Lost" "The Long Con" Airdate: Feb. 8, 2006

My apologies for being extremely late in posting this. I actually started writing it on Thursday and then got hit with that funky sinus thing that's been going around. I had to call in sick Friday and that put me behind on a few other projects. I'm feeling better. Now, back to LOST:

So...hmmmmmm... Sawyer is an evil man. His hand was well played though. Taking advantage of everyones paranoia using Kate to turn everyone against each other which ultimately put him in charge was classic. "He who controls the spice, controls the universe" - Dune. He who controls the guns, takes no sh!# from the other survivors. Sawyer made an alliance with Charlie and even conned him into doing his dirty work. However, something tells me that Sawyer is not the kind of person who works well with others. Don't expect the SawChuck relationship to last.

If I had to guess, and that is basically what I am doing... I stay away from published spoilers (at least I try to)... so if I had to predict some of the future of the show, I would say that the other Survivors will find out that it was Charlie who kidnapped/assaulted Sun. After Jin gets through with him, Charlie will be forced into exile and he will be one of the other characters to die. I have heard in talking with other LOST fans and in reading articles on the show that a few more characters will die this season. The shows producers originally said that after Shannon, no one else would die for "a while." It's a pretty widespread rumor now and less of a spoiler that Ana-Lucia will be the next to die. Reports from the set tell the tale of Michelle Rodriguez' diva-like behavior as well as her pending DUI problems in Hawaii. However, J.J. Abrams recently denied all of the rumors about Ana, but that's the first thing you do when info gets out that you don't want out yet. I bet they'll do it. Exactly how she will die is up in the air, but I have that feeling again that it will be at the hands at Kate... who is extra pissed now after getting duped by Sawyer.

Speaking of Kate, did you happen to catch Kate's mom in the diner when Sawyer was meeting with Gordy? They always try to connect each character in some way. All of the connections may come into play when we finally learn what in the hell is really going on.

A few other notable things from this episode:

1. Hurley's comment about "time."
2. Glenn Miller's "Moonlight Serenade" was playing on that radio that Sayid & Hurley hooked up.

(Borrowed From: Glenn Miller History)
"Finally, on December 15, 1944, Glenn boarded a single engine C-64 Norseman aircraft to travel to Paris, France where he was to make arrangements for a Christmas broadcast. Tragically, the plane never reached France and was never found."

3. The script that shows up very quickly in a scene is allegedly about purgatory. This may just be a jab at everyone who thinks that they are all in purgatory. The writers have said that they are not.

That's all I have for now. If I missed anything, feel free to post or send me an e-mail. Here's to the next episode.
