Namaste

*Editor's Note: I've been exhausted since the Wicked Trip, so I'm using that as my excuse for the late Lost article. Hopefully I'll have everything on time next week!

Namaste- "I bow to you". That's what it literally means. It has it's roots in the Hindu relgion. Hinduism also features 2 concepts called karma and DHARMA. Hmmm... I've been saying for a long time (well actually about a year) that the Dharma Initiative was named for a specific reason. I think it's great that we're in this time period so we can find out more about this mysterious group.

You know what's also mysterious? Why did Lapidus land the plane without it crshing? The island must really like him, or maybe is mad he didn't fly the plane on 9/22/04. Or maybe the island didn't want him to fly the plane becuase he would be dead and wouldn't be able to complete his mission, if he has one. And the most obvious question: Why is Sun the only person of the Oceanic 6 in the present? (not including Aaron, if he is indeed in the present).

So, Sawyer is in charge more or less, and it's killing Jack. You can really tell. Now how is he going to react to actually seeing Sawyer with Juliet? Is he going to run to Kate, just like Kate ran to him oh so many times?

And what about my boy Christian Shepheard. What a religous name. What's his deal? I think he may actually be Jacob. I think Jacob is considered the god of the island, so the allusion would make sense. You can see religion is big on Lost. I'm sure we'll find out more about it soon. But anyway, he just likes to appear out of nowhere. But he's dead. Yet his body was not in that coffin in Season 1. So is he alive like Locke? Are these 2 characters one in the same?

Sayid is captured. Yes he is. You know it's fake though because anyone who knows Sayid know thathe would have that guy in the DHARMA station in a full nelson in 2 seconds flat. And then he meets little creepy Ben. I say creepy because the kid looks just like older Ben. Wierd, isn't it?

Before I sign off, I'd just like to probe a theory. What if these people are back in the 70's to kill Ben and stop The Purge? What if the island wasn't happy with it's choosing of Ben to be the leader, and wants The Survivors to stop from happening. Just a thought.

Top 3 Questions I want answered:
1). Why is Sun in the present and not in the 70s?
2). What happened to everyone the night before they came back?
3). How are they going to fix this like Christian said?

  1. Thanks for a good recap of the last episode of Lost, which is one of my favorite "Mystery" Shows. I can't answer the questions but I do remember that Ben was also on the plane and didn't get transported back in time. My question is what will Sun find when she reaches the main island? Will this put her back in time or will it be just as it was when she left? After all the whole island has been set back in time. Maybe we will learn the answers in the next episode. Will be back to read more...
