I think the internet would be more pleased with Kate & Juliet in tight leather kissing each other passionately.

I also wondered about the "3 years" issue. Why did both parties deal with three years?

Questions: Who was the baby? Or better yet, who will the baby be? There is no such thing as an insignificant birth, especially with a troubled drunk father, on Lost.

Well, it's a boy, who would be in his late 20s at the time the plane crashed. Who fits that description? Alex's boyfriend? He strikes me as too young.

I was watching while entertaining company. How do we know what year Sawyer's group wound up stuck in? And did Daniel appear in any of the "3 years later" segments?

I believe Sawyer mentioned 1974 at one point and that it was before the 'three years later' stuff.

Don't recall seeing Daniel in any of the later stuff.

Yep.

The current year when the 2 groups meet up at the end of the episode is 1977.

In earlier episode, we saw Daniel working on the Orchid. He's around.

Still surprised no one's throwing up new "Lost" threads.

I have to say, I feel bad for Jack -- He's been attracted to two women, and they both clearly prefer Sawyer to him. And now he's a janitor!

Indeed. Very strange, since Lost is clearly -imho- the best show atm.

I wonder what happened with Ben after Sun whacked him with the paddle,and she and Frank left (late at night). He has clearly taken a heavy beating, unconscious and bruised, lined up in the shack.
Canīt wait to see how Johnīs going to handle this situation.

Normally I donīt care for the love "stuff" but I do hope that Sawyer stays with Juliet: Let Kate and Jack sort things out and get on with the important things

Pretty cool that the work Kate and Sawyer did on the Hydra island while being held there (during season 3), actually turned out to be THE runway Juliet was talking about.

SAWYER: So, when you pulled us out of those polar bear cages and put us on the chain gang, what the hell you have us breaking all those rocks for anyway?
JULIET: We were building a runway.
SAWYER: Runway, for what?
JULIET: [Turns to him] The aliens.
[She smirks]
JULIET: I don't know what for, do you think they told me everything?

And finally; why canīt Sun and the others go back to -77? Or will Jacob/Christian help them?

A remarkable episode, to much to think about!!

Probably because Lost has long since burned too many bridges thanks to the very bad Seasons 3 and 4.

With that said, this season is much better... because, of course, they're telling us more about the island and the Dharma Initiative - the actual interesting things about the show. For Lost, answers (even in little drips and drabs) = good.

I thought season 4 was really good. Once they had a definite ending date, it was like they didn't feel the need to stretch things out, and just got on with the show.

It's still a story told eliptically, but that's okay with me, since they're doing a pretty good job, imo.

I guess we now know the baby will be Ethan. Nasty knock for Juliet.

I think the cute blonde lady turning out to be an angel will wind up alienating some viewers.

But they don't seem bothered by the "leader of his people" seeing folks who aren't there. Odd.

I was both a little horrified, and a little thrilled, when Sayid did that. But of course it won't take, even though Sayid is an experienced killer. Only using one bullet? Huff!

I was disappointed that it was not a head shot.

So I kept thinking to myself that I knew where it was going so they just wouldn't do it, that they just couldn't do it, because of what it was that they were going to do and how it is just something that shouldn't be done, and then they did it. This, of course, means that it isn't really as it seems and probably wasn't actually done. As per above, no headshot and he was running off without taking a second shot for insurance, so it was probably not an actual death. We'll see, though.
