Lost Not-So-Recap: Something Nice Back Home

Once again, way too much happened last night for me to be able to write a decent recap, so I’ll just talk about some burning questions…

Hurley: We’re dead and in Heaven

OK, so he may be a little crazy, but he’s got a good point. From Kate looking “airbrushed” to things just being too good to be true - maybe they are in some sort of otherworld? Very 6th Sense.

Kate working for Sawyer?

I don’t know if I believe her. I have a feeling she lied to Jack about Sawyer. I was totally expecting her to say Ben when Jack forced her to admit what it was that she was doing. Could it be that Ben is manipulating her emotions for Jack and Sawyer and as such forcing her to lie. I find it interesting that we haven’t seen Ben in the Jack/Kate/Hurley flash forwards, but we have seen him with Sayid. Surely, he’s going to be manipulating all of the Losties in the future.

Jack’s Sickness

The only thing interesting I found about Jack’s sickness was what Rose said: This Island is supposed to heal. I haven’t yet figured out what the connection between healing and hurting is on the Island, but I want to say that it’s got something to do with what I saw in a Family Guy episode: Peter is on a golf course on the day of his anniversary and he gets knocked unconscious. Death shows up and won’t let him wake up until he comes to some sort of profound realization (that it’s his anniversary and he should do something for his wife). Maybe Jack needs to have this light switch moment before he can really be healed (emotionally and physically) by the Island? Oh, and what happened to Jack’s appendix surgery scar in the future? That leads me back to my first question: is Hurley right?

In other news: do you trust Faraday? What about Charlotte? Yes, Danielle and Karl are really dead…and what’s up with Myles? We know that Faraday and Lewis are here for scientific purposes, but Miles’ “this isn’t waht I signed up for.” was also intriguing. I love it when Juliette becomes bossy and manipulative. “I know you’re awake” - that was great. If more than one person is seeing Christian Shepherd, then there’s something more to him than we know. Maybe he is Jacob? Or maybe he’s a thrid part of the Ben vs. Widmore battle?

Can’t wait for the final few episodes!
