    Well, that was the story that Ben was telling Jack when he was showing him the painting of St. Thomas and Jesus. I figured that at least the figure of speech "doubting Thomas" was familiar. I'm probably making too much of that part though.

    But it was still pretty goofy to see Ben in the pew like he was praying. PUH-LEEZ! About as convincing as him giving a scripture lesson to Jack. I was wondering if God might hurl a few lightning bolts before they got out of the church.

    Was just watching last week's enhanced version and I remembered the whole newspaper clipping announcing Locke's death and was wondering how Jack couldn't have figured out that Locke committed suicide:

    http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a255/ ... 1235611199

    There's better screen caps then this, but I remember a couple of seasons ago we were all trying to figure out what it said on the old board and we concluded it was a guy, whose name started with a "J", and that the body was found hanging from a beam.

    So how come Jack acts surprised to hear from Hawking that Locke killed himself?

    Well, I guess Locke didn't commit suicide ... lol.

    Did not see Ben murdering him. Got totally blindsided like that.

    I liked how shocked Ben was when he learned Jin was still alive. I am curious to see if he killed Locke hoping he would not be alive when he got back to the Island. Or if Locke could not commit suicide to die.

    I can't wait to see Ben's face when he sees Locke alive again.

    So where in time are the new survivors?

    And did 06 jump back in time with that flash? And if so how will everyone get back to the same time?

    And why did a flash happen if Locke fixed the wheel?

    And I am curious about the new people on the Island, it seems they know more that anyone realizes. Were they planted by Widmore? What was the war he was talking about?

    I think they were at the station above the wheel.

    As soon as Ben came up to the room and interrupted him, I knew that Ben would end up killing him. I don't know what Ben is up to but I never believe there's anything good in his intentions.

    Once again, I couldn't agree more! I am convinced that Ben is pure evil...and I *ALWAYS* assume he has ill intentions. I know there are those who believe in the end that Ben will turn out to be the good guy all along...I just don't see it happening. Every story has an antagonist...and he's it.

    My guess is that when the wheel was broken it was causing the jumps to happen at random times, but when Locke fixed it it put it back onto it's schedule for moving the island. They're probably going to have to find a way to stop the wheel from moving. That could be why the room was froozen when Ben first went to it.

    Oh snap, I think they might have given us a clue as to when Widmore was kicked off the island. He said that it was Ben that tricked him into leaving, so that would mean that he left sometime after they killed off the Dharma people. So it had to have been within the last 16 years, which would mean Penny was born on the island. Unless Ben traveled back in time and tricked a younger Widmore into pushing the wheel.

    I just watched it and I'm confused.... even more so because of all this time travel. I think I'm going to need to watch this episode a few more times, unless there are more posts on there that will help me figure this one out.
    I guess it's the new plane crash and new people and knowing nothing about then/it that have me confused.

    OK, I know the show uses time travel as a central plot point, but there is one unmistakebale error from last night:

    When Jack and Locke have their encounter in the hospital, Jack's beard is like this one:

    George-Michael.jpg

    And then when we see him on the bridge holding Locke's obvious suicide obit, presumably a few days later, his beard is more akin to this one:

    375919234_7d6d21015d.jpg

    What did they not find Locke for 6 years or something? He's in a hotel, the maid would have found him the next day.
