This week's "Lost"

[rj_anderson]

Just finished watching this week's episode.

Am in a state of complete and utter emotional devastation. Tears, heaving sobs, the works.

And it's not because of the shock of Boone's death, either. I already knew that he would die, not only because it would have been ridiculous for him to live after he got so munched up in that plane last week, but because I accidentally read an LJ comment today that implied it.

But GAH, the writers are evil. They just wrung that whole thing out for every last drop of emotion and I totally got suckered in.

Just... Boone... and Jack... and the baby... and...

*sobs more*

Dear Avenging!Jack: Please do not kill my poor woobie Locke. He didn't mean it, honest.

Have headache. Must go to bed now.

I thought the episode was really well done. Considering the ghosts that have appeared on the island and the flashback sequences, Ian Somerhalder might not be completely out of work. I was impressed with how the writers forced the characters to come together in a crises. When Kate asked Sawyer for alcohol, her tone of voice told him this is serious, and Sawyer opened up his stock without asking anything in return. Jin was forced to use Sun as a translator in order to communicate about Claire's labor. He didn't look happy being put into that position, but he saw the greater good and swallowed his pride. With regards to Jack's marriage, to quote Hurley, "Didn't see that one coming." I hope we learn what happened to him and his wife in the future. So many questions, so few answers. It's like watching Babylon 5. :)
