[Dr. Nguyen Van Falk]

The original casting call for the rolls of Jacob and his adversary...

[JASON]
Any ethnicity, late 30s-60s. Former soldier. A leader of men. Smart but more than that – he is wise. Strong and straightforward. The words he says are always listened to and they carry gravitas. GUEST STAR two episodes. May lead to recurrings. Looking for someone very interesting and very special for this role...

[SAMUEL]
Any ethnicity, 40s-60s. A corporate raider looking to take over his next company. Powerful, devious and obtuse. He has a cunning intellect and a strong sense of danger. GUEST STAR two episodes. May lead to recurring. Looking for someone very interesting and very special for this role...

FWIW.

Names have been changed to protect the innocent.

They weren't going to put out a call explicitly announcing the casting of Jacob, were they? Even Weebs could have figured out what that would mean.

You give me too much credit.

So, Sayid is to Jacob as Locke is to Esau?

Really liking this flash-sideways/alternate reality thing. You'd think the stories will have to converge at some point, I just have no idea how they'll pull it off.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the people on the island now approximately four years or so ahead of the people who landed at LAX?  They're clearly at the same time that Locke/Esau's party is at, since Jacob appeared and said he'd died just an hour earlier.

I loved how they made us think that Plane Jack remembered the events on the island at first.  I got all, "If it never happened, he wouldn't remember it!" huffy before they made me feel like a heel by showing he DOESN'T remember.  Neato!  I also liked the bait-and-switch with Plane Locke.  I was sure he'd get up at the end, but he didn't.  HE DIDN'T.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the people on the island now approximately four years or so ahead of the people who landed at LAX?  They're clearly at the same time that Locke/Esau's party is at, since Jacob appeared and said he'd died just an hour earlier.

That doesn't mean they can't converge. Just that, if they do, it would have to be through flash-/jump-forwards and/or TIME TRAVEL. (The later of which would be pretty unrealistic, when you get right down to it.)

I was kind of expecting that twist, too.

Turns out the twist was: THERE WAS NO TWIST.

True, it just means that the LAX Losties will have to fill 4 years until they meet up with the Island Losties.  Or, of course, TIME TRAVEL!

Or maybe they didn't take that flight until 4 YEARS LATER!!!  I mean, Jack's hair is different.  How could he grow his hair out like that if it was supposed to be short when he went to Australia?  Never mind, TIME TRAVEL is awesome and they should just do more of that.

So then they decided to cut costs and just have Terry O'Quinn play two characters?

[Dr. Nguyen Van Falk]

Locke, Sayid, Claire and Christian: Army of the Undead.

Hopefully the DARKNESS claims Mac now, too.

"What's up, bitches?"

[Chuck to Chuck]

Locke, Sayid, Claire and Christian: Army of the Undead.

Is Claire dead?  She just wandered off and ended up with Christian in the Cabin, right?

[Slaky]

Locke, Sayid, Claire and Christian: Army of the Undead.

Is Claire dead?  She just wandered off and ended up with Christian in the Cabin, right?

She must have died and found the Others who tried to save her, thought they did, gave her "the test" which she failed, and then she possibly escaped where THE DARKNESS enveloped her heart and turned her into a killing machine.

[JD]

Locke, Sayid, Claire and Christian: Army of the Undead.

Would it kill her to wash off, though?

She's gotta stay concealed so she can easily pick off snarky douches like Mac.

"What is this, a press conference?"

He was annoyingly distracting.  I know he was playing "ticked off", but that was a little weird.  I'm glad he's dead.
