What is the monster?

Well at least Locke was asking questions we really wanted the answer to.

We watched LOST last night with Mr and Mrs. Grant, and I couldn't help but think that this episode was going to make a whole lot of sense later. Not so much last night though. We were introduced to four new characters: Dan, Miles, Charlotte, and Frank.

It should be interesting to see how fans respond to these characters. LOST has been pretty hit or miss when it comes to new faces. Ben and Juliet were obvious hits. The tail section and Niki/Paulo didn't go to well.

There is a theory out there that the new girl has been to the island before. I like it because it involves one of my favorite books. In Prince Caspian, the first chapter is called The Island. The Pevensie kids land on a strange island with old artifacts and creatures. The first thing they do when they get there is play in the water. Well, people seem to be drawing parallels to the kids playing and Charlotte playing and splashing in the water when she fell. I know it might seem like a stretch, but we come to find out that her full name is Charlotte Staples Lewis. Which is ridiculously close to Clive Staples Lewis. Cue dramatic music......


Who is Ben's man on the boat?
Where is WAAAAAAALLLLTTTT?!!?!!
How did they find the wreckage of the plane?

I'll hang up an listen........

Are they still alive??????

That's the question that sticks out in my mind from last night.

So, I was listening to OK Computer the other day, and I decided that Ben looks a little like Thom Yorke..........maybe???????






Well, where to we start? I think my favorite part of the episode, was when Michael Abbadon (the Oceanic lawyer) was questioning Hurley. "Are they still alive?" I just about blew up when he asked that. Also, the guy who plays him (Lance Reddick) might me the freakiest looking guy I've ever seen. Apparently, his name is Michael Abbadon. Abaddon is the hebrew word for destruction. In Revelation 9:11 it is personified as Abaddon, "Angel of the Abyss", rendered in Greek as Apollyon; and he is described as king of the locusts which rose at the sounding of the fifth trumpet. So apparently he is a bad guy.






Also, we got a glimpse of Christian Shephard sitting in Jacob's chair. Is he Jacob? I'm not entirely convinced. It is interesting that in the last "missing pieces" clip, we get a glimpse of Christian telling Vincent to wake up his son because he "has work to do."

I'm sorry about the scattered subjects, but my mind is a little shot after watching last night's episode.

Who are the other three people who get off the island?
What is Upham doing on the island?
Why does Hurley regret going with Locke?
