I still want to know where Sun's baby is. Who on earth could she have left her with?

With her (Sun's) mother.

Sun's relationship with her father so overshadowed her mother, I forgot she existed.

Saw the finale at the weekend. Kept me quite engaged for the whole double episode, which is always a good thing. I was so ready for Miles's 'we caused it' theory to be right, but with Juliet setting off the bomb, I'm not sure anymore. A complete reset would be dull (The Girl and I have been predicting one all season), but Abrams could make it work. If the plane doesn't crash and they *still* all end up back on the island, I'll be delighted.

That could be satisfying, depending on how its done. It would also be a nice parallel to how Desmond could only postpone Charlie's death, not prevent it.

Indeed. They've really being pushing the 'you can't change anything' line. It would be interesting to see them take that further.

It would be cool to have the various dead people come back and die again. Danielle and Alex, Charlie, etc.

I almost think that has to happen, somehow. The island is a character unto itself.

I think this has been my favorite season of Lost, which doesn't seem right, and yet...

No, I'm with you, actually -- especially because we got away from so much focus on Jack and Kate. Right there, that improved it for me.

Me too. This was a very good season. I think getting actual answers to questions also helped make it better.

So glad I didn't zap the season finale. OK, here are some rewatch observations.

• love how blonde says towards the end, when seeing Dharma security rushing towards site, and needing to help Jack "live together, die alone", very foreshadowing.

• Man in Black, nemisis for Jacob (did we ever catch his name? I'm bad with names). The *whole thing* is about those two. Jacob is trying to keep order and balance on the island. He is trying to find people to do that through time. He sends those folks back in time/thru time to do just that. This is why some of the Guam flight goes back and some stay. MIB is trying to ___ not sure, but loophole to kill Jacob. I'm guessing he can't directly kill him. I'm guessing Jacob, somewhere in time, learns two will enter the room to kill him, hence the always "only the one he calls can enter". I'm guessing he knows that's Ben, which is why he never gave audience to Ben. Clearly MIB takes the spirit of Locke. The bomb not initially going off, it was timed with the edits, the jumps back & forth. Jacob didn't need that to go off just yet. But once he was killed/burned, he needed that reset that he set into motion, and Boom! So? Maybe that helps make it so Jacob isn't dead. I dunno. That whole time/space continuum really depends on what the writers want it to be. Logic... Meet open window, right?

• At first I thought the end splash screen being opposite contrasts than normal was because of the flash of the bomb. BUT! What if it shows who has control of the island. I couldn't help but notice that in the beginning, Jacob was wearing white, and MIB was, well, wearing black. So? Does the field show who is in opposition, and word show who is in control? Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but I was like "Ya!" the second I saw it.

Clearly, the show is better watched when awake, and not dragging ass through an 80 hour work week.
