Haha, I like how you snuck the drink recipe into the theories list. There wasn't enough Desmond in this episode, but I liked the Rousseau callback at the end. I had totally forgotten about her.

[glueandglitter]

Haha yes! It's not LOST nite without a themed drink! The Little Prince was last nite's episode title! Tho I want to rename that drink so we can make it again. It was delicious!

I agree...not enough Desmond. He has gotten eleventy times more dreamy lately, which I would not have thought possible.

Yea!! I think the writers said in a podcast back in the day that we'd get Rousseau's story. I hope they tell it sooooon!

ps your SWC icon made my morning.

I was sure it was Aaron, but I wonder if it's Ben! Ben seemed to be the puppetmaster in that episode.

I think it also applies to Locke. Didn't the little prince "die" in order to go back to his planet? Which is what Locke did to go back to the island. Or to get the rest of them to go back. Or both, kinda. Especially if bringing Locke's body back to the island enables him to walk the hell around like Christian (*!@#(! Shephard.

Man, I wish I remembered that book better!

I totally think Locke will come back to life when his body gets to the Island. But I also think he's going to learn that he isn't the leader. I think he screwed himself by sending Richard to test him. Locke vs. Aaron? It would be fun to see Locke in crisis again!

[mathslut]

So do you think he didn't pass Richard's test? I think he DID and IS.

Aaron kinda gets on my nerves, but I would totally be cool with Walt comin' over and laying the (proverbial, non-violent, island-connection-zen-voodoo) smackdown on Locke.

[glueandglitter]

But Richard got so mad when he chose the knife! What makes you think he passed? Maybe he just chose the knife too soon?

OHMAN Walk vs. Lock! His former idol!

I don't know, I guess it sounds like crazy talk when it seems now that Richard wanted him to take the compass, but I think NOW that Richard knows that Locke was telling the truth, and that Locke survived everything he did in order to get to the island (including being totally disparaged as a child by Richard being ridiculous), it means that Locke wasn't supposed to pick the compass. He would be a completely different person had he taken it, to be swept off to become a leader as a kindergartener! I mean, Locke is definitely pretty dumb sometimes, I just think that his vulnerability makes him maybe even MORE childlike and dependent on the island than Walt, who comes across as so confident, he's almost stoic about what the island wants. So I don't know which the island would rather have as a leader, though, I can't decide now. Emotionally obsessed passion or zen-like enigmatic detachedness? Isn't that what the Dharma people were and wasn't that a total effing disaster

[glueandglitter]

I loved it!

[glueandglitter]

Yea, me either! Maybe bc I don't remember the book that well. I think I actually didn't read the novel so much as some boiled down children's picture book version.

[mathslut]

Oh oh! I didn't notice this in the ep, but I read somewhere that The Little Prince was the name of the French scientists' boat.

[mathslut]

Ha, in the book it is B612, and the French raft is called Besixdouze. How witty.
