4.75 I'll miss Eko. He was a fascinating character.


Lisa Coulter...
show's creators said this ep had to do with what the island wanted, and
Yemi and Eko.

"perfect" good (Yemi) vs. as good as you can do (Eko)?

Gio...
4 stars, Drenthe, the Netherlands.


David...
3.6 (+.20 for the meta-jokes)

The Jack parts were good but I don't care about Eko and I need time to
decide whether the monster was silly or cool

EGK...
I'll side with silly.

natch...
mark me down for cool

cloud dreamer...
Yup...I'm just falling off the fence on the side of cool...

jayembee...
How about coolly silly.

Eko

Locke

Sayid

Jack

Juliet

Black cloud

Backgrounders

and last but not least:

Video tape.


GarondoMarondo...
There went the black guy, again.

Why does JJ hate black people?

David...
Eko was black??

Unlike *some* of us, I don't see colors, I see people.

Marie DiGerro...
Amen brother! ;o)

Ken from Chicago...
Colbert nation unite!


jayembee...
Yup. As was Artz, who blowed up real good. And the US marshal.
And Libby. And Ana Lucia. And all the various other redshirts.


Zombie Elvis...
There's an easy test for people like yourself. Go downtown and try to
get a cab. If it's easy you're white.

Stick Waver...
You can thank the gangs for that. Stats aren't racist.


Rick...
Kanye West told me it was true.


Steven L....
Black people such as Shannon, Boone, Libby and Ana-Lucia?

GarondoMarondo...
Yet there's still plenty of white folks left on the island, now there's
only Rose as the single black person.

P.S. "There went the black guy" was a tribute to Cronan who died on
this date back in 1999 but its as true today as it was back when he
wrote it last century.

Anim8rFSK...
However, I had not noticed any striking resemblance between her and
Julie Bowen.

David B...
I didn't notice it wither. Though I've heard from a number of peole who
swear there's a resemblance. I just do not see it.

seapig...
I think she looks a lot like Heather Mills McCartney. The actress also

Anim8rFSK...
Now, that was just mean.

seapig...
She just looks like her; I didn't mean to imply that she's a one-legged
gold-digging harpy.

Anim8rFSK...
but still


The actress also

played Linda McCartney in a TV movie, so if Sir Paul ever crash lands
on the island, we know who the Others can use to convince him to write
their national anthem.

~consul...
The only one I thought she might look like is that cheating girl lead from Grey's Anatomy.


stocksami...
4.6

The most bizarre episode yet. I don't know what to make of it, but it
sure wasn't expected.

Alex W...
3 stars.

Props for the pirate guy. And I heart Elizabeth Mitchell. But otherwise,
still dull.

I'm really starting to hate these hallucinations and such. Kind of a

BTR1701...
They're not hallucinations. They are the smoke creature, taking the form
of people the victim knows.

Ryan Robbins...
I wouldn't be so sure.

BTR1701...
I would.

Ken from Chicago...
It wasn't an illusion that beat up Eko.

writing crutch to stretch things out if you ask me. I can only assume
they're saving everything for Feb and just need to drag things out as long
as possible.


Fred Ellis...
Another 5 Star episode. One more mystery solved. The x-rays are
Ben's. And who's the guy with the eye patch and which station he is
located at? Oh, at least one of the suvivors was paying attention to

Captain Infinity...
He's the owner of the glass eye that the tailies found at the other
Dharma station.

~consul...
Wasn't there a lot of those eyes?


**
Captain Infinity

Fred Ellis...
Yes, I figured that out the moment I saw him. Most likely the glass eye
found in the Arrow bunker might belong to him.

Stick Waver...
Yeah but people with a glass eye usually don;t need a patch.

Anim8rFSK...
They do if they leave the glass eye in the other hatch!


~consul...
If he used to have it in there, since he lost it he's got a slot, and it looks weird.


Fred Ellis...
That is right. A person who has a glass eye would have no need for a
patch. But if that person was missing their glass eye they would have
probable need for patch.

The man seen on the monitor screen in the Pearl bunker was wearing a
patch over one eye. Thus it is plausible that the glass eye found in
the Arrow bunker belongs to him.

Stick Waver...
That's right. I forgot they would have to be in two separate places.
Guess it could be his!


Fred Ellis


Ryan Robbins...
They do if they don't have the eye.



I threw out that question just out of curiosity. I realize that we will

Ken from Chicago...
It's akin to mystery fans who try to solve a whodunit before the show's
detective gives the solution. Some fans tape the show while not watching it,
then play it, and pause it before the solution is revealled and try to work
out all the clues before playing the final part.

not have the answer that question until the writers introduce him in a
future episode.

PuddinTame...
But what makes it a 5 star episode?
