re: LOST Season Finale (5-13)- The Incident

I don't blame Kate for not wanting the plane to land so she can avoid jail. Just don't give Jack that "but I'll never fall in love with you then" look.

it looked very much like Locke.

apparently the island cured his baldness

But I do know that Sawyer has fricked things up as leader. That "I don't react, I think" hasn't worked out too well. He handled the Sayid problem poorly, the Ben problem poorly, and now all this poorly. People will point things were fine before Jack, arrived, but things weren't exactly surprise-free when Jack wasn't running the show

---

Sawyer himself hasn't really screwed up yet. Everything bad that has happened has been because others refused or were unable to follow his instructions. If Sayid had knocked Sawyer out like he told him to, then everything would probably be alright. If Jack did the surgery, then he wouldn't have had to have gone into the jungle to risk everything. If Miles had erased the tape like he was told, then Phil wouldn't have found the tape and had to knock him out. If Kate, Jack, and Faraday followed Sawyer's instruction, then they would have had time to gather their things and get out of there.

Everything that has happened is hardly Sawyer's fault. Its just Jack would make up stupid plans and they would backfire tremendously, which is obviously going to happen again. If everyone listened to Sawyer, everything would be alright right now. Sawyer's been getting the raw deal and his subordinates, not him, have been fricking up.

Agreed. Something rare in LOST, I just think it was bad writing for Kate in that episode.

You keep forgetting that the Island brought Jin and Sun back together. If the plane lands, there is a good chance she leaves him at some point. Their relationship was pretty messed up but the time on the Island rekindled their love.

I just don't buy your theory of Jin since he told Locke to make sure Sun NEVER came back to the Island. I don't see him killing his child and going back to a loveless relationship. I also don't see him buying some cockamamie theory that blowing up the Island and killing everyone will make things peachy keen.

Agreed.... No way Kate, Sawyer, Juliette, or Jin allow this to happen.

They all are better off now than they were pre crash.

I tried to steer things toward Locke/Ben/Richard/Jacob.

I come back and everything's now squarely "Jack/Kate" or "Sun/Jin".

So the final season will have nothing to do with the island???

If the bomb goes off the plane never crashes and they dont remember anything

I don't think that the bomb will stop the Incident at all. I think it IS the Incident, or it directly causes it. And I don't think it will exactly be an atomic reaction. I think the electromagnetism will do at least something to the effects of the bomb to where it wouldn't kill everyone on the Island, just be very devastating. The timeline is still the same as a result.

By the way guys, Michael Emerson said that this is the single greatest episode of LOST ever (better than "Through the Looking Glass") and that it has 2 WTF moments on par with the flashforward reveal from TTLG (I'm guessing its one WFT moment from each time period). Its going to be awesome, and I really hope its as good as Emerson says it is.
