It seems like finally we might be getting some answers in this season right? I regret to inform you, this blog, mmm not too funny. There really isn’t too much irony being dropped on us at this point in the show, right? It seems as if the show is finally making some headway, revealing some answers, and getting to a point. Let’s begin shall we. As Sun gets ready to bum-rush the group with her almighty gun, she gets interrupted by a phone call from Korea from her 3 year old daughter. Sun even goes as far as to tell her daughter that she has a friend for her to play with next time she sees her, of course referring to Aaron. Ewwww creepy, a little bit of Kate is rubbing off on Sun there don’t you think. Just as Sun is about to pull the trigger in my friend Ben’s face, he decides to hit Sun with some knowledge. He tells her Jin is alive. Naturally she does not believe him all the meanwhile Kate is going loco gets Aaron and tells Jack and Ben to leave her alone and hightails it out of there. Sayid at this point wants nothing to do with Ben and Jack and warns it will be rather unpleasant if they should ever meet again. Umm I hope Jack and Ben listened to him because You Don’t Mess with the Sayid!
Back on the Island, Jin realizes (without his brain melting) that he has traveled back in time when he realizes he is meeting a 16 years younger version of Rousseau. I should seen it coming that all her French Douchebag Buddies would bite the big one since they appear to be useless and arrogant (like the French). However, at least we got some insight as who Alex’s father is right? As Jin is looking for Sun on the Island (which she obviously is not around) the Frogs decide to look for the infamous Radio Tower to try and transmit a signal off the Island. Unfortunately, they are interrupted by ‘The Monster.’ The Monster one by one picks them off first with the line-less Nadine and then off to King of the French Pricks who I believe remains nameless. As ‘The Monster’ attempts to suck Mr. Asshole into his underground lair, I feel a perfect ‘Saw’ moment approaching. The Frogs are trying to save him and BOOM! ‘The Monster’ sucks him hence forcing his friends to rip his arm clean off. Awesome! I actually wished it would have been his entire body. And like a bunch of morons, all but Rosseau go in and try to save French Bastard #1. Cue the first time flash. Jin is what seems to be days or even weeks later and finds the decaying arm next to him. He heads toward shore to find their camp and some of the French guys who went into ‘The Monster’s’ lair shot and killed. And now here is Rosseau pointing a gun at her baby’s daddy. Apparently, ‘The Monster’ has fucked with their heads and now it seems to be a 28 Days Later situation. Gun fired, baby’s daddy dead! You know I am convinced ‘The Monster’ is The Keeper of the Island.” It saved Locke by not killing him in Season 1 but only attempts to harm those who bring hate and death, or just a bad attitude to the Island. Rock on ‘Monster.” I digress, sorry. Rosseau finds Jin and tries to kill him thinking ‘The Monster’ has made him sick too. Cue time flash #2, and Jin finds Sawyer and the rest of the camp, and finally a happy moment in ’LOST’ yet again.
Now the time flashes seem to progress quicker and more frequently. Jin finds out Sun is off the Island. Juliette and Sawyer get more nosebleeds. And Charlotte, sad to say but not really, is on her way out. I had a feeling this was the episode she was going to die and she surely does. But not before the rest find the Orchid and Jin makes Locke promise not to bring Sun back. This was all due to Charlotte’s one and only uttered ramblings of hysteria for some reason making sure Jin understands that Sun cannot ever come back and that ’This Place is Death (hence the title).’ If Sun were to ask of Jin, Jin gave Locke his wedding ring and made sure he gave it to Sun proving Jin was dead. One last piece of useful information Charlotte’s decides to privately divulge to Faraday in a moment of clarity was revealing to Faraday that she was born on the Island and a man who looked just liked Faraday had forbidden her to ever come back. That is when Faraday tells Charlotte not to die because he sent Desmond out to find Faraday’s mum who apparently is the key to entire bid! Too late Charlotte dies, wah! Back to the story, Locke gave Jin his word and as he slides down the rope to the bottom of the Island-moving mechanism, and yet another time flash occurs, Locke falls, and attains a compound fracture in his shin. Damn, the Island is brutal huh? Giving a compound fracture in the leg to a man you just healed that used to be in wheelchair, ouch!!! The flash occurs the hatch is sealed and Locke is alone only to find, that’s right Jack’s dad Dr. Shepard just as he was in Jacob’s house waiting for him. Dr. Shepard was nice enough to clue the audience into the fact that O.G. Other Apleton may actually not have the answers and can in fact be wrong about everything he has been telling Locke. With a severely broken leg and no help from Dr. Shepard, Locke turns the mechanism, end scene.
Back in Los Angeles (Honolulu), Sun is holding a gun to Ben’s head as he is driving her to the very proof of Jin being alive which is consequently keeping Ben alive. Jack has a moment of pussy-ness and apologizes to Sun for leaving Jin behind on the tanker. Apparently, Jack is pretty pissed at Ben after finding out that Ben was responsible for going after Aaron, Kate’s fake baby. Of course these morons are too dumb to realize it was attempt to get Kate to come back to the Island. Ben flips out and has had it and let’s the dumbasses know everything he is doing is in an effort to save the Oceanic 6 and the people on the Island. However, what is left untold is, what is Ben’s stake in this exactly? It is left a little bit unanswered. But they arrive at the church, the church with answers. Ben gives the ring that Locke had from Jin to Sun. Ben explains the woman in the church, Eloise Hawkin, can get them all back to the Island, and that they need to go back in order to keep the Islanders alive. And sure enough, right on time, is Desmond, looking for Faraday’s mum, and is in fact Eloise Hawkin. They all go in. And short a of ‘The Six,” Eloise says it will have to do and is ready to get started. End episode.
ENJOY A BROKEBACK MOMENT ON ‘LOST:’
Let’s Talk in the Future-Tense Shall We?
1. So now we know why Rosseau has been all alone all these years when the Islanders find her.
2. I have a feeling Faraday is going to try to bring back Charlotte in some time-travelling manner.
3. I assume we are left to believe that now that Locke moved the Island, there will be no more time flashes?
4. It appears that Dr. Shepard has shown himself yet again, but where is Claire?
5. I hope Desmond does not end up going to the Island, that was never part of the deal right.
6. Eloise Hawkin, who is she to the Island? She could be the one behind the Dharma Initiative from the start.
7. When is someone going to slap the sense back into Kate, make Sayid a believer again, and get Hurley off the Hot Pockets?
8. So where the hell is Locke if he is already off the Island and dead.
9. And how did he give Jin’s ring to Ben, if he is dead.
10. So no one is concerned that Kate, Aaron, Sayid, and Hurley are not there when it is time to go back. Isn’t that going to mess things up pretty bad?
