Sawyer calling Frank "Kenny Rogers", Locke's face when being shown in the video not to put metal objects in the Vault, just as Ben is piling it up with metal! Sawyer coming out of the water approaching Juliet, her WTF face and his "nice day for a swim!". Then there was the peanut moment with Miles & Rose. Great stuff. I do think Miles' expressions and one-liners are brilliant at times.
As for the story, good god.
- Ben seemingly teleporting to Tunisia with his cut on the arm and his big Dharma jacket
- Whilst he apparently moves the island, but I think after taking into account that video about the rabbit in the Vault, the island actually disappears for a short time. I'm thinking it must re-appear, probably after Penny's boat appears and rescues the chopper guys? Total mindfuck on this one.
- Lapedus joined Desmond in staying on Penny's boat, possibly to reform ZZ Top with Mr Hume. Wonder what happens to Frank as he set out to expose the fake plane wreckage and is now hanging around Penny's boat and people. Jack telling Des he'll "see him in another life brother" was a nice moment.
- Charlotte saying to Daniel that she's still looking for where she was born. Which must mean the Island, as even Miles mentioned to her it wasn't her first time on the place. I remember Ben having a childhood friend called Anne in a flashback shown in Season 3 sometime, maybe Charlotte is her daughter? Would be around the right age. God knows.
- Keamy finding the elevator down to the Orchid control room was a full-on "oh SHIT" moment, especially as I realised pretty much straight away that the device we saw strapped to him would be to do with the C4 on-board the freighter. Glad Keamy is now dead, the bastard.
- Michael finally being allowed to die, via the Jacob / Christian connection, it seems his efforts to save his old companions was enough.
- Jin seemingly dying in the explosion, but even if he did survive, would he find the island again now?
- Sawyer telling Kate a secret being fleeing the chopper. Which I believe would be what I mentioned the other week, regarding his daughter Clementine from his time with Cassidy the trainee con.
- Locke. Dead. Well it was who I first guessed it would be after watching the S3 finale, but I could never figure out how that would happen. Apparently "bad things" happened to the island after Jack & friends had left, and maybe it assumed Locke as a failure for letting them go and the miracles then went away, his paralysis came back.. and worse. His coffin was awful small for a big guy.
- Locke's alias, "Jeremy Grantham" was mentioned several times before the end. And he apparently visited Hugo, Jack and Kate, maybe more of the 06. I believe this would be in a hallucinative way, as he was quoted to have asked for the return of Jack, further adding to the theory he "failed" on the island? But why "Jeremy Grantham"? Fuck knows man.
- The fight scene between Sayid and Keamy was absolutely cracking.
- Is Michael the father of Sun's baby? Madness I know, but there was obvious awkwardness from Sun after telling Michael she was pregnant, he smiled and carried on, whilst she appeared upset. Remember Juliet saying Sun definitely conceived on the island? Add that to Michael & Sun's mutual staring at each other throughout Season 1 and we've got an interesting birth. Sun's child was heard on the phone to her briefly before she met Charles Widmore, but obviously the child's voice can give nothing away.
- Daniel Faraday was obviously shitting himself before his final trip out in the raft, transporting people. He seemed to know this would be the last trip out, he was desperate to get Charlotte off (oo-er), and Miles was urged too. Seeing as Daniel knows all about time-travelling already, plus knows about the Orchid, he may know exactly what it can do and that Ben would be doing it. Therefore his urgency to Charlotte and Miles was probably due to the fact they'd move to a different place in time and space, rather than the fear of a Keamy-motivated "secondary protocol" - burning the island.
- So what happens to Daniel and the other folk in the raft?
