Geekscape Lost Recaps – The Last Recruit

A major question was answered last night with the reveal of who “on-island Christian Sheppard” really was. This must mean NotLocke has also taken the form of Yemi, Kate’s Horse, and so on. Overall, I enjoyed last night’s episode.

Desmond’s Intent

Was Desmond looking out for Aaron? Or was he trying to reunite Jack and Claire the whole time? Was it both?

Juliet

Obviously Sawyer and Kate aren’t supposed to be together, or they would’ve had one of those “moments” when Sawyer arrested her. So where’s Juliet?! My guess is she’s going to deliver Aaron.

Sun

I believe it’s possible that when Sun bumped her head on the branch, which caused her to temporarily lose the ability to speak English, flash-sideways Sun caught a glimpse of what on-island Sun was feeling and seeing. This would explain her reaction to seeing John in the stretcher scene above.

Desmond, Sayid, and Claire

Of course we know Desmond isn’t dead. The question is: Where is he at now? Also, by talking to Desmond, I think it’s safe to say we have the old Sayid back. And by talking to Kate, I think it’s safe to say that we have the old Claire back too. But is anything safe on this island?!?

Widmore

The exciting conclusion between the two old men (NotLocke and Widmore) is drawing near, and Jonathan couldn’t be happier (Editor’s note: ugh… really? THIS is what it comes down to? The Bucket List 2?!?). I’d say Widmore is going to use the candidates as bait. Not exactly what Sawyer had in mind when helping Widmore, but we all know Sawyer wouldn’t want to be bait.

Theory of the Week!

Jack is ultimately Jacob’s replacement. He made the point that NotLocke is afraid of what they might become. So by taking Jack and the rest of the potential candidates off the island, there will be no one to stop him, ever.

As always, I hope some of you comment below to keep the discussion going. Remember, everything I say doesn’t have to be right, so if you want to point anything out, have another theory, or anything else, feel free to comment below or email me at jake108@geekscape.net
