New season... discuss away!

[Majin Dan]

consider it popped!

[godsent]

I thought the first episode was REALLY confusing!!

Which timeline is the real one?!?!??!?!?!?!!?

SO CONFUSED!! Maybe it'll be answered in the next one!

I really wish the timeline with the Losties on the Island is the real one. Cuz it would be really stupid if the Island is underwater with the 815ers safely in their destinations!


1 Question that bugged me throughout the first episode was: Why would Hurley be on the plane? He went to Australia to search for the origins of The Numbers because he believed that he was unlucky b/c of the numbers. But he says to sawyer that he was the luckiest man alive. so i cant think of any reason for him to be is Australia...

[Weston]

Perhaps more importantly, Desmond is onboard?...

(Excuse me if this was covered, my reception of the stream cut for about 10 mins lol)

[Majin Dan]

Yeah the desmond part didn'tmake sense...

[Weston]

Wait wait wait... I don't even know if what I'm watching is live anymore but

Spoiler

is Sayid really dead? I read something about that once but didn't ever believe it!

Things have changed; that's the whole point. Presumably because of the ad and stuff he had a chain in Australia for his business; it's an alternate reality.

Awesome episode, I really enjoyed it. Nice to see there is other people on the island.

So... if Richard was on the pirate ship, he was tied up for some reason... is Sayid really Sayid? And why was the water in the temple dirty, was it something to do with the island being under the influence of MIB/Smokey instead of Jacob?

I love how Hurley told the others that Jacob was dead... he was just like "oh, you didn't know?"

I presume it means he was one of the slaves.

He must be like how when young Ben was "changed" after he was saved in the temple.

I really liked the episode. It was kind of sad seeing the alternate reality, with locke being a cripple, and kate being a criminal, and charlie being a junkie, etc. It makes you wonder why exactly they wanted to change things.

[Ben's Apprentice]

This ep didnt make any since and what was with the random asian?

[Ben's Apprentice]

I think that the reality with the Losties in the airport will eventually lead them back to the island.

[alexandra robles]

I didnot like this episode.

[aggiefan08]

I loved this episode!!! I really enjoyed the Locke and Jack scene, maybe Jack can fix him! lol

That random asian is that dude man! I like that character. And he seems to be the one giving orders in the temple.

Cool episode, leaves me wanting so much more. I also thought why Hurley would be on the plane if he believed himself lucky instead of unlucky, but him being there on business makes sense. I was sad seeing Charlie getting arrested but at least he'll be alive in that reality. Speaking of realities, both of them are real, I think when people think about time travel and alternate realities being protrayed on television they think because one timeline or reality is being shown that it's the only one that exists. They changed things by stopping the swan station energy from being released, and created an alternate reality, but the other reality we've had 5 seasons in still exists. I dont know if theyre going to show the alternate reality all season, but I think its just filler, the producers just wanted to show how things would have been if the plane didnt crash and now we get to see, personally I dont care much to see what could have been different, it seems pretty irrelevant after having 5 seasons of stories develop, and again I think it's serving as filler since our primary reality might have a few days in it at the most since the Others are preparing to go to war against Flocke/Smokey, with the alternate reality stuff cut out, they probably wouldnt have had 18 episodes for this season, but we'll wait and see how much alt. reality stuff we get.

I'm very glad our 77' Losties got back to the present, now Jin can get back to Sun and we can have more Locke vs. Jack, I mean Flocke vs. Jack

I am disappointed that Locke was really just used and his life turned out to be pathetic, as Flocke described him, he was one of my favorite characters and I was hoping for him to have some great resolution as a character but oh well

I cant wait to see Richards back story and everything, Flocke kicking his ass and carrying him off was great and i cant wait to hear their conversation.

I dont get why they couldnt change Jacks hair back to the way it was in season 1, if you noticed Jin's hair was changed back, it was short like in season 1, so why couldnt they do the same with Jack? Well in the season 5 finale we see Jacks hair being longer during that surgey where he met Jacob, so maybe he kept it long in the alt timeline? Idk, I just noticed Jin's hair being corrected.

I wonder if we'll see Rose and Bernard again, at least in the primary reality on the island, I doubt it since they pretty much swore off the rest of the Losties already and wanted nothing to do with any of them.

Great episode, cant wait for next week!!!! :-D

[Jin-Kwon]

I like how Boone&Locke shook hands. And imagine if in the other universe Jack operates on Locke and makes him walk again.

[LockeUp]

Well I think it's pretty obvious now that the Man in Black/Smokey is Locke. Kind of funny thinking about that and reading some of the theories that refuted that.

I think you are spot on...
