whathoRegarding the numbers. No. Really, no. I don't want to watch people being stuck down a hatch pressing a button every 108 minutes. Unless they're Jack and Kate. Silly whiny bloody Jack. But pressing a button every 108 minutes is going to get very samey. And we have to find out what happens eventually if they don't. Though...okay...delaying the denouement can be a good thing. Except that it's all Lost ever does. Oh. I don't know.
Also I'm missing the monster. I liked that the countdown, when it whizzes to 108, makes the noises the smoke made when it zoomed through the jungle. It reminds me of the old days.
Regarding Locke. Oh god I love him. But I don't like that they gave him a love story. I find it much more poignant that he rings up a woman on a sex chatline not because he wants phonesex but because he wants to tell someone what he did in the office that day. And that he's not really had relationships. Except Boone, of course, and the hatchsex. But I love him so much. I think he's scared to sleep in a bed that isn't his own because the last time he did that he lost a kidney. Sensible fellow. And he cried all through the episode. I love him. I wonder what next almighty downfall they're going to conjure up for him. I'm kind of big on the angst thing, but I almost wish they'd make him happy again.
(I do have a hopeful pet theory that episode 2.3. Helen is not sex-worker Helen. Their relationship would have got to a pretty low ebb for that to happen. 2.3. Helen, at a guess, is no more. Possibly she went the way of Locke's legs. Now he's trying to recreate her in a sort of creepy necrophiliac way via other women called Helen. Don't tell me. But I don't think it was the best flashback it could've been.)
Regarding Hurley. Bless.
Regarding the Dharma Initiative. That video was a patent fib. It was a brief and lazy explanation for everything that's going on on the island, ergo it's not something Lost can possibly afford to take seriously. I'm...ick...I'm with Jack. That video is a device to make people press buttons. Now wash your hands.
Regarding Ana Lucia. Oh god no. I knew she was coming back. She's every bit as obnoxious as I knew she would be. Next to her, I love Jack. Well, no. Kate maybe. Never Jack. Jin bowed to her. Don't bow to her, Jin.
Regarding Desmond. I might have worshipped him a bit had he stayed. He's camp and fun and Scottish and while he very sensible questions whether or not what he's doing is flaming idiocy, unlike Locke, he'll do it anyway because he has a bit of imagination, unlike Jack. I wonder where he went. I hope he'll be happy.
