Something Nice Back Home
1 year, 2 months ago by WillRead more: No Tags
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

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.

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

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.

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.

_____________________________
I think in this ep Jack thinks of Aaron like a son, and finding out he is his uncle will make him feel weird (I’m thinking Springer-like) and stand-offish.
I like the theory that Kate is doing something related to Clementine. I think that will also make Jack want to distance himself.

Well if Kate can’t leave the state, what would be the odds of her living wherever Clementine is? I still don’t get what she could be doing for her besides giving money.

One thing that made me laugh, in my own warped, can’t remember a damn thing, mind. Jack sitting outside of the mental hospital in his 4-wheel drive. It was after dark, hours after his Hurley visit, he was right in front of the benches that Hurley communed with Charlie. I was wondering if his was contemplating sitting on those benches… in order to get the ‘visitor’ that Hurley said would be there soon. (?)

I am thinking more and more that the clandestine Kate meeting was about Sawyers’ kid Clementine. Kate and Cassady did have a pre-island connection..
We last see James holding an abandoned child in the middle of nowhere. Now he is daddy James… always had parent issues… lost his folks early on… no child left behind James.
Maybe his ultimate ‘redemption’ is resolving that no child should grow up without a parent/parents, so they don’t wind-up like him.
If Christian does represent the island, maybe Aaron was supposed to stay on the island, as the new Jacob. And what was said or done to Claire that she would EVER leave Aaron in the tree trunks… Those trunks look like the ones that people hide from, or are protective of, Smokey.

Sometimes the show has to slow down and just give us some info to tie up loose ends in order to move forward. It’s another chapter we need. It wasn’t an awesome break neck speed episode, but riveting and needed.

NOW, we have more focus and can concentrate and extrapolate on all of the new revelations they are getting to cram down our throats in the last 4 hours of the season - 4 hours that will have to get us thru to Jan 09.

first off…kate’s body! WOW! and producers were showing it off in this ep. and did i hear a lisp from her?
second…am i in the minority when i say that i wanted kate to end up with sawyer. i think the writers are making a huge mistake if kate ends up with jack.
and jack does not know that aaron is his nephew…AND doesn’t it seem like the first FF happened after this season’s FF??? looks like he’s still got his practice and he’s doing well…and i think meeting with CS will send him into the condition we saw him in in the first FF.
another strange but weird theory…anyone notice when miles says to sawyer “what are you her brother…?” talking about sawyer and claire…THAT i thought was strange…and i started thinking fight clubish (did i lose ya’ll???)….very very strange by the writers…cuz we were all like “no, you doofus he’s not her brother he’s taking her to her brother…”…
and my theory about claire is that she’s gone…as in boone gone and that hot blonde gone…
elephant in the room for this season has been “why are the scientists there…what is red doing there? she has served no purpose so far…the only person with a big question mark…”
i didn’t like this episode much but we needed an episode or two like this one to bring up more questions…rember we still got 2 years to go…so we can’t have answers every ep.

First time posting long time reader.
I thought it very strange that Miles was able to hear Karl & Danielle and find their bodies but when Sawyer asked Miles in the morning about Clair he did not seem to say he SAW anyone. I realize that Christian said nothing and it seems Miles can only hear the dead. But does this mean that people who die on the Island because of the time difference are not dead until they catch up to the off island time? Christian died a few days before the crash and if the time is different then he maybe has not died and therefore Miles cannot commutate with them? Im confused cause Karl & Danielle both died on the island and so did Naomi and he was able to hear them. But why not Christian? I think there is something going on here.

I disagree with the majority of bloggers about the group of Lapidus, Miles, Daniel, and Charlotte. They did not come to the island to help the Losties, but they have no intention of harming them either. I trust all of them with making the right decisions when facing life or death situations. In this episode, both Lapidus and Miles did that. And in the past episodes Daniel has done that as well. Charlotte seems a bit on the grumpy side, but underneath she has a big heart that I feel will be revealed in her flashback episode.
I believe by the comments Jack made about Kate not even being related to Aaron he revealed he knows he is Aaron’s uncle.
My thoughts on Jin making sure Charlotte take back Sun on the chopper: First, he wants to take care of Sun and the baby. Second, he feels he needs to be on the island to protect those still left behind. I think he realizes not everyone can get off the island at the same time and he has good survival skills.

Oh, yeah, it was when Charlotte was like, they think we’re killers, so might as well play the part. I was so happy Daniel shot her down because that was such a lame thing to say. Stop keeping secrets and people might actually start to trust you. And then Miles was like, I didn’t sign up for this. How come Sawyer didn’t demand to know what exactly he did sign up for?? Ugh!

The black (smokey) man in the painting could just be another finger pointed at Christian and the smoke monster. We saw another reference when the smoke alarm battery was dying and Christian appeared. Or maybe it is just really bad art and cheap batteries.

Ok, so maybe I was looking too hard. But did I notice that when Jack went to visit Hurley, that the door was locked from the OUTSIDE? The doctor had to let Jack INTO the room with a card/code. But Jack just opened the door to leave. If a psych ward, they would lock Hurley IN the room. Sometimes they are locked from the hallway also, but they wouldn’t want the “patients” to just wander. Who is locking who from whom?

The Kate/Jack/Sawyer plotline is in the ditch.
I prefer the sci-fi items - secret of the island, Valenzetti numbers, etc., but the “love triangle” is always intriguing. Unfortunately, I think they overplayed their hand in season two. I’m not advocating for pablum, but there are certain storytelling parameters and audience trust issues that they have disregarded, and it has taken the legs out of this particular “soap” plotline, for me anyway.
When they allowed Sawyer and Kate to have a real relationship, cages and beyond, Jack’s furtive fawnings for Kate made him seem pathetic, petty and dislikeable, and her switch back to Jack makes Kate look like the town bicycle. Essentially, the writers have betrayed the Sawyer character, a character they spent quite bit of effort enriching. Seems foolish.
Oh well, it’s just dressing.

Hey, usually theres 100 more pages of comments to read, whats up!? I’ve got hours left here at work. ANYWAY… long time reader, first time poster… any one catch the sweet peaks at kates limbs last night? Yeow!
Besides that, I believe the love triangle and the sci-fi aspect are about to meet head on. Think about what Hurley said about being dead, and about how Jack isn’t supposed to take care of “him” (aaron?)
What caught my attention was Jack saying to Kate “I’m the one who’s here.” (etc.)
Remember Charlie said “yes, I’m dead… but I’m also here.”
Not sure where I’m going here exactly, but I’m always intrigued by the wandering dead aspect. Dead who don’t know they are dead. Perhaps a seemingly well done appendix operation, didn’t turn out so well after all?
Man, Kate does have amazing legs though :)

Why did Jack say to Kate that he’s the one that saved her?
So this is post-Kate’s trial and pre-Jack with a beard…but where does the flash forward from earlier in the season with Hurley fit in? The one where they played horse? I’m assuming it’s after that since Hurley still seemed pretty normal then.
Rose’s comment to Bernard was interesting about how people get better on the island, not sick. Maybe only people who are chosen, who are meant to be there get better and the people the island are trying to get rid of get sick.
I’m still confused about what exactly Charlotte and Dan and Miles are all doing there and why they were hand picked by Abbadon to go on the mission with Naomi. If their mission was really to get Ben, it seems like Keamy and crew could have taken care of that…why did they really need a physicist and an anthropologist? I can see needing Dan to shut off the gas, but he seems pretty useless after that and Charlotte hasn’t done anything except be rude and complain.

Who was Kate on the phone with?…were the writers just trying to show Jack’s paranoia? Was the person she was talking to the same him she had to get back to from the airport in last season’s finale? Is it Ben?
In last week’s episode with Ben and Sayid, he was obviously playing on Sayid emotions to manipulate him to do his work…that creepy smile after they talked in the alley-thing. Maybe Ben is somehow manipulating Kate to do his bidding also.

I did some baseball research..we are a bunch of baseball nuts in this family…Boston beat the NY Yankees in the 2004(flight 815 crash year)American League Championship…they went on to beat the St.Louis Cardinals to break “the curse of the Bambino” and win the 2004 World Series. I guess this was the tape that Ben showed to Jack when he was the Others prisoner. The American League championship took place from Oct.12 to Oct.21 and the 2004 World Series was played Oct.23 to Oct.27. Flight 815 disappeared on Sept.22 2004.
Here is something coincidentally weird…2004 was ARod’s first season with the Yankees…Yankess third basemen Aaron Boone(!)had suffered an injury and there was an opening at third base so he agreed to switch positions from shortstop(which was Derek Jeter’s position). ARod set a bunch of new records with the Yankees that season. Jack says something about ARod when he is looking at the newspaper.
I guess some kind of time travel thing would have had to happen for this to have been all happening in 2004…
I am still a little confused on the flash forwards…last season’s finale flash forwards with Jack and Kate seem to have taken place after the ones which we saw last night.
I cannot remember exactly what the newspaper article Jack was reading said…does anyone else?

I had a thought about Sawyer and the island. I think it is possible that Sawyer got off the island and is living in secrecy (a la Michael/Kevin).

Three things:
1. I saw at least two references to Jack’s control issues - once during the appendectomy and also when he is quesitioning Kate about who she visited. The tight shot on her face during the latter scene hints that she is finally realizing Jack has a major character flaw.
2. Hurley’s dilemma is yet another example of the living/dead theme. I remember in the very first season, one of the theories of the show was that everyone died in the plane crash but not everyone realizes it.
But Hurley also questioned whether they were dreams and questioned reality itself, which remind me of Buddist philosphy. So, yet another religious theme!!
3. Lastly, there were at least two tight camera shots on the Millenium Falcon. Does anyone have an idea what this might mean, other than the obvious allusion to space travel?

I just assumed that it was to easy to think it could be them.

Good points — I’ll add that there is believe to be a phenomenon called a psychic imprint, where if something tragic happened, the energy created by the event can stay in place and “replay”. So Miles may have heard the psychic imprint.

Is it me or do they never really show a good view of Aaron’s face? When Jack was reading the bedtime story to Aaron, the camera was kind of at an angle, and then when he came into the living room when Jack and Kate were arguing Aaron was sort of covering his face with his stuff animal and then Kate was blocking him when she went over to hug him. So we never really get good views of what Aaron looks like.

Maybe the island is trying to puni8sh jack for leaving. He is not supposed to leave yet he is trying to get everyone off. Island is punishing him?
I think Sawyer may be so protective because his whole life has been revolved around killing Sawyer(Locke’s dad). Now he has accomplished it and now has nothing else to live for. Everyone has to have a life purpose and Sawyer now does not have one. Claire and Hurley all have become like family to him. The only family he has. It may be something he has always wanted but has been to blind to see. He may look at Hurley and Claire as like his brother and sister, that could be why Miles asked him about being her brother. He seems to be protecting them the way someone would protect their family.

I agree. Afterall, didn’t he know the pilot of Oceanic 815? I think he was actually supposed to be the pilot. So I couldn’t imagine Lapidus wanting to harm the Losties. Part of me doesn’t think that Lapidus, Miles, Daniel and Charlotte are there to do harm to them. The one I really don’t trust is Charlotte.

I thought when they were first showing Aaron laying on the bed and Jack reading to him that he looked A LOT like Claire, maybe that is why they shot at that angle. No major storyline reason, just showing continuity between the real mom and Aaron.

This is just a mention to last week’s episode. When Hurley said at the beginning of this season to Jack that he should have never gone with Locke, could he have been referring to going with Locke and Ben to find Jacob?

A few things i was thinking about.
1. Stars Wars toy..i think has to do with the fact (as said above somewhere) that Skywalker was raised by an uncle as Arron was being raised by Jack
2. I’m thinking that CS is taking Claire to Jacob’s cabin
3. Jack asked for a presciption of Clonazepam the same drug Hurley was taking.
4. The X-ray Jack is looking at is of an osteblastoma (tumor) on the L-4 vertibrate..familiar? Ben’s tumor was also on the L-4.
5. Jack was reading Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland to arron…i was wondering if anyone knows the exact part of the story he was reading.
6. Miles told Sawyer he was “good with kids” interesting.

Most of the episode titles seem to have more than one meaning. The obvious meaning for this ep would be Kate at home for Jack. Any thoughts on a different meaning? Maybe Jin making sure Sun gets home, making her his “something nice back home?” Just guessing….

I think this is extremely important. The only other main character that we have seen get sick is Ben. I think Rose’s comment was supposed to remind us of this and provide a connection between the two characters.
I agree that the falcon was to show that this was Kate’s house. This is important because Jack received the work call on the home phone, so this relationship has been pretty serious for a decent amount of time now that he is having work call at Kate’s house. This is interesting too, because it looks very different than the place where Jack was when he saw Hurley’s car crash on TV. At this point Jack was already drinking pretty heavily (he spiked his orange juice) but this is before Hurley is in Santa Rosa… and therefore (presumably) before last night’s episode occurred.

aside from title references, bernard specifically said to jack “don’t you want to be knocked out, thing of something nice back home”
my big question: if jack isn’t supposed to be raising aaron, and CS visits him back in the “real world” after Hurley tells him this, why the hell would CS lead Claire away, presumably leading to the reason kate and jack are raising aaron?

Is there any way that this set of flash forwards can be before Kate’s trial?
Can Jack accept Aaron as in this episode, then reject him later, as he seems to in the Kate-centric episode?
Just asking because many have theorized that the sequence of flash-forwards in reverse-chronological.

I had another thought with the Millenium Falcon and Star Wars references in the episode…maybe it is saying something about fathers and sons…alot of that in Lost. Jack is being a surrogate father to Aaron who is actually his nephew. In Star Wars Luke Skywalker is raised by his uncle(and aunt) and later finds out that his father is someone who was basically an immaculate conception and started out with a mission to do good but was turned to do evil’s bidding.
Sounds kind of like the manipulations and twists and turns of Lost.

Hey guys love the analysis so far. Here is my input. There are alot of questions going around about the people from the freighter and why they are working together. I think if you put it into context with the info we have been given it makes sense. They are all working for Widmore sho put the expeditoin togehter obviously to get the ilsnad back under control. It is assumed that Widmore is affiliated with Dharma and used to be in the mix of the control of the island somehow. Right? I believe all the scientific and paranormal investigators from the freighter were never meant to make a return voyage. Thats why the mercs are there. Teh mercs are there to get Ben and get rid of anyone that has any knowledge of the island to keep it safe including our litlle dynamic foursome of Miles, Dan, Frank, and Violet. They were chosen because they knew to much about the Dharma experiments so they were perfect pics because they had the knowledge and needed to be gotten rid of to protect the island. It also seems like everyone that makes it back to the “Real World” eventually starts having visions in one form or another. Like Widmore with the scothch by his bed, Jack, Hurley. I wonder what kind of visions Bens having? And if all the other Oceanic 6 will suffer the same fate.

Wow - great observances everyone. Here are the ones that stood out most to me:
- Kate’s tooth was one of the first things I noticed. It seemed odd - Evangeline L. has such a pretty smile everwhere else.
- There were moon and stars on the fridge and hanging above Aaron’s bed.
- Then there’s the Mil. Falcon - two nods to space. Or star wars nod could be due to the fact that luke and lea were not raised by their parents.
- Maybe Sawyer didn’t want anyone to know that he had a kid. Kate might be hooking up little Clementine with her inheritance.
- But why did Sawyer “choose” to stay on the island - to protect the other who wanted to stay?
- Like the smoke alarm going of when Christian appeared - a nod to smokey.
- What was up with the Christ-like set up of Aaron in the jungle. Reminded me of a manger scene.
- Kid’s monster drawing on the fridge like the one in Aaron’s bedroom.
- How we heard the “shots” that killed Carl and Danielle - what else has Miles heard on the island that he hasn’t shared yet?
- What was the point of Juliet telling Kate about her kissing Jack and then saying to Jack - I know you’ve been awake. I didn’t get the last part of doing that.
- Hurley saying that Jack is going to be “visited” next. Reminded me of the Christmas Carol - ghosts of Christmases - past, present and future. Do we have visits by losties past? And was Christian Jack’s visitor?
- Is Hurley right? Are they all dead? What else has Charlie told him - he says they just sit together.
- Where did Christian take Claire. Are Claire and Christian going to meet up with Ben, Locke and Hurley at Jacob’s cabin?
That’s all for now! What a great show. It didn’t have as much action as it did last week - but it still rocked!

It was the same merc that got dragged into the jungle by smokie in last weeks episode and the spot where smokie grabbed him looked all burnt and mangled but he was still alive.

I thought last night’s episode was pretty good. The thing I found interesting was that both Jack and Hurley seemed to be back in the same place where they were before they ever got to the island. Hurley was back at a mental clinic talking with “imaginary” friends. Jack was back to abusing substances, being overly jelous/ suspicious/ paranoid about what his woman was doing. Kate was the only one that has appearently been changed by the island experience. UNLESS there is something behind her phone conversation.

Maybe Smokey isn’t so good at killing people. He’s only killed two in the whole time he’s been there, and if you hide in those trees he can’t get you. He could have gotten Locke that time that Locke just stood there and stared at him (don’t remember what season that was), but he didn’t. Maybe he just wanted to scare the people?

I am sure Roses’ comment meant something, but we did see Sawyer extremely ill. He was shot of the raft. Floated back to the island. Captured by Eko/Ana. Got a real bad infection. Barely made it back to the Swan. Got treatment and still nearly died. Took weeks to get better. Seems like the island made no effort to cure the infection.
About operations and Jack getting knocked out and then implanted with something, while that could be… a devious Bernard/Juliet with an absent Kate… didn’t Sawyer have an episode on the Hydra Island with Ben?… wasn’t that the threat of a defib implant that could stop James’ heart, like it did the bunnies’? How about all of the gals that got the “fertility clinic” treatment from Juliet and Ethan? Did they get implanted with some type of device?

Well if she is doing things for Ben, isn’t it possible that she could be helping the Losties left on the island, like Sawyer. Remember Ben telling Sayid something about “You want to help your friends, don’t you?” So if she was working for Ben, she could be doing something for Sawyer….

So is it a possibility that the “Kate & Jack” we saw last night happened AFTER Jack has already gone through his drinking/drug problems? Maybe he has already cleaned up by the time he and Kate get serious. That would explain Aaron’s age.

Nothing has happened to cause this, is just ‘randomly’ happened.

when jack got out of bed, i did not see any scar to indicate the appendectomy. all the more reason to watch this episode again. i didnt even know that Bernard was a DDS, and what is a DDS?
just wanted to point out that jack’s character flaw of being super jealous and having trust issues is because of what happened in his marriage with the blonde neck fixer upper girl. i dont recall him being like that before, (or they never showed it) but i just wanted to say that its a result of a past situation. he is perfect in every other way ;p
i think at this point he also knows that aaron is his relative, why else would you bring up such a point, randomly?
sawyer and jin either died back at the island or are protecting those that decided to stay there. i cant think of what locke is doing, maybe the next ben?
where is alpert and the rest of the ppl? we have yet to see the temple…sigh so many questions!!!
it was sort of a disappointment that this episode did not follow the intensity of last week’s episode, considering also that the first half of this season was pretty much nonstop action packed episode after episode. i guess they need to slow things down a bit so we can catch our breath and take it chill. next week better be back to high intensity!! i love talking to my tv!!

DDS is generally referred to as Doctor of Dental Science (aka Dentist, Periodontist, ‘Jaw Breaker’) meaning he has the medical skills to administer anesthesia for Jacks abdominal surgery, get the local shot, stitch the wounds, sterlize the incision site, pass the surgical tools to Juliet, etc….
Good point about Jacks’ marriage. Last nights episode reminded me that we saw his ex-wife in the far future flash-forward where Jack says ‘we have to go back’. Funny how he was going to marry Kate in the story last night, but they appear to never get any closer - because a year (or so) after the Kate proposal - he still has his ex-wife Sarah listed as his ‘emergency contact’ with the hospital. He never changed it to Kate, even though he was living with, sleeping with and proposing to Kate in this FF. hmmm-

From the news article concerning the red sox/yankees “The sweep was more emphatic last August, when the Yankees rampaged into Fenway Park and won three games to bury the Boston Red Sox. The best the Yamkees could do this time was to win three at Yankee stadium and chisel a cuhnk from Boston’s sizable league in the American League East.” The article goes on to state that Curt Schilling was the losing pitcher and Robinson Cano hit 2 home runs. the Yankees won 5-0.

Curt Schilling lost to the Yankees 5-0 on August 30, 2007. In that game Robinson Cano hit 2 home runs. ARod was 0-3 in the game, with a run, walk and sstolen base. Nothing to spectacular. If that date is correct, how old would that make Aaron?

Given the information in the article, there is only one viable date for time: August 31, 2007. Given Aaron’s birth on November 1, 2004, and ignoring any relative time distortions, this would put Aaron at around 2 years and 10 months old.

Im not sure who asked this or if it has been answered but Jack DID have a scar. You could see it when he picked up the razor when he was by the sink and Kate was taking a shower.

The island can heal and the island can make you sick. Maybe it made Jack sick because he’s trying to leave. Maybe it made Ben sick (his cancerous tumor) and we don’t know why?
Maybe the island is making Jack a pill-popping drunk because it wants him back.

When Jack got the phone call from work, what exactly did the lady on the other end say to him? It was something like, “I know how important your calendar is to you”. Is he having issues with remembering dates because of the time warp? Did she say it because he is hung over all the time? Not sure what she said but I am sure it was significant.
Loved the show!!! Rose rocks!

I think smokey only kills when it wants to, and for a reason. It seems like it could have easily killed Locke in season 2, and Juliet in season 3. Or Jack, Charlie & Kate in the pilot. Must not have killed the mercs for a reason.
Heard it somewhere else, but, how about the smoke alarm going off? Smoke(y) is what sets them off, right?

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.

.. And “Red” speaks Korean !

Great episode.
Juliette working for Ben…I believe it could be.
Aaron definitely could be close to 3…thanks for the research on the baseball article.
So, we know Sun gave birth (approx 6 months post island), Hurley visited and was fine…two years later he is crazy and locked up…
Wouldn’t surprise me to have Kate doing something for Sawyer but getting the info from Ben….
Why did they make red know korean…why does that matter to the story line?
Love the “can’t let Jack move, appendix might rupture” so he is up and walking to his OR tent.
Did Jack want Kate in there so Juliet wouldn’t do something wrong (implant the device that was “implanted”in Sawyer…)
Loved the “its too early for chinese…” line.
Can hardly wait until next week…really, Jin is alive!!

Do you think that Red works for Mr. Paik? (Is that the right name… Sun’s Dad?) I don’t trust her at all. I hope they tell more about her soon. She is always so snotty!

in an earlier episode (first part of the season, I think) there was a FF (?) of Daniel sittin in front of a TV looking kind of nuts and medicated and crying. There was a news report about finding the Oceanic flight. What was that all about? What’s he crying about?

At least they gave her something to do, some reason to be there. I think one of the reasons nobody likes her is because no one knows anything about her except that she found a polar bear in Tunisia. That, and she has a snotty attitude. She is starting to remind me of Nikki.
Comment 265, posted 1 year, 2 months ago - Quote and reply
HI! Here goes:
1. Juliet: Maybe I’ll end up blind-sided for this in revelations from future episodes, but as of now….Gotta love her! I feel the need to defend her. She along side Sawyer have greally grown to become big favorites of mine. I think she’s totally in love with Jack so that is one reason why she wanted to save his life. Her kiss and tell to Kate was a formal—yes, we both love him, but he truly loves you, Kate, and I’m stepping out of the triangle. I saved him for me, but for you, too. She made sure Jack heard it to get him to “wake up” and go after Kate!!!! Maybe a bit of redemption for her own devastating affair with Goodwin? The shaving….well, doesn’t a doc normally shave a large area around an incision area??? She’s alright…I think after the Goodwin murder and dying, pregnant women, she’s against Ben. She warned Jack about Ben’s jealousy. She’s chomping at the bit to get back to her sis and nephew to share in her sister’s happiness. She totally wants to see Sun get off the island to get some redemption for the loss of the pregnant women that so devastated her. Maybe even giving up her own rescue for Sun?
2. Jack: He darn well knew he had apendicitis (sp?). He was a stubborn mule about it, trying to pass it off as food poisoning to Juliet. Come on! Well, yes, maybe he has decided he doesn’t trust Juliet anymore and wanted to risk it as opposed to letting her mess with it. I go with the stubborn theory, though. Wanting to control the operation himself? C’mon, Jack! Get a grip! Good for Juliet telling Bernard to “get him out of here!”
Did any ponder how Jack immediately engaged Kate after Hurley’s foreboding? His reaction seemed to indicate he already knew/had been told of what Hurley said (by Christian?), Hurley confirmed it, and he wanted to immediately intervene and control it/fix it so it wouldn’t come true, for sis Claire’s sake and Aaron’s!
Jack’s interrogation of Kate, re: phone converation….jealousy??? Nah! They are totally true loves! He has been very hands-off about the whole Kate/Sawyer thing. I think the phone reaction was an “oh, great, island crap and lies coming up again!!!! What now? Can I fix it/control it?”
3. Lostie lies?: Okay, so are we getting into Losties covering up lies to fellow losties? Are there lies upon lies? I still can’t help but think Sun is covering up something about Jin to Hurley, and now Kate covering up something to Jack.
4. Kate: Yes, so who was she talking to? Any remote possibility Kate was talking to Sawyer?
5. Errand for Sawyer? Well, I can only think of Clementine, too. His money? I really think Sawyer may let that go. Maybe Kate would give money for Clementine since she got a “substantial settlement” from Oceanic. Sawyer’s money is dirty money from his dirty past. He changed. I don’t think he’d want to give his dirty money to his daughter now.
6. The 4 tots: Want to know more about them.
7. LOL—Star Wars thoughts:
Luke Skywalker was raised by his Uncle Owen and Aunt Veru. Aaron is being raised by his uncle Jack??? Half-uncle? I felt like we got the hint in this last episode with his “You’re not even related to him! (but I am!?)” lash out to Kate that Jack has found out he’s related to Aaron. Good ‘ol Uncle Owen knew the dark secrets of his brother/Luke’s father, Anakin. Is there some dark secret about Aaron?
Sawyer does seem a bit Han Solo-ish lately. The Millenium Falcon was Han Solo’s ship. Could this be an indicator we’ll see Sawyer come up again? When Sawyer and Kate were locked up together by the others, it seemed remniscent of Han Solo and Princess Leah locked up together..

She might work for Paik as Trixianna suggested. She does seem very snobby. She has lied to them from the very beginning when she told them “we are here to rescue you”, when she must have known, like Faraday, that was NOT their mission. She might, however, be turning the corner. We will have to wait and see if she “saves” Sun, as she told Jin she would.

I thought the term “Smokie” was just a fan created nickname for the monster, and not that it is actually made of smoke, can anyone confirm that it is actually made of smoke? I also thought somewhere in the podcasts D&C made a reference to the fact that the “Smoke” monster is not quite made of smoke.
Anyway that may dispel the idea that it was setting off the smoke alarm (which wasn’t exactly being set off, just beeping because the battery needed replacement).
I don’t think there should be any doubt that this episode is BEFORE the Jack Meltdown. This is episode where we see how Jack began getting his pill prescription, the female “doctor” (lol, j/k) had no problem writing him a prescription, whereas in the later flash, he is sneaking around with it, using his pops as a ruse.
I thought the reason that Miles heard Danielle was because her spirit was trying to prevent them from heading the direction they were going (was Karl’s talking too?) as her yelling, “no, no, no, etc.” did NOT occur when she got shot. Plus, Miles seems to talk to dead folks as if it is conversation, not as if he was following a trail.

By the time that scene happens, Jack has seen the apparitiion of his dead father at least once, probably more. Someone who is seeing their dead father (and probably speaking to him) might say something like that, don’t you think?
Someone else mentioned that Sawyer might be dead and visiting Kate — but what about Jin visiting Sun? Now that makes sense when you think about how Sun thought she would see him when she was giving birth, no?
True. But when Jack says that to the other doctor in the scene, it was like there was no dispute. As if others could see Christian too, right? Jack says something about Christian being upstairs in the hospital ‘working’ and the other doctor didn’t even debate it.
I’ll agree its possible for Sawyer to be visiting Kate. But I don’t think Jin/Sun meetings are taking place. If Sun was visited by Jin, I’m not sure she’d go visit his grave and talk to him about how much she misses him-seems like she’d just wait for him to visit again. Also, she spoke to the grave as if she must’ve been loopy when asking for him while speaking about the birth.

Rousseu & Carl….nothing stays buried on the island
At first when Jack was feeling ill…I thought he was experiencing a rift in time like Desmond….that’s why he kept insisting -almost to himself - that he was dehydrated since that can lead to hallucinations.
Didn’t Claire get sick on the island too?
I like the theory that Charlotte is on the island, in part, working for Mr. Paik. As a result part of her mission: to keep Jin on the Island and away from Sun.

Comment 277, posted 1 year, 2 months ago - Quote and reply
I was thinking that Bernard telling Jack to think of Something Nice Back Home was an indication that Jack’s flashforward is actually in his past. As I have posted before, my theory is that Jack has travelled back in time to the island and is reliving island events without knowing it. This would make sense because in his off island life he still has his flaws and hasn’t learned the island’s lessons. In the pilot episode Jack wakes up in a way very similar to how Ben woke up last week in the desert. And Jack tells Kate that he blacked out and doesn’t remember the plane crash. Kate, in contrast, remembers the whole thing.
The whole appendectomy scar, however, is confusing because he doesn’t have the scar on the island before the surgery. The scar must be significant though because there was no other reason for the extended towel scene in the flash forward except to show us Jack’s appendectomy scar.

Oh my, that’s quite the good thought. It would explain a LOT.
Additional thoughts:
1) Jack has no scar, but I’m not sure that means anything. Locke has no scar either and when they remove your kidney, they about cut you in half. He should have a huge, highly visible scar.
2) I think that Hurley, sad as it may be, is quite crazy. I don’t believe the six are dead. I was one of the “the surviors are dead” theorists in season two, and we were told specifically by the producers that the losties are not dead. Unless, like Whitmore, they are changing the rules as they go.
3) I was thinking about what would cause Kate to keep such a secret from Jack, knowing how badly he would react to that refusal after she told him that involved Sawyer. I thought of two possibilities: 1) by helping Sawyer, she is doing something illegal and placing herself at risk by breaking the terms of her parole or
2) she was talking to Ben on the phone and that he is manipulating her bond with Sawyer. She would never tell Jack if she was in contact with Ben.
4)An FYI - the drugs that Jack asked for are a benzodiapine - medications that are typically prescribed for issues of anxiety, and less typically insomnia. They can be highly addicting, and a very poor choice to drink alcohol on top of - a really addictive type of behavior. With his future downward spiral a la other FFs, clearly this is his jumping off place. This combo of drugs and booze is going to create a really flat affect, impulsivity and poor judgement, so yeah, Jack’s happy place is going all kinds of south.
I just can’t decide if it’s because he saw his dead dad or because he has taken to heart the prophecy of Charlie, and that he’s “not supposed to raise him.” Maybe he is terrified that his happy life is going to be torn away from him, that they were better off staying on the island and that they made the wrong choice because that wasn’t what the island wanted them to do. I think that Charlie is not a benign ghost - he was so jealous in life - why not death?

And oh yeah, I forgot….
I’m not buying that Daniel is all that good either. That dealio between him and Red - seemed just a bit too good cop/bad cop, plus outside the medical station, that look that passed between the two of them seemed to have significance to me. I’m not convinced that he’s a bad guy, but I completely believe that he’s holding secrets and that he has his own ulterior motive for wanting to be on the island. And if the losties get in the way of his accomplishing that goal, I don’t doubt that he will look at them as so much chattle.
Also I’m not sure that Jack getting sick is highly significant. I know Rose believes that everyone that comes to the island is healed, but why then do pregnant women die? (Not that pregnancy is an illness, but still…) Maybe it is another faith vs. science issue.

I think Kate is having to work with/for Ben. Maybe in return for getting to raise Aaron or the sweet deal she got on the murder charges. She never says she is talking to or meeting Sawyer..it is always “him.” But that she did do a favor for Sawyer. I would guess meeting Ben and doing whatever he wants her to do (ala Sayid) is a favor for Sawyer if that is why Ben is allowing Sawyer to remain alive. Jack considers Ben to be the “bad guy” so to learn Kate is working with/for him would totally mess with his mind.
Claire did know her father. But does not know He is also Jack’s father. Jack’s father was in the casket on the plane that Jack found empty. Why wasn’t Claire a little puzzled as to why her father showed up on the island? Could Claire actually be dead from the blast? Miles could see Christian because he does “see dead people”.
