...like he hated you.

I hope someone dies tonight. Like maybe Jack. Or Sun, cause she's a terrible mother. Hopefully not crazy Claire cause she's actually interesting now.

Killing a major character would be really fun, because theyr'e always more impactful than watching dozens of extras, Others, and Widmorians die. Realistically it would probably be Miles & Lapidus because they're both kinda useless. The only reason Lapidus will continue to live is if they actually DO plan to fly the Ajira plane off the island.

If you had to kill Jack, how would you do it?

Stephanie said...

I feel like they won't kill anyone who's had a centric episode already this season since the dead people are more aware of the island.

I seriously don't see Jack dying. He's Jacob. Jacob in Jack's body and Flocke will duel to the death. That's how I'm imagining the finale. And then Mark Pellegrino will fly to Toronto just in time to fight the Archangel Michael in Dean's body and be sent back to hell. TV is weird.

Wait, was that a Supernatural reference? Where does Oklahoma City fit into the storyline, cause I called dibs on Jacob. And Desmond. And always Sawyer. Okay, so I'm greedy. Deal with it.

Jimmy said...

I'm so glad Aimee started off this way, as I have NO idea at all about tonight....yet I feel we are going to have a major death. I think the rather creepy promo leads to some serious shit!

It's highly possible that someone may die but be still kicking it in the Alt Universe?

I'm going for Sayid.

Stephanie said...

From the promo, which is creepy btw with the Gene Wilder singing, Morgan has deduced that Flocke will realize the fall didn't kill Desmond and will send Sayid to finish him off. Gunshot!

Jimmy said...

Very possible, Steph. Funny that Locke (before death) fell down the well and survived but smokey assumes Desmond dead?

Yes...I know he was halfway down on a rope but you know what I mean?

Jimmy said...

I'll also say I thought Desmonds "fall" was a bit cheesy...

Read the previous discussion thread about accents. I wish my wonderfully refined Black Country accent hadn't been bastardized by my teen years in New Zealand :(

Sorry...I meant Noo Zullend!

aimee is lost said...

Aimee's new bf (hereafter referred to as "Mike 2.0") is from NYC, and his freaking accent sticks out like crazy in a hick town like OKC. But I love it, because he sounds like an asshole, only isn't.

And I will always dig Jimmy's accent because it's so jolly. I'm not sure what that means, but that was the first adjective that came to mind.

mb said...

Cool Aimee - any pics? ('cause were always up in ur bid-ness like that)

aimee is lost said...

Hmm..sure. Eat your heart out, ladies: Mike 2.0

Stephanie said...

I said Toronto for some reason but meant Vancouver. You know. Canada.

Speaking of accents- I love how some people assumes Kyle from Kentucky is ignorant because of his heavy southern accent... but apparently is fluent in Spanish. Love it.

Stephanie said...

Hot, Aimee. Hot.

aimee is lost said...

Yeah, he had me at bug eyes.

aimee is lost said...

I know what you mean Steph - Kyle may go off on rants, and occasionally say some stuff that's even too offensive for TLI (that gets edited out) but Kyle can whip out some profound shit on occasion, which probably catches a lot of listeners off guard.

PalmerEldritch said...

wait... he says shit more offensive than what makes it in? yowzahs!


my ipod blows so i'm only halfway through TLI. i hope you can find it in your hearts to forgive me.

LOOOOST!!

and, also, ka-blamo!

aimee is lost said...

Yes, believe it or not, Kyle occasionally has some "Too-Hot-for-TLI" moments.

aimee is lost said...

Back to the death conversation though, Jimmy, we've already seen multiple characters alive in the alt world that are dead in the original timeline world (Namely Locke, Charlie and Libby.)

So I still think what happens on the island stays on the island, and is ultimately irrelevant when it comes to the end-game alt-world.

Still crossing my fingers for a Juliet cameo; I just really want to know how her life turns out in the alt world.

mb said...

Yeah Kyle knows his Lost.

Kyle (if you're reading) - I give you all kudos for repeating numerous times long before season 6 that the entire show was going to come down to the concept Locke put forth on the beach with Walt in Season 1 w/the Backgammon board - "Two players. Two sides. One is light - one is dark"

I know you're not the only one to have pointed it out - it just sticks in my mind that you kept harping on that point and I kept thinking "...um...alright - not sure why he's stuck on that" - but you were right.


Aimee - now THAT guy would fuck you like he hated you.
As long as he doesn't arrange to have anyone who flirts with you killed and then justify it by saying "BECAUSE YOU'RE MINE!!!!" I'm sure he's cool.

andrew. said...

- shouldn't the question be 'if you COULD kill jack, how would you do it?' sorta kidding. he's been pretty good this season. fucks a season 4 Jack though.
my vote: Sayid gets the drop on Jack, but right before he shoots him, Ben shoots Sayid. Jack then pulls a holier than thou trip and tries to operate on Sayid and save him right there in the jungle. Kate stands behind him screaming 'Let it go Jack! Let It Go!' but Jack manages to stabilize Sayid. He does that smiley, relieved laughing thing he does as he craddles Sayid's head. Then Sayid stabs him in the heart. KABLAMO!

- i think Juliet is an FBI agent with a super annoying kid in the alt-universe.

- i'm still holding out hope that Lapidus gets his mojo back, gets a little more to do than throw out one-liners. Maybe Sun will get sick of waiting for Jin to stay in one place and bang Frank.

- Hooray for LOST!

Morgan said...

So sad, no LOST next week... :(

PalmerEldritch said...

what now, morgan?!

Stephanie said...

Ab Aeterno next week.

John V. Holder III said...

Yeah, looks like they're re-airing "Ab Aeterno."
