With the inclusion of the University of Georgia into the Lost lexicon tonight this show has officially become The Greatest Show Ever. For those of you who are blind Sawyer brought Hurley a sweatshirt with my beloved Georgia Bulldawg on it. Good stuff in this episode for those of you who can remember things from earlier seasons, if you can't....well at least you have me here to fill you in.- The mysterious runway that Frank was able to land the plane on, where did that come from? Ben had it constructed back in season 3! Remember, Sawyer and Kate we sent to move and chop up rocks to create a runway? The question is, how does Ben come to know that he has to built a runway so that the plane he'll eventually crash on lands relatively safe allowing him to survive?
- I couldn't understand the name that that woman said when Ceasar woke her up after the plane crash but knowing Lost I'm sure its fairly important.
- We finally get to meet the often mentioned but never seen Radzinsky. You'll remember him as Kelvin's former partner in the Swan hatch who Kelvin tells Desmond blew his own head off when the pressures of the Swan become too much for him. Back in 1977 he's alive, quite an asshole, and working on designing what will eventually become the Swan.
- Horace and Amy's child? None other than everyone's favorite fake Canadian Ethan Rom. Just as we suspected.
- There's some sort of connection between the whispers and the weird "animal" in the woods that happened right before Frank and Sun ran into Christian. Is it somehow part of how he manifests himself?
- Speaking of which, what was up with Othersville? It had trappings of 70s era Dharma but if my runway link from above is correct they're actually in present day 2009. Did crossing over from the Hydra island to the main island did they timeshift?
- Why's Phil so untrusting? Maybe I just don't like him because he plays an asshole on Mad Men...
- I really don't like how they're setting up Jack vs. Sawyer Part II. Can't they all just get along? And for the love of God don't bring Kate and Sawyer back together, lame!

I think she said Jarrah, looking for Sayid when she woke up. Is it just me or does Radzinsky bare a striking resemblance to the dude Hurley got the #'s from in the nuthouse? Did anyone else notice that when Sun was talking to Christian, in the background there was what appeared to be a blonde haired woman there? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQHYXon-RaI
ReplyDeleteI felt like for the most part this was another story filler episode. Not anything too exciting. But I really want to see some Jin/Sun reunion time soon!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm with Tara on this one, filler episode, lotta talk, but not much action.
ReplyDeleteA few thoughts:
Ben/Sun are definitely on the island in the modern timeframe. Otherville was trashed from the showdown with the comandos and looked appropriated destroyed. Remember that Ben released the security system during the fight, so that could explain the state of things there.
Radzinsky DID look like the guy in Season 1 who gave the numbers to Hurley. Anyone got screeengrabs?
I looked at the video that brian sent the link for. Hard to tell if that would be claire or not, it's a very quick shot to be sure.
