LOST: "Special"

Yes, I finally got my computer back and was able to see this. Haven't caught this week's TAR yet, but I was a weak person and got someone to tell me what happened, so I may never get around to watching that one. Lost, though... I may have a little difficulty staying away from spoilers in the form of promo pics, but otherwise, if you try to tell me anything about future episodes of the show, I will plug my ears and yell "LA LA LA LA LA" at you until you go away. Nothing comes between me and my visceral, unsullied Lost experience.

And now, my comments and observations on "Special", in random order: ( Spoilery thoughts under the tag, baby )

All in all, a very fine episode. And whoa! I did not see that ending coming. What now?
