LOST Recap and Review

HE’S OUR YOU
Episode 5.10
 
 
 
 
It’s five-minutes ‘til another Wednesday night of wondrous brain-gasms…then, a brandy-induced time-flash takes me to 8:00 o’clock…
 
Chickens in Iraq is how we start tonight.
 
Little boys with butcher knives and bait and one of them has neck-cracking skills! There is a very unpleased Saddam-like father who ends up congratulating his non-son for a quick and efficient kill—little Sayid.
 
In the 70s, baby-Ben is ready to serve grown-up Sayid more sandwiches. Gentle-Ben wants to know if Sayid was sent by Richard Alpert. The kid spills his guts about the Others/Hostiles and vows to help the Iraqi captive, as long as Sayid is “patient.”
 
Even as a child, Ben is such a wonderful, helping person.

N A M A S T E
Episode 5.09
 
 
 
 
Flight 316 is in the air on its’ way to the island. Frank is piloting the plane as the first signs of a storm rattle the passengers. We witness the crash and the apparent time distortion/displacement/disaster that removed the Oceanic 6 passengers from the plane and plopped them backwards in time. Surprisingly, Sun didn’t join them on their trip. Ben seems less than surprised.
 
We join Kate, Jack and Hurley reuniting with Sawyer—who manages to keep his jumpsuit zipped during a smiley-face hug with Kate.
 
Good news, dudes—you’re trapped in 1977! Sawyer catches everyone up in time for Jin to take off in a jeep in search of his beloved Sun.
 
Back in Dharma-town, Sawyer is frantically packing clothes and explaining to Juliet that “they’re back.” Juliet has mixed emotions while Sawyer is super-pumped about the return of his friends. Juliet wants to put Kate on the afternoon sub.
 
Me too.

Lost Recap & Review (5.08)

LaFLEUR
Episode 5.08
 
  
 
This episode takes us back to the island. Sawyer’s holding tightly onto the rope that leads into the naked ground. Alas, we glimpse the controversial giant statue—from behind—no toes visible. Locke is underground among the relics of the donkey wheel when we experience our first (and last) time flash.
 
The well is back—kinda. The group is relieved to be seemingly rid of “constant disease.” 
 
Three years later, a Dharma station is witnessing an unexpected visit in the middle of an old-fashioned hoe-down. Our old friend Horace has popped in with a fistful of dynamite and is ‘sploding up the landscape. The Dharma workers run for their boss, Mr. LaFleur—aka, our pal, Sawyer.
 
Along with his Dharma-jumper, I assume he finally has shoes.

WHAT?


Seriously, I don't know how to even begin to explain all the problems this latest time traveling excursion is going to bring up regarding the story arc of this frustrating, mind-boggling, amazing show.
