4x14 "There's No Place Like Home" Part 3 Future

WHOO HOO! I FINALLY GOT THIS BLOG WRITTEN! Having a life sucks when I can't keep this blog. I'm gonna post this now, then I'm gonna clear out the cobwebs and dust that have accumilated since my last post.

Note: The flashforwards in this episode take place immediately after those in TNPLH part 2. The entire flashforward here is covered in three episodes, "Through the Looking Glass," and "There's No Place Like Home," parts two and three.

Sayid and Hurley

1. The time is 8:15 when Sayid kills the man watching the mental hospital. Why is Hurley under surveilance and who's paying for it?

2. Jeremy Bentham has been dead for two days. Cause of death: suicide?

3. Why has Sayid been watching Hurley and where do they mean to go if not the Island?

4. Hurley has been playing chess with Eko! I wonder who else he's seen? Libby perhaps?

Sun

1. Sun is currently in London. I like how her mother tells her to "fly safe."

2. What is her business with Widmore? In the only Sun-centric scene in TNPLH Part 1, she says to her father that there are two people responsible for Jin's death, her father being one of the two. Does the fact the her only flashforward scene here is shared with Charles Widmore mean he's the other?

3. It would seem that Sun is using Paik industries to find the Island.

4. "We're not the only ones who left the Island." Did Widmore once call the Island his home?

Kate

1. The voice on the phone call says "The Island needs you. You have to go back before it's too late."

2. Why is Claire telling Kate not to bring Aaron back? It also sounds like a throwback to when she says to Charlie, "Bring Aaron back!" in Exodus.

Jack and Ben

1. I never pegged Jack as the type of person to listen to rock music. I always thought of him as a classical kind of guy.

2. So now Ben Linus has come to pay his respects to Jeremy Bentham.

3. Jack and Jeremy spoke about a month ago. "Some very bad thing happened. And he told me it was my fault for leaving, and he said that I had to come back."

4. "The Island won't let you come alone." The Oceanic Six must return to the Island.

5. "Sun blames me for..." Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe Jack's the other person she holds responsible.

6. "You have to do it together. All of you." Including the man in the coffin, Jeremy Bentham, which is the assumed alias that John Locke is using!

4x14 - "There's No Place Like Home" Part 3 Island

In the Orchid

1. Keamy's dying words, "wherever you go, Widmore will find you." I wonder how he'll find the Island this time.

2. Ben's line about good command decisions and bad emotional responses is bull. He never cared about any of the survivors, which is why he had no problem killing Keamy.

3. Placing metal in the chamber caused it to explode.

4. The name on Ben's coat reads "Halliwax."

5. "Whoever moves the Island can never come back." This is Ben's punishment but for what still remains to be seen.

6. Ben's people are now Locke's people. What does Richard mean by "welcome home?"

7. We see from the cut that Ben gets on his arm from falling off the ladder, that "The Shape Of Things To Come," starts right after Ben moves the Island. I wonder what exactly his plan is? Could he really be out vengeance against Widmore or is he trying to get back to the Island.


On the Chopper

1. Nothing important here other then that Sawyer's absence has stabilized the helicopter so it can return to the freighter.

On the Freighter

1. Keamy's dead, now the bomb is in play.

2. NOW the chopper's arrived. There's no way this situation will end well.

3. Jin left for the surface, but he waited too long. Is he dead or alive? My money's on alive.

4. The "whispers" can even be heard off Island. I find this interesting because when Charlie appears to Hurley, we don't hear the whispers in that scene even though it's off Island.

5. What is Christian doing on the boat and what did he mean by, "you can go now Michael?" Was he given a chance to get off the boat?


On the Beach

1. Sawyer finally made it back to the Island but the boat's gone.

2. Juliet is now hitting the liquor in response to this development. I'd hate to see her after the Island moves.

Return to the chopper/ on the life raft

1. Sun is clearly devastated by the loss of her husband. Every thing she does in the flash forwards is most likely influenced by that one moment.

2. The sound that is made when the Island moved is similar to the one that was heard at the end of season 2 when the Swan imploded.

3. Why doesn't Jack think that Locke moved the Island? What does he think happened?

4. The scene in which Penelope's boat discovers the raft is similar to the scene in which the Other's discover Michael's raft at the end of season one.

5. What made Jack decide to lie? Given his self-serving attitude on all matters leaving the Island, he seems to have no real reason to protect the Island.

6. At long last, Desmond and Penelope are finally reunited. This moment has been built up for the past two seasons.

One Week Later

1. The stage has been set for the re-emergence of the Oceanic Six. The next events that follow chronologically are the flashforward scenes in TNPLH Part one.

2. The castwaways have said their goodbyes to Desmond, Penelope, and Frank and have now sailed to Sumba to make their debut as the Oceanic Six.
