, who’s done nothing this whole season except play games with leaves and palm fronds and rocks and shit. Maybe the company Miles is keeping will prove fruitful for his personal journey of ADVENTUUUUURE!
Or else I expect his next scene to look something like this:
I think if Ben, Richard, and Miles never came back but just had their own spinoff, I would watch every week for six seasons.
I think the new name for smoke monster Locke should be UnLocke. GET IT? You do. thoughts?
I sort of prefer Flocke, for Fake Locke.
I prefer the Lockeness Monster ( :
So now that Bizarro LA is fully entering ‘Crash’ territory, it’s just a matter of time before racism makes Kate fall down a flight of stairs, right? Right!?
Smokey couldn’t trick suddenly dumb Ben into killing Jacob as Useless’s father..how far ahead he was planning this I don’t know nor will I ever because Lost does not equal answers.
I’m probably missing something, but if Smoke Monster took Lockes looks, but Lockes body was in the casket still, then where’s Jack’s dads body? He never found it on the island right? His casket was empty. Also, if Smoke monster Locke can’t leave the island then how did Jack see his dad at the hospital or wherever he was in L.A. that one creepy time?
Team Chesty!
All the show is doing these days is convincing me more each week that I would give all the dollars in the world for the Sawyer&Miles buddy cop show.
My favorite part:
Ben is riding in the ambulance with Locke? And the paramedic says, “Do you know this man?”
Nah, dude, I’m just along for the ride… can you let me off at Office Depot? I’m running low on history stuff.
WTF?
i can’t believe i’m about to do this, especially so long after the fact. . .desmond didn’t shoot kelvin. he accidentally bashed his head open on a rock. apologies.
