Wow!!!! The others look like a scary bunch. I did not see that coming. Well I tell a lie; it was obvious the others would be in the bushes chasing a tied up Jin, but I didnt expect them to look like that.

Episode one was a bit of a let down, concentrating to much on Jacks back story rather than what was down the whole and the people on the boat. It was only really there to set up the idea that Desmond was a scientist so that the events of episode 2 made sense. They should have just cut out the whole episode and had a disclaimer at the start of this one stating this fact.

Anyway, after initially thinking that Desmond was one of the "others", I thought it was cool the way you realise he's actually one of the French birds sick companions. Thats when the cogs statred to turn again. So if he isnt one of the "others" then where are they, and what do they want and are they civilized or not etc etc. Basically it felt like a proper episode of lost again, ending with me wanting to see more and find out some answers. I was so pleased this happened after the fairly average season opener.

There was also a "next week on Lost" bit to the episode I watched. It didnt really seem to give anything away but looked fairly exciting and fast paced and Michelle Rodriguez appeared to be in the clip. Which means at least one new character. But who is she and why is she there?

Guess we'll find out next week.

Does it have giant bats in it?

I tried to watch it, I really did. Boring as sin.

I've never seen it, but the title of this thread intrigued me. I thought it was a drama about people being stuck on an island, I thought that they'd eventually get off it or something, I didn't realise there was the possibility of it being strung out for 15 million years like Friends was.

I'm assuming that maybe she's a survivor from another part of the plane (the tail section)?
Those guys at the end looked pretty menacing too, a bit like the ganados from Resi 4. Were they Others or merely other survivors???

Eagle-eyed viewers would have also noticed that when Sawyer was in the water the lurking shark had a logo on its underside (which I think was the same logo on Desmond's top).

The plot thickens...

Yeah, she could be from the other section of plane. Back in season one when Boon was on the radio in the small plane he sent out a distress call saying that he was from the Oceanic flight number 123(or whatever) and eagled eared listeners (I'm sure they have good ears too) would have heard the reply saying, "No!! we're from the oceanic flight 123", so I've been expecting them to meet someone eventualy.

I didnt notice the shark having a logo on it, I'll have to check that out. Maybe the scientists where investigating the sharks or something.

The bit where Desmond asks Lock if he is "Him" and Lock says yes, did you think "so he is a wierdo who knows whats going on and why the're there" and then 10 seconds later try to kid yourself that you never really thought he was odd and knew he was just messing around.

Perhaps Locke said yes he was "him" because Desmond was pointing a machine gun at him, who knows? Anyway, who the hell is "him" anyway I wonder...

I only noticed the logo on the shark because I was stting fairly close to the TV (and I was the only one in the family who saw it). I saw it pretty clearly and said "did you see that logo or something on the shark?" they said, "wah??" and upon winding it back a tad and freezing it you can see it pretty clearly.

Locke was obviously telling porkies when he said he was him, just to avoid getting shot. But for a few seconds there I was thinking "wow he really is supposed to be there". Ive just checked back and seen the logo on the bottom of the shark nad its deffineitely the same as the scientists logoon Desmonds shirt and on the wall when Locke firsts goes down the hatch. I dont know what sigificance this is yet, but im sure we'll find out soon.


Edit:- Ive just found realised that Michelle Rodriguez was in Seson 1. She was the girl that Jack talked to at the bar in the Airport. She told him she was sitting in the tail and of the plane.
