Blogging while watching LOST: Exposé
Nikki had a sugar daddy. That was as easy to buy as her being a stripper… even though that was a role she played as an actress.
And she’s… dead. I think most of us can agree with Sawyer. “Who the hell is Nikki?” Well, Nikki, we hardly knew you.
Paulo too? Interesting.
Nice to see Shannon and Boone again. They do strike you as a couple instead of step-siblings at first!
It took me a minute to figure out whether they had inserted Nikki into footage from the pilot episode or if they had re-shot it, but it would appear to be a combination of both. Some of the scenes were obviously spliced, but we got a different angle for the guy getting sucked into the engine, and Boone’s hair is definitely at his new longer length.
I would assume that, since Nikki and Paulo are both dead only 20 minutes in, we’ll find out what was in that bag that was worth killing the sugar daddy for.
Yay Arzt! So after “The Other 48 Days,” it’s nice to see more of our redshirts-with-names in this flashback montage.
Oh come on… are they really going to find out all of the island’s secrets before the rest of the Losties? The Nigerian plane? The Pearl? Ridiculous. Suspension of belief is one thing… LOST gets a wide berth there. This seems a little much, though.
Gratuitous wet Brazilian scene.
Great reveal scene with Paulo skulking in the Pearl with Ben and Juliet! So now we know for sure… they only wanted Kate and Sawyer as emotional blackmail to get Jack to do the surgery. There was no other reason. The Others did not want to impregnate Kate. It was an elaborate setup for manipulation. And Paulo knew about it!
Charlie and his need for confession. Oh dear. If I were Sun, I don’t know whether I’d want to know or not.
Diamonds. Eight million dollars worth of diamonds. Well, at least that could be viewed as worth killing someone for, if you’re a criminal with no regard for human life. I really didn’t want it to be something stupid like Kate’s little toy plane.
Oh my God. “I’m paralyzed.” That was horrifying to watch. Buried alive. I hope I’m not going to have nightmares. That was… terrible.
