Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jon, are you behind in the show, too? It's a line from a couple of weeks ago.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

No, I'm caught up in the show. I guess I just forgot the line.

So I guess that's a sign that it's not overly spoilery, anyway....

(It was from Hurley's dream. )

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Someone suggested "Lost 4 8 15 16 23 42 2" in the other thread, and I like that best. "Tied to a tree in a jungle of mystery" would also get my vote. "Cluckety-cluck-cluck" ranks third.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I like the numbers as thread title.

Also, possibly using the 2nd episode title "Adrift" to describe the storyline/writers' approach....

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm not crazy about having numbers in the thread title that aren't the thread number.

I vote Cluckity-cluck or Jungle of Mystery

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Although I suggested the numbers (which could work on a later thread just as well), I like "Cluckity-cluck-cluck" best.

Who, Me?

I like "Have a Cluckity-cluck-cluck day" as well

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

This came up in the quotes at the top of the page:

Book: Where's the doctor? Not back yet? Zoe: We don't make him hurry for the little stuff. He'll be along. Jayne: 'Dear Diary, Today I was pompous and my sister was crazy.' 'Today, we were kidnapped by hill folk never to be seen again. It was the best day ever.' Jayne: Amazing we kept him this long.

'Safe'

I'm guessing those were meant to be two separate quotes.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That looks like more (and less) than two quotes. The first is better as

Book: Where's the doctor? Not back yet?
Zoe: (beat) We don't make him hurry for the little stuff. He'll be along.
Book: He could hurry... a little.

Jayne: "Dear Diary, Today I was pompous and my sister was crazy." "Today, we were kidnapped by hill folk never to be seen again. It was the best day ever."

There's a "Now we're talking" missing before the "Amazing we kept him this long." and the neither of them really add anything anyway.
