“The Life and Death of Jermey Bentham” Reactions

Wow, great episode like some predicted. Did not expect to see any island this week but it sure was good.

  • I expect this is the last we will see of Walt. I would totally write him off if he hadnt made that dream comment.
  • Tunisia is always the place you end up when you turn the FDW.
  • It looks like we have seen the end of Matthew Abbadon. I was expecting more of this character. Maybe it had something to do with Fringe.
  • I definitely want to think that Ben is definitely the bad person but I am still not sure. Maybe Ben and Charles are both bad. I did not see that one coming with Ben killing Locke.
  • How long ago was Whitmore exiled from the island?
  • Is the war between Ben and Flight 815 or Flight 815 vs 316.
  • I was pretty positive that 316 would crash on the island. I am just not sure what date it is. I thought it was present but not sure due to the previews. I unfortunately will not get to watch Lost for 3 weeks so its going to be a while till I find out.
  • Who else went off in the canoe with Frank? Why did he care about the flight list. Is he really an other?
  • What hatch were they in? Was that the other small island where they held Jack for a while?

Lost “316″ Reactions

One word describes this episode, “predictable.” except for the last 3 minutes. I was pretty positive that the 316 was the Ajeria airline flight they would have to fly. I even went to their website today to try to confirm the flight number on any flights leaving LA. They all said they were booked. It also can be linked to the Bible verse which relates totally with John coming back to the island. The other obvious thing was that they pretty much confirmed that Locke is going to take over as “Jacob” from Jack’s dad. Frank being the pilot was not surprising at all either. He was destined to be the pilot since he was supposed to be the original pilot on flight 815 and I saw he was going to be in this episode so I figured it was coming.

Some of the things that surprised me were:

  • the opening scene of the episode
  • that everyone was so easily on board to leave the island
  • that Desmond did not go; what was the point of Desmond going to talk to Faraday’s mom?
  • How they got on the island? I was expecting the plane to crash. Did they just get caught in a flash?
  • They have to be back in the 70s since the bus is still active. I read a theory about how the Lostees would be the new Others since time might have quit skipping. Obviously Jin is posing or is one. Are they stuck in time and that is why people like Richard do not seem to age?
  • The previews to next weeks episode. It looks like a Locke episode. Was Ben there when Locke hung himself? What a liar!

Things that I am wondering about:

  • Why is Sayid locked up? Is he taking Kate’s place?
  • What happened to Aaron?
  • Did Whitmore beat up on Ben? He obviously tried to kill Penny. I hope Desmond beat up on him. Everyone has predicting that she would die soon since they have already had their happy ending scene.
  • Who is the Arab fellow that was behind Jack in line at the counter at the airport? They focused on him too much.
  • Did all of them go back?
  • What did Ben do when he got up?

Lost “This Place Is Death” Reactions

This was a pretty good episode. Unlike past seasons, I really doubt there will be “bad” episodes since time is running out and there is a lot to explain.

  • It is pretty much confirmed that Elloise Hawkings is Farady’s mother.
  • We figured out that Charlotte was on the island but we do not know who her mother is and what she did. Plus why she was told never to  come back by Faraday. My assumption is Faraday told Charlotte not to come back when he was time traveling but I guess he does not realize his own string analogy where no one can change the future, except for Desmond apparently.
  • I assume we will see a Charlotte flashback through the eyes of Faraday. They just can’t kill off her character like that but she did reveal alot of info so maybe not.
  • I also think that Faraday and Charlotte are siblings. The pieces fit. Faraday said he loved her but really never made a move. That is because it was love for a sister.
  • The people still on the island seem to be suffering when the time shifts. They kept grabbing their heads. I don’t remember seeing this in the past episodes.
  • The reason for the shifts was that the FDW was “off its axis”
  • Locke was supposed to  move the island; not Ben. So basically it is Locke’s fault that everything is going to hell.
  • Is Locke going to be dead the rest of the show? I am starting to think so. Like I read in another blog, I think it is going to turn out that Locke is Jacob. I don’t think Jack’s dad is Jacob even though Locke called for Jacob and Christian appeared.
  • Is CFL crazy because of skipping Jin? I at first thought that maybe CFL was the crazy one while her crew just knew the truth so she killed them; which still might be the truth. I
  • Not sure what that hole is where the smoke monster went into. Obviously CFL’s crew made it out alive from there but not sure how. Is this the Temple? If so, this is where Ben told the Other’s to go because it was safe. I guess it is if there is monster out there to get them. That version of the smoke monster seemed to be more machinery like.
  • I saw the name of next weeks episode and it was a 3 digit number which makes me think it is the flight number of the Ajira airline flight that is going to take the group back to the island.
  • Did anyone think that Sun was going to steal Aaron when she make that creepy remark to her kid that she found a new friend for her?
  • What did Charlotte say right before she died?
  • Why did she speak Korean? Is her father Dr Chang?
  • Of the skipping stops, doesn’t that leave the survivors back in time or are they in present time now. We really don’t know but the well did disappear. For all we know, they are back in the present and everything is okay. Maybe Locke and Ben are wrong and the Survivors don’t need to go back. Maybe all that needed to be done was for Locke to be the leader (make the sacrifice) and turn the FDW to restore order.

Lost “Little Prince” Thoughts

Thought this episode was very predictable and sort of boring.

  • Jin is alive. I hope everyone knew this all along. He was on the edge of the boat when it blew up so he could have easily been blown off without dying. I did not expect him to be on Lost time though. I am guessing the boat was close enough to the island to get him in range to shift time. I immediately thought we would see Jin whenever they found the wreckage from CFL’s boat. I then saw the guy floating and it looked like Sayid so I was a little confused.
  • The episode guest list pretty much told you that young CFL (Rosseau) was going to be in this episode. I imagine time will skip again before we can find out why or if CFL killed her crew.
  • Ben was behind the blood check of Kate to see if she was Arron’s mother. I thought this all along since it was a good method to get Kate scared into coming to the island.
  • Ben’s lawyer also represents Oceanic. This is not just a coincidence.
  • Ajira Airlines made its first reference in Lost. This fictional company was used in Season 5 promotions.
  • It looks like they have almost all the Oceanic 6 rounded up. Is it possible that they could be back on the island midseason?
  • Miles definitely was on the island before. Everyone is assuming he was the baby born in the season premiere.
  • I assume Locke told Ben that Jin is alive. Not sure how he is going to prove it unless Locke is not really dead. It goes back to the spider theory back in either season 1 or 2 when the person was buried alive but was really in a coma from the spider bite.
  • Is Locke really going to get off the island by turning the FDW at the Orchid station? I do not think so.
  • Who were the people that had the canoes that were shooting at the Lostees? This was the biggest mystery of the episode.

Lost – Jughead instant reactions

For the first 50 minutes I was totally disappointed with this episode. We then find out that Widmore was on the island and it instantly makes it an awesome episode for me.  Here are the things I am pondering.

  • Why did that little blond firecracker act like she had seen Faraday before but it was never mentioned again?
  • Is that same soldier girl the same person Desmond visited that was working with Faraday who was sick (radiation poisoning)?
  • An episode without Kate or Jack? Has that happened before?
  • The whole thing with the compass, Locke, and Richard has some kind of weird timeline that just doesn’t make sense to me. The only thing I do know is Richard visits Locke 6 or 7 years after Locke gives him the compass to test to see if Locke was telling the truth.
  • I know there was talk in episodes a long time ago (Swan hatch era) in which there was a big lead deposit. Is the Swan Hatch the storage place of the H Bomb? Is that why they had to press the numbers in the old PC? Didn’t it look like the bomb was hanging over a hatch?
  • The present time of this episode had to be 7 or 8 years (at least) from when they got off the island. Penny said they Desmond was off the island 3 years while pregnant and their kid had to be 4 or 5. This seems to supplement my theory (along with everyone else) that the island and the real world operate on different times. There is no way they could go back to the island 10 years later.
  • Shout out to naming the kid Charlie.
  • Why was it such a big deal to go back to LA for Penny and Desmond?

Update 1:  The crazy army lady is Faraday’s mom along with the current day Mrs Hawking in LA. All the things were tied together between this episode and the enhanced previous episode (with added text … he named his rat after his mom?). We will find out that Mrs Hawking first name is Ellie.

Update 2: This comment is just crazy but it could be true “I think Charlie (Desmond’s baby) is actually Charles Widmore, and Des & Pen are Adam & Eve (from the cave in Season 1)! Charlie and Ellie are Daniel’s parents, so D&P are his grandparents…” I was wondering why Desmond didn’t tell Widmore that Penny just had a baby. Maybe it would mess up the whole space time continuum ala Back to the Future.
