I'm really happy with that episode, its about time we got some answers!

- You can't kill yourself off the island, the island won't allow it

- The top others can get off the island when they like

- The others allowed Walt to go back to normal life

- People who aren't the oceanic 6 are allowed off the island, but can't reveal themselves due to the press of it

- Getting off the island does not equal the end of that characters saga

What I really liked about it was the fact they finally confirmed the island is magical, atleast now we know theres no point trying to find some scientific explanations to what things are (smokie, the room with what you want in it).

What we saw of Michael was pre-Oceanic Six, so there's nothing showing that other survivors can get off the island, only that Ben was able to get off somehow.

- You can't kill yourself off the island, the island won't allow it

Actually I think Mr. Friendly jammed that gun when he was holding it in the dark alley. He did ask later "So did the gun jam on you?" Seem too coincidental IMO. Besides I don't think the island can exert its "powers" on people when they are no longer on the island.

Surpose so, it just seemed like something was wrong with that episode. I expected to see more of Walt, or how they actually left the island, was there any point that Libby was showing up? Just seemed a bit of a let down.

The point of Libby being there was to emphasize on Michael's guilt for what he did, and his reason for being Ben's spy, so that he can redeem himself.

Eh I doubt it. Michael could've very well have taken his gun and shot himself and the result would've likely been the same.

GUYS and Gals has this season been more harder to figure out than the previous seasons?

Was it really necessary to post this three times?

No, it's not harder to follow. It's obvious what is a flashback and a flash forward. Happy?

I find it harder because of the flashes going in the future and back and then back to present.I got another question guys is the flashes in the future the true future or is it just one future we may be seeing for some of the chars?

Also does anyone have a idea if the guys on the ship are good or if ben is good or are people still trying to figure that out?

I got another question guys is the flashes in the future the true future or is it just one future we may be seeing for some of the chars?

Daniel - "You can't change the future" unless your Desmond...

The producers said what we see in the future, will be the future

oh didnt know that ok than I guess the question is is ben good or bad lol.I have a feeling ben is good.

From what we have been shown, Ben looks to be the good guy, but we never know with Ben...

The ABC Official Podcast

Summary.

*Shocking twist for the finale will not be the final scene, but close to the end of the episode.

*Oceanic Six are Jack, Kate, Hurley, Sayid, Sun, and Aaron.

*Tom (Mr. Friendly) is indeed gay.

*Desmond/Minkowski "side effects" may indeed be the "Sickness" that Rouseau refers to... (they hint at it very strongly)

*The Swan Hatch implosion will probably not be revisited. However, we have not seen the last of the "purple sky" this season.

*They explain the appearance of certain paranormal events and what they are....

Ben's mother=apparition

Sawyer's Boar=animal

Spider=monster

Hurley bird=no comment

Dave=apparation/imagination

Yemi=Monster

Kate's horse=undead

Mikail' Cat Nadia=animal

Walt=some have been apparition, some have been monster

Boone in Locke's dream=dream

*Lepidus name in Expose script that Hurley read is just a name one of the writers in fond of.

*Is Aaron in danger since he is being "Raised by Another"? The psychic told Claire that she must raise the baby herself. They leave it up to the viewers if you believe if the psychic is real or not.

*Significance of name Kevin Johnson.....the Others chose the most innocuous and bland name they could so as not to raise suspicion and raise attention to Michael's alias.

*Will learn much more about four-toed statue and Black Rock.

*Secret code name for the finale twist "The Frozen Donkey Wheel"

There's a problem with the link you posted, and that is that the guy is talking about speaking, not what you're typing in a forum. Since this is not a verbal discussion, the words you type are all that we have to go by, including your punctuations and emphasis on words, such as: I REALLY liked What they showed US this time!!!!!!! What we're imagining is you fluctuating what you're saying with the capitalized words and letters, as if you're excited in what you're saying, especially with the redundant amount of exclamation points. You said you weren't going to stop typing like that, and like I said before, don't get upset or bent out of shape when people do tell you to calm down, because that is exactly how you're coming across, as if you're not calm. Notice the emphasis on not? That's just like me saying it louder, and your posts are no different, hence us telling you to: calm down.

Your post above is a great example. You have *SIGH*, like an exacerbated and annoyed sigh, not a simple *sigh*. Do you see the difference? If you're calm, type as if you're calm. :)

On Tom being gay: I wasn't shocked really, they all but confirmed it in a podcast either last season or the season before last, can't remember when it was.

It seemed out of place though. The kiss anyway. Seemed forced, like it didn't belong.

Maybe it was sometime during the beginning of the third season when he told Kate, "You're not my type."

    • Microsoft will finally let you sign in to Edge with a Google account by Usama Jawad As things currently stand, Microsoft Edge only allows you to sign in to the browser with a Microsoft Account (MSA). This allows you to sync your browser settings and other data across other devices, as long as you sign in with the same account. However, Microsoft is now modifying this mechanism in a way that will likely please many users. In an update to its Microsoft 365 Roadmap, Microsoft has indicated that it will soon let users sign into Edge using a Google account from the profile menu and the Edge sign-in screen. This will be in addition to the MSA login option, and it opens up new doors for people who prefer using Edge, but cannot be bothered to configure a Microsoft account. This brings several advantages such as the ability to sync your data across devices using just a Google account. It may even facilitate flexible single sign-on (SSO) experiences where you can quickly login to websites and services through a single Google account that is presented as the preferred sign-in option. Up until now, Microsoft allowed customers to indirectly use a Google account, by configuring a Google account as a Microsoft account, or by setting up a one-way sync option between Edge and Chrome. This is a rather interesting development, especially considering that Google Chrome still limits you to a Google account sign-in, but it will be interesting to see if the company reciprocates Microsoft's gesture in the future. This is not the only recent instance in which Microsoft has extended a handshake to Google via Edge. In April 2026, it began tracking the development of a work search banner for Google Search queries, just like the one present in Edge. However, if we go back almost seven years, to January 2020, Microsoft had emphasized that it had no plans to "integrate Google services into Microsoft Edge by default", in response to people requesting Google sign-in services on Edge. Fast-forward to today, and Microsoft is planning to release this feature in July 2026, with IT admins having the option to control its availability on Windows and macOS through the NonMicrosoftAccountSignInEnabled policy.
