LOST: WHAT KATE DID (6x02 RECAP)
Besides setting up a potentially kick ass spin-off called “Ethan:The Creepy OBGYN”. This episode slowed things down a bit and started to set up all the players in Season 6.
Was anyone else curious where Sawyer bought that diamond engagement ring. Did I miss the episode where we revealed the Tiffany’s store in Other-Ville. (It might have been near Paddy’s Pub which I didn’t realize had another location besides Philadelphia which explains Mac’s presence.
While ultimately last night was more about character there are some good theories, mainly the one I’m still holding on to is that the Temple People are bad guys and Smocke is a good guy. Also I don’t trust people with bare feet, put on some shoes.
THEORIES
From LOSTPEDIA
-Claire has become the “new” Rousseau (note the parallel- both of them arrived at the island pregnant, but had their baby taken from them). It was Claire who placed the dropped-rocks trap and the bear trap.
-The taxi driver, the two nurses, and the cop were all listed in the credits. The mechanic was played by Jeff Kober was not listed in the credits. Previously, they deliberately left Marvin Candle/Pierre Chang from the credits in Orientation. The mechanic will prove to be an important/recurring character with connections to other Lost characters. (See below for more)
TOTALLY LOST (EW)
-Could it be that the creative design of Lost’s sixth season, embedded and suffused with past episode resonance, is a clue to resolving the mystery of its seemingly split reality? I am wondering — and perhaps you are, too — if these corresponding events across parallel realities are meaningful synchronicities. It’s almost as if no matter the world, these people are destined to intersect and to play out variations of the same essential drama. THEORY! It’s all about reincarnation. The Sideways world is basically the afterlife for the Island castaways. Their Sideways selves contain the experiences of their Island World identities within their genetic make-up/spiritual essence.
- Chop shop: legal or illegal establishment that makes new vehicles out of old, stolen, or recycled parts. In other words… another reincarnation/afterlfe metaphor! If there was a Greek god most likely to run a chop shop, it would be Hephaestus, the Greek deity of metallurgy and toolmaking. Hephaestus, who was also famous for being very ugly, built all the chariots for all the gods. He also constructed their shackles, too. One of his most famous jobs was making the manacles used to bind the rogue god Prometheus, who earned Zeus’ enmity for giving fire to mankind. Fire = free will and humanity’s empowerment to forge their own destiny apart from the Gods. Depending on who’s telling the story, Prometheus is either the devil or man’s best friend. (My Note: What does that mean, I don’t know but it sounds cool)
A Brief (Missing) History of Time
Aldo got up in Kate’s grill and reminded her that he was the all-grown-up-now Stephen Hawking-reading Other-boy that she and Sawyer assaulted outside Room 23 back in season 3. In doing so, Lost was cleverly reminding us of a significant gap in the Island’s story. The Oceanic 6 left the Island on the same day that the LeftBehinders started time traveling. That was around January of 2005. The dating of the current Island drama: December 2007/January 2008. That’s about 36 months of Island history that we have not seen. During that time, Aldo grew up. What else changed during that window? Well, for starters, someone disturbed the circle of ash around Jacob’s cabin and ransacked the joint. Also: Richard’s tribe of Others set up camp on the beach. Perhaps season 6 will help fill in the blanks.

That’s all I got for this week. Until then, I’ll be writing Rose and Bernard fan fiction and still wondering where the hell Vincent is.

Firestarters of the Day: Bel Air, MD-residents Nick and Anna Berte took a page out of Bill Watterson’s Big Book of Crazyass Snowmen and fitted their 10-foot-tall creation with a flamethrower. Because that’s a completely normal thing that normal people do.
Here’s to Nick and Anna Normal. Don’t ever change.

9. Be able to honestly express how you feel. Showing how you feel is very important, but it is equally important to say the words. Geeky girls are often more introspective than average, and can often articulate how they feel or what they want. It is important to be able to reciprocate.
