'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
but I don't buy that he's magic enough to have mixed up a special IncestOff variety of hallucination goop.
I had this reaction, too. The only thing I can come up with is that Locke figured whatever the vision was, it would fall the way Locke needed it to, because that's what The Island would arrange. But now I'm ascribing all kinds of motivation to Locke that I'm not sure I really have evidence for.
A character in Stephen King's book, The Stand. Someone who remembers it better will have to flesh it out. I just remember that he was creepy, and I think bad.

Considering the last line at the end of a chapter about a minion that had disappointed Flagg was "There were worse things than t memfault something pretty damn unpleasant ; there were teeth." I'd have to give a big "Hell, YES!"
On a tangent - at the Alias party when Jack and Sydney are outside and Nadia opens the door did anyone else notice that the song that was being played was "You All, Everybody" or am I hallucinating?
YES!! I heard it too, and came in to see if anyone else noticed. The Abramsverse is contiguous!
Anyway, back to the tv.
Ah! One of the books I put on my "to be read" list and haven't gotten around to. Hm, may have to actually read it.
(I also don't think the actors playing Shannon and Boone were strong enough to make this ep work.)
Yes. This.
Randall Flagg is basically the devil in The Stand (played by Jamey Sheridan in the TV miniseries, which is why I still get a start seeing him in L&O:CI).
Someone over at TWoP said that seeing how Locke is indoctrinating Boone made him think of how Holtz must have raised Connor in Q'ortoth.
Well, there you go. It's funny, I remember the odd detail from the book, but I really couldn't summarize it. I remember he was central to the goings on in the book... people were flocking to him or something. But details like that, I do not remember.
So...I thought the "love" scene between Boone and Shannon was supposed to be racy. Did they cut something out?
YES!! I heard it too, and came in to see if anyone else noticed. The Abramsverse is contiguous!
I dont understand.
I definitely think that Locke wants loyalty and for some reason is seeking individuals with loved ones on the plane as opposed to folks like Hurley who are there by themselves.
He is definitely power tripping.
