The Beginning of the End

It begins… D’oh! It’s a recap show!

To quote the wife, “Well, we’ve got an hour.” I’m going to take out the trash.

See you in 58.

Ok. Quick thought about the recap. I am a little unnerved that it is being narrated by Ben. Just sayin’.

Here we go. It begins… for reals this time.

8:00- Bumbelbee’s cousin, Red Hornet? (The wife recognized the car as Hurley’s)
8:03- Nope, it’s Hurley. “I’m one of the Oceanic 6!” That’s one for me.
8:04- Best. Theme Note Tone. Ever.
8:06- The story is taking place in the present. That’s 2.
8:07- “I never met her.” Lies, lies, lies.
8:08- Back to the nut house for Hurley. And flashback to the island for us.
8:10- I still don’t trust Ben.
8:13- Charlie’s dead.
8:14- The guy on the other end of the phone is named George. Naomi went missing. My money is on Ben having that knife. I still don’t trust Ben.
8:20- A kiss goodbye is all Ben needs to see. He’s found a new foothold in the love triangle.
8:21- Back to the present.
8:22- An Oceanic Representative offering an upgrade? Didn’t think so.
8:24- D’oh! Hugo’s alone.
8:25- Jacob’s left the light on for him.
8:29- Ben saw more then a kiss. Or so he says. I still don’t trust Ben.
8:30- I stand corrected. He was telling the truth.
8:31- Ambush by Naomi. That was quite a jump for someone with a giant knife wound in the spine.
8:33- Meanwhile, at Jacob’s… which is down the trail from Jacob’s… Locke seems to have been paying Jacob a late night visit.
8:40- Reunion time. Sun & Jin, Bernard & Rose, Claire &… oh yeah. Sorry.
8:43- What the WHOO-HAH!!!!! Charlie’s in the present telling Hurley that “they need you.”
8:46- Locke just got sucker punched! Jack pulled the trigger. I think he has had enough of Locke. On a theological note, that wouldn’t have been the first time science tried to kill faith. (I had to throw that in there)
8:51- Jack’s been handing out the beatings as of late.
8:54- Locke, Claire, Danielle, Ben, Hurley, Survivor #23, the teens, & Sawyer are off to the barracks.
8:57- Hurley has another visitor- Jack. Go with that beard idea, dude.
8:58- Keep your mouth shut Hurley!
8:59- Sorry? We have to go back. And here we are.
9:01- “Are you Jack?”

Ok. So what do we know?

1) We know 6 people made it off the island. We know who 3 of them are: Jack, Kate, & Hurley

2) The 6 people that came back are hiding information about what happened to the other people left on the island. At least Jack and Hurley are having second thoughts about coming home.

3) There are people trying to get to the bottom of that mystery.

4) Hurley was sorry that he followed Locke. I’m very interested to follow that series of events.

5) We know Jack wanted to grow a beard and that he made that dream come true. In spades.

Great season premiere! Welcome back survivors of Oceanic 815.

One thought on “The Beginning of the End”

  1. 1. i also knew it was hurley’s car (sandy & i must think alike)
    2. i told ben on wednesday night that i think it might be michael in the coffin too.
    3. i’ve also wondered if jack’s dad is really dead – i mean, look at mikhail – that man never dies. and we do also have two other characters who were buried alive…death isn’t what it seems on this island.
    4. who/what is Jacob??? i think when jacob told locke “help me,” he was telling him to help keep his friends on the island – thus we had locke knifing naomi at the end of last season. he and jacob are tight – this could get interesting.
    5. maybe charlie appears to jack at some point as well and that’s what puts jack over the edge. what happened???
    6. i totally want to know what’s up with hurley wishing he hadn’t followed locke.
    7. what have jack, kate, hurley, and the other 3 (2?) had to lie about?
    LOVE this show – cannot….wait….for….next….thursday.”
