ABC's Official LOST Podcast - Notes

Here's a roundup of Damon and Carlton's latest musings:

• Jin is the father of Sun's child
• Sun was the indirect cause of Jin's "promotion"
• The parallel between the flashback and the island story is Sun's no-win situation
• Naomi's last name is Dorit
• Naomi could either be lying about Flight 815 or there is a major conspiracy in progress
• Next episode, "The Brig" will feature Locke's story as well as Naomi
• Mikhail may not have been killed. The pylons might not have been intense enough. Or he was healed by the Island.
• Mikhail will give us a hint as to how he is alive
• This week's episode is a "turning point"
• The blanks will be filled in regarding the immediate aftermath of Tallahassee Man's cliffhanger
• Anthony Cooper himself will explain how he came to the Island
• Carlton Cuse lent his voice as a lottery announcer in Season One's episode, "Numbers"
• The Button is not the "only method" of bringing vessels to the Island. Sometimes you need an "extra punch"
• The producers don't remember if they ever framed the show in a logical/scientific frame or context.
• The Others are interested in children with 'special abilities'
• We will revisit the psychic's predictions
• There is more to the pregnancy crisis that we don't know about
• There are only two factions of Others

That's it for this week.

Spoilor Episode Delayed

The recent spoiler episode of the Lost Podcast with Pheretic and Pandemic has been delayed. The episode will come out soon keep checkng he website and iTunes for it. Sorry for short notice

!!Naomi Speaking to the World!!

Many things to talk about in genral this week. First off why was Namoi multi-lingual for like a couple minutes. Naomi spoke in three languages Spanish, Chinese, and then Italian, when she spoke in spanish she said "estoy moriendo" or "I am dying". We could not understand what Naomi said in Chinese because obviously Jin and everyone else in the Lost community can't speak that language. But we do have insight on the Italion. Miguel translated and said that she was saying "thank you for saving me", but some believe the actual translation is "I am not alone", I think we will become closer to finding this out in future episodes. Also Naomi has an United Kingdom accent. Maybe she is connect with Charlie or Desmond's past, something we might see in the future? Can't wait to see her in the next episode!!

Radnac's Thoughts on "D.O.C."

Wow. that was a suprisingly good episode; above mediocre and better than last week. I almost lost hope until about 20 minutus into the hour where things started to pick up and we got into the meat of the episode. The flashbacks and the island story actually both kept me interested, and the acting was well done. It's weird that the flashbacks seem to have no parallels to the island story anymore. They could've switched these flashbacks for the Glass Ballerina ones and it would've fit better.
Anyway, since my thoughts are scattered, I'll just bullet-point a few things...

-Why do Korean people refer to currency in American dollar amounts?

-What's up with the Parachutist's mult-lingual crap?

-Why wasn't Mikhail at least deaf or somtething? Did he really die or just badly injured, then healed?

-Mikhail is obviously trying to establish communications again.

-I didn't understand the whole Sun versus Jin's mom thing. Their was no singificant threat. Was she going to leak Jin's background information to the Press?

-I feel like we finally learned more about Sun and Jin. As we all know, character development in flashbacks have become scarce this season; but I think we connected a few dots this time. We got to hear more on Jin's family and the bitter duality of the rich family declining the poor family and vice versa. We also kind of found out why Jin was eventually hired as an assasin.

-The baby's conception revelation was a bit anti-climactic, especially having waited for it so long; but at least it created some conflict.

-The tension between Charlie, Jin, and Desmond was great.

-I think it was funny that they made Charlie act like Kate had told him about Mikhail. And Hurley shooting the flare was priceless.

And finally,

-We got to see a glimpse of what Juliet's real feelings are. We can infer that she is trying to finish her research so she can get off the island. And she hates Ben.

Ohh Mrs. Hawkins

Mrs. Hawkins appears in both episode eight "Flashes Before Your Eyes" but also this episode of "Catch-22". It appears that the central theme of no matter what you try to do it is going to happen (Catch 22) is Mrs. Hawkins(Ring Lady) mode of operating.

Backpack Luvin
