lost whateverthefuck episode this is

C'mere, Lost. I'm not gonna hurt you. I'm just gonna kick you in the head!

Noo! Alex! *cries* What the fuck? And Penny? And Nadia? And why is this show all about Ben now? I just I don't know if I care that much about him. And I never really have.

Sawyer kicked major ass this ep. Saving Claire and standing up for Hurley and just being a big damn hero running through that yard and gunslinging and all. It makes me so happy. And not to mention, the dominoes for one of my favorite pairings, sawyer/claire, are falling into place quite nicely. I cannot believe they were just going to leave her to die. Motherfrakkers.

I know I said it already but... Alex! And he just shot her! And! She was dead! And! Oh my fucking GOD! And we even got future!back confirmation that she is indeed dead! (As if there were any question after that goodbye.) And the last words she hears are the man that she knows as father say that she means nothing to him and that she's just a pawn? Harsh! I just. *shake-ah!* *shake-ah!* Lost! Poor Alex. May she rest in peace and live on in fic.

Claire's wig is making me crazy! They couldn't have found time to fit in a "we're cutting hair!" scene in otherville? Damn. Or maybe even have it magically singed off in the explosion?

Speaking of the explosion! Hurley! Throwing the furniture through the window! Yay!

And what the hell? Why are they all still protecting Ben? Thank the lord Sawyer has finally seen the light. Both Ben and Locke are total nutjobs and the farther away everybody is from them the better. (Unless you're Hurley, in which case you'll be playing basketball in your bathrobe back on the mainland in no time.)

And how much do I not care that the smoke monster is at Ben's beck and call?

WTF DAN? Why all the lies? I want to LIKE YOU!

Sayid looked pretty in his flashback duds.

And I loved it when Miles was like "I think I'll stay with you guys for now." Ya think? And Sawyer with his "you harm one hair on his curly head and I'll kill you." Aww.

Conmama! \o/!

Oooh, I respectfully disagree about Alex's death being WTF. I think it was brilliantly done. For the reasons selenak posts about here: http://selenak.livejournal.com/379676.html

ITA about Sawyer. I'd forgotten the Sawyer awesome for a minute while I flailed about all the Ben awesome, but yes.

Sawyer's character arc has been totally believeable, I think, and last night's episode showed that in very little screentime. It showcased his badassness (I usually don't think he's hot, but I was ALL ABOUT his whipping that gun on Locke. I was like "what was that? Did I just feel a pang of lust about Sawyer?") AND (even better) his love for his friend Hurley and his role as a leader in his own right.

Well it was well done because it was WTF though. I really liked her character (better than many others who have passed before her, sad to say). But yeah I agree it was well executed (pardon the pun), but it was still, "holy crap, really?" Regarding my disbelief anyway.

Haha, I wasn't always a Sawyer fan. And I used to think that... maybe end of season 2? Beginning of s3? He was sort of inconsistent? Like the writers didn't know what they were doing with him (or hadn't watched the episodes prior or something?) But he really evened out last season and this season (though we've seen little of him) they've kept him pretty even. You know he's still Sawyer but his arc has really been believable. And for that I am truly grateful because honestly? I don't believe you can say that for probably 95% of the rest of the characters. He's probably their most successful as far as that goes. Sad to say. So right now and probably in large part because of that I'm extremely protective of his character in a "if he dies I will be so pissed kind of way."

You're right that Sawyer's character did falter for a little while, but yeah, I mean recently. Dang he was hot last night.

Yeah, and it was well done because it was WTF. ITA. I thought you meant it was BadWTF. But if you mean it was GoodWTF, then I am with you on that! Because as Ben said: they broke the rules. :D

Oh, Sawyer.

He grows on you!
