Spartanburg Moms

A gathering place for moms in Upstate South Carolina

Well, I REALLY liked this episode! Its hard to feel sorry for Ben, but he really made a good case for himself this week. I loved his character and the parrallels in the X world when it came to Ben... "Sounds like YOU should be the principal. If you don't like the way the other guy is leading, maybe you should be the leader, I'd follow you"...so says X-Locke. Great. Perfect. I loved that Miles took Nikki and Paolo's diamonds! haha...the whole Nikki and Paolo situation is such a laugh. I'm glad they brought it back up. What do you think Flocke is going to do to/with Ben since he didnt rendevous at the Hydra station like he was supposed to? When I saw Jack and Hurley walking back up to the beach like old times, I looked at Tyler and said "Do you think the end of the show will be everyone back on the beach, just like in the beginning of the of show?" It was just very nostalgic for me...you know, seasons prior when Jack or Sawyer or whomever would spend the episode on some personal mission out in the jungle and then at the end of the epi, everything slows down and they come sauntering back up the beach, heads hanging, but glad to see everyone again.

 

And did I miss something? Where was Sawyer this week? I thought he was with Flocke? What am I forgetting?

 

And does Jacob touching you mean immortality? If so, then we've got a lot of immortals on the island now. And actually, I guess it CAN'T mean that because he touched Sayid and he DID die, although he was "brought back to life"...Oh wait, maybe you just can't kill YOURSELF is what Richard was saying.  I can not WAIT for RIchards episode. He is supposed to have one this year. Was he a slave on the Black Rock? Is that why Flocke said to him "nice to see you out of those chains"...literal chains? At the time, I thought he meant figurative chains, constraints Jacob had put him in.

 

All in all, I was very pleased with the epi this week. I still dont feel like we're getting answers though. Hopefully we will by MAY!

 

Everyone else's thoughts on this week?

I loved this episode as well. It was very moving to see Ilana tell Ben "I'll have you." Of course he went with her. No one had been that nice to him! I mean, his father treated him like crap, widmore did, the Others did even though he was their leader. He's never felt wanted. Speaking of his dad, I found it ironic he was giving his dad oxygen in the flash sideways. When on the island, he took that from him to kill him. Also his dad was wishing they had stayed on the island thinking things would be better.....you'd be dead, dad! So did Ben and his dad leave the island on that sub before it was blown up or whatever? How? Ben was in pretty critical condition. Guess they did.

I think Sawyer and Jin are hanging out together. We didn't see them last week either with Flocke.

I also loved the end part with the hugging on the beach to that same wonderful LOST music. Very nostalgic! What's up with Widmore? He must be the bad one coming to the island that Jacob mentioned. I don't understand at all who is going to be on what side and which is the good one?

Jack seems to have a lot of faith now.....obviously with the dynamite example with Richard. Seems like he is the best candidate to replace Jacob. Old Locke would be proud of Jack now.
I liked this episode too...
I think Ben is one of the most complex characters on the show. He's a great actor. When the sub showed up, I was like, "THIS IS IT- ACTION!!!". I am curious now about which one, Jin or Sun, is the candidate. I want more answers as well- come on people!!!
