Blogging While Watching LOST: The Economist
“N. I’ll always be with you. R. G.” That’s the inscription on the inside of Naomi’s bracelet.
Is Sayid getting off the island now? That seems too easy.
Sayid plays golf, and is good enough to be a betting man about it. And apparently it’s not too easy. Sayid really does get off the island. And this golfing guy - whoa! Sayid just shot him! As Hurley would say…. DUDE!
Sayid’s picking up chicks in Berlin. With a disposable cell phone. My husband thinks he’s a bounty hunter.
Sawyer seems to have picked up Sayid’s penchant for torture. Blowing Ben’s toes off.
And Jacob’s cabin is gone. Perhaps Jacob no longer wants to deal with Ben or Locke. I think the cabin may actually be where Hurley last saw it… or at least somewhere where Hurley goes and is not followed by Ben or Locke. That’s my “theory.”
Miles is so classy. Naomi was hot and he liked her accent.
I do not like Sayid’s hair all long and icky.
What payload was Regina supposed to be shooting over to Dan? He didn’t seem concerned about being harmed. Whatever it was, it didn’t make it. More mysterious island properties.
“What’s with the swingset? These people have daycare?” LOL.
Poor Hurley, bound and gagged in New Otherton. Well, that would explain why he would tell Jack he was sorry he went with Locke. I’m losing hope about Sawyer making it off the island to be with Kate. (No!)
“Oh, awesome. The ship’s got its own Sawyer.” LOL, Hurley re: Miles.
Payload made it. It just… took a little longer. THAT’S IT! Time moves faster off the island than it does on the island! Sweet! Although the timing of that cut off any reply from Frank when Jack mentions he’s been on the island for 100 days.
Oh look, Ben’s got a secret passage behind his bookcase. He’s like the island’s very own Bond villain. Except he doesn’t reveal his evil plan. But look at all that foreign currency and the passports. Wait, did one of them have his last name as Moriarty? Okay, Sherlock Holmes villain. (Thanks for helping me with the reference, hon.)
Oh no. Hurley was bait. Say it ain’t so, Hurley!
And there’s Ben.
There’s Sawyer with that sexy wit of his. “So am I your prisoner?” “If that’s what turns you on.” Aww man, he doesn’t want to leave the island. Double aww… he wants to live in New Otherton with Kate.
Sayid, you dog, you. Creative bed sheet coverage there for her breasts. Sayid’s job has some perks, I guess. And Sayid has a list. And… Elsa shot him. And he killed her. Omigod. He closed her eyes the way he closed Naomi’s at the start of the episode. And it would appear that she wears the same kind of bracelet. Who is Elsa’s boss? He’s not an economist. Matthew Abaddon?
Sayid and Desmond are both getting off the island. Now. And they didn’t say goodbye to anyone. Not a single person.
OH.
MY.
FREAKING.
GOD.
Sayid works for BEN. When he went to get the bullet wound tended to, I said, “That voice sounds familiar.” And that’s why. It was husky Ben voice. That’s why Sayid has a list. Because Ben is big on lists. He’s having Sayid kill people in order to protect Sayid’s friends. Why? I have a feeling we’ll learn more about this in the eighth episode cliffhanger.
SQUEE.
