    I read something today that said tonight is the "penultimate episode" of the season, which would mean the second to last episode (I looked up "penultimate").

    I thought the season finale was on May 29. Weren't they adding an extra episode? I thought we had five episodes after the break. I guess after tonight that will be 3 with a 2 hour finale would be 5. I hope it isn't ending next week.

    this episode is supposed to be better than Ji Yeon? wow....

    anyways, I don't think this week is the last for the season, that would blow.

    darn...i thought penultimate meant really really cool or something like that. penultimate is a good word, i'm going to start using it.

    it doesn't seem like there should only be two weeks of lost left...i thought we were getting an extra, too.

    I found out what is going on. There is this week's show. Then next week is what is billed as the first hour of a 3 hour season finale. Then there is a week break (May 22-no show), then May 29 is the 2 hour season finale.

    That sounds better than tonight and just one more show.

    and the finale is a real two hour finale, right? not an hour-long recap as they like to do?

    nope two full hours.... that's the reason for the additional episode as well as the week off (so that GA can have its 2 hour finale)

    God I hate GA. Because of it, I won't be able to watch the Lost Finale until Tuesday Night after it airs. :(

    At least though, I have a good excuse. I'll be in Hawaii for a wedding. I already signed up for the tour again where I go on the fish pond boat ride at the Kualoa Ranch so I can walk onto the dock that is the gateway to the island.

    I'm doing much more of a Lost virtual tour this time around, because unlike my first Hawaiian vacation, I actually know where things are now. ;)

    Yeah, I would've interpreted it to be "rockin', badass, very cool"

    First off...I knew the meaning of penultimate. (I learned it many years ago when reading a book about The Who, and it mentioned a show being Keith Moon's "penultimate" show, so it also has ties to "rockin'" and "badass")


    As for last night...so people's speculation that the person in the shadows in the cabin last time Locke went there to sell Girl Scout cookies was Christian Sheperd was correct.

    And with Locke's flashback, is it possible that Matthew Abaddon is Jacob?

    Pretty good episode.

    thanks for clearing up penultimate. ;)

    i guess it is confirmed that richard never ages.

    interesting that they introduced this idea of the island being fickle and locke not yet 'being ready' to go there.

    matthew abaddon was pretty bad@ss last night....i also wondered if he was jacob.

    it was kind of creepy the way claire was sitting there all smiley... completely unaffected about the fact she gave up her baby. almost cult-like.

    I think Claire is dead, died in the explosion.

    Very plausible. I think she died that last night from the effects of the explosion.

    And not only can't Michael kill himself, but apparently he can't be killed by anyone else either since Keamy's gun wouldn't fire on Michael.

    I don't think that Michael can't die, but he just can't die before he does what the island needs him to do... once that happens, he dies. I think the same is true with Locke and the way Ben mentioned that he shouldn't have shot him since he knew it Locke wouldn't die.

    Great episode again and next week looks even better.

    Yep, I'm thinking that too. It also explains why Miles was so interested in her last week.

    So how exactly is Locke going to move the island?

    And I'm guessing he's successful because that's why Jack couldn't find it in the finale last season.

    So are they planning out a dynamic that Jack and Locke become the new Ben and Widmore. Jack searching for the island while Locke is the protector of it?
