Is it just me or the Taweret foot that was shown underwater was the "left foot", not the remaining one on the Island (which's the right foot) ?

It was the left foot in both timelines:

Obviously there are differences in how the toes round, the foundation is built, but I don't think those are pertinent to the main questions: who built it, why, and what happened to it, among others.

Hmm, I don't know about tonight's episode. It was a decent episode, but it didn't feel like an episode that belonged in the final season. It felt almost fillerish IMO. Maybe I'm subconsciously comparing it to last week's premiere and it is hard to live up premieres and finales.

The date on Claires sonogram said 10/22/2004. Wasn't the plane supposed to crash in September?

Good spot, however who said this alternative time-frame is exactly the one before?

It's interesting how Claire (and possibly Sayid) are now going to suffer the fate of Rousseau's former crew members.

Speaking of Ethan, that does pose the interesting question: how did he get recruited to Othersville? Was he "tricked" like Juliet.

And now that we know some of the Others didn't make it to the island before it hit the bottom of the ocean, it begs the question, where is Juliet in this timeline? Will Sawyer run into her?

The possibilities are endless and it shows that these people are still connected, even without the island.

Today and last week's episode also showed that the characters experience deja-vu in some degrees.

This week, Kate saw Jack while taking the taxi cab and seemed to flinch and she did it again when hearing the name Aaron.

anyone else get frustrated when there is a moment like tonight when the asian guy gives the "big reveal" moment. You here the music get all suspenseful and Jack says "but how do you know" and your on the edge of your seat waiting for the big moment, and then it happens and your excitement peaks and then you quickly think to yourself "wtf does that even mean"...lol

But did Horace ever make it to the island? Horace wasn't part of the Others, but rather the leader of DHARMA, so the question would be, did DHARMA ever make it to the island at all?

[edit] Errr... yes, I know that was a stupid comment. It has been a long day - I wasn't thinking that comment out clearly. Forgive me :( Probably one of the reasons I didn't thoroughly enjoy this episode.

I did notice that. Last week was Jack asking Desmond if they knew each other, but to some extent that could also be from where he met Desmond jogging at the stadium. We don't know if that ever happened in this timeline, but it is possible.

Blasted Biggs! I hope we are done with Kate centric episodes. It was better than last years, but I still can't stand her. Kim Bauer 2.0. Everything not involving Kate was the highlight of the episode, minus the scene with Sawyer at the docks. Nice acting by Josh Holloway.

So if this plays out to be a game between Jacob and the man in black, then it would seem that Claire and Sayid are the MiB's side, while those on the list, or most, would be on Jacob's. That's assuming this is one giant game between the two. With Jacob being dead, it being a "game" just doesn't seem to fit, unless it's on a grander scale that we have yet to see. But still, the mention of darkness in Sayid by the Asian guy goes along with the good/bad, black/white stuff we've seen countless times. Next week's episode looks good.

Ethan's last name was different in this episode. Gooding or something like that, whereas in the other timeline it's Rom. I also like how they've used a different sound effect when transitioning from each sideway flash since it's sideways, not backs or forwards.

Also, with the island being sunk, it's like, what's going to happen with everyone that was on the plane in the other timeline? There's no island to "go back" to, Jacob lived in the base of the statue, so does this mean he's dead and the smoke monster is roaming the earth or died as well? I'm dying to know how they're going to tie these two timelines into one.

I'm starting to believe this whole "game" concept we have is dead wrong. Locke said last week he wants to go home. Where/what is home? He could possibly be in an alternate time frame that happened because of Jacob's actions. I'm not entirely sure, but our current ideas just seems too dull.

It was Ethan Goodspeed, like his father, Horace Goodspeed. Weird episode this was. So was Rosseou sick all the time? Now is Claire sick as she was? Will Sayid also en like that? What happened to Claire to make her come up like this? Did she die somehow and the "darkness " claimed her? why were The Others not really worried about Smokey/MIB in previous season, but are they really terrified this time? After all, probably he became more powerful after Jacob died, but he could have just attacked as it seems he was free to roam through the island. Why would Ben go to be judged by Smokey willingly know he is the bad guy? Was Ben on a different group of others that didn't know about Smokey/MIB? Did Dogen answer to Ben while he was the leader? Ohh just a few questions I thought during the episode.

Wasn't it the rest of Rousseaus gang that was "infected"? They went loco, Rousseau killed then and spent the rest of her days roaming the island. Infact she was the one that was all like 'watch out for the big bad smokey' in the early seasons.

I was thinking after watching the premiere that the flash sideways timeline is the series wrap up for the characters and the events on the island will lead to the flash sideways timeline. Somehow the events on the island will be the end of this so called 'game', ending the eternal battle between Jacob and Mib and leaving the island lost forever. That's probably way off but meh...

That also bugs me and given Lost borrows from a lot of Sc Fi media, example ghosts, time travel, people with special powers etc. I have to come think both Jacob and the Man in Black are not gods but are both aliens and put on the island to test humanity... for what I don't know. But Jacob brings people to island... MIB test them and if they fail claims them. MIB doesn't think humanity is ready and wants to go home.

I'd say its the temple, hence why people there are so freaked. I imagine its abit of "if good hold the template, yay for all! If bad...oh noes!".

Does anyone know what the Asian Leader Dude says when he sees the water is brown back in Episode 1?

Knew that ending would happen, wish I didnt see that image of Claire in a promo a few weeks ago =P

It was an okay episode, didnt expect much because it was a Kate centric, but okay generally. So if Claire and Sayid are Smokey, made sense that Christian was too, to lure Claire in and now Claire can lure other people.

Been looking forward to next's episode!! :D

The French Chick's infected friends couldn't all have been Smokey, so I doubt Claire and Sayid are now Smokey. More like his slaves or something.

yeah the fact Dogan said they are "claimed" means they are probably brainwashed followers.

Hmm, would make more sense. Have to remember there are 3 smaller smokes that make one big smoke monster. Have to take that into account somewhere..

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      By excalpius · Posted

      Ignoring the fact that this "colony" kicked the empire of King George's arse during those early years... You are confusing the First Industrial Revolution (which was pulled out of some butt-hurt Brit historian's arse) with the Second Industrial Revolution (aka the Technological Revolution), which transitioned the world from the UK sailing Empire to the USA as a superpower. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_Revolution
    • OpenAI announces GPT‑5.6 Sol, its next-generation flagship model beating Claude Mythos 5

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      OpenAI announces GPT‑5.6 Sol, its next-generation flagship model beating Claude Mythos 5 by Pradeep Viswanathan Credit: OpenAI OpenAI today announced a limited preview of its new GPT-5.6 model series, which includes the Sol, Terra, and Luna models targeting different price points. GPT-5.6 Sol is the flagship model targeted at demanding reasoning and agentic workloads. GPT-5.6 Terra is positioned as a balanced model for everyday work, featuring performance competitive with GPT-5.5 while being half the cost. GPT-5.6 Luna is the fastest and most affordable model, delivering strong capability at a lower price point. Unlike previous model releases from OpenAI, GPT-5.6 is starting with a limited preview for a small group of trusted partners due to U.S. government restrictions. As expected, OpenAI previewed its plans and the models' capabilities to the U.S. government ahead of launch, and the government asked OpenAI to limit the first wave of access to select partners. OpenAI also mentioned in the official announcement blog post that it does not believe this type of government access process should become the long-term default. OpenAI highlighted that GPT-5.6 Sol comes with a robust safety stack featuring improved protections for higher-risk activity, sensitive cyber requests, and repeated misuse. The company also spent several weeks pressure-testing the system and hardening it against real-world attacks. On the capability side, as expected, GPT-5.6 Sol is OpenAI’s strongest model yet. It delivers better results in agentic performance across coding, biology, and cybersecurity. On the Terminal-Bench 2.1 benchmark, which tests command-line workflows requiring planning, iteration, and tool coordination, GPT-5.6 Sol sets a new record with a score of 91.9%, beating Anthropic's Claude Mythos 5. Additionally, GPT-5.6 introduces a new "max" reasoning effort for even deeper reasoning. The new "ultra" mode uses subagents to accelerate complex work beyond what a single agent can handle. Pricing starts at $5 per million input tokens and $30 per million output tokens for Sol. Terra costs $2.50 for input and $15 for output, while Luna costs $1 for input and $6 for output. GPT-5.6 comes with more predictable prompt caching, including support for explicit cache breakpoints and a 30-minute minimum cache life. Sol will also launch on Cerebras in July at speeds up to 750 tokens per second for select customers. OpenAI plans to make GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, and Luna broadly available in ChatGPT, Codex, and the API in the coming weeks.

      I'm not sure if you are trolling because I saw people saying this with the straight face, but there were no United States of America when industrial revolution started, just United Colonies 🤣 p.s. I'm not British, so I'm not offended.
