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.

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.

    • Onkyo Dolby Atmos AV receivers are really solid deals by Sayan Sen Recently we covered great deals on several soundbar models from the likes of Sony, JBL, Samsung and others for really good prices (the lowest in several months). Aside from that we also reported on the Edifier S3000MKII, a hi-fi two-way bookshelf monitor that's available for only $800. Today we bring a list of AV receivers from Onkyo that are available at great prices including the Onkyo NR7100, RZ30, and 8470 (purchase links under the specs table down below). The Onkyo TX-NR7100 and Onkyo TX-RZ30 are both 9.2-channel AV receivers designed for immersive home theater setups but they occupy slightly different tiers within Onkyo’s lineup with the RZ30 positioned as the more advanced model. The TX-NR7100 is a THX Certified 9.2-channel receiver offering up to 100 W per channel (8 ohms, 2 channels driven). It supports Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and IMAX Enhanced formats, with flexible configurations such as 5.1.4 or 7.1.2 speaker layouts. A key highlight is its built-in Dirac Live Room Correction which should help optimize sound based on your room and its acoustics. In comparison, both models share several core capabilities though the RZ30 is geared toward enthusiasts seeking more precise calibration and system flexibility, while the NR7100 is positioned as a slightly more accessible, value-focused option with strong all-round performance. The technical specs of the RZ30 and NR7100 9.2 AVRs are given in the table below: Specification Onkyo TX-RZ30 Onkyo TX-NR7100 Power Output (FTC, 2ch driven) ~100 W/ch (8Ω, 20Hz–20kHz, 0.08% THD) 100 W/ch (8Ω, 20Hz–20kHz, 0.08% THD) Dynamic / Peak Power 9 × 170 W (6Ω, 1kHz, 1% THD, 1ch driven) 220 W/ch (6Ω, 1kHz, 10% THD, 1ch driven) Frequency Response 5 Hz – 100 kHz (+1/-3 dB) 10 Hz – 100 kHz (+1/-3 dB) THD 0.08% 0.08% Room Correction Dirac Live (full bandwidth) Dirac Live (with AccuReflex support) Immersive Audio Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, IMAX Enhanced Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, IMAX Enhanced Speaker Layout Support Up to 7.2.2 / 5.2.4 / 9.2 processing Up to 7.2.4 / 5.2.4 / 9.2 processing HDMI Inputs / Outputs 6 inputs / 2 outputs (eARC) 6 inputs / 2 outputs (Main + Sub/Zone 2) HDMI 2.1 Support 8K/60, 4K/120, VRR, ALLM, QFT, DSC, eARC 8K/60, 4K/120, VRR, ALLM, QFT, DSC, eARC Video Formats HDR10+, Dolby Vision, HDCP 2.3 HDR10+, Dolby Vision, HDCP 2.3 Streaming / Network Wi-Fi, AirPlay 2, Chromecast, Bluetooth, DTS Play-Fi Wi-Fi, AirPlay 2, Chromecast, Bluetooth, DTS Play-Fi Get them at the links below: Onkyo TX-RZ30 9.2-Channel AV Receiver: $797.00 (Sold and shipped by Electronic Expo) Onkyo TX-NR7100 9.2-Channel AV Receiver: $699.00 (Sold and shipped by Adorma) Onkyo TX-8470 2 Ch Stereo Receiver: $449.00 (Sold and Shipped by Adorma) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • A different thing with Russia. When you say is it better, depends on things. It is better that we don't have the E.U making rules and laws that have nothing to do with them. Is the trading part better? No, that is really mucked up, but then we knew that was going to happen and we would have make agreements, like we do with other parts of the world. Freedom of movement is certainly better, but could be improved, we still need more control over our borders. do you live in the U.K?
    • So what am I quoting from them? I never listened to what Farage or his cronies said. I wanted the U.K to leave the E.u years before the referendum and it had nothing to do with Farage and his cronies. So what country do you live in? Did we work much better together? We were always at logger heads with the E.U because we disagreed with them so much. Maggie was always on at them. I would have thought the E.U was glad to get rid of us as we stopped the integration or made it a two tier. Now without us they can integrate more. I would not have voted out if it was just a trading block and we can still work together on somethings.

    • Apple reportedly looks to blacklisted Chinese memory chips as RAM prices climb by Karthik Mudaliar Image via Apple Apple is reportedly trying to get a clearance from the Trump administration to buy memory from ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT) to get some relief from soaring DRAM prices. As per a report by the Financial Times, Apple approached the Commerce Department more than a month ago and also spoke to other officials and allies in Washington. For starters, CXMT is a company that's already been placed on the Pentagon's list of Chinese military companies. The Chinese company is the country's top DRAM maker. For Apple, the timing is certainly awkward but not surprising. Tim Cook had recently warned that Apple would have to raise prices because AI companies are buying up large amounts of memory for data centers, and just like that, Apple raised MacBook and iPad prices. Micron also recently revealed that customers have committed billions of dollars to secure memory supply years in advance, which shows us how aggressive securing infrastructure has become. This gives suppliers such as Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron more leverage, while pushing hardware makers to look for alternatives. CXMT is one of those alternatives, but not the simplest one. Apple has spent many years trying to diversify parts of its supply chain away from China, especially for final assembly, while still depending heavily on Chinese manufacturing and suppliers. Even domestic brands from China are moving towards CXMT and YMTC instead of relying on Samsung, Micron, and SK Hynix. For Apple, though, it would invite more scrutiny than local Chinese companies. For now, this is more like a lobbying effort rather than a confirmed supply deal. There's no official statement from either of the parties. What is clearer, though, is the pressure behind such a request. AI demand has certainly made hardware a bottleneck, and companies are trying everything they can to bring things back to normal, even if that means making politically sensitive choices.
