They started a little earlier and they gave us 2 episodes on premiere night, so they need a couple breaks (there's another 1-week break in late April) to air the finale during sweeps week.

That depends. Did I give the prediction that the final episode will be Jack and Locke, side-by-side, waging the infamous alluded to war, riding laser-mounted polar bears?

I thought I mentioned that.

The thing about Juliet is sometimes she looks "haggered" and other times (last night fore example) she looks great. Jacks gotta be mad, Juliet's looking better than Kate recently.

I liked how she made Kate squirm by almost leaving her off the sub list. She does not like Kate.

I was very happy to think that Jack and Sawyer were going to have a long chat about everything that's happened in 3 years to everyone, how they came back, etc... then it turns into, "It's my turn to run things!" "Great! Bye!" and Jack wandering off. Sure, Jack can be relieved not to be under the pressure of leader and go-to guy... but share some intel people!

Knew it from the second I saw the preview last week, but way to go Sayid. Of course, the sh*t has hit the fan full force now.

So... does that mean that the Island brings Ben back to life later... hmm....

I do recall Ben having a conversation with Locke about how Ben used to be the special one.

Well, if the previous timeline is still the real timeline, we may want to assume that Ben lives. He doesn't look dead, but I don't know how anyone can survive that.

Maybe the others save him?

I feel that we should not be amazed at all, at the fact that Ben survived.

What Faraday has basically stated in the show, is that the only one that can change time is Desmond, which is why Faraday even bothered to talk to him.

This might be the turning point for young Ben, seeing as he was betrayed by someone he was trying to help. I assume Ben's puppy love will come see him at the hospital, and the story continues from there.

I find it suspicious that Sayid would fire a non-fatal shot. At this point in the island's timeline it seems very normal, babies can be born, people die without reincarnation... I wonder what causes all the mojo.

However, after his recovery I can't really see young Ben running off to join the hostiles.

I'm surprised Sayid didn't follow-up with a head shot as he ran by. All his other kills, I believe he shot at least twice.

We learned Sayid was a sloppy killer when he didn't check if Keamy was properly dead.

That or the LOST writers are just annoying.

That's what I said. It's like, "Dude, your gun is already pointed at his head. Just pull the trigger!"

He was killing a kid. That's not exactly the same as killing an adult, no matter how evil they become later in life.

It does make the whole Sayid torturing Ben in the present more interesting.

Another good episode. We find out what happened with Aaron. Ben is taken to Richard. Richard takes Ben to Jacob (presumably). Ben wakes up in present time with Locke looking over him. Locke=Jacob?

Not the first half, but always the last 2 minutes because it gets over at 10:02. My wife records the show right after Lost so it doesn't really matter. I do have my DVR set to record 2 minutes past though, just in case the other show isn't on.

I like some of the insight into the character. Sent to kill a woman, he couldn't because she has a baby, so he steals it. Later, he sacrifices it for his life. Then, he sets out to kill the daughter of the man responsible and doesn't because she has a baby.

Man, If I were going up against Ben I'd be walking around with a protective baby vest from here on out.

I think Farrday knows pretty much everything!

Another great episode. Seeing the Hatch being built was cool and the serial numbers being stamped on. Lots of Miles' backstory. Confirmation that Chang is his dad.
