Haines His Way

'LOST' SPOILAGE!  BEWARE!Well, to be accurate, Hurley said that Charlie said Jack is not supposed to "raise him."   Even though Hurley had asked Jack if he was living with Kate and Aaron -- and that could be Hurley trying to understand the message he has to relay to Jack --, Charlie's message -- which Hurley had written down -- did not specifically state/necessarily mean that "him" was "Aaron", IMO.   I think it "might" be one of those red herrings.  There are any number of meanings of "raise him" -- dig him up/disinter him, promote him, get him on the phone, etc.  I know that's a "yitbit" of a stretch, but I take nothing for granted with this show.  Sometimes, I know for a fact, the writers hint at something to get the viewers to believe something will happen.  And then it happens. It may be that "him" is Aaron.  

I think it interesting to point out here that last night, when Kate was forced to account for her activities (a very bad move on Jack's part, I thought), she said she was doing something for "him."  I wonder how many other people thought "him" was Ben?  Of course, she clarified in her next comment that it was Sawyer...but for a moment, and because she seemed so uncomfortable about it, I feared she was working for Ben.

As for your earlier question about a chronology for the flash-forwards:  During the trial, Jack was seemingly straight (off the pills and liquor) and productive once again.  We know that Kate invited him to visit and that Jack had not yet been there to see Aaron.  (Also interesting last night was his comment to Kate about "HER" not being a blood relation to Aaron.  Aaron, of course, is Jack's nephew, but we haven't seen anything about Jack learning Claire is/was his half-sister).  And the scene at the airport has Jack in very bad shape AGAIN and declaring that they all must go back.

That said, and if you force me to make a guess, I'm almost certain the airport scene belongs at the end of the chronology, thus far, because that's the first time we've seen Jack believing he ought to go back to the island.  And if he has walked out on Kate and Aaron, it would also fit that she would have been reluctant to meet him and that he has descended, again, into addictive behaviors.

Another SPOILAGE Ends


I sure hope JMK didn't miss any of those code-outs!  

I am just glad I gave up on LOST the first year.

I've always preferred being called a "Bimbette," myself.    

You told me you preferred B--ch.

DR GEORGE.....Lily vibes.....don't mention The Huckabees.

I got my "best of" Season One and Two DVD's of CHECKMATE, so I think I will spend the evening watching Mr Doug McClure on my TeeVee.

AND I hope someone takes a camera to the NYC HHW gathering this evening, so that we can enjoy it by proxy.

DR JOSE - it is indeed the Variety Arts Building.  I only watched about 45 minutes of the show, and I assumed it took place in NYC....now I know better.

DR ELMORE's assessment of the talent involved is correct.

Listening to my reissue of Subways Are For Sleeping.  What a great score and what a great-sounding album, most of which is due to the superb producing of Goddard Lieberson.  If anyone hasn't gotten this, I have copies I can sell.

Who was in the cast?

How about one in your underoos?

Who are you? Michael Jackson?

Your loss.

I don't believe that is necessarily correct.

I don't believe that is necessarily correct.

I believe that folks can make their choices.  But, given that I've seen every episode as aired, it is a major loss for anyone who loves great storytelling and is willing to invest some time into letting the story get told.

There are four more guaranteed seasons during which "Lost" will complete its arc.  It's unprecedented for any media, including television.

I thought I was going mad.

Could someone please pass to me a glass of whatever it was the BK was drinking?

I guess we will just agree to disagree.

You've seen season 1.  I've season all the first three seasons plus all the episdoes in season 4 to date.

You've nothing to disagree with me about except that you didn't much care for season 1...

If it didn't grab you, I can't expect you to agree with me.  But then, you don't have the full picture of what has transpired since you stopped watching.  

Given what I know of BK's likes/dislikes, I agree with DRMattH that his not having watched "Lost" is his loss.  

Where did I lose you?

I asked you a question.

No one said you owed me anything, I just ask you what you meant.

Okay, then I will ask him.  I didn't realize we were speaking in code on this site.
