Now all of you Lost Season 3 haters can go STUFF IT in your PIEHOLE. I, Vanessa, Bobb, Jim, and ”insert your name here” thought this was the episode of the season, maybe the SERIES. And rightfully you should.
In case you missed it, YA DUMMY, let’s recap! But first, this episode proved to us yet again that EVERYONE is on this island for a reason and the connections are INTENSE. We thought Claire was on the island because of Aaron, well maybe. But, wow, yet another connection. Oh yeah, WE TOLD YOU SO!!
WHAT’S GOT INTO YOU CHARLIE?
Oh I don’t know CLAIRE, maybe a friggin’ hatch exploded with ME IN IT! Charlie, Desmond and Locke had something happened to them when the Pearl ex/imploded. The three of them have yet to be themselves since the explosion, and what can it be?
CLAIRE:
I don’t know even know how to say it, but this was obvious. COME ON! Lost is BRILLIANT at giving you a hint and dragging it on, like Sayid dragging his prisoners to pain in his interrogations. Lost gives a HUGE hint, then they’ll go episodes without explaining themselves, and then in time you solve it. But, a new one forms. So good.
Yes, we know Christian is Claire’s dad, but what about Aunt Lindsey. Lindsey knows more than we do, of course. She knows what Christian is REALLY capable of. Christian goes back to see Claire YEARS later after the car crash to see his daughter and Lindsey says no, we see this in SEASON 2 “Two For The Road,” what does Christian want with her then?
And, when Christian is with Claire over some delicious coffee, and Christian explains her mother is in pain. Christian was testing her, much like the Others do. Christian wanted Claire to kill her mom, see if she is capable of doing it. And she did. We don’t see it, but she does. COME ON, it’s LOST people! Claire had no choice at the end of that episode. I think Claire kills her Mom and wants to MOVE to Los Angeles, to never have to go back. Agreed? Oh, and Locke uh, hmmm, yeah, which we will get into. HOLY SHIT!
Aunt Lindsey KNOWS Christian is part of Dharma and didn’t like it, and also doesn’t like her sister with his American with a family. Who would? Christian will become a HUGE story arc soon, but when soon?
STAGES OF CLAIRE:
Black Claire: When Claire is in the car crash and says she hates her mom/wishes she was dead, she is driving a black car, has black hair, and black clothing. Also, “wish you were dead” huh? NOW CAN SHE MAKE THINGS HAPPEN? Are you serious? Juliet, Walt and now Claire huh? Maybe, just maybe?
Pure Claire – The one we see on the island, and the one who goes into her mom’s hospital room pregnant and with blonde hair at the end of the episode. Claire makes a drastic change, and the change is killing her mother to move on. YEARS go by and Claire is done seeing mom in pain. I have some thinking to do with Claire and the blonde look. It’s funny that we’ve seen her the whole time with blonde hair, but I feel I understand the Black Claire more than the blonde Claire.
LOCKE:
Killed someone!!!!!!!!!!!!! Uh!!!! Yeah. Wow! This doesn’t sound like the Locke we know. But, we don’t even know him yet! More to come on that, but first.
Locke is bad at pushing buttons on computers, but he’s still good at pushing peoples buttons on the island. NOTHING ever comes out good for John Locke. Boones death, Mr. Eko dies, Bea Klugh dies, let’s just say what Jim said to me makes the best sense. He’s a false prophet, and thinks he has the aid for everyone, but when he tries to help them, he winds up hurting them more than they could ever imagine. The ONLY person he has aided and succeeds was Ben! Which we will be getting into in the next few weeks I’m guessing.
Back to the killing! What was it that Mikhail knew that Locke needed to kill him? What is Locke really have going on inside, and in the past?
Also, what if, and I mean this, WHAT IF? Locke is in Desmond’s boat, or other way around. What if Locke is doing this all over again? Maybe he kept pushing the numbers in, and was never able to help the people around him. Locke is not enslaved to time and space, and he is able to go back to the hatch and blow it up.
So he KNOWS to kill Mikhail, because Kate maybe died, or Sayid, and word comes back to the beach that they are dead. Locke felt bad he couldn’t help since he was plugging in numbers. So he stops and now helps them. Also, he KNOWS that Ben will be in Barracks, and Jack is with them (that’s why he sets him free in Season 2, and he’ll see him again), but! The reason we seeing him stumbling on things now, is because he NEVER made it THIS far! He just kept pushing the numbers into the Pearl. He is changing things now. Please tell me I’m not crazy!
SINCE THE HATCH:
Something happened when the Pearl exploded. Desmond, Charlie and Locke all have changed in some major drastic way.
Locke – seems like we have someone who switched the tables since he got on the island. Everyone else doesn’t seem to be themselves, from the flashbacks we see. Including Locke. But since the The Pearl exploded, I think Locke is back to what he was before the island. We will see a Locke in some flashbacks that will shock the shit out of us. I have a feeling, the Locke flashbacks to come, will be no different with the Locke we see now.
Charlie – comes out of the hatch all giggly, seems to be ok with EVERYTHING. And everyone tells him what to do (Hurley, Desmond, etc). He’s not the same “I’ll do anything for you Claire” that we’ve seen in the past two seasons. When Claire flipped on him, he laughed her off, and walked off. He never has before.
Desmond – sees the future, or can relive memories? Bump on the head and turn the events the way he needs. He KNOWS Claire is in trouble and wants to be there to save her, since he couldn’t do that for Penny.
- The lightning rod was for Claire’s tent, WHO CARES about Charlie?
- Claire was in the water FULLY CLOTHED? Wasn’t going for a dip!
- Slip on the rock? Charlie would have said “let me get the bird Claire”, Claire would have been LET ME GET IT, MY IDEA CHARLIE!!!! And she would have slipped.
The thing that is going to KILL Charlie is the fact that the girl he deep down inside loved is dead. But, if what I think is true, then a HUGE part of Charlie, since the Pearl blew up, is now DEAD.
SIBLING RIVALRY:
Now that we have solved the case on Claire and Jack, who/what else is in store? What about some more siblings. Locke’s brother (MouseTrap)? Charlie’s brother? Ben’s brother? Juliet’s sister? There will be more on siblings coming up soon. I think John Locke’s brother will show up very soon, if not already! I think we have met him! Actually, I think he’s dead.
NOT ON THE LIST:
Mikhail mentions “the list”, which will be reoccurring on this show for the rest of this season, I am gathering. Jacob’s list! Mikhail has some insight on the people surrounding him.
Kate – Flawed
Sayid – Weak, and frightened
Locke – Angry
Sayid says “Don’t speak to us as if you know us”, but he does Sayid. So, we found out Mikhail was an Other, and Danielle was covering his ass. That WHOLE scene is HUGE, and then gets torn apart.
As soon as Mikhail might spill some beans, Danielle cuts him off. Cuts him off when he says “But you John Locke, you have this fleeting memory of, but I must be confused. The John Locke I knew was para…” Now! How the hell does NO ONE ever mention within seconds of him talking, ask “WAIT! WHAT?” Oh and the C-4, let’s just say, we all live in the yellow…
John Locke will be the center of attention for the next few weeks. We will find out some major flaws, but also, some of his major strengths. Only fools are enslaved by time and space!
HE ARE MARSHALL:
So Matthew Fox finally gets to play ball again, but this it’s on TV. Boys will be boys Kate, you know that. Jack has things (a piece of paper with names on it!) up his sleeve and we know that. Last time we saw him, he was exchanging glances with Juliet. They both NEED to get off that island. The Season 3 opener with Juliet crying, listening to “Downtown”, wow!
Juliet had to tell Jack, to give in to these people, become one of them, and we can plan our escape. More than meets the EYE. Get it, eye, episode openers with eyes and all, haha! No?
Great, brilliant ending. WOW!
SO NOW THEN:
Told you we NEEDED Ricky Jay to be in an episode, or Anthony Michael Hall. The final montage with Charlie reading the note, talk about Magnolia AND The Breakfast Club.
Sawyer – The Fountainhead? I’ll look more into that, once again. Damn you Sawyer and your library.
THANK YOU PAUL EDWARDS:
You have directed THREE of my favorite episodes, and keeping going on pushing Christian Shepard. “Two For The Road” was brilliant, and “What Kate Did” had the same effect this episode did. A+!
PREDICTIONS & THOUGHTS:
LOCKE – What an asshole, but we will find out why soon enough. The next flashback we have, and I say not this next week, but the one after, it won’t solve the world, but we will find out more. Producers in a podcast a HUGE Locke secret is revealed this season in a flashback.
- STOP BLOWING THINGS UP! But I have a feeling, what Rose said will stick true. He doesn’t want off this island, and that submarine that Mikhail mentioned is a great way to get off. Say goodbye to that sub! What numbers will you have to push to blow that thing up?
- Lost his legs on the pot farm. Someone from the island was there.
- Locke has done ALL OF SEASON 1 and 2 before, like Desmond can do now, since the Pearl blew.
Actually, I like what we did last week with predictions being in a separate blog and in the beginning of the week. BUT, I think I have this HUGE THEORY that I will post next week. WOW BIG, and makes a lot of sense! We tackled it somewhat in this post, so, see if you can make a connection or some sense.
THANK YOU!!! EVERYONE for making this blog so HUGE and thanks to Bobb for texting me with some huge excitement, we feel you buddy!
