Eastern Canada... It played at 8 p.m. here (that's 7 p.m. US Eastern Zone)...

 

[UTtoyfan]

That's awesome man!

Stupid ABC in America, hahaha!
putting it on at 10/9 central.

Oh well, less than 30 minutes for the rest of us North Americans in the US(in the eastern and central time zones at least)

 

[barryo]

the whole doctor scene as they were about to take off from the boat freaked me a little. as well as the two in the cabin.........

 

[Agent0028]

"Destiny is a fickle ^^^^^." Love that line.

Good news, everyone!

The 2009 and 2010 editions of the hit drama will be 17 hours each -- not 16 as previously planned.

Well that confirms there is definitely something strange going on with time on that island!!!

I was most interested that "they" have been interested in John since his birth!!!

...and Christian and Claire!!! She has to be dead! Doesn't she???

Good news, everyone!

Well that accounts for the 2 hrs they've missed this season because of the strike.

That's what I thought. Maybe she really was killed in the explosion a few weeks back.

 

[tomandshell]

I don't know if she was killed in the explosion or if she succumbed to her injuries while trekking through the jungle, but I strongly suspect that she has died. That would also explain why Locke isn't supposed to mention that he saw her--assuming that Sawyer stumbles upon her corpse or something like that and the others find out that she is dead, Jacob doesn't want Locke talking about his visit with a dead girl.

When Jack finds out that they were siblings, then I can imagine him feeling pretty guilty that he made the phone call that brought her killers to the island. (Although I imagine they would have found it sooner or later since Naomi got there without Jack's help.)

My wife suggested several weeks ago that the island can move. I was pretty skeptical and shook my head, because as we all know, islands can't move. So my wife was smiling after that last line.

And she said "Dalai Lama" about half a second before I did when Alpert was showing the items to young John.

 

[Shropt]

The episode last night was definately strange. It seemed very "transitional" if that's a word.

I love seeing Alpert back!! I can not wait to see who he is.

So what's up with young Locke? Did he pick the correct item then intentionally pick the wrong one? Did the vial of sand represent the island?

Anyone else notice the comic was talking about a hidden land? Nice one.

Too bad Ben was a such a sad panda in this episode. I like seeing him as a badass.

Alpert is one of the hostiles from the island, or one of the immortals.

I think that maybe the island wanted Locke all along, but locke wasn't ready. When the black guy (don't remember his name) told John about the walkabout, he knew that John would end up on the island.

Did you see the expression on dead claire's face when she was in the cabin, just WEIRD

 

[Darthrazz]

I thought the vial of sand was his ashes!

don't count Ben out just yet..............he's a diabolical S.O.B.

 

[GrueSam]

Yes- I noticed that. She actually kinda creeped me out!

 

[Agent0028]

Yeah she was acting oddly. But I also thought she looked really hot.

 

[Agent23]

Solid episode last night.

And next week looks to be kick ass.

I guess we are gonna see the 6 get off the island next week huh?

 

[Darklord Dave]

We're getting further and further away from the "it's all scientifically plausible" so I'll put this out there - Locke's dead - he's been dead since the crash. That's why he can walk. That's why he's the only one that "belongs" in the cabin with the other people.

 

[Entropy]

Ok, so the smoke monster can change shape. They confirmed Jack's dad as dead, so it figures that the Christian in the cabin was the smoke monster speaking on Jacob's behalf.

This leads me to believe that Claire is not dead. She couldn't be the smoke monster at the same time Christian was. Are the "ghosts", Charlie and Christian, that Hurley and Jack see off the island really ghosts or just the smoke monster again? The only legit ghost I think we've seen was the one Miles "busted" for the old lady.

It's implied that the island made Jack sick as it did Ben. Why would the island/Jacob do this?

And why didn't Jacob reveal himself to Locke? Locke isn't ready to know this information yet. Because he is Locke from another time? or perhaps Alvar Hanso?

And the Dali Lama reincarnation choosing the objects thing makes me think even more that Locke will die. So Richard was looking for the reincarnation of whom in Locke? Jacob?

EVERYONE but those who are able to get off the island either died in the crash OR died while on the island (a la Claire who I think is dead from that explosion). I still go back to the time theory and that if those who stay behind on the island (Sawyer etc.) were to leave then their injuries would accelerate to normal speed and they'd die immediately.

It brings up the question of Walt... Why is he so messed up and what's plaguing/haunting him?

Next week hopefully will add more fuel to the fire.
