OCEANIC SIX HAS RETURNED!

[wandering_aimlessly]

[Thomas Hobbes]

What We Missed in the Pilot Part 2. I didn't see a white shoe hanging in the tree this time around...

[wandering_aimlessly]

No plane needed this time apparently.

[LOSTForever]

Oh my freaking GAWD!

[lostislander]

[Mechanical_Vader]

And here...we...GO!!!

[merry slug]

HOLY Firggin CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[RadioDave]

[wandering_aimlessly]

Interesting door.

[Thomas Hobbes]

So was there ever a plane crash, or the first time around is this what happened? What would explain the fuselage?

[RadioDave]

um... wow?

[Chinamom]

AAAAAAAAAACCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKK! Tornado warnings kicking in!! What happened when she flipped the switch?!?!!?

[wandering_aimlessly]

The freaking LAMPPOST??? WAsn't there a lamp post in the Chronicles of Narnia by CS Lewis??

[Diamondduste]

Nice continued C.S. Lewis reference

[chud]

Where are Sun, Ben, and Desmond? Did they not go as well?

[LoonyLuna]

what did the paper say in jacks pocket

[lostified]

Although I have been watching the show every season, this is the first episode that I'm excited about. Love the Dharma room with the swinging pendulum.

[Diamondduste]

The freaking LAMPPOST??? WAsn't there a lamp post in the Chronicles of Narnia by CS Lewis??

Yeah... it's how the kids found their way back to the wardrobe.

[sawyersgirl]

What did the paper Jack had say? I wish...?

[merry slug]

what did the paper say in jacks pocket

I think it said "I wish"

[lostified]

I think it says "I wish..."

[LOSTForever]

Hurley and the guitar? Charlie's guitar??????

[merry slug]

I can't believe we're already seeing them back on the island!

[RadioDave]

what did the paper say in jacks pocket

I wish was all that was readable... but it looked there was a lot more either washed away, or ripped off.

[tigros999]

I wish/ I will/ i would/ I gotta watch again!!!

[Dew]

I am watching and missed stuff already? Gonna be fun transcribing all this no dialogue. :faintthud

[wandering_aimlessly]

"Probably Not" HA Ha Ha

[Thomas Hobbes]

Dharma Symbol on door:
Looks like a lamp, with two distinct beams shining off of it. Or a lighthouse?
No screen cap yet, so this will have to do:
--A
>U<
--U
--u

While constructing my 'screen cap' I read "lamp post" in the comments. I was close!

[Mechanical_Vader]

Jack: "Is he telling the truth?"
Eloise: "Probably not."
Ben: ...

LOL!!!

[LOSTForever]

"Is he telling the truth?"
"Probably not."

CLASSIC!

[wandering_aimlessly]

so it is always moving

[Diamondduste]

Talk about some kicking exposition right here...

[RadioDave]

Ms. Hawkings speech= the most answers given in one speech.... EVER!

[Diamondduste]

Sucks to be Desmond...

[LoonyLuna]

angry. desmond. for. the. WIN.

[lostified]

Desmond finally realizes that he has been used like a game piece.

[wandering_aimlessly]

anybody else waiting for the pendulum to hit Des?

[snakey]

Even Ms hawking turns out to be an island gopher, is she any better than Ben?

[tigros999]

go Desmond!!!

[wandering_aimlessly]

Mrs Hawkinge is CREEPY

[Dew]

Oh brother, a Jack episode. :no:

[merry slug]

Tell me Jack doesn't have to crash the plane.
Why do more innocent people have to die?

[Radio Mogul]

so who is really calling the shots???

[LoonyLuna]

anybody else waiting for the pendulum to hit Des?

i was kinda hoping he would grab it and fling it at eloise

[snakey]

Penelope's name was never mentioned when he was telling them about losing 4 years of his life, interesting because of Ben's other mission , to kill Widmore's daughter.

[RadioDave]

arg... lost the signal for a bit... what did Hawking say about getting "as many of the original people" as they could to be on that flight?

[Dew]

Wait! Plane, flight 316, Frank???? :pray1:

[snakey]

I think Jack has to go get Hugo.

[lost tiger]

"that's all for you"

wake you dead ass up Locke!

[merry slug]

Oh brother, a Jack episode. :no:

Hang on, Dew. Did you watch the credits carefully? :rolleyes: :D

[c0nst4nt]

jack was writing an obituary for his father in the first plane crash instance. I think he is trying to recreate that here with the paper in his pocket.

[sawyersgirl]

i was kinda hoping he would grab it and fling it at eloise

Me too! "Now-you'll never find it! Muah ha ha~"

[wandering_aimlessly]

Why didn't Des grab her and shake her to demand some answers. WHY was he sent there, WHY did she have contact with him in the past. Too many questions for him not to demand answers.

[The_Monster_Mash]

does the Lamp Post explain the numbers?!?!

[Dew]

Hang on, Dew. Did you watch the credits carefully? :rolleyes: :D

Nope, was getting more tea. Was only watching the picture. Can't read that far anymore. Cataracts. :(

[snakey]

Wait! Plane, flight 316, Frank???? :pray1:
Oh yes, by the way a cute older guy by the name of Jeff plays the part, I bet you didnt know that:nanabobo:

[sawyersgirl]

jack was writing an obituary for his father in the first plane crash instance. I think he was trying to recreate that here.

Ahhh!!!

[lovelostgirl]

what is the picture of behind eloise?

It looked like 3 men. with Jesus.

[Diamondduste]

Locke's death a suicide... bummer.

[LoonyLuna]

FOR JACKS DAD

[wandering_aimlessly]

Christian.

[tigros999]

John substitutes for Christian?

[Diamondduste]

AHHH!

John take's Christian's "place" on the flight...

Thus making John the new "Ghost" like Christian.

[Chinamom]

ANYONE ELSE TRYING TO WATCH IN ATLANTA?!??!?!

There is no tornado as far as I can tell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Locke's suicide note" then cut to emergency alert!

WHAT IS HAPPENING!

[snakey]

Locke's death a suicide... bummer.

I aint buying that, unless he was told he had to do it, he's a company man ultimately.

[sawyersgirl]

Paper from suicide note?

[wandering_aimlessly]

Ben praying?? I've seen it all now.

[LoonyLuna]

aww ben praying and lighting a candle for his daughter ? <3

[Diamondduste]

Put's new perspective in Christian's death -

It could have been intentional on his part.

[lostislander]

It looked like 3 men. with Jesus.
bingo! thanks!

[wandering_aimlessly]

Heavy religious overtones coming into it now.....

[tigros999]

HE CALLED JACK JOHN?

[Diamondduste]

Look's like Ben is going after Penny...

[wandering_aimlessly]

Bens off to find Penny and kill her.

[Mechanical_Vader]

Would that loose end be Penny Hume?!

[snakey]

This religiosity is vexing me. I also didnt want to think that Christian was THAT guy.

[RadioDave]

tying up a loose end= killing Penny... please don't let me be right!

[Dew]

Oh yes, by the way a cute older guy by the name of Jeff plays the part, I bet you didnt know that:nanabobo:

Now I do. http://i303.photobucket.com/albums/nn137/Dew2008/Smilies/b541c60a.gif

[wandering_aimlessly]

white bunnies!

[Dew]

Lag???

[chud]

Would that loose end be Penny Hume?!

Damn - that's it.....................

[wandering_aimlessly]

Gran'pa?

[snakey]

Where the heck did the peepaw come from, man, this show is throwing in everything and anything.

[snakey]

What custom sends the dead dudes shoes to his father? I'm seriously laughing now.

[Diamondduste]

Where the heck did the peepaw come from, man, this show is throwing in everything and anything.

I'm sure some are thinking a cabin in the middle of a jungle ;)

[snakey]

I'm telling Sawyer, no kissing on Jack!

[wandering_aimlessly]

So they're willing to sacrifice a plane full of people to get back there? Not a very nice thing to do is it?

[lost tiger]

so if locke wears christians shoes in the coffin who do the white shoes belong to that christian had to wear?

[Radio Mogul]

What custom sends the dead dudes shoes to his father? I'm seriously laughing now.

maybe if he sees, GWBush, he can throw them at him.....

[snakey]

Wandering Aimlessly, How else is he going to get those shoes back to Chris?

[sawyersgirl]

Think she gave Aaron to grandma to protect him?

[RadioDave]

OK... quick vegas odds for what Kate did with Aaron:
Killed him 100:1
Put him on a plane to Korea to hang with Ji Yeon 75:1
Gave him to Claire's mom to look after 50:1

Any betters?

[WayneInNYC]

What custom sends the dead dudes shoes to his father? I'm seriously laughing now.

When my Brother passed away, the majority of his belongings were dispersed among his many friends, clothing included.

Waste not, want not. What's so hard to understand?

[GG]

so if locke wears christians shoes in the coffin who do the white shoes belong to that christian had to wear?Good point. I wish I had an answer for you.

[sawyersgirl]

Dharma land shark ate Aaron.

[Diamondduste]

OK... quick vegas odds for what Kate did with Aaron:
Killed him 100:1
Put him on a plane to Korea to hang with Ji Yeon 75:1
Gave him to Claire's mom to look after 50:1

Any betters?

It's obvious it's something she's not proud of doing.

[RadioDave]

So they're willing to sacrifice a plane full of people to get back there? Not a very nice thing to do is it?

Makes you wonder if people aboard 815 were hoping to find the island in the same way.... and that flight was a set up too?

[lost tiger]

i think the white tennis shoes owner are gonna be one of the bigest oh <snip> moment of the series

[GG]

OK... quick vegas odds for what Kate did with Aaron:
Killed him 100:1
Put him on a plane to Korea to hang with Ji Yeon 75:1
Gave him to Claire's mom to look after 50:1

Any betters?My feeling is she gave him back to Claire. We still don't know Claire's whereabouts.

[RadioDave]

It's obvious it's something she's not proud of doing.
Or she just doesn't want Jack or anyone else to find him?

[sawyersgirl]

It's obvious it's something she's not proud of doing.

I'm thinking she wants to try and forget the pain of giving him up. This is Kate-she would do anything for that kid. She did whatever she thought was the right thing.

[chud]

OK... quick vegas odds for what Kate did with Aaron:
Killed him 100:1
Put him on a plane to Korea to hang with Ji Yeon 75:1
Gave him to Claire's mom to look after 50:1

Any betters?


He's with Sawyer's baby's mama................?

[wandering_aimlessly]

Tennis shoe answer! :-)

[Thomas Hobbes]

Oh no. "Step into your father's/the leader's shoes..."

[indylocke]

So... Kate ditched Aaron and then is in the mood to hook up with Jack. I'm gettin' weirded out by that dynamic really.

[RadioDave]

Well theres your white tennis shoes answer

[lost tiger]

they were jack's shoes!!! not as cool as i thought it would be

[Mechanical_Vader]

HA! Love the explanation of Christian's white tennis shoes!

[wandering_aimlessly]

Oh crap. WTF happened to Ben????

[RadioDave]

Wow... looks like Desmond got to Ben before Ben got to Penny

[indylocke]

Whoa, Ben had a bad night huh?

[sawyersgirl]

Ben...what did you do!?

[chud]

I HATE YOU BEN!!!!!!!!! PENNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[Mechanical_Vader]

Oh no! Desmond and Penny...and Charlie. :(

[wandering_aimlessly]

Penny beat the crap out of Ben.

[DBCooper]

Not to hijack at thread but, seriously, when they land (go back) on the island and meet Sawyer is he 4 days older or have they been jumping for 3 years on the island??

[wandering_aimlessly]

John Locke! Wakey, wakey. Eggs and Bacy!

[Thomas Hobbes]

I think Kate's actually the Smoke Monster... She's bad. And smokey.

[wandering_aimlessly]

READ THE LETTER. OUT LOUD!!!

[snakey]

Lockes holding up pretty well. Why'd the Butcher ask Jack what was in his bag, seemed to be a weird question, it isnt anything to her.

[Diamondduste]

Not to hijack at thread but, seriously, when they land (go back) on the island and meet Sawyer is he 4 days older or have they been jumping for 3 years on the island??

The jumps have stopped since Locke put the wheel back on its axis..

[indylocke]

I am just guessing that we're not seeing that letter until the show's finale. Anyone agree?

PS - anyone notice that is "Steve the Pirate" from Dodgeball in that DirecTV commercial?! LOL.

[Mechanical_Vader]

John Locke! Wakey, wakey. Eggs and Bacy!

Wakey, wakey. Hands off snakey! :nanabobo:

[Dew]

My nerves. :hyper:

[snakey]

He's with Sawyer's baby's mama................?

OOOOOH, that a good one.

[Thomas Hobbes]

White tennis shoe connection to the Pilot! He wasn't worth a nice pair of shoes.

[GG]

I am just guessing that we're not seeing that letter until the show's finale. Anyone agree?I agree.

[Warp_Burton]

I wonder if Locke being the proxy keeps Ben off the island...

[merry slug]

Is Ben hurt????

If he dies I'm hunting down TPTB

[chud]

Stupid - why would Jack not read the letter? He's such an arrogant SOB - he can't ever get a clue.........

[iluvjack]

so are we loving all these Jack scenes or what? lol:nanabobo:

[sawyersgirl]

Dear Jack,
(Insert all answers to show here)
Love,
Locke

[snakey]

Not to hijack at thread but, seriously, when they land (go back) on the island and meet Sawyer is he 4 days older or have they been jumping for 3 years on the island?? We've been asking that since the premiere, only the Shadow (Darlton) knows for sure. We do know even if static times moves differently on the island.

[wandering_aimlessly]

Is that coffin cabin baggage or will you be checking it today?

[tigros999]

Another Sayid?

[Diamondduste]

Wow...

Sayid's now with the Marshall

[snakey]

Oh Shoot, I got a ticket from the Ajira site , so all of us who signed up will die? Will they kill the ARG'ers? lmao!

[c0nst4nt]

is this punk supposed to be Caesar. that would suck big time

[wandering_aimlessly]

WTF?? Sayyid is playing the same role that Kate did on the original flight (in handcuffs)???

[RadioDave]

go Hurley! Saving innocent people!!

[wandering_aimlessly]

Unanswered questions starting to pile up again damn it.

[LoonyLuna]

sayid is the fugitiveeeee

[Mechanical_Vader]

Hurley's a good guy. He bought all those seats to save the other people from getting island-wrecked.

[sawyersgirl]

If you were a stewardess or passenger, and you saw the Oceanic 6 all get on your flight...wouldn't you want off of that plane like NOW?

[sawyersgirl]

Charlie's guitar?

[wandering_aimlessly]

So Oceanic 815 was a set up as well??

[snakey]

I guess Ben got Sayid arrested for a beat down, hee, Ben getting beat up, again. He's a lttle trooper.

[sawyersgirl]

Charlie told Hugo?

[blaze98]

wow, this scene brings up so much deja vu

[wandering_aimlessly]

That's the Ben we know and love. Kill 'em all, I don't care.

[TheMaxRebo]

So Oceanic 815 was a set up as well??

Didn't Ben need a surgeon ?

[indylocke]

If you were a stewardess or passenger, and you saw the Oceanic 6 all get on your flight...wouldn't you want off of that plane like NOW?

Word!

I also wouldn't take my seatbelt off like Jack just did... ;)

[RadioDave]

Charlie told Hugo?
My thoughts exactly

[iluvjack]

Q music lol.


Why the heck didn't the flight attendants notice the O6 all on the same plane!!

[LoonyLuna]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH FRANK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Diamondduste]

Frank!

[RadioDave]

FRANK!!!!! Dew is happy!

[indylocke]

FRANK!?! Wow.

[wandering_aimlessly]

Frankie! Now all we need is Des.

[Selestina118]

O.O That's Frank!!??

ETA: I didn't recognize him without the beard and being all dirty. XD

[indylocke]

...and shaved at that! Wow again.

[iluvjack]

YAYY DEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HE LOOKS SO GOOD:Cheers:

[Diamondduste]

Hahaha...

Frank is the man!

[snakey]

Will Frank be killed too with all the mazers who played the ARG?
He looks good shaved like ol' dreamboat Jeff.

[wandering_aimlessly]

Frank, if I were you I'd turn the plane around NOW!

[Dew]

:swoon: Look at that face! :swoon:

[Thomas Hobbes]

I'm on DVR, but I read it, so, FRANK! And BEN!

[Mechanical_Vader]

DEW!!! FRANK!!! DO YOUR SWOON!!!

[Diamondduste]

"We're not going to Guam, are we?"

Line of the night

[georgiaknight33]

"We're not going to Guam, are we?"

BEST <snip> QUOTE. <333

[Brian]

:swoon: Look at that face! :swoon:

I thought of you when I heard his voice. I loved that line too, "We're not going to Guam, are we?".

[LOSTForever]

Frank has the best line EVER! Dew must be beaming right about now! :D

[Jack Shephard]

franks on the plane too. but wouldnt ben being on it mess everything up?

[Dew]

Will Frank be killed too with all the mazers who played the ARG?
He looks good shaved like ol' dreamboat Jeff.

Gorgeous. :naughty:

ARG??? Killed??? :weeping:

[DHARMA815]

Looks like Frank is going back to the Island with them!!! YAY Dew!!

[Thomas Hobbes]

This is straight crazy watching this. Just waiting for a plane crash.

[merry slug]

Think she gave Aaron to grandma to protect him?

:swoon: Look at that face! :swoon:

I saw him on the credits and thought of you Dew!

He looks awesome - and what a line!
"We're not going to Guam, are we?"

[J_C]

You wanna know where the suspension of disbelief begins on this show?
That Jack made it through Med School. That he even went to college.

[LostVoyeur]

I jumped up and came here just for DEW

[iluvjack]

"We're not going to Guam, are we?"

Line of the night

DEF!!

OMG it's destiny

[Dew]

I thought of you when I heard his voice. I loved that line too, "We're not going to Guam, are we?".

I could name that voice with 1 syllable. :D

[Z054J]

Haha! Awesome! Lapidus! And he was totally clueless!

New sig line? "We're not going to Guam, are we?"

[Randy Nations]

Dew, Jeff delivered that awesome line perfectly. Raise eyebrow! Yay, Frank is back!

[lovelostgirl]

HE CALLED JACK JOHN?

I don't know why, but Jack is a nickname for John. So Jacks real name is probably John Shepard.

[wandering_aimlessly]

Don't get too worked up about Frank. Remember what happened to the pilot of 815.....

[merry slug]

Will Frank be killed too with all the mazers who played the ARG?


Wait, what???

[Dew]

O.M.G I am out of breathe and haven't moved. :swoon: Thank you TPTB gods. :worthy:

[lost tiger]

looks like it is gonna be franks voice we hear saying one of the numbers during the transmision

[Randy Nations]

I jumped up and came here just for DEW

Me too!!!!

[GimongousLostFan]

"We're not going to Guam, are we?"

Line of the night


:yeah:

[wandering_aimlessly]

The guys lost Charlotte, so its only fair the girls lose Frank.

[merry slug]

HOw can you read

My mother taught me

OMG THAT's AWESOME

[sawyersgirl]

Don't get too worked up about Frank. Remember what happened to the pilot of 815.....

...he turned into a mind reader with super powers.

[snakey]

Yeah Dew, the game in the webmaze thread was lame this hiatus, then ABC came up with Ajira airlines, we signed up and got boarding passes and tickets and now we find out Ben, my fave, says who cares if I die, boohoo, how could he.

[Mechanical_Vader]

Thank you, Lord. He's gonna read the letter!

[Diamondduste]

Talk about a guilt trip...

[tigros999]

Ben is charlie in the bathroom

[wandering_aimlessly]

Spot the new red shirts

[Dew]

Frank can fly to the island tho. :pray1:

[snakey]

I don't know why, but Jack is a nickname for John. So Jacks real name is probably John Shepard.
umm, it's been mentioned a couple of times... since season one. JK, welcome to the Monkey House!
So Ben's mother taught him to read island apparition style.

[Diamondduste]

Snap...

They got a time shift as well.

[blondiejam]

i wonder who the random guy is in first class.... seems like we'll see him again...

[Dew]

A frakking flash?????????????????????

[RadioDave]

Wait... was that a time flashy jumpy? Me no thinky they be in 2008 no more

[wandering_aimlessly]

So no plane crash, but a time jump flash????

[snakey]

Geronimo Jackson on th eradio?

[Diamondduste]

And we are back in trippy DHARMA time...

Time to set everything up leading to the first crash

[Selestina118]

O.O *Mind has been blown* :D

Endless supply of old VW Vans, I still see them running on the riad every once and awhile.

I dont think Frank's dead, he didnt shave to die!

Jin? WTF???? wow! my head is blown

[Randy Nations]

JIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jin gets another....JIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! moment.

This show just keeps ratcheting it up a notch, which is why I love it!!

Time flashed sucked to O6 back to the Island!!! Very Kewl.

I'm betting the others on the plane are all fine. I don't think TPTB would maliciously kill the rest of the passengers. That would just be in very poor taste. (Especially with the recent plane crashes - One with a happy end - One with tragic results.)

Was the flash on the plane the same as Locke fixing the wheel?

Maybe this makes them stuck in the time of the Dharma Initiative. I think they're in the same time period in which Daniel was at the very start of the season.

Anywho, can we get some NAMES for the cop lady and the Indian dude? They're obviously significant.

Off to bed to ponder this one long into the night. Yet another episode to be watched again and dissected piece by piece. Love it!!!

[brdmom]

What a great episode - and it went so fast!! I thought "Workman" was going to be driving the bus - I never expected Jin!

I have to say it is taking a HUGE suspension of disbelief that both Kate and Sun would leave their children behind to return to the island. As a mother, I can't imagine that, and Kate really has been Aaron's mother for three years. I'm guessing she gave Aaron to Claire's mother...

HOw can you read

My mother taught me

OMG THAT's AWESOME

Ben is always ready with the smart answer. I wonder if he was just trying to be funny or if his dead mother (that he could see and talk to) really did read to him when he was young.

why the hell is jin working for darma? now im just confused

[RadioDave]

OK heres my quick theory.... when Locke turns the Donkey Wheel the island was existing in our present time... so when the wheel turns, the plane is in the radius... so Jin, Sawyer, Miles, Dan and Juliet all time flash back to Dharma land... AS does the O6... which is the only way I can explain all of them ended up at the same "time" on the island.
