LOST Season 5 *Spoiler Edition* - Maggers - 04-05-2009
I am all caught up, and my oh my, I LOVE THIS SHOW!
The magic box is not literal, it is a metaphor.
Kate did the absolute right thing leaving Aaron with his grandmother. It was so touching to see her say goodbye to her "adopted" son. I believe that her experience as a mother for those 3 years is what prompted her to want to save Ben, a child who was in trouble.
I don't think any of the regulars were acting strangely in not responding as they usually might have. It looks to me like their behavior is finally manifesting the impact of all they have experienced in their time on and off The Island. I think they are all growing and changing and doing what they need to do to grow up, to become the people they were not when the show began. They are fulfilling their individual potentials.
Sayid is tragic. I know that in most films and books, a character who perpetrates so much harm as Sayid has must have his comeuppance. There is always a price to be paid, a balance to be struck. But I pray that is not the case here. While Sayid has done awful things, I do not see him as an awful person, not at all. He is constantly fighting himself and seems to be losing that fight at every turn. But the is flawed, not evil. I cannot wait to see his redemption scene, because it will come. He will wind up sacrificing himself in some spectacular way, I suspect. And we will cry when he does.
Jack is calming down. Hurray for that.
Hurley is wising up, or at least expressing his wisdom in his usual Hurley-like way, which is always fun.
Miles and Hurley are the perfect foils for one another. I loved that time travel conversation because it asked and attempted to answer the questions we all have been asking. Still, the headaches continue as I try to figure it all out. So I have stopped trying to figure it out.
Sawyer is becoming the man, the mensch, he has always been under all that bravado and self-hatred.
All of the survivors are coming into their own. Sit back and watch them blossom and enjoy the show.
How many more episodes do we have left this season? I've gotten lost in LOST, yet again.
Oh, and where oh where is little Daniel Faraday? Is he working with the construction folks who are building the Orchid Station, as we saw in the first episode of this season? Hmmm......

About Radzinsky, the angry guy in charge of the Flame Station in 1977....
Could he be the same Radzinsky who blew his brains out on the ceiling of the hatch where Desmond lived and pushed the button for so many years. Remember Desmond was rooming with Kelvin Inman, the US army man who introduced Sayid to torture. Inman showed Desmond where Radzinsky, I think that was the name he used, blew his brains out on the ceiling of the hatch and left him alone until Desmond came along.

I think you're correct about Radzinsky. Did we ever find out how long Desmond was in the hatch total? I seem to remember 4 years total, with maybe 3 on his own.

I thought it was 3 years, but could be 3 or 4 or thereabouts. I'll have to re-watch the scene where Desmond yelled that he'd wasted X number of years on that damned Island and he wasn't going back. He screamed that at Mrs. Hawking as she attempted to explain to the survivors and Ben how to get back to the Island.

Another thing that has me wondering. Dharma still makes food/supply drops to the island as we saw one night when the Oceanic survivors discovered them. Did Dharma just supply Desmond....even though they don't know who's pushing the button...or at least did. Do they think there are still Dharma people there? All those little details...enough to give me a headache...lol
What I want to know really....how does Ben get that beating? How hard of a journey will it be for Sun to get "back" to Jin......and how they'll do it.

About Farady, wasn't there a comment that Sawyer made while bringing Hurley, Jack and Kate in about Faraday. Jack asked about faraday and I though Sawyer said "was" or something like that? I'm not sure.
LOST Season 5 *Spoiler Edition* - Alvin Fox - 04-05-2009
I remember Sawyer saying that Faraday's "not here" and then nothing else has been mentioned about him. I think it's weird that Jack, Kate and Hurley never asked where everyone else is. Red shirts, Rose, Bernard. Or are they assuming everyone else is dead, Faraday among them?

The last we saw of Daniel, he was edging away as Juliet and Sawyer shot the Others to save the woman with curly hair whose husband had been shot.
Sawyer's comment about Daniel when asked about his whereabouts was vague but seemed to hint that Daniel was ... well, trouble.
We shall see, I'm sure.

Everyone remember last years finale was called "Frozen donkey wheel" and come to find out the name described the finale (in a way) well this years season finale has been announced as being named "The Incident". Also I guess the key scene in the finale is titled "The fork in the Socket".
So what does everyone think this may mean is coming up? Anybody think baby Aaron is going to have a run in with death when he puts a fork in a wall socket?
This first made me think of the House episode where he sticks a knife in the socket to induce a near death experience.

I stand by my guess that, eventually, the volcano will be involved. That may not be till the final year.
I think this year the finale will be built around Ben. Just a guess. Specifically what will "The Incident" be or who will put "the fork in the socket," well, I have no clue.
