I don't have kids, but come on...how could you? <br />Juliet is very shaken with Kate being around, and it's sad they came back, especially when they didn't have too. Every one was just doing fine.<br />It was nice that some things were explained or reminded, why the hatch and the button, reason for 815 crash, etc. but I'm supre curious about the Others and their story. How did they wind up there? How come what his name doesn't age?<br />Excellent recap and episode.Jenny Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04077659644092707107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-88160027594219153472009-05-02T17:20:00.000-07:002009-05-02T17:20:00.000-07:00My head was totally spinning after this episode. ...My head was totally spinning after this episode.

Mrs. Hawkings actions make sense if you think you have to make sure the past doesn't change... but she believes it's all fate anyways, so she shouldn't have to TRY to make it happen at the expense of making her son miserable. It doesn't make sense - there must be something else that we're not getting. <br /><br />I wrote about it here: http://kaciesmixedmedia.blogspot.com/2009/05/lost-thoughts-is-it-all-determined-or.htmlKaciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06374573594800663980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-6083684103182421722009-05-01T02:37:00.000-07:002009-05-01T02:37:00.000-07:00Another head spinner!

The scenes w/ his mother broke my heart, too, especially the piano and telling him she'd be proud.

I actually mentioned that in my post too. :P <br /><br />As for Eloise going on with her life and knowing and all -- I honestly think she didn't know that sending to the island would result in her shooting him. In fact, sending Kate, Jack, and the others back was the variable that set that chain of events in motion (Dan saw the photo and hopped a sub from Ann Arbor) -- I think it was that new variable she was referring to when she said she didn't know what would happen now. If my theory is correct, she's oblivious, and will have a "memory" of it pop into her head the same way Desmond did, after encountering Dan in the past.<br /><br />And I don't think he'll die either, I think they'll do the magic-healing-temple thing with him.... only in that case, what would it mean for him as a person?? <br /><br />Would love to know your thoughts! :)Sarah Eliza @ devastateboredomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18178682145271558368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-3933898971175831452009-04-30T07:30:00.000-07:002009-04-30T07:30:00.000-07:00Great post! I couldn't believe Daniel really died...Great post! I couldn't believe Daniel really died, and I liked him. It seems like no matter how much he tries to change the future... well, that may have been their present, but it was also his past, too. Charlotte remembered him telling her to leave, so he had tried to change the future in HER past. Wow, this is confusing, lol. I love it. ;-) I've always been fascinated with the concept of time travel and what it could change, etc. <br /><br />I think if I had been Eloise I would have done everything I could to change the future. I would have let him be a normal little boy. Play piano all day long. Eat ice cream. Drink coke. He probably still would have been at the island, but maybe he would have had some fond memories instead of his mother pushing him all his life for THIS. Ugh. If he had to go back to the island, I would have gone back and stopped my younger self. Guess you couldn't really murder your younger self to save your son, though, could you? That would kill both of you. Supposedly. Anyway. Great post! Great episode! <br /><br />I recapped it as well, would love if you could come comment! :-)Lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10852491614855067676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-39884479207017501432009-04-30T06:14:00.000-07:002009-04-30T06:14:00.000-07:00I was SO sad that Daniel died...

And until this episode, I rather liked Eloise's character, but now that's all been turned upside down. <br /><br />But yeah, this time travel stuff is definitely confusing sometimes. And Amy, I too suspected that Charles Widmore was Daniel's father...<br /><br />Anyway, in terms of furthering the story, it was a great episode, but I just hated to see Daniel die.Melissa O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13068354108178290445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-78452970739769542772009-04-30T05:07:00.000-07:002009-04-30T05:07:00.000-07:00And if all of our survivors hung out on the beach ...And if all of our survivors hung out on the beach for 30 years, would they run into themselves and watch their plane crash?

What an awful mother Eloise ...Yes, it was terrible. What an awful mother Eloise is! I too am wondering where Young Daniel is. Is he in the camp with The Others? If so, why wouldn't he remember? I think he's not on the island but where ever people go when they leave there. Maybe he's with his Dad at the moment.<br /><br />The Desmond and Penny moment was precious.Chrisbookaramahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11972547663609480210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-5630517411524201362009-04-30T03:53:00.000-07:002009-04-30T03:53:00.000-07:00No one is ever dead on lost! he will pop up again....No one is ever dead on lost! he will pop up again...everyone who's "died" has. well except for paulo and nicki. <br /><br />something else i was a little unsure of. if it's 1977 and ellie is on the island, where is little daniel? obviously daniel is older than charlotte (but he can't be THAT much older than her) or does that version of daniel not exist? and if he does exist, does he die now that present day daniel has died?<br /><br />i'm so confused.Deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02147790818681999121noreply@blogger.com
