I agree Randall I got a tingle down my spine when Widmore said a war is coming.

i loved the episode because it was Locke-centric. Also, as soon as Widmore (and Abaddon) was brought in as a player, and said the word, “war”, it made the show have some actual meaning again towards the endgame. Lets face it, most of us watch TV for conflict and conflict resolution because its dramatic whether we like those things in real life or not. no one wants to watch people get tricked onto planes and find out where baby’s went for 7 weeks with no end in sight. you can watch a decade of Jerry Springer for that.

It seems like this might be setting up to see a younger Widmore get tricked off the island in the DHARMA time line? or maybe the Losties create a paradox and prevent the purge? it seems like that has to be tied into what Pierre Chang brought up in the comic-con video. Im still convinced the bomb is part of the endgame, for those familiar with The Stand… it has a slight parallel.

That was really nice,that stuff with Ben and Lock at the end is the best scene in the show !!
I’m starting to hate Kate.Here’s my theorie about Lock and the war,I really think he is a looser,and I think that Widmore wants Lock in the wrong side so that he will lose ! Hope you understand it !
and By the way,the guys in Tunisia weren’t Tunisians ! They were some what Algerians or marocos,but the licence plate of car were Tunisian !

I loved, loved, loved this episode!

I just watch last week’s promo for this episode and it was awful. What’s going on at the ABC promo department? I hope they know the point of a promo isn’t to summarize the upcoming episode in 15 seconds.

Anyway… I can’t wait to hear your thoughts on the episode, Donald.

I believe it was Sun. She wanted to find Jin, she wasn’t going to sit on a beach and eat mangoes!

I’ve stopped watching even the “Next week on Lost” promos at the end of the episodes and I was very happy with the episode because I had no idea what was coming. I thought it was a great episode. I’m going to rewatch it here in a few because it made my head spin last night!

Who do you think Lapidus took off with when he took the canoe? I’ve heard people speculating that it’s Sun, but I don’t know what to think.

Yeah SP I did the same thing. No more trailers for me.

I didn’t really like this episode, but it might be because I made the mistake of watching the trailer last week and it spoiled this episode completely. It felt like there was nothing new in this episode, except for the part where Ben killed Locke.
Also those visits Locke made felt kind of boring since we already knew they occured and there wasn’t anything surprising about what was said.
So, I propably would have enjoyed this episode a lot more had I not watched the trailer. I’ll never watch them again.

Great Episode, Seeing Locke back in the wheelchair was sad, but he had to come full circle.

Great show. The middle was just fan stuff we already knew but the rest was excellent and it was great to see Walt again, now he is psychic!

Love the picture of Locke in the sunglasses. What’s with the yellow shirt, did he join Sayid’s school-building team?
