I found it a tad hokey myself.....kinda reminded me of Light Magic

After last nights episode one does wonder what Ben's purpose is now.....follow Locke around like a puppy dog? He's been forbidden to attempt to usurp Locke anymore and since it appears that Locke really doesn't need Ben's help finding anything at this point just where does he fit in?

Is he simply just another "other"? A mere member of Locke's flock? If so, why did he even bother coming back to the Island? Seems to me he'd have more fun if he just left Locke, the Island et al....take his toys and go home so to speak:

Maaaybe Ben should just YAGE:

How might that go:

Well I'm gonna go then! And I don't need any of this! I don't need this stuff, and I don't need you. I don't need anything except this and that's it and that's the only thing I need, is this. I don't need this or this. Just this picture of me and Alex. And this gun, the picture of me and Alex and the gun and that's all I need. And this donkey wheel. The picture of me and Alex, the gun and this donkey wheel, and that's all I need. And this Ajira water bottle. The picture of me and Alex, and this Ajira water bottle, and the donkey wheel and the gun. And this doll. The picture of me and Alex, this gun and the donkey wheel and the doll and that's all I need. And that's all I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one - I need this! The gun, and the black baton thing, and the doll, and the Ajira water bottle, for sure. Well what are you looking at? What do you think I am, some kind of a jerk or something? And this! And that's all I need. The picture of me and Alex, the gun, the donkey wheel, this black baton thing and the doll.

He said, "If you want your daughter to live," which I took to mean that if Rosseau followed the whispers as a way to find her daughter, they would kill her daughter. I don't know. I've been wrong many times about this show.

I did not think of the comment in that light. Perhaps it was a threat.

And what are those whispers? Where do they come from? What are they saying?

Perhaps we have yet to learn what "bad things" Dharma has done. We know they lied to Ben's father about what they needed him on the island for. Maybe they killed puppies.

I finally watched last night's episode




FVCK! That was good!


I love me some resurrected Locke!

Locke was awesome.

We watched it and then when my son came home I had to sit quietly while he watched it...so that I wouldn't blow it for him.
Loved when Sun saw Locke through the window.

My theory on the same scenes with slightly different dialogue. Who's to say that it's not them but in just slightly different times. Like they keep getting sent back to the same place, and since they are the same people the outcome is the same but they don't say the exact same thing each time they're there. Does that make any sense?

Exactly!!!

...and another thing;

The radio transmitting the numbers; when the 815 ers's arrived it was one voice; when the French arrived it was a different voice(perhaps Hurleys) and when 316 arrived it was a third voice.

No way these are production errors in that there are 3 seperate voices...it had to be done purposefully and for a reason.

Are we witnessing 3 Seperate Realities or are people constantly changing the recording? If the latter, why?

I am watching Through the Looking Glass and the code that Charlie has to enter is the corresponding numbers/notes to Good Vibrations. They said it was programmed by a musician. Could that musician be Charlie?
