Another week, another great episode of Lost. Some new information was gather and, of course, more questions were introduced. Lets jump right to it:
- Another one of the Oceanic Six was revealed, none other than every one's favorite Iraqi Sayid Ja'hara. Post-Island Sayid seems to be some sort of contract assassin/Iraqi version of James Bond with less martinis and more golfing. That makes four we know of now: Jack, Kate, Hurley, and Sayid. Who will be the other two? I'm still thinking one has to be Claire otherwise Desmond's flash wouldn't come true.
- Speaking of Desmond's flashes, what happened to them? Now that Charlie died has he lost all his magic future abilities? I hope he and Sayid start some shenanigans once they get on the freighter.
- On the topic of the freighter, why did Frank not want Dan talking to George but it was ok for him to talk to Regina? And then in the previous episode Miles didn't want to talk to Regina he wanted to talk to George? Is there some freightie friction? Frank obviously doesn't care for Miles.
- Dan's experiment! The payload landed on the island and it's timer was like 20 minutes behind the timer on the Island. It is becoming obvious that time flows slower on the Island than it does in the regular world. I'm not much of a physicist but from what I think I know about time travel there are two things that could make time pass differently in one place when compared to another. One is when you approch the speed of light, which I'm pretty sure the Island isn't doing, and the other is when you're near something with massive gravitational pull such as a black hole. Now the Island isn't a black hole but it does have a history of gravitational anomalies which could be causing the time flux...
- I think this mysterious "R.C" who was in scripted on the bracelet that Naomi had is the head of the Frieghies and the arch enemy of Ben. Astute eyes would have noticed that not only did Naomi have a bracelet but as did Sayid's German harlot Elsa. Note to self - when I become some sort of evil mastermind remember to give out stylish bracelets to all my female employees. Second note to self - never trust a german girl named Elsa. This Elsa betrayed Sayid (although he betrayed her back) and the Elsa in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade betrayed Indiana and his father. Elsas are bad news!
- And the big twist at the end Ben is off Island and orchestrating a systematic elimination of whoever was controlling the freighies. I thought for sure the vet would turn out to be Jack's dad so I was totally thrown for a loop when it turned out to be Ben. But I like it because so far this season Ben's been my favorite character. The absolute smarm he radiates even while a prisoner of the Losties is awesome. Best line of the night goes to him when Locke brought tea for Sayid and he said he wanted tea. Hurley's line of "oh great, they sent another Sawyer" when Miles called him chunky was a close second.
