First and foremost, I've decided to keep this photo up until I get sick of my MSCL joke. Which may be never.
This was oh-so-much-better than last week's episode. Let's get straight to the point:
Everyone's got a number! Except Kate. WHY DOESN'T KATE HAVE A NUMBER? To recount:
4-Locke, 8-Reyes, 15-Ford, 16-Jarrah, 23-Shephard, 42-Kwon
Locke is dead and gets crossed out -- will they go in order? Is Hurley next?
Why are they candidates? Does the island need protecting?
We also have a kid running through the forest that Sawyer and Fake Locke can see, but Richard can't. Why can't Richard see him? Is the kid young Jacob?
Is Sawyer going to take up with Smokey? Is this really bad? Do good and evil even exist anymore?
Remember when people had constants and Faraday's constant was Desmond? Sigh.
I did like the parts with Ben, though I think he's more of a math or English teacher. Not History. And I enjoyed his eulogy. More Ben!
I totally didn't get the Jacob's Ladder reference until now.
Also, Allegory of the Cave. I remember high school English after all!
