"What is the smoke monster?!?!"
"I don't know!"

NICE!

Last night was awesome.

WTF was a polar bear and a hydra bear collar doing in the desert?

I doubt that we'll revisit desert polar bear, but, wouldn't it be interesting to know if the dig eventually reveals the bullet from Sawyer's gun?

I'm still trying to figure out if it was a flash back or a flash forward. She was super excited to find the bracelet.

Also seem to recall seeing the first helicopter dude (forgot his name) in a previous season.

And what the heck was the mission? Scary dude seemed to know they were alive on the island.

I wonder if they are from Dharma - and they want Ben because Ben killed their people. Maybe that's why he had a gas mask.

That's been my theory ever since the final episode last season. It's Dharma making their return. This team's objective is to take out the hostiles before the rest of the scientists are sent.

Lock initiated this "rescue mission" when he entered 77 into the Flame station's computer.

If the mission was to secure the island from hostiles, the group would certainly have a larger militaristic orientation.

Perhaps ghost man is there to communicate with Jacob?

I loved the dustbuster ghostbuster.

This episode was chock full of tasty bizarreness.

I never thought about that! Fie... more to think about!!

There's like a 100 questions in this show that Ben should have the answers to and what info does he impart to this loyal audience of 3+ years who have waited nearly a year in between seasons for???

The resume' of someone who just arrived:mad:

Stay tuned next week when Sawyer dons a leather jacket and skiis:rolleyes:

I love this show.

So....I figure Ben can't be one of the Oceanic Six, so I'm wondering who the other two are. I figured after a while that was who was pulling Sayid's strings, but I'm a little shocked that Ben is off the island.

That girl sure played Sayid, huh? Well written.

Can't wait, as always, to see what happens next week.
