Oh, my my. Extremely intense episode. Indeed 'Zeke' was wearing makeup and the others are indeed in costume at times. Sun may be pregnant... who didn't see that coming? And Alex is a live and well. All the medical stuff with Ethan and Claire. My faith is restored that this season is going to end in spectacular fashion.
And Locke got totally owned by Henry.
Anyone remeber what Henry told Sayid his wifes name was?
I believe it was Jennifer.
I was working on the idea that he being an "Other" had taken his identity from the Wizard of OZ. Henry Gale was Dorothy?s uncle and Dorothy uses a hot air balloon to get back home. Just a little TOO close to be chance.
Much discussion about this at Lost-TV.
NOT READING THIS YET...I HAVE IT RECORDED!

Odd for a Lost episode: this one ANSWERED more questions than it raised.
There's plenty of questions that are more pertinent now than ever considering the amount of Darma technology that exists on the island.
Are the others responsible for the accident and bringing people there... or just benefiting by their unfortunate mishap?
Why do they have all this technology there only to abandon that station?
Is the black smoke under the control of the others or something they can't control and are hiding from as well?
Became disinterested in Lost 2-3 weeks ago.
When I was into it, even then it didn't excite as much as 24, The Shield, Rescue Me and Nip/Tuck.
My former English 10 teacher, who's a hardcore TV and movie person like myself (not only that - we're basically the same kind of person), agrees with me that the writers have no idea where they're going... they're just throwing what they can think of into a cauldron without any real resolution in mind.
Sometime when we pass each other in the hallway, we'll stop and discuss TV/movie related shit for about 3-7 minutes.
I was getting worried that they didn't know where they were going, but my faith has been restored. Of course I'm sure I'll become frustrated a bit by some episodes, but I think they're really going to ramp it up closing out the season. I mean, they do want us to watch it next season.
Did we ever get a clue about what the hell a polar bear was doing on the island?
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Well, maybe Walt manifested the bear. That's one theory since the bear was in the comic he was reading. And it appears Walt was able to manifest the bird crashing into the window at his parents'. Or it escaped from a Dharma zoological experiment. There are a few theories about the bears natural abilty to blend into their environment and almost become invisible. Remember a horse also appeared to Kate, and Jack's father appeared to Jack.Quote:

Or maybe it just gave Sawyer something to shoot.

I remember Locke flinging the dishes, but don't remember what was the reason for it.Quote:

What happened again? How did Henry play Locke????
Henry basically called Locke Jack's bitch.
Okay, I watched it last night.
Did anyone else notice that Mr. Echo called Locke "Jack" the first time he saw him in the hatch? Both my daughter and I thought we heard that.
I still say this story is very fluid. The writers are very much manipulating the plot based on viewer's responses.
So what's up with the "airliner" mobile in the nursery? A bit sophisticated for a baby, eh? It does make you wonder if the "other" do cause the crashes.
I think the "smoke" monster is a Dharma ESP or electromagnetic (or both) experiment gone wrong. I believe it manifests people's fears.
