Not really. He was just holding it back. Kinda like how the writers held back everything that actually mattered on the show until nearly the final season.

EDIT:

Should make the rewatch anything but a chore.

Boring episode, IMO. :shrug:
This season has been a real disappointment, with the exception of a few episodes. Maybe it'll start rolling now.....hopefully.

I'm going to guess from next week's preview

Spoiler:
Desmond will die. :(

Yeah. I also loved how they linked this with the Sayid-centered episode.

So did Widmore just explain the flash-sideways? It's a world where Smokey escapes the island. Where Penny and Ji Yeon don't exist.

I haven't watched tonight's episode yet.

With that said, I take the complaints as a good sign. Time and again, this show has frustrated the fanbase as much as possible before kicking it into high gear and amazing us. I can only hope that's what will happen here.

IMO, this is all going back to Desmond turning that key and becoming "Special". Don't ask me how he is special.

They don't call him "The Package" for nothing.

Line of the season. :lol:

Idk. I hope that nothing happens to Desmond. To me, it sounds like he's more of a 'savior' for the island. And we can't assume the preview is necessarily referring to Desmond. It's probably meant to misguide us.

How the hell would he know though?

@DamonLindelof In one week, the conversation is going to change.

Lindelof just tweeted this out.

Well, he does seem to be the most informed person who doesn't have godlike powers on the series at the moment.

Could someone quickly explain to me what you mean by Desmond being the constant? Sorry I powered through all the previous seasons before this one started so I've had to process a ton of info in short amount of time.

I wouldn't be so sure, not by any means...

Desmond was Farradays constant between the past and the present

dunno if that will have anything to do with current season

Oh, and thanks a lot V, for blocking Sun's cards that she was holding up. Stupid ABC...

Don't know. I find Desmond one of the most interesting characters on the show, and I'd hate to see him be written out before the end.

That was pretty obnoxious. ABC had to know they would be pissing off the most vocal fans possible...

Add to the fact they are looking for a pocket of electromagnetic energy-and they have Desmond. All signs point to Desmond, and his 'powers' playing a key role in what is about to happen.

And is anyone else wondering if the Locke being alive in the ALT means anything?

They said:

"I AM LOCKE'S SECRET DAUGHTER"

"DESMOND HAS A NICE PACKAGE"

"JACK, YOU ARE AN ASS"

Tonight's episode was a let-down compared to last week's, imo.
