Another week, another breakdown of the lastest episode of Lost. I think everybody on this email wanted to get the Lost Forum but if you don't just let me know and I'll take you off. Since I don't have everyone's email addresses now that I don't have my work Outlook I pretty much just cut and pasted all the email addresses from Meredith's Lost email last week.
This week we get new insite into the Freighties and, as usually, that leads to more questions. Unlike last season's new characters Nikki & Paulo I have no desire to strangle any of the new Freighties when they're on screen, which is good.
My thoughts in no particular order:
- A short breakdown of the Frieghties we know of:
- Dan - Physciasist
- Miles - Psychic/Paranormal
- Charlotte - Anthropologist
- Frank - Pilot, should have been flying Oceanic 815 the day it crashed
- Naomi - Dead. Some sort of mercenary?
- Regina - On the boat, answered Miles' phone call at the end
- George - On the boat, apparent guy in charge of the people on the Friegher
- Mysterious Black Guy - We first saw him last week visiting Hurley in the crazy house and freaking him out. This week we see him giving Naomi her mission. He seems to be the Frieghtie version of Ben.
- Two interesting things about Dan. In his flashback he starts to cry for no reason upon hearing about Oceanic 815. What's up with that? Some sort of psychic connection? Seems more like Miles turf. Once on Island Dan mentions that the light is weird on the Island. It doesn't scatter right. I'm no physcasist but maybe it has to do with the whole magnetic anomoly that was where the hatch used to be?
- Hurley could be in for trouble know that Ben and Locke suspect that he too can see Jacob's Magic Shack (TM). Maybe this is why he eventually regrets going with Locke?
- Why did the Frieghties have gas masks on the chopper? Were they going to gas everyone Ben-style?
- So is Taller Ghost Walt really giving instructions to Locke or is Jacob either a) controlling Walt or b) creating an illusionary Walt?
- Everything happens for a reason. Thanks to Locke's crappy Dad stealing his kidney he lives when Ben shoots him in his kidney hole.
- Sayid/Juliet's little trick with the Frieghties was pretty similar to the Other's trick on Jack back in season two when Tom had everyone light up their torches to prove to Jack that he was surrounded. Will the Losties find themselves becoming more and more like the Others?
- What's up with Charlotte finding a polar bear with a collar from the Hydra Station in Tunisia? Is the Island in some sort of weird different dimension/place in space time?
- With Frank saying that the pilot in the Oceanic wreckage is not the right guy I think we've got proof that the plane on the bottom of the ocean was a plant. The question is who or what has the means to plant plane wreckage 3 miles under the ocean complete with 200+ dead bodies?
- So the Frieghties have come for Ben and they're sporting a nifty photo of him from what looks like the 70s. Are they with the remanents of Dharma after him for pretty much killing everyone on the Dharma Island team? And if they're there for Ben then why did Naomi have a picture of Desmond? Could she be a double agent working for Dharma but secretly working for Penny to find Desmond?
- Ben's man on the Frieghter. I'm going out on a limb right now and saying that Ben's man on the inside is none other than Michael "WAAAAAAAALLLLLT!" Dawson.
Well that's what I got, discuss!
