I really liked how they used the Nigerian plane to help us keep track of where Locke was in island time. Boone’s alive, oh wait… Boone’s dead, Boone’s alive! Similarly, using the hatch to keep the timeline visible with Sawyer and crew: the hatch is blown up! oh wait, that hatch is back.

Concrete visuals like that are pretty clever when you’re going into a time-jumping story. I was impressed.

As far as the Oceanic Six… they’re not united anymore. We’ve got TeamSun, TeamBen, and (eventually?) TeamDesmond. I think I’d stick with Desmond…

Trust Ben? Perhaps only in the fact he might not be the worst of the bad guys. He is still pursuing his own end game which may or may not be beneficial to our guys. If body counts are any indication I don’t see trusting him ending very well for anyone in the long term.

Thank you Hilsto! So now with that answered, should we not be trusting him?

Last season Ben turned the wheel under the island in order to save the island by “moving” it but in doing so he was left behind (or kicked out by the island) and ended coming out in the desert (my memory is getting fuzzy here) where he fights off some guys and manages to walk back to civilization. Presumably he flies to the States eventually and starts making contact with people because he can’t get back on his own.

Darn, I missed the live blog. lol As for the ep, I got lost too. So much happened and Sun is surely evil. I bet she set Kate up. As for Hurley, he’s great. Love Hurley. As for the woman at the end, I bet she’s Faraday’s mom 2. lol I thought she was until Ben showed up instead of Desmond. lol I guess I flash forwarded. lol
