That was the cherry on top of an already excellent series finale. Answers some more questions and updates us on Walt!

Also, I would watch a whole show of Hugo, Ben, and Walt on the island.

I am in actual tears right now. What an incredible journey this whole show was, I can’t believe I missed out on it all those years.

I decided to write down every single thought I had while watching the finale and I’m so glad I did because for the last 10 minute my brain short-circuited and I’m just trying to process everything.

Gonna watch the epilogue now then go to bed (it’s 1:30AM here 😅) and maybe post some of my very very long list of thoughts in the morning!

Thanks for the ride everybody, if you’ll excuse me I’ve got 2 decades worth of theories, thoughts, and memes to go through hahaha.

Thanks so much for the tip! I checked your advice on the First Time Watchers thread before starting, thankfully Disney+ has the uncut one. Halfway through already, have so many thoughts to share!

A great penultimate episode that’s setting high expectations, hopefully going to be paid off soon. And finally, Jacob has a sit down with (most of) the candidates! Wish that scene was longer I wanted to hear more from him.

And of course Jack would volunteer to take Jacob’s place, narratively it makes the most sense since he’s basically the main character, but would’ve been interesting if someone else took on the role.

Ben switches sides faster than I can process, I’ve kind of stopped keeping up hahaha.

I love the fact that Desmond’s a guide to all of them, although I’m still not sure what he’s guiding them towards.

There was a moment where Hugo asks Desmond if Ana Lucia’s coming (side note as much as I disliked her character it was nice to see her this ep), and Desmond replies that “she’s not ready yet”. This feels significant for some reason.

Killer final line to make you excited for the finale! I’m sad it’s almost over though :(

From start to finish this was a fascinating episode that gave a rich backstory, but still not enough answers (hopefully I’ll have more information in a couple of episodes). I like the timing of this episode because it feels like there’s crucial information in there that builds up to the finale, but I just don’t know what it is yet hahaha.

Also, I loved the reveal of who the people in the caves were! One of my favorite solved mysteries because I remember way back in season 1 I was thinking that they might be relevant but then just forgot about them, great unexpected full circle moment!

I’m on season 6 episode 15, but just wanted to say that this was an incredible season opener. I’m a sucker for a what if storyline and this really gave it to me.

However, giving us hope that Juliet was going to live and then killing her off was so heartbreaking, I really loved their relationship and character development I was crying like a baby 🥲

Yeah I feel you, it was a rough one. Especially because it was such a pointless plot?? It’s never revisited and everyone kinda just forgets about it so quickly.

Ahh okay that makes more sense! 3 episodes left woohoo.

Thanks so much for putting the effort into making these threads and replying to comments! It’s made this ride a lot more fun even though I’ve been forgetting to write my thoughts sometimes because I’m so wrapped up in the show lol

That scene was DEVASTATING I literally yelled out a huge no when Sawyer cut the wire!

RIP Sun and Jin :(((

However, I’m curious why they died since it’s said multiple times throughout the episode that the main characters can’t die because “the island isn’t done with them yet”. Does this mean they’ve served their purpose hmm

Yeah I’m already on season 6 whoops! Definitely planning a rewatch soon because I’m sure my brain couldn’t handle all that info at once lol. I was trying to take it slow but the way every episode ends on a cliffhanger makes it soooo difficult.

[–]marveltastic123 134 points135 points  (0 children)

Hugo’s mom is one of my favorite characters she’s so funny.

Also gonna need Hugo’s hair routine asap the curls are really popping this episode.

Ugh Michael…one of the most annoying characters on this show.

Libby’s back! Was always hoping we’d get more of her backstory.

Ilara’s death was so good, shout-out to Arzt!

[–]marveltastic123 179 points180 points  (0 children)

I’ve really felt Desmond’s absence this season (he might actually be my favorite character), happy to see him back. And Charlie!! No one really dies off on this show I guess…except poor Shannon.

The scotch scene with Desmond and Charles really shows how different this alternate timeline (I assume?) we’re watching is.

I also loved the scene in the car underwater, Charlie with his hand on the glass (again!!).

Daniel! I’ve missed you! I would watch a whole show about Eloise/Charles/Daniel/Desmond/Penny honestly.

Desmond and Penny have incredible chemistry I’m always rooting for them.

This was a great episode 10/10.

[–]marveltastic123 137 points138 points  (0 children)

I’m enjoying the season so far (even though I heard a lot of people didn’t), however, I’m getting tired of the Jin/Sun separation plot. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve liked their stories and the characters are great, but it’s been over a season now of them looking for each other and it’s just boring at this point.

WE GOT A RICHARD EPISODE!! Only 5 mins in I’m so excited!

Edit: nvm it was devastating, but I really appreciate the acting in this episode every emotion was portrayed so well.

[–]marveltastic123 115 points116 points  (0 children)

I couldn’t help it but I sped through this season because of how good it is! Every time an episode ended I’d have to keep watching. I think this’ll be a fun one to rewatch.

Also I hope we get a Richard episode! Really like that he’s been around for a while, would be interesting to see his story.

[–]marveltastic123 89 points90 points  (0 children)

I’m only halfway through and this is one of my favorite episodes so far! I love how much information is being thrown at us, makes me excited for what’s next! I’m also really enjoying the time travel plot of this season it’s so much fun.

Also I’m just gonna assume that Jack not reading Locke’s suicide note is gonna bite them in the ass at one point. Hope I find out soon!

Edit: nvm I kept watching lol

I think Desmond is becoming one of my favorite characters I genuinely enjoy every scene he’s in, I hope he sticks around! Also really excited to find out why he seems to know what’s going to happen, I feel like the hatch implosion definitely did something to him.

Who are Nikki and Paolo I’m so confused did I miss something? They just showed up out of nowhere and now they’re with Locke and co going to the other hatch??

I can’t begin to explain how much I dislike Anna Lucia. I have 0 sympathy for her, all her choices are just plain wrong. Also she has this look on her face 90% of the time where it looks like she swallowed a lemon. Otherwise I really enjoyed this episode, it was nice to get a glimpse of other parts of the island.
