It wasn’t the greatest episode, but it was far from terrible. I enjoyed the last 15 minutes as well (even though it seemed rushed).

I had wondered too what happened to Ben after crazy Sayid scared him off. Maybe it has something to do with the promos for next week that said he’ll meet his demise?!

Good call on Sayid-Shannon. I could see there being a misunderstanding between Sayid and Smokey, with Smokey bringing Shannon back and Sayid going loco on his ass!

Was the baseball (that Dogen had from his son) in the baseball glove when Richard Alpert went to visit Young Locke? Richard Alpert presented 6 items to Young Locke, and a baseball glove was one of them. Was there a ball inside? I can’t remember.

The banter between Kate and Miles in the temple about how Sawyer sent her packing was hilarious.

Did anyone else find it amusing that when Omar woke up Sayid in the middle of the night, Sayid sprang from that couch and goes “it’s 2:30″ (which, by the way, includes the number 23). Does Sayid have special time telling powers, because I don’t wake up knowing the exact time…

The SUV in the driveway when Sayid gets taken is the same as Jack’s license plate. Different cars but same plate.

I am interested to find out how Jin is involved with Keamy’s gangsta business. And how Jin went from LAX to a freezer in a restaurant. Hey, I keep my jin in the freezer too (HAHA get it? GIN! Lost joke!)

What happened to Ben Linus?! Ben went to get Sayid, and Sayid looked at Ben with crazy eyes, then Ben ran back towards team Jacob. However, team Jacob had already gone into the Temple walls, Legends of the Hidden Temple style, and I didn’t see Ben entering with the rest of the crew.
So the question remains, donde esta Senior Linus?!

Why can’t Smokey Locke die? Sayid stabbed him in the chest and he didn’t even bleeeeeed. All Sayid managed to do was cut a hole in his shirt! Jacob died, why can’t Smokey die?
Similarly, why did Dogen keep Smokey out of the Temple? How was Dogen special?

Sayid tells MIB Smokey Locke that the only thing he’s ever wanted died in his arms. Everyone assumes he’s talking about Nadia, but Shannon ALSO died in his arms.

Hey, Keamy makes GREAT eggs. Just to let you know. He’s a FAB chef, but only with breakfast foods…ladies.

I’d be really happy if the promos stopped saying “THE FINAL SEASON OF LOSTTTTTTT” every SINGLE week. OK, we get it, we know it’s the final season!

Can I just say HOW happy I was that Lost didn’t cut out at all last night?…THANK YOU, CABLEVISION!!!! I was getting pretty, pretty, prettttty worried yesterday, hearing about the feud.

- I’m a bit conflicted on the episode. I was bored during most of AlternaSayid (minus the Keamy part), but the last 15 minutes were fantastic. I’m starting to think though that it was full of the promised answers. We now know Dogen’s reason for coming to the Island, we know Smokey’s power of persuasion, and yes, we did get the table set for the last 12 hours. I’ll say it again, anyone who honestly thought every question would be answered in the first handful of episodes was crazy. If you’ve made it this far with the show, you can get through the next 11 weeks, I promise.
- Damon Lindleof via Twitter on the promise of answers last night: “One man’s answers are another man’s questions.”
- Dogen vs. Sayid: Best Lost Fight EVER.
- Kate saw Ethan in hospital with Claire.
- Thematic thing I noticed: as Kate left the Temple, she was the only one in a lighter color. Smokey, Claire, and Sayid either wore black or dark blue, and even the former Temple folk wore dark reds. Kate wore gray. Coincidence or the light-dark, good-evil dynamic coming into play?
