Lost season 6 with spoilers beware

I liked the bit where Miles and Ben were talking about living at the DHARMA complex.

"I lived there thirty years before you did. In other words, last week."
 
Also, I'm thinking that Hurley X is actually Hurley Prime, since he recognises Anna Lucia. Des has just brought him along.

Yeah, it seems that Hurley's consciousness has fully merged in dimension X. Libby was his "constant" and that is what triggered the merge. Now, Desmond has to get all the Losties together to make it happen to all of them. My guess.
 
Anyone notice how Jacob "blessed" the water for Jack?

He didn't get a cup of water and bless it... he basically blessed the stream and then dipped the cup in.

My bet is that Jack is not able to be the one for some reason, and someone else (Hurley) drinks the water and becomes the protector of the island.
 
With the way Jack was going all 'it's just coincidence not for a reason' on Locke, again, I wonder if it'll end with him being the one hold out who doesn't 'remember' and the only Losty who gets to keep both versions of himself going. That way they all get their better lives, and 'old Jack' does a job knowing his other life goes on.

I could live with that.

I also wonder what's up with all these 'alternate endings' they're talking about. I don't know that I can stay up for Kimmal...

Thanks for the info you guys on the wrap up starting at 7, not the real show. That'll make things easier around here. :)

Cause even when you put the kids to bed, if they aren't asleep they end up needing or wanting something and have a way of turning up all of a sudden like dead people on the Island.... :lol and usually at a very intense part.
 
That episode was much better than I expected. :)
Des apparently has Dimension X wired.
About Jack, though . . . I like the thought mentioned above that Jack X doesn't 'merge/cross' and has two selves to compensate for his choice. However, with 2.5 hours of airtime left I can't help but wait for the other shoe to fall and be confronted with a PSYCH! regarding who is the final successor.
 
My prediction: Tonight's last regular season episode will mostly just be to set up the finale. The story won't be moved along much.

Get Desmond out of the well; check in with Ben/Richard/Miles; see the Locke Dressed Monster acting mad; Kate is hurt but ok; we miss Sun and Jin. Ends with a plan that will be "our last chance to get off this island". Then into the finale... ;)

But again, it's Lost... so who knows!

I was SO right!


NOT! :lol



I really liked this episode and was glad that they moved things along. I think it's kind of funny how they so quickly dismiss these characters that we've watched for seasons now... Richard and Whidmore as examples. They both go out with any "fanfare" or death scenes. Just bang and they're dead and the story moves on.

I don't think Richard is dead. I really believe that we will be seeing him Sunday.

You were very right . . . just not complete in your prediction.

I. too, believe we have not seen the last of Richard.

That's why my daughter will be getting a little visit from the Ether Bunny that night. :)
 
I still think it's gonna be Hurley.

To me, there were two instances of foreshadowing in there around the fire. Jack asks how long he will have to protect the island and Jacob tells him "as long as you can" (which could be one episode). Hurley also says "Glad it's not me."

To me, both of those lines were written as foreshadowing and when you look back on them next Monday morning you'll say "Doh! How did I not see that coming?"

How they get there, I have no idea.

Also, I kinda feel like me might lose Sawyer... maybe Ben gets him & he dies saving Kate (since Sawyer doesn't save her from jail in the alt timeline). Possibly Jack dies to save the island. Just by pairing up the remaining cast you can see:

Jack v. Locke (for the whole enchilada)
Sawyer (good guy scammer) v. Ben (bad guy scammer)
Kate (damsel)
Hurley (replacement protector)
Desmond (aka the big question mark)

If I had to frame it: Ben gets a hold of Kate and is about to kill her but Sawyer rescues her & dies. Kate then kills Ben. Later Locke gets Kate, kills her. Jack kills Locke and possibly himself avenging Kate. Hurley is left to protect the island. Desmond... still don't know. Is he going to cross them all over to the orig. timeline?
 
I wouldn't want to see a Sawyer/Ben showdown, if only because there's not much of a relationship there. No real tension in their confrontation - especially when you can have Ben VS Locke/Smokey or Ben VS Jack.
 
True. But I gotta think that Ben gets at least one of them and he and Sawyer kind of mirror each other.

I totally forgot about Claire. Maybe SHE takes a shot at Kate...?
 
After all that Ben has done on the island my wifey was not happy with his beating he was receiving from Desmond outside the school. She said he needed to stop. I thought it was justified regardless if Desmond was doing it to snap him out of his Dimension X reality. Same holds true for Locke. Did Desmond hit him to knock him out of Dimension X reality or to truly kill him and set him free?

Again the PR phrase "All questions will be answered!" still doesn't hold true for me because most of the questions that Lost posed we kind of already knew the answers. The entire scene with Jacob and explaining was a dud because we kind of knew what was already going on. Jacob simply justified the answers.

The new question for me is "What is this light source at the center of the island?" Is it the Fountain of Youth? A power source for the entire island? The dimensional black hole in the JJ Abrahms "space-time-continuum" ribbon?

I'm leaning towards a natural phenomena of some kind of electromagnetic anti-matter wormhole or some such that will be a pseudo scientific explanation of why there is intelligent life on earth. It would just be part of the earth and not brought by anyone or anything and there may be more on other planets or moons.

That would fit with not-mom's claim as it being the source of life, death and rebirth.

The spiritual aspect of it could be explained by man's natural tendency to spirituality phenomena he doesn't understand and make up 'rules' that seem to work and people go along with until they learn more about how things actually work.

Which again goes back to the science vs. faith - some scientists don't accept the 'super natural' until there is a reproducible test result to prove it's actually there and can be manipulated - and the spiritual don't want tests to be done because it is sacrilegious.

So, I don't think there's anything to the chanting over wine or water and cup drinking, just human traditions like magic spells, but there is something to the belief aspect of having the confidence (matrix style maybe) to use this life source to do your bidding and work WITH it and it's natural properties - as opposed to abusing it.

Sort of like the difference between abusing animals by controlling them to do tricks for entertainment or training them to want to work with you in a way that is more natural to them because they've developed a relationship with you...

Smoky and the rest of the dead folks are caught in the light source because they aren't able to rest and 'let go'.

My big prediction is that Smoky is going to find himself in a Dorthy spot of always having the power to leave with him the entire time... only it wont' be a dream, it'll be simply passing on into the light instead of resisting it.

I'm probably way off, but that was fun. :lol
 
What the hell is up with Ben? Why the sudden change to being Smokey's buddy? Is he still planning something against Smokey? I figured him for a good guy after his little speech to Ilana, acknowledging the mistake he made in killing Jacob.

Richard ain't dead.. takes more than a little push to kill someone who's immortal. I have a feeling we may see him stick around to help Jackob after all this is done.

Oh, and what's up with that cut on Jack's neck? It was there on the plane at the beginning of the season, and now it's there again.. they're reminding us of it. I'm thinking it will have some significance to what's going to happen on the Island in the finale.. Jack's going to get hurt there.. stabbed or cut on the neck, and it's having an effect in both timelines.

He's still a good guy. I think he's making his play to get close to Smokey, then stab him in the back, sacrificing himself as a means of making amends for having betrayed Jacob and murdering John Locke.

That's what I'm thinking. I wonder if Island-World Jack's tenure as the caretaker of the island is going to be short-lived. My beef with last night's episode was that Jack was a little too casual in taking on the role, and it required no real sacrifice from him. My thinking from the beginning of the season was that Sideways Jack was going to be important in Jack making the decision. If the person who eventually accepted the role would have to give up whatever life they might have had in the SW world, Jack turning his back on the son he would have otherwise had in the SW world in order to do what has to be done on the Island world...that seemed very Abraham and Isaac to me, in fitting with the show's biblical themes. But that cut...yeah, makes me think that's a bit of slippage between worlds, like maybe Island Jack is going to have a fatal neck injury forcing SW Jack to step in, give up life in SW world with his son, and take up the role of island protector, leaving neck-wound Island-world Jack to die in his place in the SW world, held in his son's arms and surrounded by the SW Losties who will perhaps sense what he's given up to save them all.
