uphill struggle

i was thinking, could charlotte be the little girl that ben liked when he was still part of dharma? but then, wouldnt he recognize her and he seems much older than her.

my cable cut out just as desmond came on screen, did he and ben say anything to each other? and penny should die next episode?

greg, hugo is going to walk out of jail a free man. did you miss the episode two weeks ago where the lawyer said they have no case

Desmond just asked if they were there to see Faraday's mother as well.

Have we seen Faraday's mom/Ms Hawking before? She looked familar. Was she the jewelry saleswoman when Desmond was buying an engagement ring or something for Penny.

She's also in a picture on the desk of the monk right as Desmond is being fired.

I just watched online.

Jacob taking the form of Christian Shepard. So Christian was dead on the plane when they crash landed, originally. A parallel to Locke having to die in order to get everyone to come back?

I forget about the significance of the severed arm, if there even was any.

Locke should have stopped the skipping through time stuff by turning the wheel.

holy **** a lot just happened

oceanic six + back on the island. ben probably killed penny and maybe desmond.

sun went back to the island way too easily considering she has a kid at home.

wonder what kate did the aaron, i'm guessing gave him to the grandmother

next week's preview seems like it's going to answer questions but not drive the show forward.

Based on Ben's condition and his somewhat frantic call to Jack, I wouldn't be surprised if he failed in his revenge mission. If he had succeeded, he would have been a lot more calm, IMO.

Best moment of the episode was this exchange between Jack and Ben on the plane before it took off:

Jack: What will happen to all the other people on the plane?
Ben: Who cares.

Ben rules.

And I think Locke did stop the time-skipping, which is just as well. I like time travel, but I can see how fans would have grown tired of it (if they haven't already) if they kept it going much longer.

On the time travel.

If the island was in "our time" when the flight from Guam flew over it, why was Jin playing security guard for Dharma? In other words, Jin is also experiencing the shft in time. I'm confused on this matter.

The rest of the episode I loved, particularly the lack of explanations of why everyone was on the plance, provided they explain it all in one episode. If they are going to use it as a device to drag out the next six weeks, I'll be pissed.

It also seemed that much like Jack had to bring something of his father with him and Locke, Hurley had to bring something of Charlie's. Hence the guitar.

I know that storyline is sort of resolved for now, but watching the rerun of last week's episode I can definitively say I have absolutely NO idea why Sun was intent on blaming Ben for Jin's "death", as opposed to say...Charles Widmore who sent the insane C-4 planting mercenaries in the first place. The episode pop-up sort of offered the explanation that it was because Ben killed the head mercenary knowing it would blow up the freighter, but there's no way Sun could possibly know about that.

Oh well that just bugged me a bit.

As to Fonzy's question, I don't know other than maybe it was in the island's airspace during another 'flash'? But then, that wouldn't make any sense that Jin was a solid uniformed member of Dharma and Daniel (from the season premiere, remember) as well...

It'll be quite interesting if they are still in the Dharma Initiative time and we see how that whole thing develops with 2 bens running around.

I think one of the reasons the show has been solid this year is it's just a giant bundle of fun. Like a pop-over. Not much of it is making total sense, and even those who have seen every episode have no idea what is going on, but for some reason it works. Like a pop-over.

I also liked "We're not going to Guam are we?"
