LOST Season Five Thread

[cribdog 0]

I absolutely acknowledge that Desmond got nose bleeds. I thought about that. I would argue that this was off the island. I wonder if time traveling OFF the island prepares you for time traveling ON the island. Therefore, I wonder if Desmond would be bleeding at this point, even though he was on the island longer than Juliet and Sawyer.

In thinking about it, Desmond's nose bleeds stopped after he found his constant, Penny. Daniel already found his constant, Desmond, as written in his diary, therefore he doesn't get the nosebleeds. Maybe that's it.

That is very possible. Seems logical enough.

 

I just don't want Juliet's nose bleeds to continue. Nobody wants her awesome boobie-rack to go away. I think she is by far the most attractive broad remaining on the show.

 

Edit: I've spent the last 2 hours arguing ancient civilization on LOST island on another message bored, and I'm tired. I'm glad to come back here and not be defending against a beating.

I absolutely concur with this!

Danielle is accusing Robert of having the sickness, the same sickness she spoke about during Season 1 as to what happened to rest of her castaways. She went on to explain that she had to shoot them all, and this was mostly true. After Robert convinces Danielle to lower her gun, creepily he tries to kill her. Click. Nothing. The island is protecting Danielle for a second time, against the wishes of whatever it was that the puppy dog Cerberus was dragging his prey back to, in the darkness of the underground

 

Don't know if it means anything, but back in season 1 when Sayid tried to shoot Danielle with the same rifle, Danielle mentioned that she'd removed the firing pin, knowing that Robert would try to shoot her first.

The island is protecting Danielle for a second time, against the wishes of whatever it was that the puppy dog Cerberus was dragging his prey back to, in the darkness of the underground. But Robert said something very interesting. The monster is a security system for the Temple. Is Robert trustworthy at this point? Is he telling us truth, or a lie to convince Danielle to lower her gun?

 

Danielle had removed the firing pin from his rifle. That's why it didn't fire not the island protecting her. In season 1 when Sayid ran back into her, while escaping from her capture of him, he tried to shoot her with a rifle he took but the gun didn't fire. Danielle said "the firing pin is removed........Robert never noticed either before I killed him."

[phillybear 366]

I missed/forgot a detail. Nicely done, folks.

 

When I rewatch all 5 seasons before next year, it will be interesting to see the puzzle pieces fall into place, just like that.

Philly....great write up. Too freaking long though. I wind up reading every word and it takes me like 20 focking minutes. I gotta get to bed! I suspect that you are a writer of some sort. Nobody summarizes the show like you. You have some serious insight.

[phillybear 366]

A kindly, kindred spirit has set up a blog for my LOST ramblings.

I'll keep posting the writeups here too. But it's a nice place for archives and stuff.

Everytime they make it look like Ben might be the good guy ... it comes right back with something to counter and make ya think Ben is the bad guy..

 

Right now the biggest question in the current story line is -- IS Christian really WITH Jacob or not??

Jack didn't have to work too hard.

 

Nice episode.

 

[blick 39]

Anyone think Kate let Jack knock her up so that Aaron didn't have to go?

 

Great Episode.

[Vikings4ever 550]

Best line of the episode....Ben Linus:

WHO CARES!

Very good line, one of those things that remind you, even if Ben can act like a good guy, he's a real bastard.

 

Also:

 

"Is he telling the truth?"

 

 

 

"Probably not."

Might be the only smart question I've ever heard Jack ask.

[CantTouchThis 23]

Hey, do you guys know when the new episode becomes available online? I know today sometime, i am just wondering what is the earliest time it can be viewed...

[cribdog 0]

So who kicked Ben's ass? Was it Desmond...it looked like he was calling Jack from a marina.

 

I thought it was Sayid...maybe that is why he is in custody.

[IAMWood 6]

I thought it was Sayid...maybe that is why he is in custody.

 

Taking Sayid to Guam because the beat the crap out of Ben in LA? Maybe Sayid kicked his arse and that is how he got caught. My guess is Desmond, especially since he wasn't on the plane.

 

[IAMWood 6]

Yeah, I was wondering how that would be explained. Maybe he was being deported or something.

 

I am looking forward to that episode explaining that one. Should be interesting.

They put it up pretty quick. I watched it at 5AM CST. Dont know how much earlier they put it up there.

Ben had a loose end to tie up ... and put in his baggage. Ben takes as much abuse as Mikhael does.

 

Also, Ben disappoints me. He's missing somebody. Where's WALT!

 

One more with Ben ... his mother taught him to read, there's an imediatly verifiable lie.

[cbfalcon 825]

So who kicked Ben's ass? Was it Desmond...it looked like he was calling Jack from a marina.

 

Does anyone think Ben killed Penny?

 

If you remember, he told Widmore he was going to kill his daughter as revenge for Keamy killing Alex. Thus, the "loose end" he had to tie up.

[cbfalcon 825]

 

That would also partially explain Ben's face when Desmond walked up at the church. I thought he was just surprised to learn that Hawkins was Faraday's mom, but somehow I'd expect Ben to already know that. He may have realized that he was going to get his chance to kill Penny.

[Sho Nuff 720]

And how Jin managed to get within the D.I.

 

Lots of things to talk about...but I will start here.

Yes...odd with Jin, but may not explain Farraday with the Dharma coat on while they were building the Orchid earlier this season.

The episode title...316...very nice, the flight number...and of course "John" Locke's supposed destiny. Great writing and thought as always into use of titles and numbers.

 

Of course the thought will be about Ben possibly having gone after Penny. But how in the world does Jack or anyone not ask him what the hell happened to his face?

 

As for Kate...maybe she was told (like Jack) that they had to try and replicate things. So she slept with Jack trying to get knocked up like Claire was the first time around.

[Sho Nuff 720]

Like the Lamp Post connection to The Chronicles of Narnia...Charlotte Staples Lewis...there's at least a few more....

 

Though is it really Locke's destiny...or is it Jack's? With Christian (aptly named) being "God" giving his only son Jack.

Which is why he was being tested for his own faith now...where as he was always a man of science while Locke was the man of faith.

[parrot 789]

One thought about Jin and the DI. When Locke turned the wheel, that was supposed to stop the time-hopping, correct? At what time did they stop hopping? The heyday of the DI maybe?

I came away from this episode thinking that Desmond's the only one with a lick of common sense.

hold that though, we haven't seen what happened at the marina with Ben-Desmond-Penny... (assuming that is what Ben was doing at the marina)

Yes, the marina. I take back what I said about Ben being beaten by Sayid, I think most cetainly something happened at the marina with Desmond, Penny, and Ben.

[cbfalcon 825]

I don't think Penny would be killed off at this point in the show....but if she was, that would certainly motivate Desmond to go back to the island, I would think.

 

With the writers telling the story out of sequence, she could easily be killed yet still be a part of it for the next season and a half.

 

Not to mention her death could be a big instigator. Widmore could be pushed into stepping up the pace of his actions. This brings Desmond back into the story (Otherwise, he is done now. Right?)

 

I think she is dead. Plus, she isn't all that hot.

Desmond is not done. Eloise made that pretty clear. And I don't think Penny would need to be dead to motivate Desmond. An unsuccessful attempt might be a better motivator, he needs to get Ben before Ben can try again to get Penny.

What i gathered here

 

Jacob is either Jack , Locke or Jacks Granddaddy -- looking more and More like a Jack / Locke toss up. In the previews - Lock had the same hood on and look that Jacob had in the Cabin during out really only shot of Jacob ( if someone has a screen shot ) -- BUT it seems Jack is really the most important person or at least that's how so many are acting. The whole Help Me - might of been referrring to asking Locke to help him see his importance.

 

We saw Widemore and Locke talking in the previews as well - - WOW!! Just when you think for certain Widemore is bad guy - who knows.

 

Mrs Hawking -- starting to think she plays all sides and maybe actually has alliegence to Widemore moreso anyone else. As Faraday is almost certainly Widmores son..

 

Ben - talk about a total question mark. Good / evil what is he. I do think he has definitley lived this once at least already he has to to to be as calm and "bored" as he is in crisis. he acts like all this is really just old hat ... running through the motions. The whole you changed the rules was that Alex didn't die in any previous time loops. Ben I think is getting bored with the endless cycle and is trying to change things up himself.

 

I think the whole coming back to the Island thing will be what expalins the premise behind Richards immoratliy and I don't think Richard is only immortal.

 

 

Locked looked ressurected in the previews but the writers said they were NOT doing that

 

Pretty sure all flashbacks to finish out season will be how all the o6 decided to get on plane.

Im leaning this way.

With the 316 reference this week, plus John (the Baptist maybe) Locke being the one trying to get Jack to believe and steer him towards more faith vs. science.

Jack's family being the ones in Jacob's cabin (Christian and Claire). Agreed on the help me which fits right in.
