even more about this episode..

ben's dad is starting to question what really happened to him. he thinks that someone took him from the hospital bed while juliet and kate had left the room for a few minutes leaving him alone. the show comes off to make him look clueless but when kate tries to comfort him he starts to think that she has something to do with ben's disappearance, when in all actuality he is right. early in the episode sawyer tells miles, who works in security, to erase the tape of him and kate taking ben to the others. right as miles was going to do it, horsch the head leader made him go on his mission of delivering the dead body. since he never took the tape out the other security guy shows up at sawyers house to tell him he knows who took ben. when the man blames sawyer, sawyer punks the man and ties him up. this is when they start to realize that they did not properly cover their tracks and a big uproar is about to take place. i dont think that sawyer really knows what he is going to do next, and his leadership skills are about to be tested. i am so curious to see what is going to happen when the security guy goes missing now also. they could easily blames it on the others but im not sure they will.

on another note, i am glad that they showed last episode how ben got alex. we always knew he stole her from the french woman but im glad they showed us exactly how. and..i was confused wen he was with a young boy named ethan? is that horsch's son that they named ethan? because it obviously isnt the older ethan who seems to never age or die and is in charge of the others...? 

some like it hoth

in this episode we find out a lot about miles. we find out that he has always had his power of talking with the dead since he was a young child. we learn how he grew up with just his mother and he never really knew much of his father because he left them when he was a little boy. miles grew up hating his dad and taking money from people by pretending to talk to their lost relatives. eventually naomi who works for charles widmore approaches him about coming to the island for 1.6 million dollars. he accepts and then gets abducted and the people tell him that he is working for the wrong people and needs to be with them. this really confused me because they did not elaborate on this and just moved on after it. miles later realizes that his dad is the head scientist on the island and the man who is in all of the dharma videos giving instructions on how to work things in the different stations. he gets to know his dad some and actually sees himself as a child with his dad and realizes that his dad did love him and spend time with him. he finally starts to appreciate him and wants to help him.

also, miles becomes part of the circle of trust which meant that he had to pick up a package which consisted of him carting around a dead guy in a body bag. he is not allowed to ask questions and luckily sense he can talk to dead people he finds out what happened to him but his death doesnt really make much sense. also, hurley finds the body in the back of the van and was threatened by mile's dad to never tell anyone what he saw. i am curious to see how this story line plays out..

dead is dead

this was an interesting episode when suddenly on the island everyone who you thought was dead is not. the episode was mainly about ben and revealed a lot of things that we didnt know about him before like how he was brought up on the island, how he got alex, and his hatred for charles widmore. this episode was only about the plane victims, adding new characteristics and more drama to the show. i wish they would have devoted some of the episode the the main characters that are in the 70s at the dharma initiative. it is getting hard to keep up with both story lines. also ben was judged in this episode by the smoke monster. although i thought the island should have killed him off for all the bad things he has done, i knew that he couldnt possibly die at this part of the show so i was not the least bit worried. it was weird seeing alex alive again although i do not think that she was, i think it was just a ghost like figure reminding him of his past. i hope that he does not kill john locke again and does what alex tells him and listens to locke even though i know he is going to have to bite his tongue over it.

ben is not dead, but gone to the others

so i caught up on 2 more episodes since my last post and the first ended with ben being shot by sayid. the whole episode was about sayid and his purpose on the island and it should have been so obvious to me what that purpose was. ben trusts sayid as a child and sayid knew he could easily manipulate him. my jaw literally dropped when sayid shot ben at the very end. it would change everything and because i was so in shock i though that ben was dead. although it showed in the past episode that he was not dead but barely living. jack refuses to operate on him and kate gets mad and donates her own blood to give to young ben. when they realize that they cannot help ben where they are they decide to take him to the others. they bring him to ethan and he says that if he takes him now things will never be the same. ben is now with the others so the present still makes sense but i wonder what will now happen to the dharma initiative? originally they were wiped out by ben after he killed his father, but at this point ben's father and the entire dharma initiative still exist. the others will have to come up with a new plan of action. i am quite curious to see what they do next and i especially want to see who they blame for stealing the janitor keys and letting the hostile escape!

everyone is coming back

so i am a little behind in the episodes and i am trying to catch back up. the episode i just watched was about the oceanic 6 getting back to the island. it was an interesting episode that had a lot going on. it started off by showing us more scenes from the plane ride where they come back to the island. i am confused how the pilot knows everyone and i am curious to see what he and sun will have to go to find the others. the reason why no one saw the plane crash on the island is because it happened in present time, whereas they were looking in the past. the show is starting to get very confusing. the pilot and sun end up meeting christian sheppard who is jack's dad and he says he will tell them how to get to gin and their friends and that it will be a long journey. i am very interested to see how they will go back in time, but knowing this show they will find a way to make it happen. also, jack kate and hurley are all living in the barracks with dharma initiative and were assigned jobs. as for sayid, he was captured as a hostile an they do not know what to do with him yet. it was interesting to see sayid meet ben as a child although i am not sure if he realized that is what happened. i think that jack realized that sawyer and juliet are now together and jack does not know what to do with himself now that he is not in charge. the next episode should be interesting and i am sure they will make the next few episodes about how sun and the pilot will travel back in time..but i wonder what will happen with ben?

no episode this week but i still have so many questions about last weeks episode..what will happen with sawyer and kate? will he choose kate or juliet? what will jack do? when is ben oing to wake up from being sick or he is dead? what happened to sun and will jin ever get to see her again? where is aaron and where did he disappear to? big question: is aaron special in relation to the island? 

i am still so curious about a lot of things and im sure that they will not be answered in the next episode because they keep stretching them out and like this week not even having an episode. i actually like how they are set in a different time now because it puts a new spin on the show but it is frustrating that i feel like we are not moving forward with our knowledge in the show, but backward. im excited to see what they reveal next week.

where are they now?

so last night's episode was quite interesting. whatever john locke did by turning the wheel stopped all the flashes. since the flashes stopped that means that whatever point in time they are in is where they will now stay. they realize later in the episode that they are in the 70s when the dharma initiative was still living there. they flip back and forth between 3 years of time, which is how long it has been since the others left the island. sawyer is now head of the dharma initiave, behind the guy with long hair, and has moved on with his life. all the survivors left have now integrated themselves into the dharma community and sawyer makes the main focus to find the others when they come back. sawyer ends up falling in love with juliet, which i totally called as soon as kate left. the others end up returning to the island at the end of the episode which does not really make sense to me because they are like 30 years or more behind in time. when sawyer sees kate he is taken aback which makes me really mad because kate just got back with jack the night before they came back to the island. will locke ever be able to find them and is he not dead anymore? and whats the deal with ben and why has daniel gone crazy??
