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

What! When! Where?!

The very beginning of the episode when they went back to the scene with the rope coming out of the ground where the well was.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I was yelling, "YOU BETTER FUCKING HAVE FOUR TOES!" But they didn't show the other side.

Why is it when I see new characters introduced on LOST now (as opposed to a year ago or, say, HEROES), I now say "Bring em on!", instead of feeling a sense of dread? Ditto for wacky time-shifts.

Ha, seriously.

Man, this show is nuts. The Lostaways are TOTALLY going to become the Dharma Initiative. Next thing you know, we're going to find out Mr. Friendly is actually an aged Sawyer.

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

This show is so hard to keep up with via board posts and occasional viewing of bits of last week's reruns. I mean--are they there, or aren't they? Who knows/does what?

As much as I enjoy Cindy's writing, TWOP "synopses" are all tl;dr for me, especially if I haven't seen the source material, so I remain peripherally involved and confused. It's just on against everything else for me on Wednesdays.

What is even happening?

There's a recaplet and a recap. The recaplet is much shorter and goes up the day after the episode. Once the recap is published, the recap is hidden, but there's a link that uncovers it at the top of the page.

Sorry to draw you out in defense of your employers--I didn't mean to rag on them. There are definite business reasons to have recaps as long as TWOP does, but my patience isn't large. I'll give the recaps a look.

Wait--is it your birthday today? Happy natal anniversary, if it is!

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

Was Horace the guy who played Eugene Toombs?

I could not think positively about that character in any way because I am STILL creeped out by Toombs.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

I didn't watch X-Files, but i just imdb'd him and yes it is, le nub. he'll always be Percy from The Green Mile for me.

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

man. one of these days, you should watch the Toombs episodes. I believe there are 2 and they live with you.

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

so, are we likely going to meet young Ben? do any of the castaways know he gassed Dharma?

They need to decamp before that happens.

Oh ita, I wasn't defending TWoP. I was just pointing out the recaplets exist, in case you want a shorter way to keep up with Lost. I'm sorry my post came across otherwise. And you didn't draw me out. I'd just mailed out the recaplet for this episode and decided to pop in here and read the reaction to the episode before I went to bed.

And yes, it was my birthday yesterday. Thank you.

This is in the front of my mind too, le nubian. And I can't figure out how they're going to fix things -- or if they already fixed them by saving Amy's life.
