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?

How did Locke heal up so fast?

It seemed like going with Locke was the right move on the Island, but then later over a game of bathrobe horse, Hurley says he should have gone with Jack. And what are the 6 of them covering up? Did they leave the rest to die? But if Hurley went with Locke rather than Jack and is now stateside, how's that work? Frick, man. I'll hang up and kill a polar b'ar.

Yeah, I don't think the new people on the boat are how they get rescued. Hurley chose Locke, but he was rescued.

i think jacob is using jack's dad somehow (as in jacob isn't jack's dad) and i think the person who looked out the window was the one-eye'd patch guy...he keeps coming back to life cause jacob needs him.

there...

yeah.

i must say that i was incredibly disappointed with last season's finale. it seemed [to me] like they'd all been rescued and that it was a bad thing and life sucks, the end.

well, now i just don't know anything about anything at all except that Lost has completely hooked me again.

Yes, Michael Abbadon is extremely creepy. And some people can't seem to be killed on the island. Others, if they die, seem to have the ability to reappear (at Jacob's bidding?). And there still hasn't been a good explanation of how Locke and Walt seem to have the ability to "summon" things to the island - if that is in fact what happens.

Jack seems to be pretty willing to make deals to get off the island. I wouldn't be surprised if he eventually secures safe passage off (for the 6) by cutting a deal that protects all the rest of the survivors - and somehow it's a deal that would not have been made except for the split in the survivors that we saw in this episode. HHHhhhhhh.

Welp, there it is.

What if Michael Abbadon is the guy in the coffin? He's a black guy that's neither friend nor family to Jack, which fits the description of the coffin dweller. He would have been one of their last links to the island, and maybe with his death getting back is harder or something, causing Jack despair. Probably wrong; just thought I'd throw that out there.

Christopher said...

That's a pretty good theory there Mike. Did they say that the person in the coffin was black? I must have missed that part.

I've been thinking that it was weird that the cop asked Hurley about meeting Ana Lucia on the plane instead of on the island. It seems like if they were missing for at least 90 days, he would ask him about that.....
