I like how they're bringing in some weird elements without going all-out sci-fi.

Liked the orientation video.. "never put metal in the time-travelling microwave" just as Ben is loading it with the stuff.

Best quote of the season:

 
Quote
Locke: Was he talking about what I think he was talking about?
Ben: If you mean time-travelling bunnies, then yes.

Keamy was very badass, I'm glad he got a fight scene with Sayid before he went. His actual death was a bit surprising in comparison, Ben took him out really quickly.

The end scene was a nice twist... I was almost certain it was going to be Ben, even though I really didn't want it be. And it wasn't! Wait, it was Locke.. that's almost as bad.  :hmpf:

Wondering how season 5 is going to play out now.. seems like the freighties are going to become major characters in the on-island scenes.. the "sawyer, juliet, bernard and rose plus whatever the hell happened to claire show" wouldn't be so interesting. As for the off-island stuff, I'm wondering where they'll pick up the timeline from.

I was really hoping we'd get to see the temple this season. The weird ancient ruins in ben's house and in the orchid.. want some more info on the island's history.

I think the most distressing part of this episode was knowing who was on the boat when it blew up. For example, I don't think Dan had gotten to the boat with his last raftload yet, had he? I'll rewatch the episode to make sure. Also, weren't Rose and Bernard on the boat?

Neither Rose or Bernard were on the boat, and no, Dan had not gotten back with the next boatload infact he is now stranded in an ocean with no boat to go to, or an island to go back to. Poor Dan  :(

Chay, Ben is not horrible.  He is amazing.  I watched the episode with my mom, and when Ben killed the army dude and said "so", she was horrified to know that I totally agreed with Ben.  He is the best character ever, and I think he is totally the good guy.

Maybe that's why they kept some, and trained them to use complex levers and things.
One polar bear must be cheaper than a super strong team of monkeys!

Also, it's cold down near the wheel - so the trained bears are more suited to island-moving than monkeys.

I'm guessing the same way that ben used to.

@Josh/Guy who stole Prowla's Avy:
Mmm, Dan is floating about the sea with no where to go  :(

@BDC:
Jeremy Bentham. At first i thought it was an anagram, but it's a real person... Also, it was Locke...

@Ben:
Heh, as funny as the Lever pushing polar bears sound... it's probably true.

@Amy:

wow .. what a season finale!

-I seriously doubt that Jin is really dead.. in a less grade same with Michael..

-Cool! the Island is equiped with Galactica's FTL drive!

-So the mysterious "J" letter in the papper Jack holded in season 3 finale was Locke after all.. that raises many questions that i asume will be answered in the following 2 seasons

-What happened to Dan and the people on the Zodiak? is everyone else aboard the freighter dead?

-Who is that mysterious bald man who pursues Harley and visited Locke when he was in wheel chair?

Ben summed it up himself where he's got to do things by emotionally detaching himself from them to be a good leader.

Ohhh yeah! You're right!

 
Quote

That's right, I forgot that's how she came into the story...

I really didn't see it coming with Locke being in the coffin. I mean, I didn't WANT to think about it either. Of course I'm hoping it was Ben but that'd be too simple, glad to see him jump up behind Jack, much to my surprise. Small throw away by the name change - doesn't seem like it was necessary now that we know it was Locke, unless this will tie into a whole sequel fill in where we find out why he had to change his name and how he came to leave the island and die?

 
Quote
Could she be Ben's doll buddy perhaps?
Huh?

 
Quote
and no, Dan had not gotten back with the next boatload infact he is now stranded in an ocean with no boat to go to, or an island to go back to. Poor Dan
Yeahhhhh poor Dan!  :( Hope he has enough gas to get back to the island...

Dan is still hiding something though. He knows something we don't. Something big.

I found it interesting how the island "plooped" out of the water. heh I wasn't sure what I was going to expect, maybe a fizzle or lifting, but it literally went underwater PLOOP!
So... where does it go to? Who decides its new location? Is it completely random?
And then: How the heck are they going to GO BACK to the island when they don't know where it is now??

Also, is this the end of the line for Penny & Desmond? Their little saga is essentially over, right? They found eachother.. love love love etc. Well, with the exception of her father, of course.
Hm I guess Ben is technically out to kill her to get back at Whidmore. Right? Shit, okay...

ohhhhh WHY will it be so long before the next season!?!

They didn't make it back to the freighter. They were still on the zodiac when it went kablewey. We think so anyway... I highly doubt they got all the way there. Anyone standing on that freighter is most surely dead. There was enough plastic explosives to blow up a 747, apparently.

The black guy? Jacob in a different form. See Chay's link below. He's right. Abaddon had some hand in the creation of the four-man team that arrived on the Island

Did that to Sun?  He didn't do that to her.  Yah, the boat exploded.  Ben didn't put the explosives there.  He didn't hire the mercenaries.  He killed a man who killed his daughter.  I find that to be very understandable.  Did you see Ben when Alex was killed?  Plus, incase you forgot - Jin isn't dead.   

Plus, you are acting like the boat wouldn't have exploded anyways.  That guy had NO way off the island, and from previous behavior he clearly doesn't give a crap about anyone but himself.  He would have blown it up anyways.   

I think someone said that Sun wanted to work with Penny's dad because she blamed Ben.  How could she?  How could she know that it was his fault the boat blew up.  They knew Michael was on the boat working for Ben.  Michael knew that the crazy guy put the bomb there, not Ben.  So it's probable that she knew that too.

I'm sick of people thinking Ben is the bad guy.  He really has not done anything buy protect his home.  Yes, it may be in a more violent and drawn out matter, but I know I would do things that are just as horrible to protect my family.

You are forgotting about the rest of the boat crew and the three redshirts evacuated to it..
plus..as far as Ben knew everyone was evacuating to the freighter.. including the Helicopter wich should have been there


BTW: Im the only one who thinks that Jack's father being the same as Claire's father is going too far in the mess?

BTW2: I looked at the boat explosion frame by frame.. in the last shot where Jin was seen waving his arms you could see the crew about to evacuate in red lifejackets.. in the shot of the explosion you cant see the red jackets or either jin and there is some clear frames of the boat ..
yes.. i know they may simply use a CGI model with no people on it and thats it like in "old" movies they used models wich didnt contained "scaled people".. but this is Lost after all.. nothing is just cassual

PD: I asume that anyone who reads this have seen the finale so i dont use the spoiler tag..

That whole running around alive while Sun is having her baby thing?  There was nothing in that episode that indicated that Jin was in a flashback while Sun in a flash forward. 

Javier: Again, Ben was protecting his home, his family.  I would have done the same thing.  Jack and Claire being related is not going too far.  Not with all the random connections we've already seen.  Besides, that was known like during the second season.

Also, about that one lady being the little girl from Ben's past.  Didn't she die?  I remember during that episode thinking "aww please don't kill his little girlfriend" and then feeling sad when I saw her dead.

As i said before when Michael went killing innocent people only to get Waltz release.. in your view you can destroy the entire damn mankind and issolate yourself .. that way you will be safe..at least from humans..

I know i will not blow up a boat full of mostly innocent people to save my family ..

Hmmm, pretty sure Ben didn't destroy mankind.  Besides, you don't exactly think "hey Im going to blow up an entire boat if I kill this dude" when you are filled with rage and anger because of the death of someone you love.  How the hell can you argue against this.  Unless you have been in a somewhat similar situation, you would have no idea what it feels like.

Because thats when you have an ansiety crisis

PD: Besides.. nobody more than me wanted that asshole dead..he killed one of the best Lost characters .. Rosseau.. and worst he killed her in a stupid, unglamorous, and idiotic way ..and two teenagers..
But is Ben..he is more smart than that ..he is callculator ..he simply didnt care and he knew full the consecuences

The explosion was disappointing. I thought it would have been way bigger, especially when (Desmond?) said "it was enough to blow up an airplane carrier". Also, wouldn't the pressure wave hit the chopper?

The problem with the explosion was that half the boat didnt blow up.  As they were flying away you could see half the damn boat, the part jin was on, still floating and not on fire.

Sawyer was busy riding the surf. I doubt it.

Jin was in a flashback while Sun was in a flashforward. The way they were edited together was to make it look like they were in the same timespace, but it was a red herring which we discovered at the end of the episode.

I really hope you're not being serious. Sigh!! Incase you are though... it's Locke.

I believe everyone on the freighter is dead. And even if he did survive, the Oceanic 6 are left believing he really is dead anyway. Explains why Sun really mourns his death, and not just leaving him.

do you get podcasts in Australia? You should check out the ones about Lost, I think you'd enjoy 'em.

There's an official one, and a fan one (with recaps, and theories and junx) but I guess it's sorta the end of the season, so bad timing.

Now some random tidbits:

from the article about explosion physics
 
Quote
We also finally got to see who was in the coffin that had Jack so torn up in last season's flash-forward finale. It was Jeremy Bentham—named for an 18th century philosopher who managed to preserve his head after he died


Fun fact from the lostpedia: Matthew Abbadon (black wheelchair pushing guy, attorney that visited Hurley) is an anagram of "what bad boatmen"

And finally one more question: the name on that coat Ben was wearing, Halliwax, it's dr Candle
