LOST 3/30/05 Spoilers!

Okay. I appreciate that. So, did older dude take that old dudes kidney?

Correct. Took it and went home and did not speak to Locke afterwards. It was all a dirty trick.

 

[Greylock]

Thanks. No more stupid questions. Proceed with your regular discussion.

 

[Zuoken]

Damn, that was another great episode.

I think I understand Locke a bit better now. All his life he's been looking for a strong father figure; someone to trust, someone to rely on. He didn't have a chance for that growing up in foster homes. All his knowledge about survival skills and his insecurity stems from this, the fact that he has always needed to rely on himself when all he has ever wanted was to look up to someone else.

That was why he was so easily manipulated by his actual father; he trusted too much, and got burned for it. Now, he sees the island itself as his mentor, his father in his own, private way. Things are definitely starting to get interesting....

Now Boone has the distinct honor of being the only island resident to have survived two plane crashes onto the island.

Or the irony if he dies from this plane crash after surviving the other one.

BTW, great casting of Swoozie Kurtz as Locke's mother, they visually look so much alike.

Did Boone's message get understood?

As cool as the light coming on inside the hatch was, this part was the juciest bit of the episode IMHO. After Boone says that he is a survivor of flight 815, the man on the other end of the radio responds:

"There were no survivors of flight 815."

Excellent....that's what I *thought* I heard...but wasn't sure if I had misinterpreted it. So, does that mean that everyone thinks they're dead? Or that they *are* dead? I'd be starting to lean towards the latter, especially given Locke's ability to walk.

I'm not sure if this has come up in discussions before...but even John Locke's name....John Locke basically wrote of "Tabula Rasa", children born as blank slates, didn't he? I missed discussions on the show at the start of the season, so I'm not sure if this has already been talked about..

Another thing I noticed......in the articles that discuss the season finale, it's said that one of the main characters will die, largely because another character isn't truthful about the nature of the injury...something to that effect. At the end of this episode, Locke told Jack that Boone fell off a cliff. Then, when Jack was calling for Locke to tell him exactly what happened, Locke wasn't there.

Is it possible that Boone will be the character who dies? When't the final episode of the season?

Locke is either involved or somehow responsible with the 'death.'

I dunno if Boone is going to bite it or not. The Season Finale is still a few episodes away and having him slowly dying over the course of a few episodes wouldn't be as 'shocking' as the cast have made it out to be.

I think Boone will live.

Was the spoiler that someone would die in the season finale? Or that someone would die before the end of the season? If it's the latter, it's possible that Boone could kick the bucket.

I was reading on another message board an idea about Locke.....John's true father's last name is Cooper, meaning that John's initials are J.C. There was a lof of religious symbology in this episode. Could it be that Locke is some kind of Jesus figure, a "saviour" for the others on the island in some way?

okay, missed it can some spoile the hell out of this episode for me?

 

[Filby]

Oh, man, I feel so sorry for Locke...
