LOST is amazing.

Widmore bought that book at the auction to find out more about the island, I'm guessing? The only other owner/reader of the book being the Hanso organisation....

[Cupid Stunt]

This episode was great, i felt Lost was really going of course but now i'm reeled in again.

[lorcanjc]

I haven't a clue what is happening

[James Parkin]

maybe they have all got off the island but they are going through what desmond went through, and in order to not have an anurism they need to keep their "other" selves on the island together in order to provide their constant

Maybe, we know Jack wants to go back to the Island due to a flash from the future in a previous episode but i was thinking they all would like to go back to the Island because its a place where there old unhappy, criminal, confused, ect lifes, were "lost".

Anyone near the hatch would go through the same thing Desmond did if they tried to get off the island by that route.

Ben & Aaron must have come off the island by a different route.

Don't think that is it.

The six are going to make some kind of deal to get it off. Only Desmond is being shown as the one being exposed to the radiation.

he's most probably the person who funds the dharma organization and wants to get the island back from ben and co.

Sorry mate, Crappy had already mentioned it a few times in this thread and it's all over the net so I figured it wasn't much of a spoiler.

Did you notice that when Desmond had a flashback and went to tell Faraday about the formula , that Faraday put on an apron (X-ray) like the one Ben has on in the photograph that Faraday and co have?

Does that mean that Ben is also a scientist?

[VidaRed]

ben worked as a workman for dharma before the purge....god knows what he is ? sometimes he's a doctor as seen in sayid's flashforward and with all those passports and money, we are still to know more about ben.

[botond]

so Desmond is Bens constant? an Kate's son is really Aaron ?
brilliant two episodes

Desmond Ben's constant, wtf?

Desmond is Faradays constant

[gaffs]

I watched is on Sunday on Sky - wasn't that impressed.

I have been watching Lost since day 1 and always hoped they wouldn't go down the time travel route.

Will watch it again tonight to see if I can see what all the fuss is about.

[Scholesy]

They shouldnt base the whole thing on the time route, only on Desmond or else it would get too confusing.

[FranklyVulgar]

Alot of people threw in the towel after the 2nd series and i can understand that. But i'm a boring bastard with nothing better to do than watch shit like lost and heroes.

I think this series has been entertaining and well worth a watch, who gives a shit if its totally rediculous. It provides me with 40 mins of entertainment for a sunday hangover.

The Cast get to ask some of the questions lingering in there mind. May contain minor spoilers.

It's no shock to say that Season 4 ends with the Oceanic 6 getting off the island," Lost executive producer Damon Lindelof shares with TV Guide. "The real mystery is how, and what they have to sacrifice, and what happens to the people who didn't leave. You get all that this year." Sounds good, we'll take it. But what other intel are producers willing to spill? To find out, we turned to no, not viewers but to Lost cast members themselves for their own burning questions. Warning! The producers' answers could cause a major head rush, if not a full-on Desmond-style time jump.

Jorge Garcia (Hurley): "Is Ben in the coffin?"
Carlton Cuse: Come on, Jorge!
Damon Lindelof: Seriously! [To Cuse] He's just trying to make sure it's not him. It's process of elimination. The next question is, "Is it Michael?" [Laughs]
Cuse: Before the end of the year, you will know who's in the coffin.
Lindelof: And Jorge will definitely know before anyone else.

Yunjin Kim (Sun): "Is Aaron actually one of the Oceanic 6?"
Cuse: We're not officially saying yet. We want the audience to engage in an active debate about who the Oceanic 6 are.
Lindelof: Following [Sayid's] episode, we got several inquiries we weren't anticipating about, 'Is Ben a member of the Oceanic 6?' He could've assumed the identity of somebody on the plane [with] no surviving family members. Who the actual six are is very much in play through the end of the [March 13th] episode. We'll confirm or deny after that.

Josh Holloway (Sawyer): "Is it Jack's turn with Kate?"
Cuse: [Laughs] That doesn't sound very romantic, but I guess we get the underlying meaning. The Jack-Kate situation remains unresolved and probably will be for a while.
Lindelof: We will say we haven't seen the last of Sawyer and Kate this season. Not by a long shot.

Henry Ian Cusick (Desmond): "It's 2004 on the boat. What year is it in Penny's world? What year is it when the Oceanic 6 get home?"
Lindelof: What's fundamentally interesting about all the time-jumping is that we want it to make sense when people watch the show 10 years from now. We don't want it to seem dated. So it's not really about what year it is in the outside world, it's about how many years have elapsed between the time that we're watching on the island and the flash-forwards. That's one of the fun games the audience is playing: "Gee, Aaron looks like he's about 18 months old. What does that mean, and how old was he when they got off the island?"
Cuse: There are some growth issues when you go on or off the island. But I can't say more about that.
Lindelof: You've already said enough.

Evangeline Lilly (Kate): "Did Michael reach the mainland? Go home? Come back to rescue us?"
Cuse: The good news is that Evie will get all of her answers in [the March 20th] episode.
Lindelof: Well, most of them.
Cuse: Those questions form the basis for that episode. Evie should be somewhat happy.

Elizabeth Mitchell (Juliet): "Why did Juliet become such a badass? Who trained her — the Others?"
Cuse: I think there was probably some martial arts in New Otherton.
Lindelof: She probably went out shooting with Friendly back in the day, which is why she can handle a firearm so well. But the real inspiration for Juliet being a badass was Elizabeth herself. When she read for the part, she had this huge cast on her arm and was talking about her days of kickboxing....
Cuse: And then she beat Damon up.

Holloway: "Sawyer needs a freakin' haircut! Since I'm living with Hurley, can he cut my hair?"
Lindelof: [Laughs] That episode's a casualty of the strike.
Cuse: But yeah, Josh can have a haircut.
Lindelof: Josh might've forgotten, but this is a recurring request from him. He's like, 'My hair's getting long, can't Kate cut it?' So we did an episode [in Season 2] where Kate cuts his hair. I love how Josh chooses who's going to be his barber at any given time!

Cusick: "Did Jack's flash-forward in the third-season finale take place after the events of Sayid's most-recent episode?"
Cuse and Lindelof: Yes.

Naveen Andrews (Sayid): "Damon spoke once about going back into Sayid's childhood. It didn't sound like bulls--t at the time. Has he abandoned that?"
Lindelof: I love how he phrases it — "It didn't sound like bulls--t at the time" — [implying], "But it certainly seems like bulls--t now." [Laughs] It's certainly something we still want to do. It wouldn't necessarily be an entire flashback based in his childhood, but there may be significant things that happened when Sayid was a kid that we need to reveal.

[Man Utd Mrs]

YAY!
Well excited!

[malcolm31337]

Could this be any better?

Nice post Rahul

There are some growth issues when you go on or off the island. But I can't say more about that.

Growth issues?

Probably to do with the time you lose when leaving the island, and to help explain the incredible growth of Walt in just a few months

Day 67 - Saturday, November 27, 2004 - Walt leaves as a child

Day 93 - Thursday, December 23, 2004 - Walt appears in Lockes vision alot taller

Obviously the producers can't stop the kid growing, I liked what Locke said a few eps back 'I saw Walt, but taller'.

Amazing how short a time everything happens in LOST

TBF producers did come out and admit they lost the plot a bit in the middle due to the network pressure. S1 was class and deservedly got critical acclaim. They dropped the ball after that and recovered during the end of S3.

I didn't think about that, I suppose they had to find a way to cover that up.

[VidaRed]

i reckon todays episode wont live upto what they showed last week.

[Man Utd Mrs]

I don't think that I've been disappointed with any LOST episode throughout all the series so far..........last weeks was just extra good!

[crappycraperson]

That's because you are a fanboy ........errr fangirl.

This week's gonna be Juliet centric.

[Tibs]

I've changed the all important order around

Kate
Penny
Juliet

Can't wait for the next episode
