Lost Season 6 Episode 2

Lost Season 6 Episode 1 was a tale of two cities. On the one hand was a group of people who landed as scheduled. On the other was a group of people still trapped on the island, including dead Juliet and dying Sayid.

Jack gets paged when the flight lands. There’s been a mix up involving the “cargo” he checked in Sydney. The coffin was never put on the plane. It’s not there, and they don’t know when it will arrive because they’re not exactly sure where it is.

Sawyer stays behind to bury Juliet, while the others go to the temple with Hurley to try to save Sayid. Underground, things start to go wrong. Kate disappears. Hurley starts yelling. Then Jack gets punched.

Kate asks the agent for permission to go to the bathroom. He reluctantly agrees, and there’s good reason for his reluctance, as she immediately starts breaking herself out of those cuffs. He discovers something is wrong but not in time to prevent her from smashing the door into his face and stealing his gun.

Since Miles talks to dead people, Sawyer wants him to find out what Juliet wanted to tell him before she died. She wanted to tell him: it worked.

The rest of the group are being escorted by a bunch of people with guns, who take them to the temple. They’re instructed to shoot them, until Hurley says that Jacob sent them. After opening the guitar case and reading what’s inside, they take Sayid to the spring. Seeing as how he carried the case across the ocean and through time, Hurley would like an explanation. If Sayid dies, they’re all in a lot of trouble.

Jin’s being held up at the airport. His case full of money has attracted the attention of security. Sun pretends she doesn’t speak any English, and Jin hasn’t learned either, not having been on the island.

Sayid is brought into the spring, where he’s held underwater. They can’t let him up until the hourglass runs out. After what appears to be too long, they let him up. Then they say he’s dead.

Kate finds an escape to go outdoors, where she’s made to wait in line for a cab. During her wait, she’s spotted, so she hops in the first cab she sees. He already has a customer, Claire, but Kate’s gun gives him the hint that she wants him to step on the gas.

When Hurley reveals that Jacob is dead, the entire place goes on full scale alert.

The black smoke (aka John Locke) wants the one thing that John Locke didn’t: he wants to go home.

Sawyer has decided he no longer intends to kill Jack. Rather, he’ll just let him suffer there like the rest of them.

Jack, whose father’s body is “in transit,” meets Locke at the airport. He lost a bag of knives. After they talk, Jack says he’s a spinal surgeon, and nothing’s irreversible.

Locke beats up and carries Richard away. He’s very disappointed in all of them. As he’s leaving, he passes his body on the ground.

Jack gets a “polite” request to have a conversation with the others. Either he goes with them willingly, or he’ll be dragged away. They’re gonna have to do this the hard way then. But with Sayid waking up and all, that interrupts the party.

Lost Season 6 Episode 1

Lost Season 5 left off with Juliet setting off a hydrogen bomb. The theory was that, if they do that, the flight lands as scheduled.

We start off the final season back on the plane, which hits turbulence. After some bumps, the captain apologizes for the rough ride and promises things will go smoothly from then on.

When Bernard comes back from the bathroom, Jack heads and checks out a cut he’s got on his neck. Upon returning, he bumps into Desmond. Do they know each other?

Kate wakes up in not quite as a happy a place. She’s up a tree in the jungle. When she climbs down, she runs into Miles, and he, too, is having trouble hearing. She says they’re back. If only he knew what she was talking about. Then they discover Jack and Sawyer on the ground at the hatch. Sawyer’s none too pleased that Jack was wrong and Juliet’s dead.

Back on the plane, everybody’s just having a normal flight. Kate’s still a prisoner. Hurley’s still the luckiest guy alive.

Hurley, Sayid, and Sylar wake up at the van. Sayid’s not doing so well and needs a doctor. Meanwhile, they hear a voice from under the rubble. Juliet’s not so dead after all.

Jin continues to control his wife Sun. Locke is sitting on the plane next to Boone, who we haven’t seen in a while. I hear he’s a vampire now. Locke’s convinced they could survive a crash in the water.

Having killed Jacob, Ben keeps starting at the fire. Why didn’t he fight back? Outside, Sun and Frank are with Richard, whose people say they’re the good guys. At Locke’s request, Ben goes outside to get Richard to come talk to John… who he finds is the body on the ground.

Hurley meets Jacob, the guy who gave him the ticket that landed him on that island. He’s also the guy who happened to die an hour ago. Never mind that, though. Sayid, who’s dying on the ground, needs to be saved by being brought to the temple.

The flight attendant calls for a doctor. Charlie went into the bathroom half an hour ago and is not responding, and they can’t get the door unlocked. Perhaps Sayid can be of assistance by kicking the door down. Charlie’s not breathing, but Jack pulls out a bag of heroine that was stuck in his throat and saves him.

After clearing the debris, Sawyer climbs down to find Juliet, who’s not dead but knows that the plan didn’t work.

Ben’s dragged back inside at gunpoint. Locke is in there as promised, but he breaks the news that Jacob is dead. So now they want to kill him. That cloud of black smoke coming toward them isn’t going to allow that to happen. After the guys are all taken care of, Locke apologizes to Ben for having had to see him like that.

Juliet tells Sawyer she needs to tell him something important, but that’s the last thing she says to him, for which he blames the doc.

Charlie, who’s now being escorted in handcuffs, is not happy to have been saved by Jack. He was supposed to die. As for Kate, she, too, is marched off the plane in cuffs. Locke, meanwhile, awaits assistance to be wheeled off the plane. For some, their little island paradise was not so bad.

Lost Season 6 Moves to Tuesday

Lost season 6 will be moving to Tuesdays at 9/8c when it returns on February 2. As if Tuesday weren’t an excessively busy night to begin with. Assuming V sticks around on Tuesday nights, this would allow ABC to have itself a sci fi block. It could always dump Flash Forward in there as well to make a whole sci fi night, but that seems an unlikely scenario given the success that show has seen thus far on Thursday nights.

The move to Tuesday puts Lost up against some tough competition. Obviously, there’s American Idol, television’s #1 show. Over on NBC, there’s the Winter Olympics, and then NBC’s only real non-sports success story, The Biggest Loser. Over on CBS is freshman drama NCIS: Los Angeles, basking in the success of its lead-in being the top rated show for the fall season.

Lost Season 5 Episode 17

In the first hour of the season finale on Lost Season 5 Episode 16, Ben found out he was going to be the one killing Jacob, Sayid got shot by Richard, and Kate, Sawyer, and Juliet got off the sub and returned to the island to stop Jack.

Richard has led them to a big foot. That’s where Jacob lives.

Jack agrees to give Sawyer 5 minutes to talk.

Now it’s Jack’s turn to meet Jacob. It was after his first major operation, when as usual he was having difficulty with his father.

Sawyer tells Jack the story about how his parents died. It was a year ago. With that in mind, he could have prevented it, but he didn’t because what’s done is done. So what does Jack want? He had her, and he lost her. He’s okay with the fact that, if what he does works, he and Kate will be strangers, and she’ll be in handcuffs. That said, it’s time for a bloody battle between Sawyer and Jack. Juliet has to intervene, telling Sawyer that Jack is right. She’s changed her mind and no longer wants to stop him.

Following her flashback as a child receiving news of her parents getting a divorce, Juliet says she changed her mind when she saw him look at Kate. Maybe they were never supposed to be together, even if they love each other. If she never meets him, she never has to lose him.

Jack asks about Aaron, even though Kate told him to never do so. She came back so that he could be with his mom. Perhaps she wouldn’t have actually given him up for adoption.

Hurley’s first meeting with Jacob was when he was being released from jail, despite confessing that he killed a bunch of people. Jacob tells him maybe he’s not cursed. Maybe he’s blessed. Maybe he’s also not crazy. Either way, he should be on the plane.

What happened to the rest of the statue? Ben says it was like that when he got there. Richard doesn’t want both John and Ben going to see Jacob at the same time, but that’s too bad. They go inside, and Locke gives Ben a knife.

Miles poses a question: has anyone considered that Jack is going to cause the thing he’s actually trying to prevent?

Stuart’s reinforcements have arrived to form a defense to kill Jack, who’s standing in the woods watching them. Unbeknownst to Jack, he’s got back up. Live together, die alone. The van shows up with reinforcements. When the situation’s under control, Jack gets closer and drops the bomb. So where’s the explosion? Chaos ensues as everything metal gets sucked into the hole, but that was hardly what they anticipated. A bunch of the Dharma people get killed, which is the good news, but then Juliet begins to get sucked into the abyss. Sawyer tries to save her, but she lets go.

Ilana arrives to find Richard and the others waiting outside the big foot. She wants to know what lies in the shadow of the statue, and she has something he needs to see. They open up the box. It’s John Locke’s body. So if that’s Locke, who’s in there with Jacob ordering Ben to kill him? Jacob tells Ben that he has a choice. Ben has noticed that Jacob has finally decided to stop ignoring him. He wants to know: what about me? Jacob responds: what about you? So with that, Jacob’s been stabbed. Before he’s kicked into the fire, Jacob says that they’re coming.

Having fallen to the bottom of the hole, Juliet seems fine. Relatively speaking. She’s not dead or anything. She begins smashing the bomb with a rock hoping to set it off. Well, looks like there’s the explosion they were hoping for.

Lost Season 6 will be coming in early 2010 as previously announced. As planned, it will be the final season of the show.

Lost Season 5 Episode 16

Jack and Sayid managed to find the hydrogen bomb in Lost Season 5 Episode 15. So their question is: now what? Meanwhile, Sawyer, Juliet, and Kate got on a sub to leave the island, and Locke’s off looking for Jacob so he can kill him.

Two guys whose identities may or may not be revealed are waiting on the beach for the boat to come their way. One’s named Jacob. The other will remain a mystery.

Kate looks to have gotten her bad girl ways started early, shoplifting a lunchbox from a local store. Avoiding a run in with her mom and the cops, Jacob agrees to pay for it.

Kate wants to get out of there. You’re kinda on a submarine and in the ocean. Sawyer doesn’t really care if Jack blows up the island.

Faraday has left detailed instructions how to remove the plutonium core and how to detonate it. This does not seem like a good idea to Richard. They have about two hours to get this to the swan station.

Dr. Chang stopped the drilling because the temperature went up 60 degrees. Stuart doesn’t care. He wants to keep going.

Richard wants to know how Locke’s alive. Locke responds that Richard should probably be the one able to explain it to him.

Locke intends to “deal with” the rest of the passengers from the flight that brought him there.

Lapidus is waking up from having been smacked in the face. He wants to know what’s in the box, so they agree to open it. So what is in the box?

Jacob also pays a visit to a young James Ford, who’s in the process of writing a letter to Mr. Sawyer after his parents are dead.

Sawyer would like to stick around, but the blonde’s not going to let him. Juliet beats up one of the guys, and then she frees herself and the others. They make the captain go back to the surface at gunpoint. He’s instructed to proceed on course once they’re gone, and he doesn’t have to worry about Horace contacting him because he now no longer has communications ability.

Richard asks Jack if he knows Locke, and he says that he does know him and not to give up on him.

Speaking of Richard, he’s also leading John Locke to Jacob. Locke wants to know why Ben didn’t tell Richard about his plans for Jacob (the part about killing him dead). Ben’s playing nice because his dead daughter told him to do everything he says. Well, that’s good news then. Locke’s not going to kill Jacob. Ben is. Now he doesn’t have to convince him.

Sayid also gets a visit from Jacob, though he’s not as young as the others were. Just then, Nadia’s struck by a car.

Richard has decided he’s gone as far with the boys as he wants. He strikes Eloise to knock her out and tells them they’re on their own. They enter a house and hear the place is under alert, so they dress up as members of the Dharma Initiative to try to hide in plain sight. That works for about 10 seconds before Roger shoots Sayid. Jin and Hurley show up in their VW to drive them off.

Sawyer, Kate, and Juliet arrive on shore, and they’re greeted by Vincent. Then Bernard and Rose. They’ve just been living there in the jungle for the past few years, and they didn’t want to be found. They don’t seem overly concerned about this whole being blown to bits issue the others are trying to prevent, but they do give them directions to the barracks.

The group of people Frank’s walking with, who say they’re the good guys, have found the cabin.

Jacob’s next stop is to a bandaged up woman named Ilana, who agrees to help him. She’s the woman leading Frank’s group.

Ilana enters the cabin, but he’s not there and hasn’t been for a long time. Someone else has been using the cabin, so they’re going to burn it down. Yeah, set fire to a place in the middle of the jungle.

Jacob finds John Locke lying on the ground, then he touches him and he’s okay.

Locke and his group have returned to their old camp, where they’ll be resting for the night. Ben acknowledges that he was just pretending the day they first supposedly met Jacob. He didn’t want him to know he’d never seen Jacob, so he lied. That’s what he does. Considering Ben got cancer, watched his daughter get shot, and then got banished from the island, Locke’s pretty sure he may well actually want to kill Jacob.

Sun finds the baby’s crib and Charlie’s ring, which makes her think about Jin. They, too, have met Jacob, on their wedding day.

Sayid, who’s busy bleeding, wants to modify the bomb and be there at the moment of the incident. They’ve got a flat tire, though, thanks to the trouble they’ve run into: Sawyer with a gun.

Stay tuned to dingoRUE for another live recap of Lost Season 5 Episode 17 The Incident, Part 2, which airs next on ABC.

Lost Season 5 Episode 15

Faraday came up with a plan in Lost Season 5 Episode 14. He’s going to stop the events of the last 5 seasons from happening by activating a hydrogen bomb. Upon requesting said bomb, he was shot in the back by his mom.

Not wanting to be additional victims of the shooting, Kate and Jack hope to run, but they’re unable to get away in time. Jack begins getting beaten, while Kate is told to not move at gunpoint. Eloise asks for them to be put in her tent because she knows they’re not from the Dharma Initiative.

Flash forward thirty years. Richard gets a visit from John Locke. It’s been a while. He’ll explain what happened on the way, but he doesn’t have a lot of time to talk. Ben and Sun are with him. Ben says that Richard is a kind of advisor, and he’s had that job for a very, very long time. Sun asks him if he was there in 1977 and if he remembers Jack, Kate, and Hurley. He remembers very clearly because he watched them all die.

Before he leaves, Locke gives Sun his word that, if there’s a way to save Jin and their people, he’ll find it.

Kate wants to know: what about them? If they change the plane crash, they’ve never met. It was not all misery.

Eloise asks why Daniel needed the bomb. She met a man from the future when she was younger, the same man she just shot in the back. One additional benefit to changing the future/past would be that Dan doesn’t have to be dead. She agrees to take them to the bomb. There’s a problem, though. They secured it in the ground, but since that time, someone has built an entire village over it.

Now Sawyer’s being roughed up. They want to know where Kate is. He ain’t talking. Juliet starts to say something, but Sawyer tells her not to. After beating him for a while and not getting anywhere, they realize perhaps Hugo might know something.

Since they’re outnumbered and outgunned, Miles and Jin are in the process of leaving with Hurley. They run into Dr. Chang. He believes this future story. Hugo says that’s ridiculous. What year was he born? 1931. So he’s 46 and fought in the Korean War? There’s no such thing as the Korean War. Who’s the President of the United States? Okay, enough questions. They’re from the future, and Miles is his son. Miles says that Faraday’s been right about everything, so if he said to get people off the island, it’s probably a good idea to listen.

Locke wants Richard to take him to see Jacob after they get to the plane. That’s not going to be a problem, is it? First, he takes him to the Nigerian plane. Richard must go see a man come out of the jungle who’s been shot in the leg, and tell him to bring everybody back to the island by dying. That man is/was John Locke. He knew when to be there because the island told him. Richard’s sure glad that John didn’t actually end up dying, except he did.

Dr. Chang goes to warn everyone to get off the island, and he finds Sawyer being tortured. Stuart tells him they’re going to proceed as planned, and that he’s now the one in charge. Sawyer asks that they put the women and children on the sub and get them out of there, and they’ll tell him anything they need to know if they put him and Juliet on that sub as well.

Kate has decided she doesn’t want to keep going. Maybe the gun will change her mind. Nope, she keeps walking. Shots are fired from the woods. It’s Sayid.

Sayid believes he already changed things by killing Ben. Yeah, about that, Kate saved him by taking him to the others. She doesn’t believe that killing kids and detonating bombs is okay, and she’s going back to find the rest of their people because maybe they can stop Jack if she can’t.

Sawyer is sorry he didn’t listen to Juliet when she wanted to get on the sub three years ago, but she’s glad he talked her out of it. He bids the island good riddance.

Jack follows Richard underwater to the tunnels, and Sayid decides to go with them. Either they’re going to be saved, or they’ll be put out of their misery.

Seeing as Jacob is telling them what to do, Locke wants to know who he is, especially since nobody has ever seen him before. Richard will be taking him to Jacob, and Locke invites everybody along with them for the journey. Ben’s starting to think Locke is going to be trouble. Why do you think he tried to kill him?

Sawyer’s plan is to get back to the real world, where they will be free because the Dharma Initiative has no power there.

Kate will be joining them on the sub. She’s been caught coming back.

They’ve arrived at the bomb. Now what?

Locke tells Ben the real reason they’re going to Jacob is so he can kill him.

Lost Season 5 Episode 14

Lost Season 5 Episode 13 was the story of Miles, who found out that the doctor from the videos is his father and was reunited with Faraday as a boy.

Eloise goes to see Penny in the hospital, claiming that her son Daniel was responsible for Desmond being shot.

Flashback to 30 years earlier as Faraday meets up with Miles. He wants to know who told Jack to get on a plane. It was his mother Eloise, who Faraday says was wrong.

A young Daniel is told that he doesn’t have time for distractions like playing the piano because he has to focus on his mind.

Back to Jack in a panic. He goes to see Sawyer, who’s got one of his security guys, Phil, locked up in the closet since he got a video of him and Kate taking Ben out to the hostiles.

Faraday makes his way underground into what will be the hatch. He asks Dr. Chang to order the evacuation of every man, woman, and child on the island, warning of a catastrophic accident. His reasoning behind this request: he’s from the future. By the way, Miles is his son, and he’s also from the future. Miles denies this.

Back to the future. Daniel is graduating from university and making plans to eat with his overprotective mother, who warns him that the women in his life will always be terribly hurt by his work always coming first. He tells her that he just got a new research grant from some industrialist, Charles Widmore.

Sawyer considers where they’re living now to be home, but they have no choice but to leave. They have two choices: get on the sub or head into the jungle. While they’re voting, Faraday knocks on the door and asks where he can find the hostiles. One of them is his mother, who can get them back to where they belong.

Flash forward to Faraday watching a plane crash on the TV and crying because of it, when he gets his first visit from Widmore. He came to offer him a new opportunity. The people on the plane are not dead, which he knows because he put it there. He can tell him that because come tomorrow he won’t remember that he was told. His new offer is to send him to the island to heal his mind and memory.

Sawyer doesn’t want to tell Jack where the hostiles are. So he asks Kate. Juliet gives them the code for the fence and tells them to go.

Daniel meets Charlotte as a little girl. He instructs her to listen to Dr. Chang when he tells her to go on the sub and leave the island.

As they’re grabbing guns, a shootout starts. Dan gets hit in the crossfire, but they’re able to shoot their way out of it and drive away.

Eloise tells her son it’s very important that he accept Widmore’s offer to go to the island.

Faraday tells Jack that this is their present. Any one of them could still die.

An alarm sounds as men with guns come to see Sawyer. They’ve been infiltrated. Upon checking the closet, they find Phil. Sawyer and Juliet are can get on the ground with their hands up now.

Daniel’s looking to prevent the entire chain of events that led them all there. He’s realized they can change their destiny by destroying the energy under the hatch. If they do that, Desmond won’t fail to push the button, and the plane won’t crash. How’s he going to do that? By detonating a hydrogen bomb. Yeah, that sounds safe.

Eloise tells Penny that for the first time in a long time she doesn’t know what will happen next. The nurse comes to get her, and Desmond is in recovery and doing okay. Then Eloise goes outside to leave, when she meets up with Charles, who says that Daniel’s his son, too.

Upon arrival at the hostile camp, Daniel is told that Eloise isn’t there. He asks for the bomb. As he’s counting down and warning Richard with his gun, Eloise shoots him from behind. Bad news, mom, you just shot your son.
