Lost 11/03/04



Episode Title: "The Moth"

Spoiler:
Charlie begins a painful journey of withdrawal from drugs, surprisingly aided by Locke, whose true motive for helping Charlie is a mystery. Meanwhile, survivors struggle to find and free Jack when he's buried alive in a cave collapse, and someone might be secretly thwarting Sayid, Kate, and Boone when they enact a plan to find the source of the French transmission.

My wife came up with an interesting theory...perhaps the island grants the wishes of anybody who is on it? Think about it.

Or perhaps they all died on the crash, and they are in purgatory (the "dead" passengers have passed on to heaven or hell).

What is the monster? My guess is a t-rex. Or maybe Zombie Dad when he gets angry?

Your wife is a GENIUS!

Personally I think the little boy has psychic powers. You see, because he wanted his dog back, and he got it. Watch out for that kid, I have a bad feeling about him.

Okay, it was funny at first but it's wearing thin now.

Posting all the theories right off the bat gets them out of the way.

Just imagine how thin it'll be by the end of the season.

Say, did anybody see that Penny Arcade strip...?

Why does every week someone post the same theories that were posted in every thread since the episode came on tv.

Say, did anybody see that Penny Arcade strip...? (It was hilarious when people kept posting it in the same thread constantly)

Flawed.

How do explain that everybody on the island hasn't seen this so called T-Rex. What do you think this is, some kind of Magiwish Peninsula?

The T-Rex isn't hungry. He ate Jack's father. So he hasn't bothered with the beach goers. That and, he would have to get the Mrs. to put sunscreen on his back, and he knows all his buddies will make fun of him for it. So they are safe for now.

it looked to me (from the previews), that this episode is more set-based.

the cave collapsing looked like some big styrofoam rocks falling down.

Wonder who clocked Sayid (sp?) and how come it didn't seem to reflect on the preview for next week?

What happened to the pregnant chick?

Not much happens. Charlie gets off the drugs. Said gets hit by an unknown stick brandisher, thus probably never finding the source of that French chick distress signal. Sun has a brief scene where she stands up to Jin, if only to avoid putting on that damn sweater again. The hick is falling for Kate, and Kate is falling for Jack. This sets up some future conflict. In other love triangle news, the Dad is falling for Sun. Hit-man Jin is gonna have to whup his azz again.

Next week, everyone's had it with the hoarder, so they kill him off. Then Jack proclaims, "As leader of this tribe, the bitches are moving to the cave with me, and the rest of you can stay on the beach and wait for our rescuers."
