wowie wow wow....what an episode eh? they left me with a lot to think about so i'm gonna try and sort it out here just a bit...
the others are completely badass!
seriously, seeing keamys crew of mercenaries get taken out so efficiently was both awesome and satisfying. the others have given us hints at their prowess before, but nothing on this scale.
boom.
that was a hell of a explosion wasn't it? i wonder though - what's in it for keamy to blow up the freighter? i mean it WAS their only way back off the island. it made me think of kurt russell's character in stargate, sorta. i wonder what his official orders from widmore were.
also the explosion left little doubt in my mind that jin is now dead. before that i was kinda hoping he was still alive on the island and just somehow missed the boat.
hurley.
so hurley is hanging out in the looney bin playing chess with dead folks (mr. eko) and getting visits from other crash survivors (walt, sayid, jack and locke - aka jeremy bentham). of all the oceanic 6 members i think he might be the easiest to talk into going back to the island. i wonder where sayid is taking him...and holy crap did walt ever have a growth spurt!
jack.
cripes what a mess this dude has turned out to be huh? he keeps making the wrong desicions and he just can't win. he's so hellbent on saving everyone else and he can't even save himself.
kate.
raising aaron and getting dream threats from claire. why doesn't claire want aaron to go back to the island? i think kate will be impossible to convince to go back.
sawyer.
what do you suppose it was he whispered to kate before he jumped? it was most likely whatever she promised to take care of when she got home...but what the hell was it? and was it really necessary for him to jump out of the helicopter so they could get back to the boat? would that little bit of weight have made any difference? on the other hand - hooray he lost his shirt swimming back to the island! *slips in drool*
claire.
so is she dead or isn't she? my gut is telling me she actually died when her house blew up but didn't know it until her dad showed up and told her as much. maybe not - but that's the way i'm leaning for now.
sun.
why is she helping widmore? is it a veiled plot for revenge or does she think jin somehow survived and made it back to shore? i don't know which way to go on that one but i will say it was agonizing hearing her scream after the boat blew up.
ben.
well, now we know why his nose was bloody, his arm injured and why he was wearing a parka in the desert a few episodes back. and who'd thunk the writers meant it literally when they were talking about the frozen donkey wheel. i think i was more spooked than jack when he turned up at the funeral home. he's not on the island anymore but he's still got some kind of connection to it i think. he says the island won't let jack go back unless they all go back together. why, i wonder? what about all the 'red shirts' that got killed on the freighter? didn't the island care about them being gone?
penny
thank goodness for penny! it was her boat that came to their rescue - i hope ben doesn't make good on his threat to kill her in revenge for his own daughter. i think that would destroy desmond.
desmond
he's off the island and reunited with his lost love but i don't think we've seen the last of him...
locke
wth? he was totally against leaving the island so why was he in new york living under the name jeremy bentham? when and why did he leave? i seriously doubt it was really suicide too. and if he was living in new york then why was the funeral in LA? it doesn't make sense...
daniel loves charlotte and miles is as cryptic as ever...
poor daniel, unrequited love sucks. he was plainly terrified of what was about to happen on the island and wanted to get his girl and get out of there. when last we saw him he was in the raft with a bunch of red shirts out in the ocean. i wonder what becomes of them? charlotte, on the other hand, has other plans. i can understand why miles might want to stay what with his ability to talk to the dead, but what did he mean when he said 'you've worked so hard to get back here' to charlotte? was she a dharma member? or maybe she's an 'other'? either way his comment seemed very snide.
bloop!
i think my favorite part of the episode was when the island disappeared. i loved that bloop sound it made after it was gone and that ripple of water where the shoreline used to be. i wonder where it was moved to and what's happening to the people who were left behind. how will they get their shipment of dharma flakes now that they've moved?
that's about all i can think of at the moment...
they filmed 3 different endings so that even the cast wouldn't know how it came out. they'll be showing the other two on good morning america today. i'm going to try and catch it...
now we begin the endless wait for season 5.....
