Here are just a few notes and questions that came to mind when I watched this week's episode:
1. Elloise intrigues me. She is, without a doubt, little Ellie that we saw on the island during the flashing around. Faraday mentioned that she looked familiar. There are so many little subtle things about her that I love. First, she seems extremely familiar with Ben. In that I mean, she knows a lot about his personality, not just from a brief meeting or two, but as if she's known him over a long period of time. For example, when Jack asked her if Ben was telling the truth, she said "probably not" becuase she KNOWS that he lies all the time. Also, a hint of their relationship is shown when Ben makes a comment to Jack on the plane......Jack asked what is going to happen next and Ben said, "I don't know...you tell me, Jack. You're the one who got to stay after school with Miss Hawking." I know he was being sarcastic, but it made me wonder.....since Elloise was on the island long ago, she may have still been there when Ben got there. We know that's how he met Widmore...maybe Elloise was a teacher to him when he was a young boy with the Dharma Initiative. Or maybe it was after he killed them all and joined the others, since she wasn't exactly with the DI...she was with Richard and the Others. I just feel like she may have been an "elder" to him at some point in his life where he may have looked to her for knowledge and advice. It seems he goes to her whenever he needs to find a way to get back, but that may have been the first time she actually SHOWED him the Lamp Post.
2. During the scene in the Lamp Post, Elloise says that the DI had gathered proof that the island existed, but couldn't find it. How did they even know there WAS an island if they had never been there before? Unless, someone FROM the island came and told someone about it. We know that Elloise, Widmore and Richard were on the island BEFORE the DI came and were startled by soldiers and other people coming to "their" island. The relationship between the originators of the island and the FIRST people in the Dharma Initiative is very interesting. It's like the chicken and the egg.....which came first. Ben claims that it is "his" island, but he didn't go there until his dad took him with the DI. I look forward to seeing how the mysteries between these two groups unfolds. How did the Others get on the island to begin with? And, as I said, how did the DI find out about it.
3. Elloise mentions that a "very smart young man" invented the pendulum as well as the theory that the island is always moving through time. I have a feeling, once this man is revealed to us, it will be a shocker. Farraday is the only one we know who has done extensive research in time travel, but I know it doesn't really make sense that it would be him, becuase he wouldn't even have been born yet. However, he seems to have known that his Mom knew about the Lamp Post and would be able to send people, or go herself, to save him. Hmmm....I think once we have this piece of information about the man who invented these things for the DI, it will all be a lot clearer.
4. Question...once you leave the island, you only have a certain window to go back? We know it has been about 3 years since they left the island, and Elloise told Jack his window to get back would close in 36 hours. So is that the 3 year mark? Once you leave the island, do you have to go back within 3 years or else you can never get back? Just curious. I know that one of the others (I can't remember his name right now) had left the island to recruit Michael (last season I believe). Michael was surprised to see him and said, "so you guys CAN leave the island?" His answer was, "we don't get 'shore leave' very often," so he likes to enjoy it while he can. When he said that he was eating some extravagant meal. I just thought that was interesting.....he knew he would only have a certain amount of time on the "mainland" before he would have to go back to the island. So he, I'm sure, knew about his time window too.
5. Just a funny comment. When Kate was asking Jack about his dad's shoes, she said, "those don't seem appropriate for the island....maybe hiking boots would be better!" That made me think....yeah...if they KNOW they're going back to the island, why didn't ALL of them wear hiking boots, and comfortable, sturdy clothes and pack bags with bug spray and sun screen. ha ha! Instead, Jack wore a suit!! What was he thinking!
6. A not-as-funny comment about the shoes is something I thought of when Kate made the comment, "why hold on to something that makes you feel sad?" Is Kate thinking about Aaron when she says this? We still don't know what she has done with him. I don't think she would let anything happen to him.....she had shown such protection over him in the last few episodes. If anything, I think she is hiding him somewhere. He could be with someone we know......but Kate doesn't want to tell anyone. She knows that if she says a word....if Ben or anyone else even thought they knew where Aaron was, he would no longer be safe. Soooo....it'll just be her little secret for the time being....
7. I loved all the similarities on the plane too. Sayid was in handcuffs, as Kate had been the first time. Hurley was reading a comic book and carrying a guitar case, like Walt an Charlie. Etc. Etc. ..we could go on for qutie some time with these similarities.
8. I REALLY LOVED that Ben was reading Ulysses on the plane. I have a quote from author James Joyce about his own book. I remembered it from one of my classes and looked it up....Joyce once said that he'd put in "so many enigmas and puzzles that it will keep the professors busy for centuries arguing over what I meant" in order to attain "immortality." That's EXACTLY like this darned show. There are so many literary and biblical references, mysteries, similarities, and CLUES, that even long after the show is over, I'm SURE we'll be arguing about it. ha ha!
9. As Julie mentioned, I do think that Ben went to kill Penny. He said "I made a promise to an old friend of mine...just a loose end to tie up." He had promised Widmore that he was going to kill his daughter. He also knows that 1) he is about to go back to his island and doesn't know when he will return and that 2) Desmond is in town. He knows that Desmond would not have come alone, and that he and Penny had been in hiding. She would be easy to find, as Desmond just left the church and he could go to the docks and find them. I don't have a clue, however, as to what happened that he was all bloody. Maybe Desmond was there already and fought him off. Maybe Penny put up a fight. Either way, we don't know. If he DID in fact succeed in killing Penny, that would be an excellent reason for Desmond to go back to the island. Elloise did say that the island was not finished with him. Hmmm.....
10. This note concerns Kate, Hurley, and Sayid, the three who absolutely did NOT want to have anything to do with going back to the island. We know Kate did something with Aaron. But, it is entirely possible that someone went to her in the night to convince her to go back and offer to help her with Aaron. All we know is that SOMETHING or SOMEONE changed her mind about everything. We also know that Hurley had his mind changed by someone or something that may have happened. The third person, Sayid, was not changed...he was merely arrested and forced to be on the plane. He was genuinely surprised to see everyone there, especially Ben. He couldn't say anything becuase of the cop escorting him, but he obviously was not there on purpose. So who went to Kate and Hurley. As I mentioned, in #1, Elloise intrigues me. She was extremely upset at the beginning when Ben brought only a couple of people with him. She said to Ben, "I thought I said ALL of them. Well, it'll do for now...let's get started." What did she mean, FOR NOW? Did she go to one, or both, of them that night to try to convince them? I have a feeling she is an awful lot more than what she seems. (Remember, she was in the flashes back and forward in time, when Desmon tried to change his future. How on EARTH did she do that? I mean, I know people can travel through time in their own bodies, but how did she travel with him? weird....) Also, Hurly may have been visited yet again by Charlie. He seemed at peace with the idea of going back and even bought all the plane tickets so he didn't drag any extra people down with him. The only thing that finally upset HIM was when he saw Ben get on the plane. Maybe Charlie said it had to ONLY be them....maybe he thought Ben would make things go all wrong. I can't to find out what changed their minds.
11. As for HOW they got back onto the island. I dont' think Ben had anything to do with it....but I do think that he KNEW Jack needed to read that letter. That's why he kept asking about it. He also gave that little speech about believing. Ben, himself, has left the island and gone back at least a few times that we know of. He must be familiar with HOW to get back. However, it seems that Jack needed to recreate his emotional connection with his dead father on the first plane ride in order to get back. When his father died, Jack DID blame himself. Remember, he was the one who ratted his father out for drinking on the job. His Dad went to Australia and got himself killed while he was there. Jack always blamed himself. In this case, he was unsure of whether Locke's death was his fault. It seems that the note assured him that it WAS his fault. It read, "Jack, I wish you had believed me" or something like that. So maybe if Jack had believed him the first time, and not waited until he was dead, Locke would never have had to kill himself. As soon as Jack got into that, "it's my fault he's dead" mindset, the light began to flash and they were back on the island. That was his way of recreating the experience. I'm still curious what Christian's role on the island is. Did he exist there before Jack got there? Is he Jacob? I thought maybe Jacob just took on different appearances for different people....however, he told Locke, "say hello to my son" so obviously he is still himself and not just a face on Jacob. That part is all very strange. Then that also brings Claire into the picture. The last time we see her, she follows Christian into the woods and then we see with him in the cabin. Is she dead? Is she still on the island? Hmm.....
Okay, I think that's all for this episode. Is that enough for you Julie. You asked me to blog, so TAKE THAT!!! I'll bet your eyes are crossing while you're reading all this. :-D

Awesome.
Let me just start by saying that this week's episode rocked.
For one, it was really well done. I loved the opening shot of Jack's eye as he woke up in the jungle. I loved the subtle similarities between waiting in the airport for the Ajira flight and waiting for the original Oceanic flight (Hurley reading a comic book like Walt did, Sayid in handcuffs like Kate was, etc.). I loved the symbolism and literary/biblical references that Julie mentioned. I loved everything about it.
As for some questions we need answered now:
- What on earth did Kate do with (to?) Aaron? She looked so freaked out when she was laying on Jack's bed that my immediate thought was that she killed him. Not sure if she has that in her (although she did kill her father), but that was my first thought.
- What was Ben's "loose end" that he needed to tie up? And who beat his face into a bloody pulp? I really like the theory that he went to kill Penny (and I feel a bit sheepish that it didn't occur to me). It makes sense though, and that would give Desmond a reason to go back to the island, since right now he seems pretty intent on never going back.
- Was Ben really supposed to be on that plane? I was probably reading too much into it, but he seemed to have a guilty look about him as he got on the plane at the last minute. Plus, he seemed to be flat out lying to people throughout the episode (e.g., when Jack asked him if he had known about the Lamp-Post). He wasn't on the original Oceanic flight - does that matter?
- Now that Jack and co. back on the island, will the flashes stop? Are they in the same time as Sawyer, Juliet, etc.?
- Who is the guy who told Jack he was sorry that his friend had died? I don't doubt that we'll see him again, especially since he was the only non-Oceanic 6 person sitting in that part of the plane (besides Ben and Sayid's cop lady).
- What did Sayid do to end up in handcuffs? And why would he be going to Guam?
- Jin is part of the Dharma Initiative now? Heh?
And now for a couple theories...
- Ben mentioned that Locke has to take the place of Christian on the Ajira flight (since Christian was in the coffin on the Oceanic flight). Jack's visit to his grandfather seemed like a somewhat random scene (since, to my knowledge, we hadn't met his grandfather before). There doesn't seem to be any such thing as coincidence in LOST, so why would they throw that scene in there? Jack could have easily gone to his mother's house to get something of his dad's to put in Locke's coffin. Plus, when Jack mentioned that he might be going away for a while, it almost seemed like his grandfather knew what was going on. Maybe this whole island thing extends farther back in Jack's family than we had realized.
- The writers made quite the effort to recreate the original conditions of the Oceanic flight, but what about the pregnant chick? I'm thinking Kate might be pregnant. Think about it. It would help recreate that aspect of the original flight. She and Jack had just gotten "reacquainted." She's clearly upset about whatever happened with Aaron, so she may be wanting to fill that void. Aaaand it would make for some interesting drama if/when she reunites with Sawyer on the island. Yep, Kate is preggers. You heard it here first.
Can't wait until next week to hear about Bentham's death.

holy cow, what an ep
so one thing inspired by the premiere:Padding self on back for that one- this episode had nothing if not signs of the locke-jesus link.
symbolism-tastic- locke seems to be set up as a christ-like savior. richard tells locke that he must die. ben believes that, in order to save everyone, they have to bring locke back to the island and (there's clearly the assumption) he will be brought back to life as a result (resurrected). also found it interesting that all of the time stamps used in the episode were three years...three years, three days- what's the difference in lost time.
- title of the episode was 316= John 3:16
- the whole doubting thomas scene
- i wish you have believed note
- locke being a proxy for christian shepherd.
I maintain that the widmore-ben showdown (that may include ben killing penny) will be a season 6 event. but it also occured to me that widmore might have another daughter and it's this person who ben will kill... for instance, people have wondered if maybe charlotte is widmore's daughter (who is now dead- due, in part, because ben got the island off kilter).
UPDATE: so i'm re-watching the episode and noticed that before ben says he needs to go tie things up and whatnot, jack finds him praying and then he lights a votive candle...interesting set up indeed. because then he stops to tell jack that jack is doubting thomas before going and doing something that leaves him all bloody. now, i'm wondering if (instead of trying to kill penny) ben did something to aaron- esp given that kate is acting all weird the entire ep.
anyways, tons of big questions, fun literary/biblical references ("The Lamp-Post is a reference to the street lamp that lights the way into Narnia in The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe.") and revelations to deal with. I hope everyone will contribute their own take/observations from this episode. ok, break!

Wacky Wednesdays....
So, I'm very excited for Lost tonight. Last week didn't have too many surprises....
Eloise is Faraday's mom.....we figured that......
Charlotte has been on the island before....we already knew that because she was the FIRST to get a nose bleed.....
Faraday talked to Charlotte when she was a girl.......this was not really a shock seeing as how we already know he can travel in time and that he's in love with her. Makes sense, right? Wouldn't you go back to save the woman you love? The only issue I have with this is.....if his mom is Eloise, the woman who WARNED Desmond that he can NOT change the future no matter what he tries to do, then why wouldn't Faraday know that? That's TWICE now that he has tried to tamper with things....the first time he did it by giving Desmond a new memory and then he tries to save Charlotte. Interesting.....you would think with a mom like that he would know better.
As for Jin and Sun.......of COURSE, Jin is alive.......of COURSE Sun is gonna go back and get him........I guess she'll be leaving that deliciously adorable daughter of hers in Korea since she's already with Ben and the rest of them in LA.
Overall, it was a good episode...but all it did was confirm all the things we already suspected. The next step, of getting back to the island, is going to be the MOST interesting. I mean, seeing how Ben and Locke got off the island was crazy, so I've been waiting...and waiting....to see how they're going to get back.
It was all leading up to that moment last week, when it just ended. POOP! So, I am anxiously awaiting tonight's episode to see how they get back.
Also, Ben was supposed to bring ALL of them to go back to the island and we're still missing Kate, Hurley, Sayid and tehcnically Sun's daughter and Aaron, since they were both on the island too. How will they get the rest of them to the island now??? Hmmmm......

Thoughts on episode 3
I loved this last episode. The scene with Sawyer watching Kate deliver Claire's baby was pretty powerful, and I usually don't care too much for that whole love story bit. Bringing back a pregnant Rousseau was a nice touch too.
I totally didn't see the whole Jin thing coming. Like Julie, I don't at all understand a) how he could have survived the freighter explosion, or b) how he was within the island's radius when it disappeared. If you think about it, the helicopter carrying Jack, Kate, Sun, etc. was headed back towards the island when the freighter exploded. So how could Jin be within the island's radius when he was farther away from the island than the helicopter?
The more I think about it, the more confused (confusined?) I am by the difference in time on the island vs. the mainland. Initially, I was thinking that 3 days on the island was the equivalent of 3 years off the island (a clever ploy used by the writers when they decided they wanted Walt - who clearly has aged physically since leaving the island - to come back and make some cameos?). But, that can't be possible, since the scenes we're seeing in LA are happening after Locke is dead (and in the scenes we're seeing on the island, Locke is obviously alive and well). So, I think I've given up trying to figure out the timing of things. At this point, it's hard enough to keep track of everything that happens, period.
Two questions I'm interested in getting the answer to:
1. Why did Sayid stop working for Ben?
2. How is Ben going to convince Sun that Jin is still alive?
Looking forward to tomorrow night!

confusined
that's my new word for how this episode left me. really, it was just a typo, but I'm going with it.
soo much in this one to try and unpack.
Jin! whoa, that shocked the crap out of me. So it looks like it's 18 years ago island time and Jin (since he can speak English) survived the freighter explosion, was within the radius and is on the same time with faraday, locke, juliet and company.
Questions:
Was Jin the only survivor of the freighter explosion? How on earth was he within the radius?
What is the deal with Sun and Hurley's visit to his grave? When they visit, is Jin dead? Or is he alive, and they don't know that? Basically, when did that happen?
Bringing this to my chief and larger question: How does time on the island relate to time off the island? Are we to assume that the events are happening simultaneously or what? It seems that 3 years have elapsed off the island but on the island we're still dealing with days. *brain ache*
So Ben wants to get a blood test on kate to prove what he already knows- that aaron is not kate's son. this is his plan to get kate to go back? i think jack could have convinced her and she may have gone back for sawyer anyways.
All the nose-bleeding has got to stop. It's just gross. Some people are saying it's due to previous exposure to the island and Charlotte and Miles are affected because they've been to the island before (or even born on it)?
I'm very curious what the deal is with Ajira Airways.

Sawyer's Nick Name Generator
If you guys haven't seen it, you can do a quick game called
"Sawyer's Nick Name Generator."
It tells you what nick name Sawyer would give you if you were on the island with them. It's actually pretty funny. You just answer a couple of questions about yourself and bam, there's your nick name!
My nick name is Dr. Quinn. ha ha ha ha ha!
Make sure if you find out your nick name that you post yours under the comments section!

I have issues with considering locke a "christ-like" figure becuase he is NOT alone in being the leaders of the others. We know that Ben was also their leader and we are led to believe that Richard was once their leader too. Richard says that their leaders are carefully chosen...from birth. We also know that Richard, taking locke's advice, visits him on the day of his birth, then revists him a few years later to "test" him to see if he belongs with their people. Locke fails the test and they leave him, even though he ends up on the island some day anyways.
When Daniel said "all of us" are going to die, I think he was referring to EVERYONE on the island, from BOTH times. We know that richard doesn't age, but I imagine even an h-bomb would do him some damage. But Daniel knows that if they die, in ANY of the times, they will cease to exist in all the others, including the future.
The young Charles was a bit of a hot-head and had no problem killing his friend for giving away information. I'm just curious how they all (in their youth) came to be on the island to begin with. Richard makes it appear that it is THEIR island and other people from the outside world came to invade it. Does that mean that widmore and ellie and the others were BORN on the island? I thought babies couldn't be born there if the woman was impregnated on the island? So they must have also been BROUGHT to the island.
Or, option 2 is that they used to be able to be safely born on the island until more recently and when they started having issues, they brought Juliet there to help. If they had ALWAYS had those problems, I imagine they would have brought someone to figure it out long before.
One last thought...the island is supposed to have healing powers for those who live there and especially those who are "special," like locke. Locke could walk again, but he also healed AMAZINGLY fast after being shot all the way through. If Ben is supposed to also have some great tie with the island, since he was chosen to be their leader, why is he not effected by the island in that way? Remember, he developed a tumor on his spine while on the island? We still don't know how on earth that happened. Just something to keep in mind.
I can't WAIT to find out "the way off the island" as Richard says it is privileged information. We know Ben gets off, and quite a few of the others, AND we know that Locke leaves. So there obviously is a pretty simple way. Hmmm.....
