    Was unable to watch the episode on Wednesday, so I watched it last night. Great episode, one of my favorites this season.

    I would to agree with people in saying the swirling smoke monster around Ben was kind of lame and cheesy. I would have preferred for the smoke monster to initially manifest itself as Alex and judge him in that form, maybe rough him up a bit in the process.

    Glad Penny wasn't killed, but hope Desmond becomes an active character in the storyline again soon.

    I am really looking forward to this weeks Ack Attack recap. I have a feeling it will be more hysterical than usual. There were just too many great things in this episode for it not to be.
    OMG you think just like I do. Seems like every episode now I'm watching and thinking about what is Ack going to do with this one. :P ;):lol:

    I do the same thing! When I got to "opposite day" in the last recap, I almost spit out my coffee it was so funny. That has got to be the most entertaining TV show blog out there.

    I have a feeling Desmond, Penny, Charlie and Charles Widmore are going to be parts of the story again. Maybe not until next season, but Hawking said the Island was not done with him yet.

    Maybe this has been asked before.Why has'nt Richard aged?Everyone else has.We know that he is of some importance.Its gotta tie in with Locke somehow.

    i have two thoughts on the immortal Richard Alpert. either:

    1) he, like Christian Shepherd & John Locke, has died and been resurrected by the island

    or

    2) his initials, RA = Ra = The Egyptian God of the Sun & therefore he never ages

    BTW didn't Ben look great with that extremely realistic looking full head of hair? :roll: :P Especially when he was pushing Alex in the swing. I was wondering if he'd borrowed Jack's old beard for a wig. :shock: :lol:

    I always thought the Others just moved into the barracks after they got rid of the Dharma people but judging by Locke's conversation with Ben it didn't exactly happen that way. So now I think Ben convinced them to move into Dharmaville after he adopted Alex so he could give her a nice cozy home rather than camping out in the jungle.

    Another thing--what was the deal with him unclogging the drain? That was NOT how he summoned the smoke monster the last time. So what was he up to? By now I never believe anything Ben says although he did seem serious when Smokey appeared as the apparition of his dead daughter.

    You mean the baby's (Alex) real father? We saw him a few episodes back when the French crew landed on the island and picked up Jin. They had a run in with Smokey and everybody went into the temple except Rousseau because she was pregnant. Then Jin saw her arguing with her husband on the beach who pulled a gun on her so she shot him because he was "infected." Jin also found the bodies of the other guys in her group that she had shot because they were infected.

    Now why Widmore wanted them killed, I don't know. Either he's really mean or he wants to protect the island from crazy gun-toting French women.

    Kind of like when The Mosquitos landed on Gilligan's island. Then you added Bingo, Bango, Bongo and Irving to the castaways for an episode.

    I don't like season 5 nearly as much as season 4 so far. For me, the second half of season 3 and all of season 4 are the best.

    Anybody else think that the war Widmore was talking about is between Dharma and The Others?

    That is what I thought too. I think it is Dharma going back to the Island to take it over.

    So who are the "Shadow of the statue" people, cause they are apparently not aligned with Benry or Chuckles Widmore.
    Hurley in the van with Miles and Chang was funny.

    Sounds like he planned on having Luke and Vader "hug it out, b*tch" and talk through Luke's anger with his father, instead of getting into a lightsaber duel so that we wouldn't get stuck with The Return of the Jedi and the Ewoks, based on his comments...
