LOST: Another complete twist that just make my head get all messed with.

[graywarrior]

Man!

[GenDem]

1. The cat, the chess game, ping pong with Hurley

I'm cur-fuddled and perplexed. :shrug: I must take some time and sort.

[graywarrior]

2. Did Sayib, or did he not do what they said he did?

OMG.

[GenDem]

3. I think he did

Maybe he had blocked it out, because he sure as hell was denying it until the woman talked with him

I thought this was a great episode.

I'm wondering if the food drops will continue now that this station blew up.

[graywarrior]

4. You mean the place that maybe wasn't a place, but could be a place?

I can't take the stress Sawyer is under and all this other shit at the same time. My head is exploding. And yes, it was a great episode and next week looks even better. Damn that John Locke.

[GenDem]

5. He just had to play the fucking chess game

and how did 'Patchy' get untied?

[graywarrior]

6. Someone else in there?

The cat?
He did it himself. Who is he and why the eyepatch? Questions questions...always with the questions. Never an answer.

[GenDem]

7. What about the "purge"?

Sounds quite a bit like "surge", doesn't it?
Awfully funny that they called it a "purge" and it was a Sayed centered episode with Iraq connections.

[graywarrior]

8. There's a lot of references to Iraq, the war, torture.

I don't think they are being political, but it seems curious.

[GenDem]

9. Wasn't Nadia Sayed's love interest from Iraq?

Did you see how Sayed reacted when he heard the cats name was Nadia? And that was the same cat that was in the restaurant.


So much I need to remember from the other episodes that I've forgotten.

[graywarrior]

10. I know. I have to go buy the first 2 seasons and take the "refresher course"

[Midlodemocrat]

14. Man, gray! I HAVE them and I'm still lost.

Did he know that woman or not? I would love to think that Sayid wasn't big into torture, but I don't know?

[graywarrior]

16. Well, we know he was because ever since he got to the island he's been practicing

Not to the fullest extent, but still doing the mindfuck torture.

And the other thing about him is he trusts no one. He sees things no one else sees, is able to jump to the next conclusion and usually is right.

[MorningGlow]

35. Wasn't he forced into it?

I seem to recall an ep where his superiors in the army made him do it and he didn't want to. But then he "got used to it" or something. I thought that was a nice touch, keeping Sayid from being labeled a monster for being a torturer. And, relating to Abu Ghraib, vindicating the grunts a bit by placing the blame on the superior officers for ordering torture and the grunts unable to refuse. Not saying the grunts didn't participate, but implicating the superiors makes more sense than the Abu Ghraib trial fiasco.

[Midlodemocrat]

41. I think so, IIRC.

I'm going to have to watch some of those DVDs again. Now that Lost is on at 10, all my kids are asleep so I can watch uninterrupted.

Before, when it was on earlier, they were just going to bed, so it was the usual flurry of activity and I missed a lot of stuff. Hence the DVD purchase.

[MorningGlow]

51. Same here

I found myself sitting there watching the show live last night and wondering WTF--I NEVER get to see a show live--everything's stashed on the TiVo while Jr. watches The Goodnight Show on Sprout. I'm liking this 10 p.m. slot.

[graywarrior]

58. The closer to dream time, the better, huh?

:evilgrin:

[Zuiderelle]

25. That's what I thought. That she was the woman he was trying to help escape from prison in Iraq.

:shrug: But then he admitted to torturing her. So, maybe it was both. He was trying to help her escape after he had already tortured her.

[graywarrior]

11. And another thing: Sawyer's line: "Who the hell are you?"

Like who are these new people?

[GenDem]

12. Locke has now blown up two stations

And, just curious -- how does this thread have over 2000 views already? :scared:

[graywarrior]

13. I was just thinking that. WTF?

I just started it at 11:18. Maybe the writers and all their little friends looking for ideas.

[GenDem]

17. Maybe you're being spied on, gray

:scared:

[graywarrior]

19. It's all my stalkers.

:rofl:

[GenDem]

20. Must be

because your Christian punk thread is way up there, too.

[graywarrior]

21. WTF?

My fans. Or a bunch of fundies out to rip me to shreds. Come get me, ya bastids!!!

[GenDem]

22. 2354 views!!!!!

This is as mysterious as 'Lost'. :scared: I want to see what happens the next time you start a thread.

[MorningGlow]

37. That idea has more merit than you think

I wouldn't doubt shows like this have interns trolling the Web to see people's reactions to the eps! Hey, you could be famous! :hi:

[xmas74]

57. I read somewhere that the writers for Lost

(and the writers for Heroes) admit to reading message boards for ideas, either to use or discard. Supposedly they've admitted to having interns read the boards everywhere and then keep track of all the theories.


What you're saying might not be as far off as you think.

[GenDem]

15. Yeah

I think there should be a moratorium -- no more new people 'til more is revealed. I can't keep track of the ones we already have.

[graywarrior]

18. Well, there have been new people showing up in the background

of the camp all along, but this last few episodes is the first time they've spoken. And they are always different, except for the two tonight who have been around since this season started.

And what happened to the black lady who was chummy with John?

[MorningGlow]

52. That was a GREAT line

And great delivery--excellent comic timing. I was :rofl:

I'm glad the show is being more humorous lately--like last week's Hurley ep. VERY funny!

[Ava]

23. I love lost, but

grrrr grrrrrr grrrrrr!!!

we need to start getting some real answers instead of more questions, lol

[Tyrone Slothrop]

27. At least we finally found out what happened to the Dharma folks

I thought last night's episode (as well as being a return to form) was actually pretty informative.

[graywarrior]

24. How in hell did this thread get 2417 views between 11:18 and 12:38 last night?

Those numbers must MEAN something.

[soleft]

26. I thought The Others were Dharma

Was I the only one who thought that? So now do we have to call them The Hostiles?

[GenDem]

28. Maybe the 'Others' took over the DHARMA stations

and kept up a facade with the DHARMA Initiative higher ups -- so the food drops and supplies would continue. When Locke punched in 77 and blew up the 'Flame' it communicated to the DHARMA people that the 'Others', who the DHARMA people call 'Hostiles', have indeed compromised the experiment. Could this mean an invasion or assault by the initiative people? It's hard trying to figure out just who the bad guys really are. I wonder if the 'Others' are DHARMA traitors that realized they were being fucked with by the initiative. They always say "we are the good guys".

Just some lunch time thoughts.

[Javaman]

29. I have finally figured out Lost...

Each episode leaves me completely confused every-time I watch one.

but last night, I had an epiphany.

of the 47 minutes viewing time, 44 minutes is completely worthless.

The first minute, the last minute and the one minute of what's coming next week give you all the clues you need.

the stuff in between is just their to fuck with your head.

[soleft]

31. but you get to look at Kate

So....

[Javaman]

53. Good point. :) nt

[NewWaveChick1981]

30. Exactly. They messed with my head so much that I had a sex dream about Sayid last night.

:P Or should I say, very early this morning. ;)

Locke is SUCH a fuckup. :grr: Two Dharma stations blown up now---for no really good reason.

[billyskank]

32. ...

:rofl:

[billyskank]

47. Note to self: posting in threads in which women are discussing Lost -

don't bother. ;)

[NewWaveChick1981]

55. Don't take it personally, billyskank...

:hug: I was really effing busy today at work and just saw bits and pieces of responses until I started looking now. :pals: :loveya: I still love you anyway! :D

[graywarrior]

59. It's hard enough dealing with Sawyer, Desmond and Sayid

never mind throwing you into the mix. Speaking for myself, I can only take so much "heat."

:loveya:

[MorningGlow]

33. Mmmm...Sayid...

I do so enjoy this show for the eye candy as well as the mystery. Sayid, Sawyer, Desmond...I just can't choose! :P

[grace0418]

42. Damn Sayid was looking mighty fine in those chef's whites with his hair pinned back.

I would love to cut his hair, give him a bath, then do all kinds of naughty things to him. He's yummy!

[graywarrior]

34. But Locke has faith...and vision (even tho it's his own)

And how could you have had sex with Sayid, when I did. What time was yours?

[MorningGlow]

36. Wait a minnit

Where's MY Sayid sex dream? Lost in the mail? :(

[graywarrior]

38. Evidently, you were doing Sawyer...or Desmond at the time.

[MorningGlow]

39. Oh yeaaahhhhh!

I like that explanation! :) Thanks! (Now, if only I could remember it... :( )

[graywarrior]

40. Well, you do have the MorningGlow, so it must have happened.

[MorningGlow]

50. Ooooh!

:spank: :spank: :spank: :rofl:

[NewWaveChick1981]

43. Now I wanna do Sawyer or Desmond...

:evilgrin: Sayid was so gooooood.... :P Must be something about being stranded on an island....:rofl:

[graywarrior]

44. Sayid went up about 50 notches in the babe department after last night.

Damn. All that male sweating and crying. Oh baby, oh.

[NewWaveChick1981]

45. I woke up at 4 AM...

...and we...uh...had just wrapped it up.. :P

[graywarrior]

46. What time zone? He was with me at 6 am EST.

How can he be in 2 (a million)places all at once?

[NewWaveChick1981]

48. Eastern. That guy gets around---first me at 4 AM, then you at 6 AM...

...and everywhere in between... :rofl:

[graywarrior]

49. I wonder if he had to stand in line in front or in back of Sawyer and Desmond.

And then thre's Jin to contend with. Bet he has nightly visits, along with Hurley and even Charlie! And poor Kate is handling everyone!!!

[NewWaveChick1981]

54. Heheheh... You said "handling"...

:rofl: :evilgrin: There could be much worse lineups, that's for damn sure.... :P

[Zookeeper]

61. My kids share your view of Locke...

But, I'm not so sure. Granted, Locke is a loose cannon, but we don't know yet that blowing up those stations was a bad thing. I don't have much faith left that the writers have the entire plot line figured out, but Locke's actions could end up being significant or positive.

I'm starting to feel silly for even analyzing the plots.

[bikebloke]

56. Lost discussion forums

One day at work when it was real slow, I went looking for Lost discussion forums. I found one where people were posting as they watched the episode. Nothing but OMG's for pages, with the odd "Did you see what he did?" No discussion; just exclamations.

[graywarrior]

60. We're easily transfixed, us LOST ones.

:tinfoilhat:
