In that case...I'm going to say that Abbadon told Hurley to get on the plane.

Oooh, nice. I like it.

I'm pretty sure I saw some blood on his shirt. but his clothes did look more blood-free than you'd think from looking at his face.

you know, sometimes i think they give characters wet hair after being in a fight to mimick sweat or something. i mean, if ben went through what it looks like he went through, i think he'd be sweating bullets...from his scalp.

It's crazy enough if Miles is Chang's kid, let's not go into the Twilight Zone with the idea that Miles is Sun and Jin's offspring. Please!?

I can see it now...

Jack: "...judging by the decay of the clothing...HOLY CRAP! that's my shirt! Kate, aren't those your fashion-forward pants?!

I hope Frank stays away from any hole's in the windows of the cockpit. Could be dangerous. Monster killed the 815 pilot because he was not supposed to be there, frank was. So Frank should be safe. But the pilot was there, which means he was supposed to be there, right? If smokey is killing people w...

but you know what else would have worked? ben answering jack's question, with the truth. This is Ben we are talking about. Of course. But I think there's something to be said for dropping the charade and being honest. Especially at this point in the story. If it's so important Jack come back, shoul...

David3 wrote:Judging by the decay of the clothing....ahhh, nevermind.

super LOL

this scene was strange. jack asked ben who mrs. hawking is, how she knows all this. then ben diverts his attention with a story about a disbeliever. It obviously works on jack, seeming to shame him into believe. but you know what else would have worked? ben answering jack's question, with the truth.

God, this who recreation thing better stop at the crash. i don't want to relive the pilot, or any other parts of season 1.

!!!!!

but he won't do it right...

Desmond gets the award for best choreographed indignance. He danced around that pendulum like a pro.

David3 wrote: I think the flashes will stop, at least for now. I think they are stuck in the time of the Dharma Initiative, probably the early seventies.

I completely agree.

I dont know, even for Ben that lie is pretty hard to defend. Even if his justification is that he saw "Bentham," Bentham is Locke nevertheless. Ben lied. Shocker.

There were 2 very funny jokes on this podcast (imho).

What made you guys laugh? (besides some of the show's plotlines... zing!)

[quote="David3'] There's two problems... 1. Desmond didn't remember it the morning after "present-day Faraday" told him. He remembered it three years after the helicopter crash. All of the off-island events are taking place three after the on island events we are currently seeing. One question I hav...

Yes, the US needs to change. it will be hard at first for most people, but better in the long run. As you all's anecdotes point out, conversions are the worst part about the imperial system. Why didn't we throw that in the harbor with the tea?

Hey,

Thanks for the listening. Glad to have you aboard the LLD train.

I think something like what you're describing is going on. I definitely think the island needs a constant.

i think it's both.

And maybe the guy who knocked up Claire is Ben's son. That is how he was planning on getting Aaron: he is his grandson. craziness!! ALSO, regarding Sun being a bad babysitter. Remember that Claire is also the world's worst mother. Maybe it's AARON, not Sun and Claire. Maybe kind of like how the Sic...

Anyone agree?

I had the same idea. Even thought to cut us out of Paul's pic and paste us into the S5 pic! lol

this is why alpert keeps returning to locke's life; he's waiting until locke shows some signs of being "ready."

I like that idea.

yeah, i dont remember why we know it was 1996 and Desmond doesn't. Didn't he see a calendar at some point? I didn't even realize this was an issue until he said he couldn't remember.

I'm sorry. :P

yeah, the painting is a significant piece of my evidence. is alpert the only other who doesnt age? juliette sorta made me think that. and speaking of, she would never use the sentence "because im An Other" and IF she is really an other , WHY IS SHE TIME TRAVELING WITH THE LOSTIES?! So in your theor...

Hey guys,

Fellow LLDer Dawn set up a Twitter to catch the highlights of the podcast. I think it's a great idea. And she's right, who has the time?

Check it out.

This ep was great. So many nice reveals. And so many of them done with finesse!!! The titular reference: only seen on the bomb. No one had to say it. Awesome. Penny giving birth--came out of now where: great (although, ugh for another baby on the show) Baby is named Charlie: another great reveal. an...

Guess I'll get in on this:

1. Jughead (for the the Widmore reveal alone)
2. Because You Left & The Lie (come on, it's one epsiode, isn't it?)

If that's the case then why does your business card say "circumnavigator of the globe."

Touche!

Vince,

First, welcome to the forum.
Second, you're very welcome for your favorite podcast!

Kudos on starting this list. It's impressive! And I think this is a good source to use over last two seasons to keep track of what we don't know about stuff they bring up.

Sawyer called me "Magellan"
Which I like as nickname, but I so rarely attempt to circumnavigate the world these days...

The fact that no other commerical pilot has successfully completed an emergency water landing is uber impressive. He made it look effortless.

Yeah the pic is pretty spot on. I love it!

Hey all! The podcast should be up late tonight or tomorrow.

It's good to be back. We missed you guys...

Happy New Year! Happy New Season!

Thank you all for the kinds words!! It's much appreciated and reciprocated!

Congrats YKW!

Look for it by the end of the week...

I agree with TheRadioTower's assessment, but I really like your theory David3.

I don't know how much Paik Industries is worth, but I'm thinking that Sun may not have had enough to do it alone.

Who is this "Damon" and "Carlton" everyone keeps talking about? And what in the world is a podcast?

http://i26.tinypic.com/16hrqcl.jpg Here's a link to Ben's baton. It's clearly not the same. There are too many problems with the idea that Jack went back in time, and that when he awakens at the beginning of the pilot, that's a future Jack, having returned for some reason. Where did the Jack on the ...

I expected more comments on this episode. Maybe everyone's just waiting for the podcast?

I don't think Claire made (will make) it off the island.

And if it was Claire in the coffin, Kate should ignore whatever would make her not want to go to Claire's funeral and go for the simple reason of taking Aaron.

And why would Claire's mom (and her aunt) not come to her own daughter's funeral?

even the closest guess is way off.... ;)

Yeah, I could see Sayid leaving with Jack, Kate, Aaron, Hurley and Sun for what is supposed to be the first trip to the freighter. Then, when Sayid gets back to the island to pick up the second group, the island is gone! And maybe that scene in Cabin Fever where Locke gives Hurley the choice is real...

They better not be time traveling. Just because we've seen Desmond pseudo-time travel, I don't think it's something other people can do. If Abbadon could time travel, why not go back in time and put a GPS on Flight 815 before it takes off? Then Widmore would know the exact (or very close) location o...

I was afraid of this. We didn't do this scene very well....

Stephen, that pic is so perfect.

Thanks Stephen! Makes me want to work on my Widmore impression.
