>: 35 THE HUNTING PARTY
episode 35 in the can and it was a scorcher!
shocked to see christain shepherd to start things off, aNOTHER jack flashback? this one turned out to be worth it though, very pertinent as to jack's present-day mindset. he wasn't that stable around ep 5 when he started hallucinating his daddy (if that wasn't an islandghost), doesn't seem like he's in much better headspace 42 days later. how many episodes has he cried this season, feel like it's been at least half. so, michael makes a beeline for walt, the parapsychology hatch maybe? the only way i can see walt actually alive if that astral projection stuff isn't a ghost is to have the station focused on parapsychology, one of the degroots' six areas of study, up and running, electrodes on his head and what not.
how can you not love jack, locke and sawyer on the hike? of course, jack created his own strategic disadvantage by not letting kate come along. dug locke rebutting 'mr clean' by calling sawyer on his name.
nice character beats sandwiched in with the long-term plot advancement: the koreans' arc was elegantly played, charlie and hurley spinning records, the 'desert island scenario' was maybe the only thing that could have kept my mind off what was happening elsewhere, which leads us to_
old pirate claus. this guy was great, the way he launched into that whole 'put your foot on the table in another man's house' bit. looks like a worthy adversary. prelim data indicates we're right not to be as terrified of the others as the tailenders would have it. great how he called everybody by their names, of course they've got their lists. question is (excuse me, the 39th question is) did these others cause the crash? the fact that they know everybody's names and might possibly have access to all the pertinent lifelong images of the survivors stored by the nanotech/security system suggests that to be the case. 'you and me ain't done, zeke,' was prob my favorite line, though i really dug locke's delivery of everything. at first, i thought michael made it through to walt but zeke tells us that he 'won't find us', so he's presumably armed and crazy in the middle of the night, looking for boone and shannon's longlost cousin to perforate. on the rewatch, i caught the name of the person who brought bound&gagged kate out: alex. that's rousseau's 16-yr old. we've been looking for her since the pirates/others made their first appearance stealing walt, there's the confirmation. poor crazy danielle.
i want a poster of that shot of the four of them walking back at dawn.
and the a-word finally gets dropped, army, been waiting for that all this time, though i have to say i always thought it would wind up being an idelogical war between jack and locke based on faith/science and some horrible mishap in the swan station. can't wait to see where all this is headed. next week.
