Lost Season 6 - RE: LA X

that specifically gave him powers?

he was a kid then

when Jacob drank the wine that's probably when he stopped ageing. too bad they couldn't give some of that to Walt right?

lol

Why did Flocke tell Ben that his new plan was to blow up the island? Didn't he JUST tell Ben that he could have the island after Flocke left?

i think because Ben didn't really believe Flocke and accepts he has to comply with Flocke's requests to stay alive for the moment. and Flocke can just tell Ben stuff believing he can't stop him.

i am such a man of faith right now

has there been any indication exactly why Des woke up and started running around taking care of business in the alt reality?

I guess there was the Charlie encounter. Guess something snapped after that?

Desmond is Fry after 1000 cups of coffee - awesome

I love how Desmond beating the crap out of Ben is what made Ben remember the Island -- I guess he's taken enough beatings there for it to jog his memory.

yeah that was done pretty well.

i do like how Locke getting his legs back is like a threshold for him in both timelines. I just hope we don't get some lame "the real Locke is fighting back to retake his body!"

that wd be cool

Desmond is Fry after 1000 cups of coffee - awesome

i totally forgot how awesome that episode was

im really starting to think that the whole "rules" thing and "powers" on the island is going to turn out to be something along the lines of "IF U BELIEVE, IT COME TRUE CUZ THE ISLAND IS MAGIC!"

to be fair it's always been like that

yeah if these are done as some sort of crawler at the bottom of the screen somebody at ABC needs to die

must... troll.. that.. feed...

don't... feed... the... troll...

i wish every episode this year had been like this.

ya kinda wish this ep had happened like, 10 eps ago

i mean, sittin' around the campfire with friggin' jacob. so satisfying after all this time...

decent ep imo

Hey guys, we are on the last episode and we still don't know how the two timelines relate.

Kinda weird.

But yeah, good episode.

I hope that smokey makes it to the light coming out of the middle of the island, is about to go into it, and then Desmond pops out and beats the shit out of him.

What if (and this actually has some past story facts working against it, mind you) Desmond in the alt.timeline is actually Smokey? The island was destroyed, because he got off it and is now bringing everyone together at this concert to kill them once and for all?

Things you'd have to ignore for this to be true, though: Charlie is the one who convinced alt.Desmond that there's a parallel timeline and where is the real Desmond?

Still, that would be a pretty badass ending.

sweet

OK, what if alt-Desmond doesn't remember just what has already happened to Desmond that we have seen, but remembers all the shit that is yet to happen? So he somehow stops smokey by altering our Desmond's actions to keep him from succeeding.

the people in the alt timeline who found their constants definitely see all that happened in the original timeline -- like sun remembering that locke was evil, which didn't happen until 3 years after the plane crash.

I forgot about the whole constant angle. If Daniel and Desmond are constant twins, who is everyone else's? Maybe Desmond is everyone's constant?

I love how Desmond beating the crap out of Ben is what made Ben remember the Island -- I guess he's taken enough beatings there for it to jog his memory.

think the beating he was remembering was on the pier when he appeared to shoot penny?

wow jack's a bad actor

Hey guys, we are on the last episode and we still don't know how the two timelines relate.

Kinda weird.

But yeah, good episode.

i'd hoped that the flash sideways would be resolved or at least explained around the halfway point of the season, but when that didn't happen it seemed obvious that they were gonna save that for the finale

xposts aggghhh the constant thing was one of the biggest piles of BS they've had and if they specifically bring that back then aagghhh

I'll allow them (just) to continue using their intense moments of wuv thing to explain how they see into the other timeline but even that is shitty enough.

fucking constants and light and magic potions and magic mirrors and magic swimming pools, how do they work? it's turning into LOTR elves and pixie crap. I wanted more sinister doctors and injections and time travel and long cons dammit!

and underground secret stations and one-eyed russians and Sun properly teaming up with Widmore to go round kicking ass

miles: woah...I kinda get wonky around dead stuff because it seemed like a good idea a couple of years ago and although it did help move the plot on a couple of times ultimately it led nowhere and is dumb but so's a lot of stuff eh :S

Did anyone catch what was the secret latin blessing jacob + octomom uses to turn the water to grail fluid?

the camera also panned across a Jack & son family photo that may or may not have had the mysterious mother in it, anybody got an avi version they can check?

xpost seemed important think they're gonna come back to that in some big way in the finale

I think the photo was just Jack, Christian, and David.

anybody got an avi version they can check?

I do (& did) - the third person in the photo is just boring old drunk grandpa.

regarding constants..... they've gone with people they love now. daniel's constant wasn't des. it probably only affects people who were on the island, too. juliet's "it worked" seems to be a red herring as original timeline peeps can't see the alt timeline.

daniel -> charlotte
des -> penny
sun -> jin
hurley <-> libby
bernard -> rose
jack -> nobody (he's bleeding out)

xpost it was just Jack, Christian and David but tbh i think we know who the mother is

Yeah, it's Carol Vessey from Stuckeyville.

nikki?

smoke monster will ARISE through the cut in Jack's neck.

The constant thing was just to do with keeping your head together while time travelling or something, wasn't it? Maybe Jack does have a super-love, his ex-wife. I can't figure how the person I had down as David's mum fits into the alt, though...

I'm sad that Widmore got killed, I was really starting to enjoy him.

I never really 'got' Widmore, he didn't seem to live up to the position the show put him in and up against Ben could never really come off especially ruthless or interesting

The Shadow of the Statue people, the Temple people, and Widmore's crew were all pure cannon fodder and nothing more. Kinda lame.
