Just watched it. Loved it, especially the flash sideways. Ending was also pretty good!

Based on the promo pictures for next week on Dark UFO, I don't think Jack has turned to the dark side because it clearly shows him unlocking all the losties who are in the Dharma cages.

Below in my theory are big big spoilers that may be true. Warning to anyone who does not want to know any deaths/plot for the next few episodes!!!! Just don't want to ruin it for anyone

[Major Plot Spoilers!!!!!!!!]

The promo picture for next week with Flocke loading some explosives into his backpack seems to correspond with the major spoilers of the losties on Widmore's sub escaping the island - where the bomb explodes and Sun dies in a similar way to Charlie's death. My guess could be that Flocke gave the backpack to either Jack or Sawyer and told them they could take the sub and leave the island however Flocke's secret agenda is to kill them all by the explosives, drowning the sub.

Good episode :) Thought the ending was going to be better but still good, and we got a few answers.

Just one bone to pick, now we know hat Christian was MIB. But we saw Christian in Season 5 at Dharmaville, so how could MIB be Christian and John Locke at the same time? And if needs a boat to cross the water, how did he appear to Michael on the freighter in the season 4 finale?

Wired: Do you still see that as the central issue, man of faith versus man of science?

Lindelof: The paradigm has shifted from that to, were we brought here for a very specific reason, and what is that reason? Locke is now the voice of a very large subset of the audience who believes that when Lost is all said and done, we will have wasted six years of our lives, that we were making it up as we went along, and that there?s really no purpose. And Jack is now saying, ?the only thing I have left to cling to is that there?s got to be something really cool that?s going to happen, because I have really, really ****ing suffered.?

Best quote from the article. :)

I've used this reference as well before, but I'm not sure if it is going to do justice. I have an idea of how they are going to end the show and have for a while, but I'm going to keep it to myself. It's somewhat stupid and I don't want Akuma, episode and Richard to laugh. :)

On the other hand, if I'm correct, I'm going to jump with joy in knowing I knew the ending for 3 months without spoilers (besides ep names).

Edit: BTW, congrats to Rob with his GMod status. Now you can read the spoilers for us and make sure they are properly tagged for the next month! :laugh::laugh::yes:

It's kind of disconcerting that there's only 4 episodes left and the alt timeline is only beginning to come together. With each episode it seems more likely that it will be a quick and short resolution to that whole deal.

Exactly!

"The Last Recruit" shows exactly what WAS wrong with Season Six for me. Can you imagine where we could be, and the stories that could have been told, if the pacing used in "The Last Recruit" had been used for the previous three months!?

Sure, it was nice to see the often-talked-about Temple, but they wasted A LOT of time there, and all we have to show for it are a zombified Sayid and a bunch of extras in the background. I know that single-centric off-Island episodes have been the norm in previous seasons, but I think that that form could have been dropped this season - sticking to it seemed to force the need for filler situations and dialog, and it *felt* like filler. Sure, Richard's episode contained some filler, but it was executed perfectly. Plus, it's explanation of a couple of the show's mysteries didn't come off as half-assed or incomplete, like those of the numbers, the whispers, and (all of) Christian's appearances did.

So, Season Six has been total garbage until now, right? No! I just think that it could have been executed better.

On a side-note: I'm guessing (hoping) it'll be covered, but I find it curious that we haven't actually seen a Smokey-to-(F)Locke or (F)Locke-to-Smokey morph - surely they have the budget.

Edit: BTW, congrats to Rob with his GMod status. Now you can read the spoilers for us and make sure they are properly tagged for the next month! :laugh::laugh::yes:

out of courtesy to the people who love this show (my love has dwindled this season but that's another story for another thread!) I will not post spoilers in or out of tags just none full stop so everyone can enjoy the ending as it is meant to be seen. But I will post this last promo released today!

    • IBM are good at announcing stuff, but not at actually delivering it... How many decades ago did they announce quantum computers, and here we are in 2026, with CHINA delivering them, and IBM still talking...
    • It sounds like you’re trying to rewrite a narrative to align this layoff with your political beliefs. Games can be horrible, whatever backwards notions you have don’t change that bungie has problems, mostly with just bad games, and arrogance. When they pushed Microsoft to let them be independent they lost their way. They hired on a bunch of people and they couldn’t justify the employee count consistent with their revenue.
