TV Wednesday On Thursday: LOST

** SPOILER ALERT **

I've discovered that it's a good thing to watch the 8:00 pop-up videos each week. Questions do get answered!

• From last week, I caught that Charlotte told them to look for the well to find the Orchid Station. The Orchid was supposedly built by Dharma, but the well preceded it. So, how did Charlotte know about the well if she was there in Dharma days, and who dug the well?

• Okay, let's talk about the crappy set design for the Lamp Post station. Ummm, all those valuable formulas for finding the island are written in chalk on an easily erasable blackboard? I'd think they'd be just a little bit more important than that...say stored on a computer at least. Then you got the pendulum. You know, the pendulum that swings back and forth to predict the location of the island that took how much effort and ultimately a genius (Faraday?) to figure out. The one that people have to walk around lest they run into it or vice versa. Hope nobody clumsy gains access to that room.

• If the old lady doesn't believe what Ben says half the time, why are they still in cahoots with him? Why don't they throw him overboard?

• I think that Ben killed Penny. Not that it is ever a good idea to kill someone, but I never really warmed up to her. That leaves the door open for Desmond to return since the island isn't done with him yet.

• Loved that the pilot on the plane to Guam is the helicopter pilot from the ship. Boy, does he look different without the beard and hairy chest hanging out.

• Ben said he didn't know that Locke committed suicide. But in the previews for next week, didn't it look like he was kneeling in front of Locke as he was climbing on the chair to hang himself?

• Who are Sayid's federal agent and the dude in the bomber jacket going to turn out to be? Will they survive the crash? Were they called to be on the island, too, we just haven't seen their stories yet? What about the others on the plane...are they going back to the island, or just those in first class?

• I loved it that Ben showed his callousness in not caring what happens to the other passengers on the plane. He plays a great villain. So nonchalant about it all. I also loved that Hurley bought the remainder of the seats to save as many people as he could.

• Did the plane crash, or were they zapped from the plane to the island? No wreckage, no injuries. Not like the first plane crash that started this whole mess.

• Did Locke really write the suicide note, or did Ben? Is that how it kept following Jack so easily?

• Jack's granddad is going to play into this somehow. He spawned Jack's father who became Locke's leader in the spirit world. Do we really know Jack's destiny? Does he? When Jack was over the casket changing the shoes, I kept expected Locke to open his eyes and say "Hello, Jack." Locke looks awfully good for being dead for so long. And his legs weren't very stiff from rigor mortis.

• Where did Aaron go? Is that why we saw Claire's mother so conveniently in LA? Did Kate dump the baby on her?

• I think the cliffhanger with Jin in Dharma clothes was a red herring. I bet they all just changed clothes since what they've been wearing must be pretty torn and ripe considering they've been tromping around in the jungle for months.

Speak up, Losties, and tell me what you think!
