LOST - Another twist it must be Wednesday
Michael comes blundering out of the jungle and proceeds to turn the whole island upside down...
Not one to stray away from shocking moments, last night LOST didn't fail to deliver the latest sucker punch. Alot of people want to say that Michael has been brain-washed by the Others whilst he has been gone but judging by the way he apologised to Ana-Lucia before shooting her suggests he was acting of his own volition. Which makes it seem like he has made a deal with the Others to get his son back. Like he has said in the past he will do anything to get Walt.
In the island's eyes I think Michael is good. As Henry was saying about them coming for Locke. There is some sort of selection process for who gets taken by the Others. And judging from flashbacks of Michael so far he has nothing to feel guilty or been punished for. His son was taken from him originally by his wife. Yes he could have done more to prevent her from taking him, and that is why he is so kamikaze about his approach to get Walt back now. Then in his journey into the jungle he has reached some sort of reconciliation with his own guilt and in the process made a deal with the Others for same return of his son in the act of a revenge killing of Ana-Lucia and the return of Henry.
But what the show really achieved with the shocking twist was pulling you away from the other questions raised in the show. In particular Jack's possible half-sister. There is a good chance it is Claire (Her mother has been mentioned, and Thomas said 'Daddy abandonment issues'). And why did Christian deceide to call Ana-Lucia 'Sarah', which is Jack's wife's name. Sarah left Jack because she was seeing someone else, at a stretch could this someone else have been Jack's father. And at one point Sarah thought she was pregnant and then told Jack no only to leave him later.
The show never really displays a time frame so you don't really know what time has passed between certain events. Christian also said something to the woman in the rain about paying for the mortgage on the house. It could be possible that he paid for someone to move from America to Australia. Set them up with a new life. Is it possible Sara had family in Australia that she is living with and then had a child by Jack's father.
Also an added note to people on the island. DO NOT HAVE SEX. You have sex you could possibly be dead a few minutes later. Shannon and Ana-Lucia have fallen foul of this curse already.
Where is the show going from here? First off judging from the preview for next week there is a possibility one of the two shot women may not be dead just yet. As Kate asks 'Is she dead?' only mentioning one dead person.
Now some words from Damon Lindeloff & Carlton Cuse in TV guide about the last few episodes and Season 3:
***POSSIBLE SPOILERS AHEAD***
Lindeloff and Cuse talk about the next episode '?' being a great chance to bring Eko and Locke back together into the battle of faith that they have been hinting at all season. And this was originally going to be the episode directed by Darren Aronofsky before Rachael Weisz's pregnacy.
They go on to say that we'll see a resolution to the Michael-Walt story. The growth of Malcolm David Kelly (Walt) will be addressed in Season 3. We are going to learn more about Dharma, as well as having Desmond returning to shed more light on what happened to him in the 3 years prior to Locke coming down the hatch. There is going to be more Jack/Kate/Sawyer stuff but the focus won't be on romance. There are bigger fish to fry. The perception that they may have dropped the idea of forming an army because of bigger things, the need will resurface in the finale.
Next year. More Rousseau but not the story of her wrecked research vessel, it'll come at some point but they can't guarentee Season 3. More new characters will be introduced in Season 3, so some fresh flashbacks. You'll probably see fewer flashbacks of our original characters as we more toward cetain inevitabilities. You will learn more about some of the other survivors next year. Also where the new characters come from in Season 3 is going top be part of the fun and anticipation over the summer, and hopefully by the end of the finale you'll be getting a sense of who those characters might be.
