I also find it weird that the Island doesn’t want Michael dead yet.. He is the only one able to fix the boat. Without him, the Losties wouldn’t be able to get home, at least not through the boat.

Ben is losing his faith and doubting the Island’s power. Anyone thinks it’s a coincidence that Ben got sick a couple of days before Oceanic 815 crashed on the Island? Or was the Island setting things in motion…? Get Ben sick, he’ll want someone to fix him. Oh wow look, a spinal surgeon on the flight, Ben will try to save himself and grab the doctor to fix him. These events will lead Locke to the Cabin, and his commetment will be tested. John has been shown signs no one else have seen from his first day on the Island. Signs strong enough to make him realize that this place is special from day 1.

But why is Hurley special and can see the Cabin? What about Claire? I believe she and Jack are on the same level of faith. They both aren’t supersticious and believe in nothing such as fate, god or the Island.

SUN: Do you think all this … all we’ve been through … do you think we’re being punished?

SHANNON: Punished for what?

SUN: Things we did before. The secrets we kept. The lies we told.

SHANNON: Who do you think is punishing us?

SUN: Fate.

CLAIRE: No one’s punishing us.

(They both turn to look at Claire, who stares off in front of her.)

CLAIRE: There’s no such thing as fate.

What’s with the sudden change of the ship’s captain? When Desmond and Saiyd first got on the freighter, he was behaving EXACTLY like Keamy is right now. Even Lapidus was so scared of him and telling Saiyd and Desmond they don’t want to talk to him or meet him. Yet now he is very eager to help Saiyd and Desmond. Suddenly all kind and helpful… Weird.

And the time difference between the outside world and the Island is getting crazy by the minute O_o Why do I think it is crazy? Well for one… The helicopter took off at night, and reached the Island at night. The doctor was killed before the helipcopter took off by 2 minutes, and the body reached the Island 2 days or so before the helicopter? However when Saiyd and Desmond took off from the Island, going to the freighter, how long did it take them to get there?

I recognized Abaddon from the moment he grabbed the Wheelchair. That bald head is very unique xD Richard knew Locke was unique since he was a child, but how? How did Abaddon know Locke was unique though? He was talking to Locke as if he knew John was going to end up on the Island, and he’d survive. Yet when he was talking to Naomi, he kept saying that every single one who was on Oceanic 815 is dead.. Now, another question bugging me. Abaddon works for Widmore obviously (Since he put the team together, and the freighter belongs to Widmore).. Why didn’t Abaddon or other people working for Widmore board Oceanic 815?

Apparently, Claire was told a LOT of things by Christian that made her in this state.. Everyone knows how INSANE Claire without Aaron. But to be so CALM at the Cabin and not giving a flying c*** about Aaron? That’s one of the things I didn’t expect to see ever. I thought the only reason Kate had Aaron was because Claire is dead X_x

Ohhh boy.. It’s getting better and worse. Better because of how insane it’s getting, and worse because we are getting close to the season’s finale. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh life will be so hard without Lost all these months ;________;

The Buddy Holly song, Everyday, wasn’t the original song but a cover version. Guess they couldn’t get the original performance license. Also the song is an anachronism since it was released on Sept 20, 1957, not 1956. Holly and Norman Petty hadn’t even written the song by John Locke’s supposed birthday of May 30th, 1956.

Keamy is supposed to be a Marine yet he referred to his handgun as a ‘gun’, not ‘weapon’ or ‘handgun’. (This is my weapon, this is my gun. This is for fighting, this is for fun.) Then, killing the only medical support for him and his men before going on a high threat mission is pretty damn stupid too. I guess his mission is intended as a suicide mission. This, and having him make First Sergeant within 4 years of being in the Corps as mentioned in a previous episode, makes me even more annoyed with the writers when it comes to military and Marines stuff.

Other than that, this was a great episode. My guess, Widmore ordered the murder of the Dharma personnel.

It makes sense when you think about people saying how they “weren’t supposed to leave the island” or Ben saying that Jack wasn’t supposed to do something. The rules that Ben spoke about between him and Widmore could be agreed upon because breaking those rules would change the timeline too much.

In last night’s episode we could have seen an example of this knowledge being used in the information that was in the safe. Keamy said it was information on where Ben would be – information Widmore could have had if he was privy to the first timeline somehow…

That’s all I’ve got right now.
