What do you want to see?

So... like I said, no new episode this week.. Lame.

So here's this week's thread:

What do you want to see before the show ends?

Realistic? Jack saves the day.

UnRealistic? Walt gets some vengeance and he gets his dog back.

Alright... Erik, Montoya, maybe Sean... you're up.

Episode 13: The Last Recruit

Another great episode, really feels like we're charging into the finale.


Off Island:

So Sun recognizes Locke... cuz she's dying! Another flash. Be interesting to see what she says in future episodes.

Other possible flashes are being set up:

- Desmond is trying to get Claire together with Jack (and Ilana, but who cares about her blown up ass), but that flash trigger is interrupted by...

- Jack being called to perform surgery on Locke... which I sort of already predicted. This will have huge implications when Jack saves him. Just not sure what they'll be.


On Island:

- The Jack and Locke talk had some nice "revelations":

1. Smoke monster needs you to be dead before he can impersonate you.
2. He was Christian.

Not sure if I believe 1. don't believe 2.

- The Jack and Claire reunion was nice. But I've really been waiting for Jack to take a big brother type role. He did for a blink and then bailed on her again. Kind of disappointed me there.

- Although didn't Claire say Locke told her he was pretending to be Christian? Wouldn't that indicate to her that he led her away from the others and THAT'S how she got left on the island? Why would she be happy or even close to ok with that?

- Hey Cindy and the stupid kids are still around!!! I've given up on getting any answers on Other conversion or history their... so frankly I hope they were blown up in the same Widmore bombs that the rest of those neandrathal looking mother fuckers were.

- Great Desmond/Sayid scene. No way Desmond is dead. No way.

- Claire makes it anyway... to the boat. Pretty sad that they almost left her again.

- Jack "jumps ship". Good Juliet apology though (still thinking she'll be Sawyer's "flash").

- The Jin and Sun reunion was nice, but was anyone else kind of worried that those pylons were gonna fry em?

- Widmore duoble crosses Sawyer... but not really. Didn't Sawyer say he'd deliver Locke? Well he didn't. And why the fuck did Sawyer think just showing up would work anyway?

- Meanwhile... it's Jack and Locke.... DA DA DAAAAAAAA!!!!

Getting good!

No ep next week... boooooo

Ok, what did I miss? What did you think?

Prediction

Maybe I already covered this... but I'll go ahead anyway...

Desmond's crashing into Locke was an attempt to get him to flash over to the other world and see what Hurley, Desmond, Charlie, Libby and Faraday have already seen.

Not sure how this will play out... but this part will be good... Locke will show up in Jack's hospital and Jack SAVING Locke will awaken the real Locke in the Smoke Monster... a battle for the body type thing begins.

Jack saves the day.

Episode 12: Everybody Loves Hugo

Awesome episode. I loved it.

Off-Island:

So we continue the theme of true love, or at least some SERIOUS connection, a CONSTANT if you will... will trigger your memory of the "other" world. Hugo and Libby were more proof of that.

Also, seems pretty clear what Desmond decided he needed to do, and that is to trigger these memories from certain indivduals. Well... it seemed like his mission was clear... until he WIPED OUT LOCKE!!! Gotta have something to do with his on-island self... which is still pretty vague... but he would have a bone to pick with Locke, wouldn't he? That brings us to the Island storylines...

On-Island:

Locke takes fearless Desmond to another electro magnetic hotspot... then rumble dumps him. (SPOILER ALERT: Previews showed him alive, or I'd be outraged) Sort of saw that coming from a ways away. Surprised Desmond didn't... what with his future seeing powers... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

Meanwhile, on the other side of the island... Ilana Arzt'd herself. Seriously... good job Jacob body guards. I mean I guess Ilana served her purpose, but I really thought there would be more to her.

Anyway, ultimately Richard, Ben and Miles go for the ammo and explosives at the Dharma barracks (cuz Hurley blew up the Black Rock) to try and blow up the plane... but Hurley thinks they should go talk to Locke, cuz dead Michael told him so. Good to see Michael back and get a little more closure. (fingers still crossed for Walt).

Awesome stuff here with Jack and Hurley. Great scene. ALSO... the whispers EXPLAINED! The whispers are the trapped souls on the island. THERE'S YOUR ANSWERS!!!

Michael helps them find Locke's camp and the two parties converge with the stare down of Jack and Locke. Love it.

A couple of other funny notes:

- Anyone else hear Hugo mention his next charity event was for the Human Fund? George Costanza!!!

- Jack and Richard had some funny banter after Ilana blew herself up (seriously, what the fuck was she thinking throwing that shit around like that) but line of the night goes to Sawyer again: "You talk to wood now?"

- Nice Sam Levine cameo. Not a huge celeb... but Freaks and Geeks/Inglorious Basterds need to be celebrated.


That's what I got for now. Not sure why, but one of my favorites of the season.

What did I miss?

What did you think?

Good night... and good luck.

Episode 11: Happily Ever After

Here we gooooooooooo...

So Desmond is once again special and he seems to have figured SOMETHING out. Only he won't share it with us the viewers.

Faraday is on to it as well... somehow. So is Charlie... somehow.

And it appears that Eloise knows ALLLLLL about it. Seems happy about it too. Why not... her son is alive and well.

So you need true love to connect to the other world?

What does Desmond know? How'd he figure it out? Why'd he want to help Widmore but then suddenly go with Sayid (who saved Desmond... for some reason).

What does Desmond want to show the 815ers?

What is Widmore's plan? How can Desmond help? (looks like he survived another Magnetic blast or whatever, just ike he did when he turned the failsafe key).

I have no clue.

Classic Lost epsiode. We're ramping up, with hints at answers but nothing really.

My head's spinning.

Your thoughts?

The End.
