Hopefully this episode helps theLOSTmap.

We get some clues about the compass, perhaps a relative location of the swan?
John's initiative and his story about Michaelangelo (sp?) - priceless.

"Lemme check my hip...nope! No Boone!"

The last flashback always weirds me out. Boone, pretty much, gets sexually assaulted...by a 20 yr. old.

All in all, good episode. Nothing big gets solved but a few easter eggs sticking out here and there.

Yeah, the whole Boone-Shannon s-x thing weirds me out. I know there is no "blood" relation, but they are always referring to themselves as brother and sister. So, I'm like...uh, no. That's just not right.

[Mrs.locke]

OK, so another thought, someone else brought it up somewhere I think. I have been looking at so much stuff its hard to say. Anyway... Does John have the sickness? Did he get it when he had his "encounter" with the island? Or does this just go along with the same theory that John was really the nemesis all along?

I am 100% convinced that John does have the "sickness." I believe his encounter with the monster changed him and made him basically a disciple of the island. Starting with hitting Sayid over the head, continuing with hitting Boone over the head...Locke is not normal by any standards. Everything he says and does from the moment he faces the smoke monster is "for the island" and I don't think it's just because he was healed of his paralysis.

Rose was healed of her cancer and you don't see her walking around hitting people over the head and doing nothing to help the fellow survivors.

If Locke doesn't have the sickness at this point, then I don't know what to say about him other than I am so glad I'm not stranded on an island with him.

You don't just start discussion threads whenever you want. We are not this far on the schedule yet. Let's stay in line children.

[Lorite]

Agreed. Part of the discipline of the rewatch is that you don't start until it's on the schedule.

i was just coming to post what the above two said!
i know we're all excited, but if we keep going like this, we will get way too far ahead of ourselves...sunday night is one thing...but this is too early.
if you re watch ahead of schedule, just write your thoughts down, and then post them when its time... im not trying to be a nag...haha sorry.

This is the second Hearts & Minds thread that's been made too early. I never knew how popular this episode was

M'bad ...I was looking at the dates of creation for other episodes and I felt there had been too long a gap between threads.

Really. Sorry. I completely spaced the schedule.
