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.
You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture.

(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.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
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.

Sadly, I think this is true. I wanted to like this ep better than I did, but Boone in particular didn't sell it at all. Even if I did think the kiss was kind of hot. Um.
I didn't notice "You All, Everybody" but that's so cool! I'll have to go back and listen for it now. Continuity is so much fun.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.
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.
Maybe because those with someone on the island have the other to lose and can be "broken" and swayed to Locke's psycho-ness. Those on the island by themselves don't really have any living ties to the outside world.
