finally saw last week\'s episode. good stuff. i really enjoy the locke/alpert/ben conversations, especially the locke/ben dialogue. pretty cool that alpert told locke about dying in the future. that was neat. i was hoping for a lot more about alpert. does jacob even really exist? could jacob be alpert? he seems pretty supernatural himself. the expression on juliet\'s face when kate got into the sub had me laughing. really looking forward to some ajira stuff tonight. tonights gotta be a game-changer episode. that generally means it\'s a total mind fuck.
michael emerson on the finale: [spoiler]We have two kinds of huge shocks at the end of this one. Each one alone would be enough to keep an audience eating its own soul for the whole hiatus, but with two, I don\'t know what you can do with that.[/spoiler]
gonna be a long 8 months, though, that\'s for sure.
My whole problem with them wanting to detonate the bomb and blow up the hatch is that it seems like an exercise in futility. If "whatever happened happened" then regardless of what happens to the hatch in 1977, won\'t someone just come along and rebuild it in the future? How do they know that detonating the bomb wasn\'t what originally happened anyway?
Great episode though.
exactly what i was thinking. they seem to be putting a lot of stock in faraday\'s theories. i\'m still not sold on the "whatever happened, happened" theory, though.
