LOST - Season 5

SydneyK · #1 03-05-2009, 11:25 AM

Last night's was one of LOST's best episodes ever, IMO. I loved it.

So, Horace is the guy who Locke saw in the jungle not too long ago, right? He kept chopping down the same tree over and over again... and he had a nosebleed then, if I'm not mistaken. I'm wondering how he gets caught up in the time craziness.

Richard is the key to the show. I have no clue who/when/what he is, but whomever/whenever/whatever he is is the answer to the whole mystery.

Now, if I can just decide who the real bad guys are - Widmore and Folk, or Ben and Company. Or, maybe they're both bad.

I remembered that Locke and Horace talked in the jungle, but I can't remember what was said between them. Anyone know?

I'm also curious to see what's going to happen with John and the people of the new plane crash. He's reminding me of Ethan, with the way no one knows who he is.. and he's not on the passenger log. And why did he end up on the beach? Why were Kate, Jack and Hurley all together? Where did Sayid go (although it looks like we'll find out what happened with him next week)? And where is Ben?!

All I remember is that Horace said to Locke that he had been dead for 12 years.

Ben is was one of the injured passengers..he is in one of the hatches.

Right, We saw Horace in the pile of dead Dharma people, the same one that Locke fell into when Ben shot him....

A few things I am wondering....

Are Sawyer and gang going to end up dead with the rest of the people....how are they not messing up history/time?

Wouldn't they have seen young Ben on the island?

Who does the baby become?

Oh and Sawyer's look at the end was great.....so in the end 3 years isn't long enough to get over someone!

Locke's mango (the best he's ever had!) reminded me of his orange smile

Also, Jack, Hurley, and Kate were not all together. Jack landed in the woods/jungle and then ran to the pool where he found Hurley and Kate, so I'm guessing the passengers just crashed randomly around the island (we don't even know where Sayid, Sun, or Ben crashed).

I also thought it was weird how Charlotte just disappeared and basically went back to who she was in the 70s/whenever they are stuck in time, but the other characters were not transported back to who/where they were at that time in their original/linear lives. That makes me think that they really can't change events that have happened in the "original" past/the times they travel to. I wish this show had some consistency/rules!

Also, even after reading all previous comments about "Horace," he still doesn't ring a bell?

She probably appeared that way because she died. She was no longer moving through time with those characters who are still alive, so when they went back to the 70s, she was as she was in the 70s.

Ah, that makes sense...

I thought the baby that was delivered might have been Ben, but then his dad wasn't Horace, if I remember correctly.

No, Horace found Ben's dad in a forest in the US after Ben's mom died in the forest (They had been on a camping trip if I recall).

During that same episode we saw Ben as a young boy being sent to Dharma with his dad because they knew Horace.

Oh and we know where Ben crashed....he must have crashed with the new people because he was in their group of injured because Locke id'ed him as "The man who killed me"

Oh.. must have missed that.

I'm just glad that people are starting to get back together again so that things are less confusing

Yes, that's pretty much it. Ben's Dad is not Horace, Ben's Dad was Roger Linus, the guy who looked like "Douglas C. Niedermayer" from ANIMAL HOUSE (also the guy who played the mean dad in Twister's Sister's "We're not gonna take it" video).

Oh, and here is the synopsis of how the Linus' met Horace:
"Off the Island"
On December 19th, during an unknown year in the 1960s, Roger and his wife, Emily, went on a hike in a forest near Portland. At the time, Emily was seven-months pregnant with, presumably, their first and only child. For an unknown reason, she went into labor early into the hike. Roger delivered the baby, picked-up Emily and the baby, and ran for help. They reached the side of a busy road and Roger managed to stop a couple (Horace Goodspeed and his wife) for help. Sadly, it was too late for Emily and she died in his arms. With her dying words, she asked Roger to name the baby "Benjamin". ("The Man Behind the Curtain")

I think this episode is one of my favorites if only because they acknowledged Richard's eyeliner.

I could not stop laughing at this comment, I think I actually paused the Tivo!

I love Richard....I think he is one of my favorite characters because I can't completely figure him out!
