the "numbers" were on the vaccine bottles they used to give Claire her shots

Henry Gale was sent by the others to get a better "list" and to see how the losties are living, since Ethan didnt get a complete list (they talked about this list during Claire's flashback)

Gale is trying to cause inner turmoil between the losties by playing into Locke's emotional nature. Locke could be falling for it, or he could be just playing Gale since he is fairly smart and good at mind games

locke's beyond help

i mean he goes to ana lucia

you have to be messed up to want her help

3/2/2006 12:03:54 PM

nah, i think we learned from locke's kidney donation that he isnt as mentally strong as he believes.

3/2/2006 12:03:57 PM

this has been the worst episode of the season. i hate that bitch and her accent.

3/2/2006 12:04:46 PM

there was another episode we all hated

forgot what it was about

3/2/2006 12:25:59 PM

i liked the episode, but claire really is annoying. hopefully she'll stop talking so much now.

3/2/2006 12:26:53 PM

i just cant see locke not being smart enough to know what Gale is trying to do.

I am hoping Locke was just pissed that he realized Gale was up to something and is probably an other and wants him out of his hatch pronto

3/2/2006 12:51:45 PM

seriously

that is the oldest trick in the book of old ass tricks

3/2/2006 12:54:03 PM

the vaccine stuff looked identical to the stuff desmond injected himself with the first time we saw him down in the hatch

3/2/2006 1:45:48 PM

^^^ Locke's flashbacks have shown how easily manipulated he is.

^ Yeah, and Desmond took all of it when he left.

3/2/2006 2:17:51 PM

^ flashbacks yes

but Island Locke is nothing like that

and im pretty sure Island Locke is who we are dealing with

3/2/2006 2:18:23 PM

he's not island locke anymore that he's gone down to the hatch

sawyer got him to move the guns didn't he?

[Edited on March 2, 2006 at 2:20 PM. Reason : the hatch = civilized]

3/2/2006 2:19:34 PM

Speaking of which, why was Jack on button duty? I thought he told Locke in the last episode that he didn't want anything to do with that.

3/2/2006 2:43:03 PM

hatch != civilized

hatch = torture, secrecy, distrust, and mystery.

The hatch is the closest they've come to understanding the island, and thats definatley not civilized.

3/2/2006 3:06:14 PM

This isn't something that has anything to do with the plot (it's not a clue or anything)...

But is it just me, or does it seem like bad writing that they are stranded on an island with very little supplies, and there's Locke scraping an entire plate of food into the trash? Lets try and conserve the resources a little better there guy.

3/2/2006 3:29:47 PM

i think there's a point to that

like in their minds they are back in the real world where that type of behavior is normal, almost like in their heads they arent even stranded on an island

3/2/2006 3:32:26 PM

It could have just been an oversight by the director . . . they wanted Locke doing something in the scene and told him to do that without thinking.

3/2/2006 3:46:51 PM

not a new one next week

3/2/2006 4:30:04 PM

pretty sure there's not a new one for two or three weeks

but i'm too lazy to look it up

3/2/2006 4:39:27 PM

I need a copy of this past wednesday's epsiode. I watched it before my sister did and acidently erased it off of dvr. So I need to get a copy so that she can watch it. PM me if you still have it saved on DVR or if you have a copy. Thanks!

3/2/2006 5:48:12 PM

ABC needs to take a lesson from FOX and 24 on how to present a serial television series. Its one thing to have a a period of reruns during the season, but now its almost every other week is a repeat. Easy way to tell if its a repeat next week, if the preview doesnt start with "Next week..." but rather something like "Coming up...", its at least a week without a new episode.

3/2/2006 10:02:55 PM

maybe i expect too much, but i dont see much downtime in this show where the director is just like "ok do something to kill some time"


i still think thats there for a reason

[Edited on March 2, 2006 at 11:57 PM. Reason : and the next new ep isnt on til 3/22 ]

for them it's mentally civilized, at least for locke

Quote :

"like in their minds they are back in the real world where that type of behavior is normal, almost like in their heads they arent even stranded on an island"

locke now has a job on the island

he waits and presses a but evey hour and a half

its much more civilized (conditional) than waking up everyday asking yourself "hmm, how far am i going in the jungle today and what will i find??"

he no longer has to go out and look for stuff to do, its right in front of him

3/3/2006 8:17:13 AM

i was just glad Eko showed up again in this epi and that Charlie didnt!


Eko's badass and they should have told him about Henry sooner

3/3/2006 8:33:48 AM

Haha, I work as a software developer and some days it feels like all I do is push the button.

3/3/2006 9:13:07 AM

one of my favorite parts of this show, and what intially attracted me to it and kept me watching, were the flashbacks to their "pre-flight" lives and how that tied in with what was going on on the island

this episode had no "pre-flight" flashbacks and for some reason, it seemed like a different show, which kinda irked me a little bit

3/3/2006 11:57:52 AM

i had a love/hate for this episode


a lot of interesting things happened, like possibly seeing rousseau's daughter, finding the other hatch, eko talking to henry...but at the same time, not enough answers!!!

3/3/2006 12:05:01 PM

are there ever enough answers?

doubtful. until the show is over and done with most likely

3/3/2006 3:21:39 PM

ok, how bout not any answers really?


they love to tease!

3/3/2006 3:22:57 PM

the question(s) that were answered this episode:

-what happened to Claire while kidnapped


someone help me out here..

3/3/2006 3:36:18 PM

what happened to claire?

because they didn't really tell us

they just showed they took her to a hatch and injected her with some stuff

but we don't know what they really did to her...

Quote :

"this episode had no "pre-flight" flashbacks and for some reason, it seemed like a different show, which kinda irked me a little bit"

there was nothing more about pre-flight claire that we need to know

there's probably a lot of pre-flight stuff that isn't important

the only things important are the things there haven't explained

and so long as we keep caring about wanting to know those things, they're going to keep stringing us along

3/3/2006 4:42:12 PM

I just want to say that it still really bothers me that nobody is getting any tanner or thinner on the island. I'm not asking for a lot, but come on, by now, somebody should be a little tanner at least.

3/3/2006 7:05:50 PM

every chick has perfect hair, makeup, shaved legs....

3/3/2006 7:26:19 PM

its tv

you guys are douchebags

3/3/2006 7:26:56 PM

the sun isn't realy the sun

3/3/2006 7:42:07 PM

yeah, common, television world does not equal real world, unless we're talking about the REAL WORLD...ooooohhh crazy shit

back to the lecture at hand...they answered the question about where she was when she was kidnapped, and yeah, what happened to her too..i.e. she was drugged, injected, led to believe some shit...

3/3/2006 9:24:06 PM

but what was she injected with?

how was the baby affected?

why was she injected?

what's the bigger plan?

those are the important, unanswered questions

3/3/2006 11:05:19 PM

wtf are you bitching about

do you really expect them to present a bunch of questions and answer them all in the same episode

what fun would that be

3/3/2006 11:26:47 PM

monsters, viriii, black smoke....meh

3/3/2006 11:29:20 PM

that'd be a lot of fun

because then i could say "man, that was a good story" or "man, what a shitty cop-out"

i mean there's story telling, then there's teasing

LOST is the biggest tease show ever

3/3/2006 11:31:12 PM

I don't know if it is important or not but I noticed something. When Dr. Ethan is taking Claire down the hall to the nursery room for the first time, the hatch on the side of the hallway says "Escape Hatch"

3/3/2006 11:47:22 PM

right

it was still there when the homegirls wound up in the hall

3/4/2006 1:58:50 AM

is there a new episode tonight?

3/8/2006 8:51:21 AM

I'm waiting for the DVD to come out.

3/8/2006 9:21:13 AM

its not new tonight i dont believe

3/8/2006 9:22:32 AM

anyone who thinks this show is better then 24 should be shot

3/8/2006 9:28:01 AM

I don't have time to watch Lost why would I watch 24 too?

3/8/2006 9:29:11 AM

hah

sutherland

better than

Kate

[no]

3/8/2006 9:31:35 AM

i'd miss an episode of 24 before i missed an episode of Lost

3/8/2006 9:37:32 AM

I"ve missed several episodes of Lost so I'm going to wait and watch the whole series at once.
