Uncharted Island

One hour down, and seven Redshirt Others are dead. I don’t think they count in the “five people die” TV Guide spoiler. So five more people are going to bite the dust. Better not include Sawyer. There are five people down in the Looking Glass station right now… But I don’t know if they’d really kill off Charlie and Desmond.

Flashback to Jack popping his last pill in front of a coffin that looks far too small for no one to have showed up to the viewing. Why won’t they just tell us who died? Jack said he wasn’t friend or family. The fact that they won’t tell us who it is leads me to believe it’s a familiar face. But I can’t even begin to imagine who it might be.

I was wrong about Mikhail. He did follow orders. Good thing that Desmond found that spear gun. Sorry, Bonnie. Sorry, Greta. Can Mikhail cheat death one more time? Do the island’s healing powers extend underwater?

Oh my God. I don’t want to believe it. I will not believe that Sayid, Jin, and Bernard are dead until I see them for myself. Maybe we didn’t hear what we thought we heard over the radio. Please no. I don’t think Ben’s dead either, just beaten bloody unconscious.

Finally! Alex knows that Danielle is her mother. And Danielle kinda ruins the moment by making her first words to her daughter, “Will you help me tie him up?” Well, she’s been kinda out of the social graces loop for a while.

Ha! I knew it! I knew they didn’t kill them.

Wow! Hurley with the Dharma van. Sweet rescue! Look at all of these exclamation points!

I said that Tom probably wouldn’t survive the episode, since he’s the most loyal to Ben, about two seconds before Sawyer shot him. Sawyer’s taken quite a dark turn. My husband just agreed with me, saying, “Yeah, he’s in kind of a bad place right now.”

I can’t believe there’s only half an hour left of new LOST until next year. That totally sucks.

Take that, Ben! Even more of your people have turned against you.

Charlie turned off the yellow flashing light. I wonder what’s with the incoming transmission. Penny?

Oh Charlie… What a terrible way to die. But he died a hero, and he alerted Desmond to Naomi’s lie. For once, Ben wasn’t lying about something. Charlie’s death scene reminded me of both the scene in Armageddon right before the explosives go off and the scene in The X-Files where the Lone Gunmen seal themselves off to stop the biological agent.

*time passes as I can’t tear my eyes away from the TV*

So wait. If this was a flash forward instead of a flashback… Why does Jack say something about getting his father down to see if he’s drunker than he is? Was he just confused because of the drinking and the pills? And… I’m sorry, but what? I’m so confused right now. And I’m sure everyone else is, too. Time to go hit the fan boards to see what the hell everyone else thinks is going on.
