Very good episode. But TV4 kept calling it the "season finale". It's not! There should be three more episodes, not including the summary episode which we'll probably get before any of the others. But I think we won't get any more LOST episodes here for a good while now. Bummer! Maybe I'll have to succumb to downloading.
Michael is so scary now, I love it. The mystery of it all just kills me. His expressions are just so evil. And yeah, I was wrong: I thought Michael shot himself in the heart in the previous episode; he only shot himself in the arm to make it seem like "Henry" shot Michael and the two women before escaping. My mistake. It was very sad that Libby didn't make it - it was all very Days Of Our Lives there for a moment when she gasped Michael's name before dying. I was worried she'd go in and out of unconsciousness and never be able to tell them what happened - that would have been really stupid, actually. Reminds me of my unemployed summer of 2000 where I spent every day watching DOOL, and John was with Kristen who had been really cruel to Marlena, and Marlena constantly came close to telling John the truth, but something always came in the way. It's frustrating for a while, but then it just gets really annoying because it's so obvious they're stretching it out.
Hurley's puppy dog expression was heartbreaking!
I was very excited when Eko and Locke found the question mark hatch, but I don't know what Eko is so excited about. He wants to keep pushing the button even after being told that the button means nothing? Is there something I'm not catching here? I was a little creeped out by Marvin Candle not being Marvin Candle after all. That guy is pretty creepy anyway.
Oh, and! Mr. Eko talking to that Malkin guy. I knew that name was familiar when someone first mentioned it, but I couldn't place it. But indeed, it was Claire's psychic. Did he make up that stuff about Claire? No... Why would he get her the plane ticket and everything if he did?
I wonder how this season will end. Will we see Walt again? Has he been "recruited" by The Others - and has Michael? Is he drugged, or have they influenced him in some other way? Plus all the million jillion other questions that still are unanswered.
