Lost is back this week after a four week hiatus, and we get a very high paced, action filled episode to make up for it ;). I read somewhere that this was supposed to be a Sayid centric episode, but it was more Ben centric than anything else. He sure gets around the world a lot, we saw Tunesia, Iraq and London, UK.

The encounter in the desert was interesting. Looked like he has followed some military training as well, taking out two baddies in one fell swoop. It seemed as if he didn’t know exactly where he landed, when he popped up there. Also asking what date and year it was, was a nice touch to keep us guessing about time travelling. He did make one big miscalculation this episode though. When his daughter was threatened to be executed, he just said he didn’t care about here etc. and hoped to get away with it. But the bad guys (hey they were in Uganda !) were really that bad and executed her in cold blood.

This week’s episode was a Michael centric one, which was to be expected after the big ‘reveal’ last week. Apparently after somehow getting back to New York City Michael was unable to cope with his guild of killing two women. This has also affected Walt, he doesn’t want to talk to Micheal anymore and is now living with his grandma. Michael wants to kill himself but the Island won’t let him (did the gun just jam or did the bullet bounce off your skull ?).

Then in a stereotypical dark New York ally he meets Tom ! Tom is one of the Others who can go off the island from time to time, he doesn’t do it often so when he does he likes to indulge himself :). He shows Michael all the proof that Widmore is indeed behind the fake flight 815 on the bottom of the ocean, so it seems the captain of the freighter is indeed not to be trusted.

This week we got an episode with a major twist. And I must admit it left me confused at first until I realised in the end, the writers very cleverly mixed a flashback with a flash-forward. The biggest giveaway in hindsight was the telephone that was an older model, and was emphasised by Jin smashing it to pieces. I already thought it was very odd that Jin was so obsessed by the Panda bear, while his wife was in the hospital.

An okish episode this week. Which was to be expected after last week’s mindnumbing ‘The Constant’. But it could have been a lot better, this week had some very corny / cheesy scenes that I wouldn’t expect in Lost. Ofcourse a Juliet centered episode can’t be all that bad as she’s very easy on the eyes.

Mindblowing ! That’s how I’d like to describe this episode.

Dan tells Jack and Julliet : “Your perception of how long your friends have been gone, is not nescesarily how long they actually have been gone.” He then tells Jack there might be side effects (which could have also been the title of this episode) if they either didn’t maintain the correct heading, or as it turns out later, one of the passengers has been exposed to a lot of radiation or electromagnetism lately.

So that’s what happened to Desmond when they got back to the freighter. The helicopter passed a ‘thunderhead’ as Sayid called it, and Desmond entered a weird Time Warp and lived in 1996 again. The part played by Henry Ian Cusick was acted so great ! You could feel the despair and confusion coming off the screen.

A somewhat slower paced, not as exciting as the last 2, but very interesting episode. It was very Kate-centric, both on the island and in the flashforward. Some answers were given at least. We now know that Kate did have to appear in court and thanks to her mother not testifying, she struck a very favourable deal with the DA, who didn’t have much of a case anymore, loosing her key witness.

Once again an amazing episode, this time with Sayid flash forwards. The show started with a somewhat disturbing scene where Sayid kills a man on the golfcourt in cold blood. As it turns out, Sayid is working for someone to kill people that are on his employer’s list, so he turned into a hitman. Ofcourse the interesting twist was that to get to his next target he got romantically involved with a german woman, who then turned out to double cross him :).
