Alex was raised by boars!

No. He was obviously raised by OMGWTFPOLARBEAR and the invisimechasaurs, silly.

It's up.

And then she loses her shit but good. I thought Snicker Bitch could lose the shit, but man, I hadn't seen anything yet. Emilie de Ravin just goes to town with the shrieking and she starts slapfighting at poor Charlie and gasping and--guess what? There really is blood on her hands OH NOES.

I don't know why, but I find "OH NOES" to be the cutest thing ever.

"There's always some plan, some responsibility, somewhere we have to be!" whines Thomas. Jesus, you numbfuck, it's called adulthood. The guy is late-twenties at the least. Sack up and get a hold of yourself, man! (Wait. I think that came out wrong.)

I was laughing at the well deserved rant, but then there were the dick jokes, so more.

"Are you sure you want to know?" God, when people say that on TV shows, because half the time, characters are like, "You know? I guess I really don't." Apparently on Veronica Mars last night, Veronica had a chance to find out who her real father is (or is not), but she tore up the results rather than read them. WHAT. EVER. Claire is at least sensible enough to be like, "Look, I didn't come all the way down here and pay you $200 just to not know things."

Hee hee hee hee.

"THERE CANNOT BE ANOTHER!" shouts the psychic, like, chill out, Highlander.

Ha ha ha ha ha.

He is also rocking a pair of leopard-print sunglasses with orange lenses (thank God for the pimp smugglers).

Oh, the girl is on tonight.

I love the countrifying of the names.

Hey Jessica, if'n you still want it, I can send you a TiVo tape... I didn't delete it, and owe tape karma from dcp giving me "Solitary" last week.

Lilty - not sure what you decided, but my supr downloads frequently start out saying 37 hours and are down to 10 within 1 hour.

I wonder what sort of insane and cruely evil cliff-hanger Lost is going to leave us on over the break?

I liked how Claire had three chances (pens) to sign away her rights to her baby before she decided to keep it, parallelling Charlie's asking for his drugs back three times.

Everything else I was gonna say, someone else got in long before I got to the end of the thread.

FIRE BAAAAD! ETHAN WORRRRSE!

Bwah!!!

All I saw of Locke in Claire's dream was the black eye, so I assumed that both were black, and I yelled "Dark Willow!"

Did anyone else laugh at Snicker Bitch's delivery of "I'm not going to the rape caves!"? Because I laughed my ass off.

I have 2 theories on the psychic:

(1) He knew the plane would crash but that Claire would survive, which would mean she'd *have* to raise the baby.

(2) He knew the plane would crash, but didn't know that there would be survivors -- he's a psychic, but he's not Mentok (oooOOOooo!) -- and sent Claire on it in an effort to *kill* the baby.

Did Hurley (Hugo -- hee!) actually say who the passenger not on the manifest was? We're all assuming it's Ethan, and it very well may be, but did Hurley say it was Ethan?

In flashbacks that we've seen so far (i.e., not counting people like Boone and Snicker Bitch), we didn't see Claire on the plane, though I think it's a safe bet that she was, b/c of the whole psychic-told-her-to thing. And we also didn't see Locke on the plane. Yes, I know his wheelchair was amongst the wreckage, but that doesn't necessarily mean that he was on the plane. He could have already been there, maybe via boat or something. He may have forged ahead with his walkabout/survival plan despite the wheelchair.

Sure, Occam indicates that Ethan is the most likely candidate for OMGWTFNotOnPlane!, but we don't actually *know* that yet.

signed,
was CONVINCED that Lorne played a part in the Fred-ish badness of S5....until I was proved wrong (IOW, I have many crackheaded theories -- sign up for my mailing list and you can receive a new one via e-mail every day!)

Heh. From cleolinda's recap:

Babymama's like, "Nightmare?" And Jack's like, "Well, you dug your fingernails a quarter inch into your palms, and Charlie just barely stopped you from sleepwalking into the fire, and you woke up EVERYONE ON THE ISLAND, so YEAH, I think it was pretty bad." And somewhere, far over the mountain, a polar bear rolls over and grumbles itself back to sleep.

Meanwhile, the Old Navy commercials with the stupid faux-Christmas carols and their horrible cramped, rhythmless lyrics are driving me batshit. Crimes may possibly be committed because of these commercials.

No shit, man! Me, too!

"THERE CANNOT BE ANOTHER!" shouts the psychic, like, chill out, Highlander.

Maybe next episode Sawyer will have a fedora with a biiiiiig curved feather.
