Summary: Jack is in command as the fate of Ben''s life literally rests in his hands. Meanwhile, Kate and Sawyer find an ally in one of "The Others", and Juliet makes a shocking decision that could endanger her standing with her people
OK so lets all discuss this episode.
SPOILERS
We all know that Sawyer and Kate are off of the "others" island but Jack is still there. I can't believe that Ben is Alex's dad, that had to be the big shocker of the episode for me

I thought it was a great contrast to see Juliet in Miami compared to her on the island. I know most people hate the flashbacks, but for me, this episode was a great example of why I love them. It's nice to have this show back

Oh MY GOD! Oh MY GOD! Oh MY GOD!!!!!!! Lost is back! I was waiting and waiting last night til 9:00 PM (PST) and when they showed their recap thing with commentary, I literally freaked out for a minute only to realize a minute afterwards, the new episodes will be shown at 10:00 PM! What a relief!
So, I think it was a good episode just to put the viewers back on track! I was just pissed off that Alex couldn't leave with Kate and Sawyer, and her boyfriend...It was so sadistic of Juliet! Oh gosh, I wish I could slam her face!
I wonder what happened to her sister. Was she brought along on the island? If so, did she die when getting birth to her baby? Why do the others have stolen those kids? What are they doing to them?
And what's up with Juliet's ex-husband being killed by a bus? WOW! It reminded me of Final Destination!lol
I am WAY tired of Ben, I just wish the writers would have made him dead by now...Gosh, I can't wait to be next wednesday!!!

While it was a good episode, yes, I'm glad we're FINALLY going to get to see some of the other characters again.

I'm so glad that Lost is back! BloodyFrenchy, I love your banner btw. I could stare at Sawyer forever. lol
It was a great episode. I'm getting my cousin into Lost. She never use to watch it but now she loves it and wants to have Jack's baby.
These are my ideas about what's going on with the stolen children/babys. That episode showed them using a treatment on women that I guess couldn't have children. I was wondering what would happen if they used the same treatment on healthy women. Maybe it would effect the children in some way. Make them smarter?

Thanks Shondra, but this very nice banner is Pedro's talent I think now that when Claire was abducted by that lunatic, he was probably using the same drug/ medicine Juliet was using on her sister...Maybe the others are trying to create a new "race": genetically perfect human beings, with no deficiency...It's obvious now than Dharma and the others are related, is it a private organization or something from the government?

is anybody else not mysterfied by the sudden reappearance of ethan!!!
He was shot dead in season 1!!
also....whats up with ben being alexs dad....does tha mean he is rousseau husband who she apparently killed? I just assumed that hes in a way like an adoptive father....alex was stolen as a baby so maybe the others have just brought her up thinking ben is her biological father but he actually isn't....hmmmmm.....also if they even consider killing off charlie.....or claire.....I will NOT be happy.
Kill frigging desmond! I hate him!!
omg if they killed hurley....I wouldn't mind that too much...I dont dislike hurley i love him actually and if thye killed him off it'd be so dramatic and sad. They seem to be on a mission to kill of all the passengers on the back of the plane....is this a pattern done on purpose....hmmmm....maybe its a nother clue to the island....cos ana lucia/libby/eko.australian hostess have all been killed off now! Maybe bernard will pop his clogs next....?

It's obvious now than Dharma and the others are related, is it a private organization or something from the government? There was this alternate reality game that went on for awhile that explained a lot about the background and motivations for the Dharma Initiative. You can still find some lingering things on the net about it. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanso_Foundation

I don't know if I would care that much. Charlie isn't my favorite anyway. I love Hurley. We gotta keep him in it. I'm sure there is more he can bring to the show.

K, it was a little confusing but I've watched it twice now so I think I got it. The episode was all about Desmond. It starts off with Locke, Sayid, Charlie, Hurley and Desmond having a meeting where Locke let's them know that Mr. Eko is dead. Charlie asked how and Locke tells him that the island killed him. The moment is interrupted by Desmond. He had a vision and immediately took off toward the camp. He goes right for the water and starts swimming. Everybody follows him and shortly realize that Claire is drowning and then Charlie takes off into the water but by then Desmond had brought her safely to the shore. Charlie says, how did ya know? and Hurley replys he knew because "that guy" can see the future.
Charlie and Hurley wanted to grill him to find out really how he did it. They found some whisky in Sawyer's stolen items and decided to get Desmond drunk. Desmond refused the whisky at first until he saw the brand and then he was all for it. After they were all drunk and singing drunkin songs Charlie asked Desmond again, how did he know know that Claire was drowning and about the lightening.
Desmond says he could just hear her but Charlie knows he was too far away for that. Desmond didn't want to answer and he walks away. Charlies said that Desmond thought he was a hero because he turned a Key and that he really was a coward. That upset Desmond and he starts attacking Charlie. Desmond yelled, "you don't want to know what happened to me."
Then we see a flashback to when Desmond turned the key and another of him back at his flat. He was laying on the floor covered in red paint. At first glance you think it might be blood but then you see the paint can and the half painted room. His gf(penny) comes to his aid with some ice and trying to help him. His expression and reactions are kind of odd like he remembered the island and he wake up from a bad dream.
In the flashback you learned that Desmond was a poor guy and the only good thing in his life was his gf(Penny). He has reminders of the the island constantly. Penny made him some coffee and it was the same sound that the machine on the island made when the numbers needed to be entered.
He does to meet with Penny's Father. She thinks to get a job for him but his intentions are to ask her hand in marriage. He asks but the father thinks he's worthless. As an example of that The father brings out this expensive whisky(The same whisky that Charlie will later offer him to get him drunk) and two glasses. He only pours a little in one glass and says that just that swallow is more than he could make in a month and it would be a waste to give him any of it.
He storms out upset, tearing off his tie and runs into Charlie on the street (singing for change). He recognize him and remembers more about the island. He's visions are coming very clear and not just about the island but other things. Desmond mets up with his friend. This indian guy(same guy that played the friend of Mohinder from Heroes) and was trying to explain to him that he is seeing the future. He tries to prove it to him from remembering the final score of a baseball game but it didn't end up happening the way he said, so his friend doesn't believe him.
Then Desmond goes to a jewelry store and looks for a ring for Penny. He says he will take the ring and the jewelry store clerk says no, this isn't right. You don't take the ring. You have second thoughts and walk out. You don't marry Penny. You go on that race around the world and end up on the island pushing the button for three years, till your forced to use the fail safe key.
Desmond is shocked and the clerk(sweet old lady) takes him outside and talking to him more about it. Desmond, at this point thinks that he's imagining the whole thing and thinking she's part of his subconscious and trying to talk him out of marrying Penny but he was going to go through with it. The old lady expains that he can't because he has to go to the island and push the button and yata yata. Then this building that is being worked on collapse and a man is killed. Desmond says to her, did ya know that was going to happen and she nods and he starts yelling well why didn't you do something. And she explained that it wouldn't matter. If she had helped him he would have died another way and he was suppose to die. Then she explained that it was his path to go to the island.
Desmond meets Penny at the pier and they take a picture. (the same picture Desmond still has with him on the island) He staring at the pictures and he realizes that he can't be with her and so he starts to argue with her and break it off. Then he's at a pub and catches the baseball game again and he realizes that what he said about it game was right but it was the wrong day. Then he gets knocked out by this angry bookie and wakes up on the island. It's at the moment after the Hatch exploded and he wakes up naked in the jungle. He finds the picture again, the one Penny and him took on the pier and then it flashes to the fight with Charlie where he's saying you don't want to know what happen to me.
Hurley breaks them up and Charlie says he's sorry for starting it by calling him a coward and helps Des to his tent. Charlie asks about what happened to him and then Desmond says that after the explosion his whole life flashed before his eyes and that the flashes didn't stop. Charlie ask, so you saw a flash of Claire and that's how you knew to save her? And then Desmond explains that he wasn't saving Claire but saving him and that morning He would have dove in after Claire and drown. Desmond tells him that when he saw the lighting it the roof(in his vision) he was suppose to be electrocuted that night. He said he's tried twice to save "him" and he was sorry but no matter what he tried to do. Charlie was still going to die.
lol, and that's how it ended. I hoped that helped!! I wonder if the part with the clerk/flashback was just what Desmond imagined when he was knocked out from the blasted or a real flashback. And the Part of Charlie and the universe trying to get him reminded me of final destination.
