I can't believe they killed Karen I thought for sure she was going to start moving again or something, but she didn't. It should get alot more interesting now. I wonder what this pheonix storyline is leading to.

goLUCKY

It suprised the hell out of me.

Joe doe is the ! WTF...... Now there is religious overtones. It sure is getting interesting.

I wasn't really shocked, nor did It make me "feel" anything. My reaction was simply "huh, they killed off Karen. Easy way to get rid of her I guess, since she hasn't been seen on the show in almost 2 months".

Rogue588

Yeah...makes me wonder who else is next...

MrX

I got in late so I only caught the last half of this. I can't believe they killed her either. These episodes that deal with his past are alot better then the filler episodes.

Who was the other girl that they put on the helicopter?

Blaster1

That is because they are playing these episodes out of order. This episode was probably supposed to have been shown before the ones without her in them. The other lady that was put on a helicopter was the one that called out to him on the boat that time.

Rogue588

waitaminnit...FOX is showing eps out of order...nahhhhh...they wouldn't do something like that..

..right?

MrX

That's who I was thinking it was but couldn't remember what she looked like exactaly. Did they have any info about who she was or why they wanted her?

Jeraden

Wow, that was a great episode. Finally another one that moves the plot along. Seems half the episodes are 'filler' ones, which aren't bad, but don't really do much. The other half deal with the overall plot.

I know a lot of people found Karen annoying, but I liked her. Kind of sad to see her go.

Patman

I thought they had dragged Karen with them up into the helicopter, so I was really confused when her body was found by Doe and Digger (who's got some secrets or two as well...)

dgmayor

looking at the list on TVTome.com, yes they played them out of order, but this one was still after all the episodes without Karen that we saw previous.

09. 1-9 10-02-108 06-Dec-2002 Manifest Destiny
10. 1-10 10-02-109 13-Dec-2002 The Mourner

15. 1-15 10-02-113 07-Mar-2003 Illegal Alien

According to this, only the two previous were switched, and the episode that comes before this last one is on next (in like 3 weeks apparently).

teddydogg

Sure I finally give up on the show and now it starts to get interesting. I did see a minute or two of this weeks episode who was that girl on the train? It was like right at the beginnning of the episode. I think Digger is a part of all of this I have thought that for a while now but he seems conveniently available could be like a "watcher" or something.

Patman

The girl is "named" Teresa IIRC.

Breakfast with Girls

Can someone explain this whole Phoenix thing? I might start watching again if it isn't sucking anymore.

Jeraden

It never sucked.

datagirl7

They took all his information too, so now he has to try to remember all the stuff he collected or re-get it. He had a lot of info in that "hidden" room.

B.A.

Definitely the best episode that they have aired in awhile. Loved the twists and turns it took - definitely getting more interesting now. Nice mural they painted, ain't it?

Professor Frink

I missed it! I don't suppose someone could summarize it? Or better yet (since it apparently had a lot of twists), is there somewhere online where I can look? TWP doesn't have a listing for it.
