LOST Season 5, Episode 4

**LindenCy** · 02-04-2009, 11:21 PM

So what did you guys think of the episode tonight? I thought it was good but short. It kind of worked as a bridge episode and looks to continue on next week.

I guess it has been a busy day of Cyclone athletics since I hadn't noticed a thread on this yet.

I liked the episode, but I the action on the island is kind of a let down. It seems like those left on the island have no clear goal in mind. They are just kind of wandering around aimlessly, waiting for the next time lapse. But action back in L.A. is heating up...

What ever happened to the other island...the one with the bear cages and stuff? At first I thought thats where those boats came from. Karl used a boat like that to get to and from that island.

Im starting to think Sayid is no sissy.

The Russo twist was pretty interesting.

Yeah, I wonder what the disease is that overcomes her shipmates so much that she kills them all.

Decent episode but not in the relm of the first 3. I agree with LindenCy that is felt more like a bridge episode.

I figured it was Ben who was trying to take Aaron away from Kate. The 2 big questions I have now are 1) How do they get Sun to go back (if they even do) and 2) How does Locke get back?

Judging from events in this one and the preview for next week, Sun goes back for Jin. Ben tells her he can prove he is alive. Locke goes back by turning the wheel in the Orchid.

By the way, the WTF look on Jins face after he meets Rousseau is priceless.

Makes sense. My Tivo cutoff the last half of the previews for next week.

As for turning the wheel, didn't Ben say you can never come back after doing that?

I'm kinda getting frustrated with lost this season, I thought we'd be finding out more stuff and the scenes on the Island are a little slow.

What?! You didn't love that 3 minute long scene where Sawyer sees Kate and just stares at her to some sappy music?

If you havent noticed, Ben is kind of a liar. =) I am assuming Ben will come back to the island with the rest, so if he can, so can Locke...dead Locke.

I love the fact that the new episodes are basically just showing you what happens and not introducing new mysteries. It's paid off to watch all these years.

What! Ben lies? I would negative rep you if I could for such blasphemy!

I am surprised how quick everything is happening in LA, but I am sure there are more twists to be had. The bottle of water the people on the island found seems to indicate there may have been another plane crash, which could get really confusing.

Dead for now. The words on the side of Ben's van at the Marina..."Rainier-Canton". It's an anagram for "reincarnation."

The writers are notorious for using these as clues...ie. Mittelos (Lost Time), Hoffs/Drawler Funeral home where Locke's body was (Flash Forward).

Now did you figure that out, or have you been reading the spoiler page?
