I don't even understand what they're trying to do here. What's the point? What are the survivors trying to accomplish?

It feels like this season has no direction.

Isn't it a little early to draw conclusions about the direction of this season?

Who says they need to have something to accomplish other then sit back and go along for the ride of this Jacob/MIB war? I'm sure there will be some kind of mission or something they have to accomplish, but this is just episode two. I can actually see the direction it's going in already. People are going to be taking sides, this war is going to be decided and the characters personal conflicts will be resolved in the alternate universe. Where that universe will come into play remains a question.

Maybe I'm just impatient. Hopefully you guys are right!

Best episode this season by FAR. It was exciting, drew me in. And I care! Wooooo!

Man Claire is a b*tch. I liked that black guy...

Next week looks epic. And by that I mean the fact that they won't even show us anything from it speaks volumes.

Even if this season's "direction" isn't clear...I feel like every episode so far could have been...well...done in one episode.

Why? He didn't really do anything.

Anyway, I don't know who to believe on this, weither the others are telling the truth about this whole infection thing.

Claire has a pretty good reason to hate the others, I mean, electrocuting and branding her with a hot iron, without telling her why, that's some f*cked up sh*t right there. So I don't know if she's really all "evil" now or if she's just really crazy and pissed off.

One thing I want to know is, how can Ben still be alive and off the island in that alternate timeline? If Jack's plan to blow up the whole island succeeded and created an alternate timeline, then shouldn't Ben be dead since he was on that island as a kid? How did he survive? I also want to know how in the hell ANYONE is alive right now. I mean the f*cking island blows up and yet... it didn't, and everyone gets nothing more than a bad headache.

But whatever, it's not any less bizarre than what you normally get from Lost.

Eh, I dont agree. Lost isn't just about explaining all the plot points, the character development is important too and I don't mind too much when an episode decides to focus more on a character than moving the plot forward. However this is the last season, so the writers really need to step it up and explain as much as they possibly can. The only real revelations in the new episode is that now we know how The Others know so much about the survivers, and a few other things that I won't spoil for anyone who hasn't seen it yet.

Still, pretty good episode.

Maybe that's not how the island ended up under water?

I have but one complaint about this weeks episode. There were Adam and Eve... Hurley was looking over them, talking about them. I'm like... "it's Rose and Bernard dude... find something that belongs to them.... find it... FIND IT." And then they proceed to walk off and drop it. Like, that was the perfect chance to explain who they are. Even if they aren't Rose and Bernard (which I guess seems a bit likely since I assume they time traveled as well) they could have done something with it... what are the chances we'll ever be back at that location again looking at those two corpses? And who is going to just bring it up and ask Jacob or something? It's these little things I want to know.
