I'd like to know where Faraday has ran off too. I liked him.
I'm still pissed at him for fucking up the end of Saving Private Ryan with his shitty sideplot. |

Next ep has some stuff about him I think. |

I think that, as we have seen in the very first scene of this season, he is closely watching the ongoing construction of the Orchid station. Oh, and Samwise wrote: I do hope we get a flashback to the distant past and the building of the temple at some point. Well, not really about the temple, but... (small spoiler about the Statue, not the identity, of course) |

The smoke monster taking the form of things is pretty crazy, but it adds to a lot of good drama like it did in the last episode. I do hope they go into detail what the deal is with the monster, because it was THE first question everyone had about the island. Not resolving that effectively would be shitty in my book.

Didn't see that reveal coming. Loved it. Also, "Ewoks suck, dude."

Ewoks Suck should have been the title, that was funny. Still, they are getting really heavy-handed with "Daddy Issue Island" here. Is there a single character who had a decent father who stuck around and/or didn't abuse them?

Being a die hard Star Wars fan, that was my favorite line of last night's show too. But a close second was Miles "That Douche is my dad." Cracked me up. |
If you don't want to hear the answer -- don't ask the question.

Well, we don't actually know what happened to Dr Candle. I do know that the only time we've ever seen him smile was when he was spending time with his son near the end of this episode. In all other cases he's been a cranky bastard. |

So basically everyone so far who came on the chopper was born on the Island, or grew up there. So the odds of Daniel being a child on the island are pretty good. Odds of him being born as an Other even better! :D Maybe he is making friends with recovering bullet wound Ben right now.

His mother Eloise appears to have been an Other, if she is (as I suspect) the blonde chick named "Elly" who had him at gunpoint while he was supposed to be defusing the bomb. |

Also, I hope everyone noticed that the guy in the van who kidnapped Miles and tried to stop him from going to the island is the same guy that was with the chick on the other plane (the one that asked "what lies in the shadow of the statue"). |

I was just thinking to myself, this show doesn't have enough factions warring over the island. ENTER: Shadow of the Statue folks.

Thought this was interesting. I don't follow lost that closely so not sure if this is a spoiler or not.

Yeah, I'm thinking that too. Introducing a new faction would seem a bit weird. Strange code-phrases (see "What did one snowman say to the other.") smell of Dharma as well. I'm really curious to see what the big twist will be at the end of this season. |

"The Incident" would be the event that led to the installation of the "release valve", if I'm not mistaken.  |

The incident is the reason they needed "the button" if I'm remembering things correctly. My guess is the incident is caused by those in the 70s switching back to present time. Maybe something that Locke does? He seems to know exactly what the hell is going on and how he's going to fix it. |

I'm wondering how Faraday went back in time? Did I miss something there?

He came with everyone else, when they were skipping around randomly.

He came back with Sawyer and the others when they were first teleported back in time, and hooked up with the Dharma folk. He just sort of disappeared though, and they haven't said where he went. Apparently he went to Ann Arbor.

He was described as some dude out of Ann Arbor by a Dharma guy. It seemed like they didn't know him by name. If he was back there earlier with them, how did he get off the Island to Ann Arbor if he didn't meet with the Dharma folks and take their sub? |

If memory serves the guy said that the sub was there with "people from Ann Arbor" or "scientists from Ann Arbor" so he was referring to them collectively. I think it is clear that Faraday became part of Dharma just like the others and has become part of the secret team, part of which included going back to Ann Arbor to talk to the Dharma initiators.

Yeah, rewatched this one last night. Dr Chang told Miles that the sub was bringing scientists from Ann Arbor.
I don't think Jughead will have anything to do with The Swan, though I do think we'll hear about it again -- either in the final episode this season or sometime next season.
I'm starting to wonder if maybe the final episode might be named deceptively... I mean I assume "The Incident" is the one at The Swan, but perhaps that's misdirection...

Motherfucks fooled me with a clip show. Ruined my Wednesday night plans. They need to legally start labeling clip shows in BOLD BRIGHT LETTERS on the previous week's previews.

Viewership is tanking lately. They had 13.5M viewers at the beginning of this season, and they were down to as few as 8.5M at episode 12. They have fallen way outside of the Top 10 shows on broadcast TV as well. American Idol and Dancing with the Stars had more viewers in one week than LOST has had total in it's last 6 episodes.
In short, the show is getting murdered because people are tired of their bullshit. Tossing a clip show out there is putting holes in an already sinking ship. I can't believe they pulled that nonsense. I mean Wheel of Fortune puts up better numbers than 8.5M. That's no joke, either.
