I dunno...but I have a feeling the season finale will be a BIG letdown. It's gonna be something along the lines of the people on the raft finding a ship and then rescuing the others. End of Season.

The other group was looking for the dynamite, I'd assume it's the smoke from it exploding. But where was the explosion/fire? On the boat? At the hatch? Something/somewhere else?

was watching the episode again. when the french chick came back, she was telling a story about how she was pregnant and delivered her baby. she then said after a week, she saw a pillar of black smoke inland. then the others came and took her baby.

later in the episode when they're trying to bring the raft to the beach, they all see the black smoke inland. which means the 'others' are coming.

Possible spoilers below:


Pay attention to the number themes...show very much focuses on certain numbers. The string of numbers that Hurley got from the guy in the clinic play a huge role through the series. One example: the last two numbers were 23 and 42 which turned up again last as Jack's (and the girl he met at the airport bar) seat numbers. That's just one but there are tons of examples. There is also a theme of black and white running through the show. And for those that haven't watched from day 1, Walt (the little boy) isn't your normal kid...very important character, if not the most important in the long run.

As for the the big thing stomping around the jungle...it's basically a security system for the island that reacts to motion. If you pay attention to what happens when it's present, you'll see that it can't harm you if you don't move. This is why Locke was not killed, despite coming in direct contact with it. And last night, it was approaching but Locke said "don't move." Once everyone quit moving, it left. According to the writers, we'll get to see a VERY brief (5% or less) of the creature. There was speculation that it was a dinosaur but the writers have assured that it's not. But there is a possibility that it is part mechanical.

And yes, the raft will be having a bit of an issue...those aboard will be back but it has been hinted that one person will die. No clue who but apparently the Jin plays a role in season 2 and Walt is too important to die. Maybe Michael? Sawyer? Both are expendable as characters but Michael probably more so than Sawyer since he has become bit of a fan favorite.

Great show and in my opinion, one of the best ever because of it's uniqueness. They also did a great job with casting. Can't wait for the finale even though I know it's going to leave us hanging really hard for season 2.

I don't know, JJ Abrams likes to play these mind games but they don't turn out to have any real significance in the end. Look at Alias. He used the number 47 everywhere. I can't recall a single thing how it's been important, other than seeing it come up multiple times. I'm still waiting for him to get us good.

Yes, they will be running the entire season over again this Summer. However, they're moving it to another time slot (one hour later/same night). Highly recommend it if you didn't get on board for the first run. I'm actually looking forward to watching it again to pick up on a lot of subtle things that I overlooked.

I watched the season (missed a couple of episodes) but I want to do what you're doing (catch the subtle things)

Plus, I want to watch it in HD, since I just got my tuner this last weekend :p
