You missed it.

Dude, week in, week out, you have trouble keeping up with the show.

I'd suggest purchasing seasons 1-3 on DVD and setting aside an 45 minutes, where you can watch LOST without any interruptions.

It's not a Sitcom. It requires patience and intense viewing.

Otherwise, you're LOST.

You know, it was an honest question. Do you have to attack everytime? This show has frustrated me since Season One. Tonight was the best episode since the end of season one as well.

I am sorry I don't live up to your LOST standards, but I am not going to go back and watch seasons 2 and 3 again when I thought they were a complete waste of my time the first time around.

I come to this thread when I have a question about something hoping someone will be kind enough to help out. If that is your idea of helping, it is NOT.

OH, and "week in week out?" WHAT? This is only the second time I have asked a question regarding the past. Who's not paying attention?

OK, I remember that. Thanks. I think I will just PM you when I have a brain lapse on this show since the other source of info just likes to belittle people.

**Bearcat** · 02-29-2008, 07:52 AM

Very good episode... it's hard to remember everything that's happened to Desmond, but it helped piece things together quite a bit. The signal from Penelope, the deja vu with Charlie in London, other stuff that came to mind last night but not this morning...

I don't know why anyone would have trouble following this show, with 10 new episodes every 6 months for the past 3 years... or why they wouldn't want to spend $120 and several hours on DVDs just to keep up with all the loose ends.

I'm a little confused with the time travel stuff.

Does this mean that the Desmond in present (2004) has no memory of anything from 1996-2004? The present Desmond on the ship was the guy from 1996 in the Army. He didn't seem to know any of the events between the two times. So, as it stands now the Desmond on the ship could go back to the real world and just claim he was in a yacht race and was stranded on an island for years (someone will have to tell him that). He wouldn't have a recollection of anything else, correct?

schneider221 · 02-29-2008, 10:45 AM

when desmond calls sayid by name at the end i believe that is a sign he has his memory back

The Rick · 02-29-2008, 11:03 AM

I thought it was a good episode last night. It may not have completely answered any questions, but it gave hints and begins to lead us down a certain path.

The thing that I thought was interesting was that the whole time travel thing wasn't physical time travel (i.e. Back To The Future), more like time travel of the mind.

Dude, whether it sounded like it or not, it was a friendly suggestion.

Go to Amazon or Ebay or Half.com and pick up a used version of Seasons One-Three. They're usually less than $20.00 and they may help to clear up some of your questions.

**DaneMcCloud** · 02-29-2008, 03:19 PM

Another amazing, revealing episode:

1. For the first time throughout the series, we see the "sickness" that Danielle mentioned during the first season (resulting in her murdering her shipmates).

2. The Black Rock makes another appearance though this time, the Hanso family is directly connected to the ship.

3. Mr. Widmore (Penny's father) is definitely involved with the island and Dharma. Is he the man that Sayid was sent to kill?

4. Desmond HAS been traveling to the present and the future (just like in last year's episode) which clearly explains why he was trying to protect Charlie. He KNEW he was going to die because he'd been there each time (I'm expecting a future episode to reveal their true relationship).

5. Who is Ben's "Man on the ship"? It's clearly not Minkowski. I still think it's Michael.

I'll take you word for it though your wording was not very good. There are shows I would invest money in to own LOST is not one of them.

Still don't see why you couldn't just answer that one simple question like Cro did. Cleared it all up for me as I remember the reason now. The only thing this show slipped past me was the time travel thing, and from what I have read, a lot of people have missed that.

Your insinuation that I am asking pointless questions week-in and week-out was WAY out of bounds though.

Dude, no offense but I really don't understand your interest in this show and why you keep asking questions. You've stated that you have no desire to watch Seasons Two or Three again (and EVERY episode provides clues about the Island and it's nature, however minute), you don't seem to follow the premise (see below) and you get offended when you ask for answers.

Three words for you: Time travel.

I'll try to be "less" sarcastic when you ask questions in the future.

Or will I?

Lost imo is shaping up to be the best TV show to ever be made.
