We did learn that Kate didn't want to go back. Then, it was cemented by the appearance of Creepy Claire that Aaron shouldn't go back either.

Considering how pissed she was at Jack saying "we shouldn't have left", being pissed about "we have to go back" doesn't strike me as a giant revelation.

*shrug* it was a throwaway comment. I didn't find it as a giant revelation either. I was more freaked out by Creepy Claire. I'm just sad it came to this. I loved Claire and now she gives me the heebie jeebies.

Nice how they had Claire appear in a dream, eh? Leaves whether she is dead or alive rather open.

I was very happy to "see" Mr. Eko again. Heh.

I bet she was tapping ol' Charles because he found the island once, he can find it again, and she wants to go back and find Jin (she doesn't seem like she was particularly willing to accept that he's dead).

It seemed to me that she's bent on revenge against Ben and using Widmore would be the best way to accomplish that. Although it a good point that he found the island once so finding it again may be best left to him.

I think her initial grief and denial in the helicopter was common initial shock and grief for that situation. It seems pretty evident that he's dead, but who knows?

This is how much this show is not like the others. That scene, the opening scene of this year's finale, was a continuation of the end of last year's finale. An entire year has passed connecting two halves of a scene!

I love Lost!

Yes, I know, I just wish that the second half was actually interesting and not pointless.

I'm not sure about that. If Locke was making the rounds to all of the Oceanic 6, it may have come out that Ben was responsible for the ship's explosion. Maybe she is hoping Widmore will lead her to Ben.

BTW it's Jeremy Bentham, not Lantham (for your lostpedia searches).

I liked the episode. We've now got not only the doings on the island to watch, but the current off-the island antics...and what happened to the people on the small boat that pointy-faced geek boy was driving? I know that they were extras, but perhaps only extras for the moment...I think we haven't seen the last of him.

I love the ghost-sensing asian guy. He got to roll his eyes at Rose and the red-head in this one, both great bits.

That was one depressing episode. As soon as Jin took off running you just knew he'd see the helicopter take off.

Sun said they weren't the only ones to leave the island. Perhaps the rafties managed to land on some island too.

Now we know how the O6 were derived and who the other 2 were that "didn't make it".

Walt. HUGE! But it was nice to see him.

Where did Sayid and Hurley end up going?

Creepy Claire was creepy. And pissed.

I completely agree with Gn2Dlnd. I loved that they connected the scenes and showed us who was in the coffin.

RStar, I think it will be a new online game. It was a commercial in the last few minutes of the show. After I heard "volunteers" I looked up and saw it said "sponsored by ABC Inc".

Did anyone watch Good Morning America to get the alternate endings?
