    And it REALLY don't make any sense to me...that if The Island is so damn picky about having everything and everyone back the way It wants it...why would it not demand Desmond back? Yeah yeah...Des has unfinished business...I get that. But The Island clearly requires CERTAIN people to be there...and he was one of them.

    Desmond came by boat so his way back to the island would be different than theirs - at least that's what I think.

    My only real question last night was why Ben was on the plane because he wasn't with them originally and might have made things "unpredictable" to quote Hawkins said.

    Since John was replacing Jack's father, can't Ben be replacing John as the impaired person on the plane?

    See...this is EXACTLY what I'm pissed about. This is so idiotically ridiculous.

    Sorry but I thought last night's show was amazing.
    I work with six people that all watch the show and we could not stop talking about how great it was.
    Very little work was done this morning.

    I think Ben said when he turned the wheel with Locke the first time he could not go back, so he was probably lying. Maybe he is not supposed to go back, but he is only doing what he wants. I think we all may be reading to much into Ben being on the plane, no one ever said he had to be on it. And I don't think it has been said he even needs to go back to the Island. I think the only people it really is supposed to be about is the Oceanic six. ben is just hitching a ride.

    Ben didn't get there by plane...so by that logic, he'd have to return by submarine.

    That would be stuff since Locke blew it up. ;)

    My other question is with the O6 aging 3 years and the people remaining on the island aging maybe a week or so at most. How is that going to work?

    I don't think Jack's dad is Jacob. Apparently, in season four when Locke went to ask what to do with the island, Jack's dad said he was speaking on Jacob's behalf.
    They pointed that out on the enhanced rerun of last weeks episode at 8PM.
    They also said that they were in a past time before the well was dug when the well closed over with Locke's nasty dangling tibia inside.

    That's why I think Pop Up Lost is so important to watch!!!

    I'm guessing you mean "tough", instead of "stuff"?? Well, the Oceanic flight crashed...but they could get back via another plane....and I'm pretty sure the world had more than one submarine. ;)

    Don't apologize for liking it!!! Nothing wrong with having an opinion. But, what did you like so much about it?


    I really WANTED to like it, of course...but the inconsistencies are driving me effing insane! :evil:

    I agree. I've emailing with my ex co-workers about the episode all day. It's the only thing I miss about my old job was our coffee break discussions about Lost the next day.

    And, AC, yep I meant tough ... sorry about the typo. ;)

    ANother question...

    Why, if it was so important that The O6 get back...didn't The Island require Walt to return?

    yeah they screwed up the Walt thing pretty badly. Maybe he has to come back the same way he left?

    We don't know why either way if it's important for Walt to get back at some point - plus we still have the rest of the season and next season to find out.

    I have a feeling we're going to find out a lot next week when we see Locke off the island and who he visits the O6. I could be wrong but didn't Walt visit Hurley in the mental institution and say that Locke visited him. So maybe we'll see what Locke said to him too.

    I think the Island decides who it wants and does not want, if that makes sence. Kind of how when Michael died, the Jacks Dad said he could leave. Walt may return though if it is not done with him, kind of how I think Desmond has to go back.
