benac Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Excellent episode. It was the reason why i love lost. great episode.. and finally the John Locke mystery has been revealed! Sort of, we still don't know technically why he's walking right now. The box was a metaphor, I would consider it to be the essence or the "core" of the island's power. I think it would be to easy to think the smoke monster came out of the "box". Locke said he saw something beautiful when he saw the monster, Maybe the island "chose" Locke somehow. And Maybe Ben wants him to learn to control the smoke monster and the islands power somehow.

clonk Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Somehow I am also not very interested in Locke's flashback. He said he was in the Army/Marine, is that true.... that might be a better flashback!!The Jack-Others thing are MORE interesting, IMO "For all you know I could have been a sub commander in the navy" Then Ben goes onto say, "Oh I know all about you John..." Do you have these types of problems in understanding communication in general, day-to-day life?

Kaidiir Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Wow. Dropped a WTFbomb tonight, they did. Locke's dad on the island now? Personally I thought that was taking it a little far. But then again half the time I don't know what to think. Ale[y]x may have a larger part to play.

Adster Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 I loved tonights episode. Here's what I think... I don't think Locke blew up the Submarine. When he was walking back and got caught, he was completely soaked as if he had been swimming. I think he drove the Submarine somewhere else and made it look like he blew it up.

+Peewee210 Subscriber¹ Posted March 22, 2007 Subscriber¹ Share Posted March 22, 2007 (edited) That was a fantastic episode, loved every minute of it. It occurred to me when Ben mentioned the box, didn't Walt say something about a box in season 1. Telling Locke not to open it or was that the hatch? I swear box has been mentioned before. Also Alex thinks her mom is dead, to her she thinks that Ben is her biological father but after Sayid spoke to her she must have some doubt now and the others are covering something up about that.

Pallab Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Yeah there was no way they could wrap everything up by the end of season 3, too many loose ends.If they tried that, there would be just an episode or two saying "ok here is mystery 1, and heres the answer, here is mystery 2 and heres the answer to that..... " etc... Bring on Season 4 :D There would be atleast 5 seasons, and possibly even season 6. The thing that was in the box in my opinion was the smoke monster thing. Thats why it showed locke his dad, also, why ben said it could be anything you want. Interesting theory. Plausible, since Ben said box gives whatever you want. Somehow I am also not very interested in Locke's flashback. He said he was in the Army/Marine, is that true.... that might be a better flashback!!The Jack-Others thing are MORE interesting, IMO Locke has always been my favourite char. He signifies what I like about LOST - mystery. Locke centric episodes are generally superb, like this one was. This one was as good as it gets ( In Chandler Bings words : Could it be more better ). The ending was truely WTF. And wtf is happening in the promo? Sun getting nasty! Is someone slated to die?

When he was walking back and got caught, he was completely soaked as if he had been swimming. I think he drove the Submarine somewhere else and made it look like he blew it up. He was probably wet because he likely set the explosives on the outside of the submarine.

xcopmanx Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 (edited) The submarine wasn't visible in that last fram though, was it? I looked back at the video and I could not see the submarine when they tell Locke to get down on his knees. Maybe I just can't see it. The small white dot next to the door just seems to be a reflection of moonlight, I do not see the sub in its place as it was before.

oldaccount1 Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Watch the explosion. It clearly shows that it's localized from the circular hatch on the top.

Boffa Jones Veteran Posted March 22, 2007 Veteran Share Posted March 22, 2007 I found teh way he was crippled, pretty anti-climactic, but the rest of the episode was fantastic. I loved that Alex now knows about Danielle. I wonder what direction that is going to take.

ThePitt Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Oh, and I forgot. I almost die laughing when Ben (with his best Mac and Me face) say to Locke "We have a box here". LMAO. What a cheap trick. This sounds like that Family Guy ep, where Peter has to choose between a "box" and a boat. Oh, btw, yet another explosion!. This is getting like any Chuck Norris movies. Jungle and explosions!.

Pallab Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Yes. Hmm.. since next episode if about Nikki and Paulo, I guess it would be one of those two. Expos?> As the truth about Sun's kidnapping by "the Others" comes to her attention, Hurley becomes suspicious of Sawyer's attempt to reveal the mystery behind two fellow survivors, Nikki and Paulo. Through series of flashbacks we will discover what Nikki and Paulo were doing before the crash and how they survived 65 days on the island.

Blackice Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 wow, that was an amazing episode. I like how it shows the Others as not being so omniscient after all. I reckon Alex will free Sayid and Kate whilst trying to find out about her mother, and that Juliet will turn on the others, thinking that Ben orchestrated the submarine explosion (which he kind of did).

canuckerfan Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 this show is really starting to disappoint me. I feel like they're pulling farfetchd plot twists out of their ass , just to extend the series. since ratings are down, what might end up happening is that corporate sponsors and ABC are going to force the writers to end the series in like 1/2 season.
