Lost from spoilerfix:
The "Orientation" film's jarring jump cuts are actually what [Damon] Lindelof calls "missing pieces" that resulted when former hatch hermit Desmond spliced the broken movie back together after watching it too many times. Those missing pieces will become "very important plot points down the road." Lindelof confirms that Walt said, "Push the button. Don't push the button. Bad." Cuse admitted that Shannon's jungle encounter with Walt was a dream. Says Lindelot: "I think the audience is very compelled to figure out exactly where Desmond was running to and, once he gets there, what is he going to do. We told you that he was in a [ship] wreck, but I think there are a lot of questions about how exactly he came to be here. That's certainly a story on the horizon." "It's important to note," Lindelof says, "that we've never said when the plane crashed. I think the assumption is that it happened in 2004 when the show premiered, but we've never said that." Was Mr. Rutherford [from Jack's flashback in episode 2.01] Shannon's dad? Her ex-husband? Expect to find out in an episode airing during November sweeps. "The Helen we meet in flashbacks is not the same Helen that Locke was speaking to on the phone," Lindelof clarifies, sort of. Lindelof says, "What happened to the 'tailies' that so drastically whittled their numbers is a very compelling mystery that drives us through the first third of the season." A major character dies in an episode before the holidays. Expect a reunion between Rose and husband Bernard.
"The Helen we meet in flashbacks is not the same Helen that Locke was speaking to on the phone,"
Ah. This makes more sense.
Possible Lost spoileryness. Can't rememberise if I've seen it in here before, but you'll all just have to put up with it twice, I guess.

I remember hearing rumors about it back before the season started, but no specifics on who it was going to be.
Gotta think Shannon, or a random redshirt. I can't imagine Kate is going, and I doubt Claire or Sun. At any rate, bring it on.
The murderer we know?
Possible: Locke, Jin, Sawyer, Charlie
Unlikely: Jack, Michael, Sayid, Hurley
Of course, the killer could be a woman. And either the victim or killer could be new cast.
I'm feeling rather bloodthirsty though because my first thought was that it was about time they started killing each other off.
As someone who missed a big chunk of last season, tell me please, is Claire that important to the story?
It seems to me her death would be nice and painful to Charlie, and extra tragic because of the baby (and the baby's dependence on her has just been hinted at with Charlie asking for the peanut butter for the breast feeding mother).
Yeah, I don't think they'd be brave enough to have Jack kill anyone.
Maximum HSQ would be Claire or Charlie doing the killing, I think. Or maybe Shannon.
She was fairly important last season. She was kidnapped. Her baby was stolen. Claire also was quite important to Charlie's storylines.
Maximum HSQ would be Claire or Charlie doing the killing, I think. Or maybe Shannon.
Charlie would make some sense because of him killing Ethan. A certain logic in that.
eta: He certainly would kill to protect the baby.
