Something i noticed from lastnights episode

I think locke is a bad guy, in season 1, i remember locke speaking with walt about "in every game there is a good and bad side".. i believe walt is the good side and locke is the bad side, he's hiding something that is relavent to everything going on. Also, in this episode, if you'll notice he's writing on something with green chalk, when clair comes up to him, he puts the chalk in his backpack and that's it. BUT, when they show eko walking through the woods later in the episode, you see a tree clearly marked with green chalk, is locke making a path to somewhere? possibly to the others?

I'm still waiting for the episode that explains why Hurley hasn't lost any weight in the 50 days they've been on the island :D

As for last night's episode, it may not have had the others, or the smoke, or shooting, but it was still a worthy episode.

We had Eko marking trees that 'he likes'. Why? Is he going to start clearing jungle? Jack and Ana have been in and out of the jungle. What are they doing in there that has to do with Jack's 'army'? Why did Locke store the drugs instead of destroying them? Also, what was he doing with the door to that closet? Did he change the lock so that only he could get in? That could prove troublesome for next week when Jack wants those guns. What was up with the camera fixing at Locke at the very end of the episode?

Not every episode is going to be a wham, bam, run from the others, shoot people type episode.

green chalk? what green chalk? i don't remember anything about it... or seeing anything? can you point me out there?

on another note, it was interesting in some way, but expected more :D

Ok peole said the writers said that there was a clue in the skyline of something. anyone catch it?

battersea power station was the iconic building....there was some text but without hdtv and very clear screen you couldnt make it out :no:

I put a warning in the thread's title to forewarn anyone coming in here that we would be discussing plots that have aired in the US. So if that is all we are talking about I see no need to put those in spoiler tags. Sorry for those non-US fans, but it airs here first so... nyah, nyah... ;)

Now if you want to post something that has not yet aired, then please spoiler tag it.

On topic, I don't think Charlie set those fires at all - doesn't he still have the tape around his fingers? That was the first thing I noticed, the fire starter did not have the tape.

We can still "acquire" it though :shiftyninja: :D

I think Charlie went a bit overboard this episode and setting the fire was a bit too far. Nonetheless Mr Eko is a legend! :laugh:

^But he admitted to doing it.

This episode just made me feel sorry for Charlie. Locke's becoming more of an arrogant jack*** than anything else.

Did he? I must ahve missed that - oh well, toss that into the great big pile of theories that don't work. :)

Shhh... Neowin doesn't even want you to joke about that type of stuff anymore, so let's not even insinuate, ok?

I'm fairly sure the only time we see the tape on Charlie's fingers is during his first dream at the beginning of the episode.

That, and he confessed to setting the fire so he could distract everyone and grab Aaron in the confusion.

But, as someone mentioned, I don't think Charlie burned the trees Mr. Eko was marking. Charlie burned an area of mostly brush, while Eko seemed to be marking trees in the transition area from beach to jungle.

This is why I need DVR :crazy:

You can still see the ring Charlie is wearing on his right hand when he is lighting the fire and even when he is talking to Locke before he isn't wearing the so-called tape around his fingers.

Edited by Adrian

About Locke becoming arrogant. I think you're right. From the clips on next weeks episode we can see that he's going power hungry, hiding the weapons, and not wanting to tell Jack were are they.

One thing (of many :)) I don't get is, why Locke instead of destroying the Virgin Mary statues, locked them away????

more and more, it seems as if Locke is being set up as the antagonist, at least within the group of survivors. I can picture it coming down to 'Jack and those who want to fight' vs. 'Locke and those who want to reason'. The preview for next week already shows them about to throw down over the guns.

Charlie did not have tape on his hands when he was holding the baby. If you see the rings are the same for the person making the fire as charlie while holding the baby at the end of the show. I do not think they are the same trees as Eko marked. Eko's were closer to the water and beach with nothing between.

this episode made me feel sorry for charlie a bit and made me get annoyed at claire. just the way she shouts "my baby! my baby!" annoys the heck out of me. oh yeah and my liking for locke is also starting to go down. i liked it better when he went hunting and chucked knives at trees and stuff.

i agree with adrian. eko = legend. there need to be more ecko episodes.

i think locke kept the drug for medicinal use, like if somebody gets hurt, jack can ease the pain with it

Even in moderate controlled doses, heroin would probaby cause an addiction.

The last thing the island needs is another heroin addict or someone suffering withdrawal.

Few people take heroin and live to tell it.

morphine is basically the same as heroin is it not?

it might be useful for pain relief just like in hospital :yes:

After watching the episode, my only thought is that Locke was acting wiered. I can't really put my foot on it, but it's as if Locke acted completely different. He seemed more rash than usually. That's not to say that Charlie didn't deserve getting punched and all, but it seemed like Locke was out of character.

    • Microsoft further improving Windows 11 Taskbar with latest builds by Sayan Sen Microsoft has released new Windows 11 builds for users flighting the Experimental channels. The new builds are 26300.8758 for Windows 11 26H2, 28120.2374 for 26H1, and 29617.1000 for future platforms. There are improvements related to the Taskbar, File Explorer and more with the new update. The full changelogs are given below: First we have the build 26300.8758: Changes and improvements gradually being rolled out [Taskbar] Taskbar customization just got easier. As we continue to make improvements to the Taskbar experience mentioned last month, we've introduced a dedicated Taskbar Size setting, making it simpler to find, understand, and personalize your ideal taskbar experience. UI showing the new Taskbar Size setting in Settings. We've also made refinements to the transitions between taskbar sizes for a smoother overall experience. [File Explorer] We've improved the reliability of thumbnail previews for cloud files in the Details pane. The pane has also been reorganized so file properties are easier to find and review at a glance. Fixed an issue where the OneDrive shortcut in File Explorer stops working when File Explorer is run in administrative mode. Fixed an issue where the confirmation dialog might display an internal Recycle Bin file name instead of the original file name when permanently deleting a file. [Sounds] Improved system sounds when using Windows in dark mode. Up next we have build 28120.2374: Changes and improvements gradually being rolled out This update includes a small set of general improvements and fixes [Mobile Device Settings] You can add and manage your mobile devices in Settings under Bluetooth & Devices > Mobile Devices. On this page, you can manage features such as using your device as a connected camera or accessing your device's files in File Explorer. [Remote Recovery Management] Added a recovery remote management plug-in to extend WinRE management capabilities for MDM providers. [Input] The emoji panel (Windows key + period (.)) now uses GIPHY as the GIF provider, delivering a smoother GIF browsing and sharing experience following the deprecation of the Tenor API. Finally we have the changelog for Windows 11 build 29617.1000: Changes and improvements gradually being rolled out [Windows Update] As announced in the Windows Update announce blog, we are now bringing a new unified update experience to reduce the number of reboots you see per month. We are starting by coordinating driver, .NET, and firmware updates to align with the monthly quality update, reducing the update experience to a single monthly restart. See the blog for more information. [Windows Magnifier] Magnifier now gives you more control over how you zoom. You can type an exact zoom percentage directly in the magnifier toolbar to land on precisely the level you need. We've also added preset step increments (5%, 10%, 25%, 50%, 100%, 150%, 200%, and 400%) to the Settings dropdown, so you can jump to common levels in a single click. Whether you need a subtle boost or a dramatic close-up, Magnifier adapts to how you want to zoom. Enter an exact percentage or jump to preset steps —5% up to 400%. Feedback: Share your thoughts in Feedback Hub (WIN + F) under Accessibility > Magnifier. [Accessibility] We're introducing screen tint, a new accessibility setting that applies a color overlay across your entire display, softening its intensity so it's easier on your eyes throughout the day. If bright, saturated screens leave you with tired or sensitive eyes by the end of a long session, screen tint can help. Screenshot showing UI for screen tint in Accessibility, with color presets and a strength slider. To get started, open Settings > Accessibility (or press WIN + U) and look for screen tint under the Vision section. From there, you can: Pick from six preset colors or choose a custom color of your own. Adjust the tint strength slider from a subtle wash to full intensity. Night light warms your display to reduce blue light that can interfere with sleep. Screen tint reduces overall screen intensity to ease eye fatigue and light sensitivity during the day. They tackle different problems and you can use both at the same time, one working on warmth and the other on intensity. Note that turning on screen tint will disable color filters, and vice versa. If you currently rely on color filters, you might need to keep screen tint turned off. Feedback: Share your thoughts in Feedback Hub (WIN + F) under Accessibility > Narrator. [Voice Access] Voice Access now supports Portuguese (Portugal), Portuguese (Brazil), and Korean (South Korea). [Audio] Continuing our work on improving Sound Settings, we've made a few more updates in this build: We've adjusted the description text for the Allow option in properties for audio devices to include the current state of the device, to improve the clarity of the text and the purpose of the button actions. "Listen to this device" is now available in properties for audio devices, so you don't need to enter Control Panel for this functionality. [Multiple Desktops] Improved explorer reliability when switching between multiple desktops. [Storage] We've updated the dialog when creating a Dev Drive to now support specifying the size in GB instead of only MB. This has also been added when changing the size of volumes under Settings > System > Storage. [Personalization] This update improves color selection accuracy when adjusting your accent color to match your wallpaper when automatic accent color selection is enabled in Personalization settings. This update improves wallpaper persistence reliability across restarts and upgrades, including better support for large-resolution wallpapers and other scenarios to prevent solid color wallpaper fallback. [Display and Graphics] Improves the reliability and persistence of applying color profiles. You can view the official blog posts here (link1, link2, link3) on Microsoft's site.
