I watch Lost and this season as one of the Delta Park Project’s research interns I figured it would be helpful to liveblog my thoughts. First of all, the episode description from Lostpedia: Desmond looks for a woman who might be the key to helping Faraday stop the island’s unpredictable movements through time; Locke finds out who has been attacking the survivors.
So here goes! I scribbled these as I watched them so I claim no coherency. It wouldn’t even make sense to anyone who doesn’t watch the show already and yeah, if you haven’t seen tonight’s episode, Thar Be Spoilers Ahead. Yarr.
Previously on Lost:
(BTW: Can’t they get that guy to be Mister Narrator Man on the podcast and such? I like this voice WAY better than that one.)
* Benry and the Wheel, island vanishes.
* Juliet and Daniel talk, Daniel tells Desmond to go find his mum.
* Des wakes up off the island for 3 years, says it was a memory.
—
* Goats? Kids? Markets? WTF?
* Desmond? What are you shouting? A name?
* Penny? OMG!!!
* Oh this is so many questions right here. Who? How?
* He has a ring on are they finally married in this when?
* What an adorable kid in the now.
* How is Desmond the only one who can help? He’s not one of the 6. Is this something to do with Daniel’s mum?
* What island are they headed to now?
* Who’s THAT guy? And that one?
* What’s wrong with Charlotte? I’m very curious to know. Is it because she’s born on the island?
* Are Daniel’s feelings in the way of helping Charlotte?
* Did Miles see that eause he heard the dead people and they weren’t dead yet?
* Um. Oh crap. Why do they have arrows but not guns?
* Oh there’s one. Who’s she? Why does she know him?
* I wonder if he remembered it when it happened in DANIEL’S timeline because he couldn’t remember it until it happened to both of them.
* Why do I have a really bad feeling about him leaving that room?
I notice though he didn’t promise her any such thing.
* I guess it doesn’t really matter who those two were, huh?
* Wait, what? Whose landmines were they?
* There were 20 at the beach?
* She’s out of control of what happens? Because of Jacob maybe?
* Are we going to learn more about the Russian soldier guy?
* They are Others!? How’s THAT work?
* What Miles? WHAT?
* Is it me or is Miles going gray REALLY quickly?
* Is this the Kloo camp? Wait maybe not. Richard?
* Bomb? What bomb?
* Y HALO THAR OXFORD!
* No Faraday? I’m shocked. Really.
* Why didn’t he ask who’s in the offices over the Physics labs now? Wouldn’t that be useful?
* Fumigation? Shenanigans. Clerical error indeed. I’d bet my failsafe key that error is no error at all.
* Who’s the girl in the photo?
* !!! Who’s this guy? What’s he up to? Is he with Abaddon or Dharma? And who’s on The Island he’s related to? (:
* What he did to that poor girl? Did he send her back and it went all wrong?
* Charlotte should really start being nicer to Daniel and maybe he’d level with her about what’s going on with her headache and nosebleeds.
* Who came and blew it up? Dharma? Is that the faction the soldier came with?
* That’s a tactic I haven’t seen. Love? Interesting. I like how he put together the H-Bomb info though.
* Others 101. Heh.
* Um. WTF? One of my people? How’s THAT work?
* How’d he get there? Who’s she?
* Good Lord I’m confused.
* So this must be That Poor Girl. I wonder how this happened. I though maybe she was going to beat him up or something.
* So Daniel is the key to how Charles got involved. Hmmm.
* I have to admit I’m impressed with how quickly Daniel put together his H-Bomb info and was right about it!
* Why didn’t she say she loved him back? Doesn’t she? What reason does he have to return now?
* And really, what sort of girl doesn’t already know?
* 18 members? not 15 or 16 or 23? You’re slipping guys! (:
* Every time they show Richard I get all distracted by his guyliner.
* I wonder if Richard really does know NOW how to save the Island or if it’s later on for him.
* I wonder how long Jughead’s been there.
* Can’t he just open the helpfully labeled Trigger Control Panel and defuse it?
* Oh goody, she’s freaking out and she has a gun. Why is she demanding all this information? What does she care?
* Now that she’s gotten this out of him she’s taking it remarkably well…
* Greetings ChuckyWucky! How’s tricks?
* Well that is an interesting reaction to that question.
* Is she safe? This makes him verge on human. That’s no good. And I’m not convinced that’s a legit address either. Other people flying to LA is what started all this…
* He really does love Penny. I guess that’s a good thing.
* Um. That’s a nice reaction. Unarmed man limps into camp and you point a gun at him.
* When in Richard’s timeline did Richard meet Locke?
* WIDMORE????? Oh uh UH!
* Oh thank Jebus he made it back. I’m very glad because I really did wonder. I thought maybe Mrs Hawking would appear.
* What? No she didn’t die. Oh good she knows he’s lying.
* His name is Charlie? That’s very very sweet.
* I think it’s a bad idea to take them with you LA because Charles knows that’s likely your next destination.
* This sounds like a very confusing conversation for Richard.
* I suggest you come and visit me? Hmmmmm.
* And now we’ll never know. Where are they? No wait. WHEN are they?
* I thought sure for some reason this would be the place surrounded by the fence that keeps the smoke monster out.
* Is this a jump forward or a jump back?
* Uh oh. Is this it for her?

Next week’s superfast cuts (after Sun says “Are you sure you want to do this?” “We can go home”)
- Kate kissing Jack (I think)
- Charlotte (but not blinking or anything)
- Ben looking to his left (from a car?)
- Claire? (She looks like she’s yelling or something)
- Kate looking up at someone (I think it’s Claire. I bet it’s when she gets-takes?-Aaron.)
- Someone I don’t know with long dark hair
- Someone’s arms picking up something I can’t tell what though
- I think it’s Sayid, and it’s some sort of weapon maybe? Or something about to be a weapon (:
- Oh, it’s a gun apparently. Those last two cuts were really fast! I was frame advancing on TiVo and they were super super short there too.

This was fun to watch for a few reasons, but mostly I think it’s the Widmore bits I’m most interested in this week.
