I know it’s on in 1/2 hour but these were too good not to post.

When Locke & group come up on the new girl, it reminded me of when Eko & co. came up to the beach for the first time.

I missed this show.

1. See last post for initial thoughts.

2. To build on the idea of course correcting…. what if they are all meant to die, or were meant to die in the plane crash? Wouldn’t it be the perfect end of this show if the survivors get on a plane after being rescued (after the six go back to save the rest) and it crashes killing them all? If they were meant to die, fate *will* have it’s way with them.

3. Since when does the season open with a “previously on Lost…?” Season Two opened with Desmond in the hatch. Season Three opened with the Juliet book club. We always get the head scratchers so why open like a normal episode? Possibly because ABC knows that there isn’t anything else on tv and they did it for new viewers? Maybe it doesn’t mean anything at all.

4. Looks like Hurley got the car running. I would bet that Daddy didn’t have anything to do with it. I’m wondering if the money was still there. What kinds of things would Mommy Dearest have to say when he got back? She was mean… yet funny.

5. For the record, the words on the wall read, “NO SMOKING.”

6. Did you catch the writing on Charlie’s hand?

7. I’ve been thinking about why only 6 make it off the island and I have several theories. One is that they use the submarine (you know that Locke didn’t blow it up) and since space is limited, only a few could go. I also think this would explain why Hurley was so freaked out about water pouring into the police station. Or, there could be some sort of *event* back on the island that creates an emergency and only six run for it to the helicopter or boat as it’s leaving. Or, maybe there is another LIST out there and the six that leave were chosen.

8. Hurley wants to go back to the asylum. People try to change but in the end, they all go back to what they know. It’s human nature. Hurley is comfortable in that environment. Just like Jack goes back to drinking. Kate is back under control (with a man this time, not by the law) and we are yet to see what Jin & Sun and Sayid are back to. But probably a similar lifestyle to their pre-island days.

9. Kate asks why Locke would kill Naomi, “he hadn’t even met her.” Yes, why. Locke knows what Ben says is true, but how?

10. Again, if there is a List of who gets to go home, it would make sense to take Kate and Sun for further research of the fertility. Claire conceived off the island. Both Kate and Sun would have conceived on the island. Maybe *they* want to see if their babies will live since they know that the women will die on the island.

11. Just like Sawyer to sit back and watch Juliet work. Here is the scene that was supposed to be aired:

12. Matthew Abbadon or as I like to call him “Creepy Eyed Man.” Check out the info from Lostpedia:

A) In Hebrew Abaddon means “destroyer,” or “destruction”. More precisely, this name comes from the Hebrew root word aleph-bet-daled, which means “lost”.
B) In Job 26:6; Proverbs 15:11 Abbadon means “place of destruction”, or “realm of the dead”. In Revelation 9:11, it is personified as Abaddon, “Angel of the Abyss”. Many biblical scholars believe Abaddon to be Satan or the antichrist. Others argue that is a mistaken view since the angel “Abaddon” possesses the keys to the Abyss into which Satan is hurled or imprisoned, indicating that he serves as Satan’s “jailer” and must therefore be someone else.

13. So if CEM (aka: Creepy eyed man) asks if “they” are still alive, if the Oceanic 6 escaped on the sub then he could be referring to the Boat People. But, he could be wondering about the rest of the passengers of Flight 815. But why would he care unless there are more of them that are *special* (like Aaron or Walt) that *they* want.

14. As promised, here are screen caps of the chalk board and the mural in the hatch.

15. Why is everyone suddenly calling Hurley “Hugo?” Even hallucination Charlie called him by his formal name.

16. OK and what is the deal with the new “soft” Sawer? Asking Hurley if he wanted to “talk” about Charlie? He is up to something I tell ya. Remember the frog? Sawyer ended up squishing it even though you thought he was going to give it back to Hurley?

17. When Hurley comes up to Jacob’s shack you can hear the whispers. I think they are in Spanish. Anyone have the translation yet? I wonder if Locke broke the ring (salt?) around the shack because I don’t remember there being whispers when Locke first came to the shack with Ben.

18. And I thought that Jacob didn’t like the light, yet the light comes up as Hurley approaches.

19. “I’m sorry George. Just tell my sister I love her.” Couple of thoughts: maybe Penny is Naomi’s sister? That would explain why she had a picture of Penny & Desmond in her book. Maybe Naomi was blackmailed by Hanso like Juliet was. Could have been using her sister as bait.

20. They shouldn’t leave dead bodies laying around the island. I’ll get to that theory of mine in a minute.

21. Whoever is in the shack is wearing nice, white tennis shoes. All laced up.

22. This is Christian Shepherd in the shack… which brings me to my corpse theory. Remember that the Others do not bury their dead, but rather, they burn the bodies. Like for the woman who Sun shot on the boat, they were all dressed in white and they set the body afire as they sent it to sea on a raft. What if they do that because they know that disembodied Jacob can put his energy into the corpse and that is how he takes human form? We have seen Eko’s brother, who was not buried. Why else would Hurley be seeing Jack’s dad (we could speculate why Jack would see him). But if you remember back to season one, Christian’s body was gone from the coffin.

23. Now check out the eye that pops up to scare Hurley. I don’t think it’s Richard or Locke. I think it’s Jacob. I’m also including the shot of the eye from last season when Locke was in the shack.

24. Hurley has seriously grown a pair. If I saw that shack I’d be headed the other way. I wouldn’t be going up peeking in the windows. And when the creaky door opens, whew! He was brave to stand there and will it away.

25. Oy vey. I got all misty eyed when Hurley told Claire about Charlie.

26. I found my new favorite theory. I will refer to it in later posts, I’m sure, but please read this as it is very plausible and I think this person may have unlocked the whole thing. Click here: “North Pole Theory”

27. So is this guy who warns Hurley that someone is staring at him real? Or is it Hurley’s subconscious talking to him? I’ve felt guilt before but not to the extent dead people were talking to me.

28. And didn’t Charlie look great for a dead guy? Death becomes him.

29. Check out the Raven on Chalie’s shirt. Here is a link with info about the Raven. Is it possible that Jacob’s energy somehow follows them back to land? Maybe he wants to go back to the island and comes to the survivors to covince them to go back so he can get back. I’ll have to wait and see if any of the other six see dead people. Maybe that is why Jack was convinced his dad was at the hospital.

30. My sister pointed out that Hurley counts to five just like Jack does (remember the story?).

31. I couldn’t understand why no one freaked that Jack was going to shoot Locke in cold blood. I understand the Locke has been kooky, but to just shoot him between the eyes? They are both crazy.

32. Baby Aaron is crying right as Locke proclaims he has never done anything to hurt any of the survivors. Reading too much into it?

33. Live together, die alone. Maybe they shouldn’t have split into two groups.

34. It was odd to me that Rose decided not to go with Locke. She did say before that she couldn’t leave the island (because of the cancer) but will they stay with Jack? Or will they break off and stay just not with Locke?

35. Locke is defintely confused when it starts to rain. Something is not right and I’m sure we will find out what. But I was thinking that the monster was going to show up. It always seems to show up when it rains.

36. I’m really going to be interested to see why Juliet doesn’t get to go back to land. She was so desperate to get back to her sister and has done a lot to helpt he suviviors. And, the last she knew her sister was alive and well.

37. I think a big clue that the Boat People aren’t who they say they are is that instead of landing the helicopter and just rescuing them, they send in a parachuter. What can one guy do alone?

Not a spoiler.

See slow motion of the “monster.”

The best one yet. No shoes? Very interesting.

Sorry about the subtitles, but the video and audio is the best that I could find.

It’s Neil time….

I know, I’m obsessed with videos. Maybe I’m trying to fill in the gaps until February. Here is the Season 4 promo. This video quality sucks, but I couldn’t find anything better. Plus, the only new thing that I really saw was the parachuters.

I know this has been around for a bit, but I just found the video. I am thinking perhaps the flash forward of how Kate gets out of going to jail?
