I noticed that he looked like he could be related to Keamy! It was interesting that they spent so much time showing this character that could have just been an extra. They showed his face and he even had a line or two. I thought the same thing.

We all have to recognize what kind of a woman could p-whip a guy like Sawyer and give Juliet a lot of credit!!

I think Jack needs to watch a few of those “Final Destination” movies before embarking on this journey….

Flashforward was picked up early — that’s why the clips are shown.

The people who were his friends for 3 years were beating him to a pulp. This is a guy who values friendship a lot — AND Horace, Stuart and Phil (not so much a friend) were beating him up and started to beat up Juliet.

He wrote off Dharma at that point(Good Riddance) and yes, probably did forgot about Jin, Miles, and Hurley. I dont think there was any part of him that thought it would get to the point of him being tortured — He did what he could to get Juliet and himself out of there.

Im starting to believe that Locke created his own Myth (of Jacob) into the minds of the Others… Appearing again and again… in various times looking the same..
And its gonna end up (a future)Locke being Jacob all along..

Dont know…I cant believe that i am thinking restless upon this matters…
i mean….come ooooon…. The Creators have clearly messed with our heads..ha?

…I am awaiting for The Incident…… INawe

When Eloise tells Richard to give her and Charles a moment,
while the conversasion audio fades..
And ELoise told hime she would take the to the BOmb,
you can hear Charles saying to Eloise while touching her belly: “Not in your condition”…

Cause the John that led Ben and RA to the plane already lived that time so he can see himself, but Limping John wouldn’t be able to see John with Ben and RA cause he hasn’t lived that point in time yet which would be his future. Jacob, no matter how long he’s lived in that cabin is future John but now that john is resurrected maybe the “rules” changed.

Jerk? Lol? I wasnt even responding directly to you “David” lol The group of 20 something comments together is what I was responding to. As for your post in particular theres really nothing to say about it. I mean really, its just a very shallow two sentence opinion of which there is absolutely no substance to. [NOW Im being a jerk. just so ya know the difference] but it is your post and your entitled to it. Just try to keep the school yard name calling at the elementary school w/ your lil friends. k?

speaking of which – did I not see Widmore touch Eloise’s belly, in a very paternal way? Is baby Dan already on his way? When was he born, anyhow? I was trying to figure out his age…

My 20 year old TV is such a piece of crap I couldn’t tell if the CGI was bad or not. XD

I partially agree with Chris in FW. I love assertive female characters so don’t get me wrong, but Jules is pretty much leading Sawyer around by the balls. She constantly undermines him, and when she barks out an order he obeys without question.

But when he’s away from her, he’s his own person, sure of himself and in charge. In stark contrast to Juliet, Kate could tell him what to do til she was blue in the face, most of the time he’d come around and do it, but not before he was good and ready.

But going back to being totally selfish is weakening to his character IMO. He’s grown so much over the seasons, learning to care about others and how to lead and take care of those in his responsibility, now he’s throwing all that away just so he can live and be rich with his bossy common-law wife? As a fan of the character I’m not happy at all with this turn of events.

So, what exactly is Mittelos Labs? The Others are not FROM that island, so why are they there? ARe they recruited , much like Dharma?

I think they will all be safe in the temple. However, it’s the radiation from the bomb detonation that causes the preganancies to fail. I don’t think it is why they are quarantined in season 2 though as thats nearly 30 years later. I think that stems from the purge gases.

I heard a while back that we would see who the real mastermind behind the purge was…perhaps Locke?

I thought it was fine, as was the plane landing in Namaste, after all, it is JUST TV. Worked well for me.

I can see why she doesn’t want to change things, she’ll go to jail first of all and would have never met Jack or been a mother for 3 years.

I am still thinking about Claire’s dream from season one where Locke has he black eyes. What did that mean?

By: serene23

serene23 — Thu, 07 May 2009 22:26:32 +0000

I was thinking about that too.Either “the others” will turn on John once they see what he is up to…or he IS Jacob.

The submarine animation was awful. They should have cut it to just submerging and ripples.

The only time I remember it happening was Sayid demanded Juliet explain what was going on, and then Jack told him to take a hike.

I think they’ll stop over at the looking glass station under water. Sawyer will overpower the dharma goons, hop off the sub, and swim back to the island to stop old Jack from destroying things.

But why Australia? And did anything of note happen between her flight and capture?

I don’t understand why everyone sees Kate’s decision not to support blowing everyone up as a fickle one. It is all well and good for people like Jack and John to get an idea in their head and never deviate from the path-no matter how ill-advised it appears, but you can’t expect every character to do it. She went with them because Faraday said his mother could help them and, unlike Mr. & Mrs. La Fleur, Kate didn’t want to stay in the 70s. Claire isn’t there, as far as she knows. When she realized that said help involved blowing up the island- she decided it didn’t sound like a such good idea. That in itself isn’t fickle, that actually makes sense. Eloise believing a bomb will erase all her mistakes, that’s just crazy talk.

I agree that for someone who spent many years on the run, it is pathetic that Kate seems to get captured every other episode, but she did have a legitimate purpose for coming back. One she could not accomplish in 1977, so it made sense for her to leave with Daniel and try to do something about it.

If anything, it is now the La Fleurs who don’t really have a purpose, and haven’t for quite awhile- other than to buy Microsoft, bet on bowl winners, and settle down. Admirable goals, but hardly plot advancing. It’s why they suit each other- Sawyer- before he was lobotomized- was always about making himself comfortable, letting the others fret about getting off the island, which he didn’t really care about. Juliet, likewise, pretty much stuck with the status quo- until other people, like Jack, presented her with opportunities.

Sitting back and just playing along, playing the game, is what those two are good at, and I’m not saying it isn’t smart. But things would be boring if you didn’t have other characters who were more purpose driven-whether that purpose was to get off the island, or whatever quest Locke is one at the time. Actually doing something means that they are going to make mistakes, and can’t be right all the time, and there will be people who may not blindly follow you all the time, because they don’t always agree, but that is what makes it interesting. The people who think they can change things or make things better, they take the story somewhere else. I can’t be the only viewer who couldn’t wait for the story to get the hell out of Dharmaville, and I knew that wasn’t going to happen until Jack, or Kate, or Sayid came back.
