Locke: Doing what needs to be done since S1 :bow
3 episodes in and I'm impressed. The pacing is even better than the opening of S3, and unlike that season there aren't any repetitive flashbacks

I'm loving that change. Instead of flashbacks that re-enforce character driven themes this season has very interesting...flashforwards I guess. Or you can say everything that happens on the island is the flashback.
So...6 members get off the island. So far Jack, Kate, Hurley, and Sayid are confirmed to be apart of this group (I dunno if I should count Ben), with another member possibly dead and another possibly married/in a relationship with Kate. Apparently getting off the island didn't go as planned - members were left on the island, and apparently Sayid makes some horrible mistake. Some group wants to find the island, and it seems like Sayid is ensuring they don't, with Ben being his "boss." Hurley wants to go back...so does Jack at one point hm.
Locke is quickly becoming my favorite character. He's a selfish bastard but his self interests seem to lead to survival imo. Also The Economist was a fuck awesome episode
These people that came to the island...if they're really there for Ben, are they also there for Dharma? Finding a Dharma relic near the polar bear bonez kinda made me think this. Maybe the group wants Ben due to his various crimes and they also want to get back to the island for whatever...maybe they're the Hasbro people (or whatever they're called)

I just watched The Constant. The journal was written by someone who's last name was Hanso. Penny's dad purchased it, and we also know he sponsored the world race Desmond was apart of. Dunno if these two things are connected but if they are, perhaps Penny's dad has some involvement in this entire thing.
