Well there was a number of directions they could have gone with the rovers, I was speaking more about the toy ones from the episode prior to this one. They kept hitting you over the head with them, and the fact that in these past two episodes everyone was calling Sam "Spaceman" made me realize last week exactly what

It's better than this one.

Who's to say that they don't have foresight as far as Adam and Eve? We still have a few more episodes left in this season and a whole 6th season to get through.

@Guitarjelly: I actually that that was what he was going to do, maybe not so bluntly but just be like "Good morning, Ben." and Ben would just stare at him scared.

The Island demands a snackrifice.

Maybe the reason that DI hates the Hostiles so much is because they killed the doctors?

Truly the longest con.

If you did not see this ending coming from the minute they showed the mini-rovers
you missed one of the most obvious plot twists ever.

I'm guessing she told Cassidy just that they crashed on the Island and that some of the facts were fudged, but probably not all the crazy fantasy stuff, and she told Claire's mom an even shorter version of that, just that Claire lived and went missing.

No, it really didn't if you think of it in the sense that it has all happened before.

…Wednesday?

@Hayley: I don't remember. That episode made it seem like he allowed the Others to do what they did, and that they wouldn't have been able to without his help, and I always figured that it was around that time that he was/became their leader. I mean, he would have had to have planned part of it since it did rely on

Kind of off topic, but I always enjoyed the flashbacks better when I imagine that the reason they are happening is because the characters are thinking of that moment and how it relates to their current situation. When they switched format to the flashforwards and flashsideways I felt weird about it, but now,

This episode was a good reminder of exactly how far the characters have come. Old Jack would have done anything he possibly could to make himself look better for Kate, but New Jack has been so completely crushed by the women in his life (since both Juliet and Kate basically left him for Sawyer) that he utterly does

Locke has had a bit of an evil glint in his eye ever since he came back to the Island, and has taken a more proactive role in his life than just letting the Island tell him what to do. Maybe I'm reading too much into the few on-Island scenes he's had this season. Then again this is also his third time being brought

Someone mentioned last week the possibility of all the events that are happening to the Survivors are happening at parallel times, something like that, so I tried to see some connections to that in tonight's episode. Sayid shooting Ben probably happened at the same time Sun knocked him out, and Ben's reawakening

I'm pretty sure it's going to be primarily in the present and involve the final struggle between Widmore and Ben.

Frak, that's one theory down the toilet.
I thought for sure that somehow Ben would pull through without the aid of the Others and that Roger's apparent newfound love for his son would cause Ben to not initiate The Purge. It could easily explained by Ben having "broken the rules", making him "special" like Desmond who

DMB also had a Magic Brownie Ben and Jerry's flavor, no kidding.

We sell spatulas..AND THAT'S ALL.
