Claire reminded me a bit of when she was all drugged up with Ethan. I still don't think she's dead cause it wouldn't make sense.
It was hard to get my head round a lot of this ep. We had some backstory on why Richard Alpert was tailing Locke but Abaddon was totally random he was presumably parading as an orderly but it just seemed like oh let's throw another creepy stalker guy in the mix.
Things are really starting to fall into place now. Sayid has to be their means of rescue but when they go back for a second run the island will have moved Awesome. I hope Desmond makes it okay though I'm worried about him now.
Another highlight was Ben telling Locke that he wasn't the leader behind killing the Dharma Initiative so clearly at that point he wasn't their saviour he was just a turncoat. And yeah I loved that scene at the end with Ben eyeing the candy bar haha

Candy bar scene was great. Hurley and Ben - the new rag-taggers. Who'd of thunk it?
Do you think John remembers Richard? I know they've interacted on the island, and I know he met Richard when he was 5, and we don't really retain a lot of memories at that age, but still.....it makes me wonder.
WTF is up with Claire?! Is she in on the big secretive island now? She seemed pretty damn smug to me....
I can't believe Keamy killed the captain like that. What a bastard. I HATE HIM! I am going to be really angry with the writers if they let him live into the 5th season. Seriously....angry letters will be written.
I'm starting to worry about Desmond too...He should have gone with Sayid, but he did have a point in never wanting to be on the island again....
This ep was so crazy...I still don't think it measures up to The Shape of Things to Come, but it was a heck of a lot better than the Jate filler last week. My brain is still spinning.... _________________

meh; this episode kinda sucked to me. there was too much hype and not enough answers. not like the last few weeks. this may be cos i dont much care for Locke but who knows?
i knew Claire would be all weird and druggy; definately not herself. methinks/mehopes she'll snap out of it at some point and start screeching. but woot; she's alive!!
no sawyer and aaron:
Spoiler:
altho next week I know im gonna get some; saw the promo! they're getting of the island and sawyer stays with Claire!!! ConMama, ConMama, ConMama people!
im annoyed it was another f/back. but at least it showed different moments from jonnie's life. he was kinda a hot teenager; if you ask me. and mehtinks that's the first time he uttered 'dont tell me what i cant do' before it became his personal mantra.
again; meh this week. altho props to Sayid for taking the lead on the boat; keamy's a weirdo and im so sad that he shot the captain; he was cool! the weird time travel thing came up again; kinda cool but not too exciting.
cant wait for next week but this week was average to me. _________________

I totally called it about the doctor. I said to my mom yesterday morning, "What if the island's is actually in the future, because of the time difference, and the doctor is really going to die tonight?" And he did!
And I was just starting to like the captain! He was cool, man! And then Keamy shot him! I was like, Desmond better hide.
Claire's become a Jacob minion. It was freaky,. I hope she snaps out of it, too. I don't think I like this creepy-Claire.
Anyone notice that Frank dropped the sat phone on Claire's tent? I was expecting someone to look in the cradle and say "Hey, Charlie's ring is in here. Hmm, I wonder why?" Anyway, I wonder if it has significance that it was dropped on Claire's tent.
I thought the flashbacks were really interesting too. I wonder why Richard left after lil John picked up the knife?
And ROFL at the candy bar scene. My whole family was laughing at that!
Anyway, really good eppy, and next week looks great! Only 2 episodes left! _________________ icon by becca

yup; i totally picked up on that and it was so not coicidental. and maybe there's some underlying reason why Claire's tent, hense her bed, was crushed and the crib was fine? showing that claire stays on the island and aaron doesn't? but i was so hoping someone would find the ring...maybe Kate finds it in the crib and tells aaron about Charlie in the future every now and again???
im pretty much convinced Claire wont die now; not with Christian in there. he'll want her to live. dunno why he doesn't want aaron there or Jack...but he wants Claire so she'll live; im sticking with that! _________________
