Show notes for this edition of the podcast:
- Part 3 of 3, Kris White interview by Congested from Audibly Lost
- PART 2 of the Season 4 Finale - Notes
- Flashforward:
- Starts where Season 3 ends
- Jeremy Bentham - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremy_Bentham - man whose name was in the newspaper, the man in the coffin
- Kate: "You believed him, him of all people"
- Jack: "He said that was the only way I could keep you safe, you and Aaron."
- Kate: "Don't you say his name!"
- Kate: 3 years since they've been home
- Kate: "How dare you ask me to go back!"
- Present:
- Jack and Sawyer at Orchid
- Locke is trying to find way into Orchid?
- Desmond says C4 on the freighter would be nearly impossible to defuse without blowing it up
- The Others, Kate, and Sayid free Ben
- Keamy is killed by Richard Alpert (or so it seems), but the freighter doesn't blow up - we are left to wonder if it wasn't supposed to have been a metronome monitoring his pulse like the prop seemed to hint
- Flashforward:
- Hurley has visitors - Walt and his grandma
- Walt says that Jeremy Bentham came to see him
- Walt to Hurley: "I don't understand why you're all lying."
- Hurley: "We're lying because it's the only way to protect everyone that didn't come back."
- Walt: "Like my dad?"
- Hurley: "Like your dad, yeah."
- Present:
- Locke to Jack: "I would like you to stay... You're not supposed to go home."
- Locke: [After going home,] "You're going to have to lie about everything... it's the only way to protect it" [the Island]
- Locke: "It's not an island. It's a place where miracles happen."
- Ben to Jack: "I'd want to be on that boat within the hour."
- Locke: "Lie to them, Jack... they'll believe you."
- Michael is going to try to freeze the battery attached to the C4
- Michael is happy to hear that Sun is pregnant
- Miles: "I'm surprised you want to leave?"
- "After all the time you've spent trying to get back here"
- "Is this the magic box?" "No, John, it's not."
- The Orchid - Station 6 of 6
- Dr. Edgar Halliwax: "conduct unique experiments in both space and time"
- vault "adjacent to negatively charged exotic matter"
- "avoid leaving inorganic materials inside chamber"
- "metallic objects must never be placed within the vault"
- Ben puts a bunch of metal stuff in chamber
- Someone called up the elevator, Ben asked Locke for his gun
- Keamy was wearing body armor, hence Richard Alpert didn't actually kill him
- Ben stabs Keamy in the neck, kills him, triggers the remote to set off the C4
- Ben didn't care about the people on the boat, cared more about getting revenge for his daughter
- Charlotte decides to stay "For now, anyway"
- Charlotte says she wants to find the place where she was born - on the island. This is more evidence that she worked for the DHARMA Initiative
- Sawyer whispers something to Kate - to find Cassidy Phillips? Something about Clementine?
- He jumps from the helicopter to lighten the load because of a fuel leak, and he swims back to the island
- PART 3
- Flashforward:
- Sayid kills someone outside of Santa Rosa - asked the man for the time, 8:15
- Sayid visits Hurley - "This isn't a visit. I want you to come with me."
- "Bentham's dead. Two days ago. They said it was suicide... We're being watched. I just killed a man who's been perched outside this facility for the past week."
- Not going back, are we?
- No, just somewhere safe?
- Okay then.
- Hurley: "Checkmate, Mr. Eko."
- Present:
- Locke tries to save Keamy's life, fails
- "Wherever you go, he'll find you." "Not if I find him first."
- Red light comes on on freighter
- Michael's battery freezing plan worked, but only 5 mins left of ice in the tank
- Christian Shephard appeared to Michael, Michael didn't know who he was, Christian told Michael "You can go now" and the freighter blew up -- with Michael and (presumably) Jin still on board
- Frank refused to turn the helicopter around -- is Frank one of the two people that Sun blames for her husband's death?
- Flashforward:
- Sun sees Charles Widmore exiting a building
- Sun: "You and I have common interests"
- We're not the only ones who left the island
- "Miss Kwon, why would you want to help me?"
- Present:
- Sawyer swims back shirtless, finds Juliet drinking rum on the beach
- Sawyer looks back and sees the smoke from the boat
- Ben: "I'm going somewhere cold" - puts on Halliwax jacket
- Ben: "The island wants me to suffer the consequences"
- Ben: "Whoever moves the island can never come back"
- John is now the leader of The Others
- Ben walks down a tunnel into an icy cold cave
- Looks up, says "I hope you're happy now, Jacob"
- Prys frozen wheel loose, turns it
- This must be the "frozen donkey wheel"
- Another purple sky, then the island disappears and there's nowhere to land, the helicopter takes a really nasty crash and flips upside-down frontways - how in the world could anyone survive that? Especially the baby! But everyone does
- Flashforward:
- Claire to Kate in a dream: "Don't bring him back, Kate. Don't you dare bring him back" [Aaron]
- Kate to Aaron: "I'm sorry."
- Kylene theorizes that Kate apologized to Aaron because she's going back
- Present:
- On a raft, Hurley tells everyone that Locke moved the island
- Frank Lapidus sees a boat
- Rather than celebrating, Jack looks serious and tells everyone that they're going to have to lie
- Jack: "Just let me do the talking"
- Searcher is the name of the ship
- One of the guys from the Listening Station is on board!
- Desmond sees Penny!
- Des: "How did you find me?"
- Pen: "Your phone call. I have a tracking station."
- Des: "I love you Penny, and I'll never leave you again."
- Jack immediately tells Penny that he needs to talk to her
- They're going to Mumbata, "because it's the only way to keep them safe" -Sayid
- Jack: "Don't let him find you, Desmond. And I'll see you in another life, brother."
- Flashforward:
- Jack going to Hoffs/Drawlar Funeral Home to see Jeremy Bentham's casket - this time it's at night, Jack breaks in
- Ben shows up, asks: "Did he tell you that I was off the island?"
- Jack: "Yes, he did."
- Ben: "When did you speak to him?"
- Jack: "About a month ago."
- Ben: "And Kate?"
- Jack: "Yeah, yeah he came to see her too. He told me that after I left the island, some very bad things happened and he told me that it was my fault for leaving and he said that I had to come back."
- Ben: "I'm here to tell you that the island won't let you come alone. All of you have to go back."
- Jack: "Sun blames me for..."
- Ben: "This is the way it has to be, Jack. It's the only way."
- Jack: "How?"
- Ben: "I have a few ideas."
- Ben: "Jack, I said all of you. We're going to have to bring him, too."
- John Locke is Jeremy Bentham! Why does he have a different name?
- Kylene thinks because he couldn't be recognized because he's not one of the Oceanic Six
- How did he get back from the island?
