LOST Recap

Yo. Yo. We’re back for your favorite time of the week.

So Jack & Kate did have a little fling before he went all psycho and demanded they go back. Nice to see, but I wondered how things went from naked shower scenes to pill popping, crazy beards. But it was definitely after the court date.

Kind of creepy with Miles knowing that Carl & Danielle had been murdered there. I’m guessing that he can see/hear the dead like we’ve previously seen. I wonder if this means that he will have some special ability to hear the voices that everyone else has trouble deciphering.

I really like how all of the characters have swung in the opposite direction. Sawyer is awesome now acting like a big brother, sweet, sensitive guy.

I wonder what there is to Rose & Bernard’s conversation about Jack offending the “gods” and that’s why he got sick. What has Jack been doing over the last couple of days that led him to the place? For him to receive the same “fate” that Ben received?

It looks like Jack & Juliet are done for. Whoo hoo! Although I feel more sorry for Juliet than any other character.

Charlie is in the third world/space. How does that work? What role do they play in the larger scheme? Who do they receive their “instructions” from? Who tells them what to say? It reminds me of Harry Potter’s fight with Voldemort where his and Voldemort’s wand get caught up together and all of the last victims of Voldemort’s wand come rushing back and Harry’s parents all surround him in the graveyard. That’s what this reminds me of. All of these people have come back from the past/dark/death to help and lead the Losties.

Or I wonder if it gets even more nerdy than that and all of the dead people are just existing on a different time plane. And since they know the future they go back into the past and warn the others in the present. Sort of like the fabric of time gets torn or warped ala Narnia or the Golden Compass.

Charlotte definitely understood Jin and Sun. And it was cool to see Jin foreshadow him getting Sun & daughter off the island.

And then Jack’s proposal scene with Kate. It couldn’t be any more obvious that he’s having to convince himself. But now at least we know why and how he started popping pills. And that heart to heart with Kate & Juliet was just too sweet.

Kate still doing stuff for Sawyer was a nice little spin. That’s obviously what drove Jack further off the deep end. The island really messed them up. I mean really messed them up. Everybody is carrying all kinds of baggage.

I can’t wait to see what happens after the show is finally over and I’m able to go back and watch everything sequentially.

I’ll put spoilers in the comments as they come in.
