Jack Sick Lost Season 4

Tonight I am sure everyone will be on the edge of their seat as we wait to see if Dr. Shepherd can be saved from the perils of… Appendicitis? – with all the dangers of the Island, who would have thought a bum appendix could take out our beloved hero?!? Also, we should see if Locke’s crew has any luck finding Jacob’s cabin…

ABC’s Official Show Description

Spoiler Alert

“Kate and Juliet must learn to work together when Jack’s health is seriously compromised. Something goes wrong as Sawyer, Claire, Aaron and Miles continue their trek away from Locke’s camp and back to the beach.”

Tonight’s episode is a flash forward focused primarily on Jack, but will include Kate as well – not sure if this can live up to the adventures of Ben that we saw last week, but I am sure it will be good. Based on the episode preview, we can see that (somehow) Keamy survived the attack from smoky last week – and it’s probably safe to say he is that “something that goes wrong” for the rest of the gang as they head back to the beach.

    lostfreak - no harm intended on the episode preview; it is just one of those ep’s where the preview from last week gave away major plot points - we try to not go beyond that, but we’ll defintely be mindful moving forward

    So the psychic may not have been a fraud after all. He was persuaded to shut up about his daughter coming back to life. BTW, there were whispers in the background of the audio tape of her autopsy. :)

    But its not meant to be Jack. Thinking Sawyer.

  30. jack and Kate really are not the best candidates to be parents.

  31. are you guys watching right now?

  32. did Jack have a scar on his chest/stomach when he got out of bed earlier in the show?

    Not sure what you mean, but yes there were whispers during the autopsy…maybe you mean the psychic is still a fraud?

  42. ok that show made no sense, a waste of an episode, we didnt learn anything new other than jack has some serious problems, and what happened to claire? and what was kate doing for sawyer?

    i think kate was (possibly) taking care of aaron off island for him bcuz whatever happens to claire since he’s been so protective over her lately (and what’s up with her leaving aaron?).
    besides you didn’t know who red was before this either! and it’s about time somebody threatens red! go jin.

  52. I think Hurley was telling the truth. This seems to be some kind of a dream sequence.

    I’m with you omar. That ep sucked! I mean… Nice to see Bernard getting more screen time, right? Maybe next week we will get a Steve centric ep. The big build up to Christian and — no answers whatsoever. Total let down!

    I guess we were watching different episodes because while this was not a “sit on the edge of your seat” episode, I found it both entertaining and compelling.

    We learned that flash forwards do not occur in reverse chronological order.

    We learned that Kate and Jack got their happy “not quite an” ending.

    We learned how Sun and Jin will be separated.

    We learned something about Claire and Aaron’s separation.

    We learned that Miles hears whispers - perhaps they are always there, but average people only hear them on the island.

    We learned that Karl and Danielle are, indeed, dead.

    We learned that most of the freighter guys survived Smokey (I counted five, and I think Miles thought there were six).

    We learned that smoke alarm beeps sound mysteriously like the computer’s countdown beeps as it approached 108 minutes.

    We learned that Christian can appear in SOME form OFF the island.

    We learned that Charlie has appeared in SOME FORM repeatedly to Hurley.

    We saw the beginning of Jack’s downward spiral.

    We can look the S3 finale flashforward with new eyes - Kate said in THIS episode “for him” with the same tone and timbre that she said “he’s waiting” meaning that perhaps she WAS referencing Sawyer.

    So yeah… I learned a lot. Then again, Omar, I think you have had similar reactions to a number of episodes. Were I a catty person, I might say more.

    Well that may be, but Christian also showed himself to Claire. It might be Smokey, but my guess is that we will soon learn abaout the whispers. In the transcripts, they wanted to show themselves to the Losties, I think they are slowly doing just that.

  57. Some things seem to be falling in place from this episode:

    We know at the airport when Kate says “I got to back to him”, she meant Aaron and not Sawyer.

    Why Jack is in serious disarray from the break-up.

    Miles can really hear ghosts

    Sorry, L-o-M, but we don’t discuss previews here! I think that late on Thursday afternoon, once the new blog page is posted, it is less frowned upon, but otherwise *sshhhh* please!

    Many of us work hard to AVOID spoilers, including those “coming up on the next episode” previews. (Tonight’s was hard, though, because there was NO break between. I couldn’t hit the OFF button fast enough!)

    : ) P

    No talking about previews. Save it…I am….

  69. Hurley told Jack that someone was going to visit him… soon… Christian Shepherd.

    Jack catches a glimpse of dad in the hallway. Late at night he sees Dad in the waiting area, after the SMOKE alarm goes off… (HELLO - Smokey?)

    Claire sees Christian and is lured away from Sawyers’ beddown area. We’ve never seen that she knows who daddy is before - he stopped visiting when she was tiny. Jack still doesn’t that Claire is a sister… as far as we know. If he and Kate marry, then he’d be raising his nephew as his son.

    Who did Kate see that upset Jack? She admitted it was for Sawyer. The phone call where she said ‘we could meet for an hour’, that Jack overheard… I think she said it was Noreen (???) part of a moms’ group. What if it were Cassidy, mom of Sawyers’ daughter, Clementine?

    Juliet was sweet. Throwing Kate the ‘I kissed Jack’ bone. Guess Bernard learned about first-aid in the Army as well learning to shoot. Insight from Rose about how people get better on the island, not sicker.

    Lots of good anti-Charlotte sentiment this episode. Rose and Jin both. Wonder why Daniel went into fertility station first? Just cuz he likes Charlotte? or to snoop? Still not sure I trust Daniel. Don’t trust Charlotte one iota though!

    Miles deserved a smackdown too. Letting Claire wander off. But he did keep his mouth zipped when Lapidus and Keamy went marching thru. Odd to see so many mercenaries still alive after the Smokie beating.

    I think Jack says that is - because he helped Claire deliver the baby, not Kate! We still have not seen where Claire & Jack learn they have the same father, if they do at all.

    Bernard is a D.D.S., right? He has some knowledge regarding surgeries.

    I guess the conversation is coming where Christian tells Jack Aaron is his nephew and that leads to Jack backing away more?

  73. I don’t know what show everyone is watching but….

    Claire DOES know who her father is and what he looks like and Kate WAS the one that helped deliver the baby, not Jack.

  74. SERIOUSLY THIS EP. LEFT ME MORE CONFUSED…BUT STILL ON THE EGDE OF MY SEAT……I DON’T GET IT AND ALOT OF THINGS WERE POINTED OUT BUT THEN IT BROUGHT UP ALOT OF QUESTIONS………HMMMMM NEXT WEEK I SUPPOSE WILL KEEP ME ENTERTAINED, BUT I NEED MY LOST FIX NOW…….I DVR IT SOOO I’M GOING TO WATCH AGAIN……….LOVE YA GUYS

    Yeah… Jack tossed some unstable dynamite down the ‘vent’ that Smokey was dragging Locke in to.
    The mercs were shooting at Smokey, screaming a bit, crying, wetting themselves… you know - standard mercenary tactics. [;^)

    I took it as a teaser. We thought he was going to say “…I am…” but he just stated the obvious…Kate is NOT related to Aaron.

  77. The only thing I can think of that Kate can be doing for Sawyer involves his daughter. I am still wondering what it can be. Apparantly they left everyone behind and claimed that they were dead. The rest of the survivors must still be in the island. I hope jin is there and that was a just a gravestone we say Hurley and Sun visit.

    ===
    I respectfully disagree. I think the way he says it implies that he knows that he is Aaron’s nephew. You are right in that we have not seen an episode where that is revealed. However, (it’s my theory) in that scene he already knows. Jack says, “YOU are not even related to him”….implying “like me…I’m his uncle.”

    I thought Claire met Christian and learned he is her father after the car accident that Claire was in with her mother. Christian was at the mother’s hospital bed and told Claire he was her father, also she learned that he was covering all her mother’s medical expenses. I remember him too trying to talk to her in a shopping mall and she didn’t want anything to do with him.
