Re: Lost: Season Four
For a second at the end I thought it might be Abaddon and not Christian in the cabin this time, asking for his favor to be returned. Claire looked downright evil in that last scene too. It took me a while to remember that Claire had disappeared in the last episode, so I thought this one was just a projection of the island, but apparently not.
What WAS that device on the mercenary's arm anyway?

Re: Lost: Season Four
So, more time travel showing up (doctor's body hitting the trippy time field as it was drifting towards the island and getting sent back in time when his dead body was shown to wash up on shore a few episodes ago).
Not sure if Richard ages really slowly or what.
Abbadon just keeps showing up in the past and future, almost too much to ignore by design while stretching the bounds of coincidence to gather all these people onboard Oceanic 815 in 2004.
Will John have to move the island through time to hide it from Widmore and company? What sort of potential did John have as a child? A link to smokey, even as a child?
Has Claire passed on to the next phase of existence (i.e. dead, but showing up like Christian, whose dead body made it to the island, and can he appear to people on the island when he wants to appear in front of them)?

Re: Lost: Season Four
The writers of Lost are doing a great job of giving us the TV show equivalent of putting us in a box, then opening that box only for us to find out that box was within a bigger box.
I would have enjoyed a little more time playing out the doc finding out he's already been seen dead. I don't remember any of the Losties being aware of the time displacement, even though the audience is.
Bring some type of captioning to internet streaming.

That would have been better, but Keamy just showed how nasty he can be there.
Did anyone catch whether anything besides the tracker was important in the backpack that the helicopter pilot dropped on the beach group?
Some spoilers from the Podcast that was released right before the episode: and

Re: Lost: Season Four
So this time we have Richard Alpert (modeled after Ram Dass?) and Matthew Abaddon (Angel of the Abyss from Revelations?) vying for Locke's attention over his lifetime. Looks like some sort of good versus evil thing again. Especially given that Locke now owes Abaddon something next time they meet.

Perhaps not move it in the physical sense, but relocate it to a different point in time? So, when the baddies return, the island is gone... Just a theory mind you, but from what we're learning about all of the time-shifting going on, this seems like the easiest way to accomplish it. Perhaps the key to it lies in an, as yet, unexplored Dharma work station?

Re: Lost: Season Four
While moving the island might help against Widmore's larger plans, how can it help against Keamy and his group who are already there? Unless somehow it gets moved without them?

Re: Lost: Season Four
Well if it gets moved without them I picture them hanging in the air like Elmer Fudd running off a cliff.

Re: Lost: Season Four
Sticking with my good vs evil theory (and the island as the "battle-ground), are Abaddon and Alpert on the same side, or working against each other, "one light, one dark," as Locke would say. Further, are they perhaps the pre-cursors to Ben and Whidmore in "the fight?" Are Locke and maybe even Jack their successors? The two (Jack and Locke) have been placed as seperate groups for a while now, dating back to at least the "Man of Science, Man of Faith," episode...

Re: Lost: Season Four
They've officially confirmed that S5 and S6 will run 17 episodes each to make up for the two episodes they missed this year.
