LOST Recap

You want to know how busy I’ve been . . . I just watched last week’s episode this afternoon. After 2 days of missing it though I decided to just push it to Thursday anyway so I could have a bunch of momentum going into tonight’s episode. Plus when you read half the spoilers, you’re not missing much. So this week’s recap will cover both last week and this week.

As a random side note, you really may want to check out this theory if you’re a nerd and enjoy complicated time travel theories.

Ben said he used to have dreams too. So creepy.

And OMG what the hell was Richard Alpert doing there?

Locke telling Hugo that “the Dharma Initiative were the people making all of that ranch dressing that he loves so much” was the funniest non-Sawyer line ever given on LOST.

So the Dharma Initiative was killed off by Ben 12 years ago.

What’s up with Locke drawing smoke that kills people?

Which of these things belong to you? Does that mean that Locke was a reincarnation of Jacob? Or can see the future? And Alpert wanted to if Locke knew which was his in the future?

Alpert was expecting him to pick something else . . . perhaps the Book of Laws . . . which might have to do with the Others code, the one they branded Juliet because of. But maybe Locke was right and picked the knife because that was his in the future. He chose a different path.

Kimmey must have a different protocol from Widmore. And if Widmore knows Ben’s next move, then it’s because there are predetermined rules. Or roles. That’s why Widmore knows where Ben is going. Because either A) either Widmore used to be in Ben’s position. Or B) Widmore and Ben are playing by the same rules. And I’m betting they’re on their way to the temple. But it’s tied into the time travel thing that Ben has used before I think . . . according to this screengrab.

What was Kimmey putting on or strapping into?

What was the guy with Locke in the hospital doing? If he’s with Widmore . . . then were Widmore and Jacob fighting for whose side John would be on?

Did Ben really mean it when he said his time was over? And Locke’s was beginning? If so . . . that’s awesome!

And how in God’s green earth is Christian speaking on behalf of Jacob?

THIS WEEK:

I have no commentary. None at all. It was just insanely good. And I have absolutely no idea how they do this every single week. It’s great writing and great acting and great timing and great storytelling. It’s ridiculous that they are able to sustain what they have for such a long period of time. Absolutely ridiculous.
