How I wanted to fuck Jack's wife. How I wanted to fuck Jack's father. How I wanted to fuck Juliet and the rest of the Others. Poor Jack. And what does it have to do with two cities in the name?

@francuaza: Juliet listens to the song 'Downtown' Petula Clark, and she has nothing to do with the title of the series, there is no such line in it and there was not. A Tale of Two Cities is a reference to the novel of the same name by Dickens.

I initially thought it was a flashback at the beginning of the series, but everything fell into place when one of the characters started talking about Ben -_-

Sawyer is in a cage like an animal, it was funny to watch how he got his food. And yes, personally, I would also like to try such a large and interesting-looking fish cracker :D

Damn, I can see a picture of how Said would solve all their plans and all the riddles in 5 seconds. He wouldn't have cracked, he wouldn't have let me cry. I understand that Jack has a rather sentimental job that requires empathy and compassion. But damn, the "others" knew that it was necessary to take Jack and two lovebirds.

@DarinaFleur: I understand Said's fanaticism, but he's far from the smartest character in the series. He's probably one of the most trained, yes. But it would be difficult even for Holmes, Wayne or Poirot to unravel the idea. It's too unusual a situation that would never have happened on the mainland.
PS They also said why to take these 4, and not Said and Eco, for example. Not because they are afraid, but because the characters are "special"

I hate this episode. To be honest, I don't even remember how things will turn out with Others there, there will probably be some kind of twist and humanization of at least some characters. But at the moment, it's disgusting. The attitude towards "ours" as animals, as experimental subjects, is absolutely humiliating, and from the position of the higher race, such as "We are people here, and you are dirt from under your nails, unworthy of human treatment." All these manipulations, behavioral studies, experiments - it's just inhumane. Like in a concentration camp, in general. I want everyone Else to turn their heads, or Sayid to turn them, he knows how. Well, maybe everyone except Julie (Mitchell is cool).

Heh, so those who are on the island are not there by chance.I wrote in the comments to the episode of some season 1 that it was possible that these people did not accidentally get to the island, plus a lot of flashbacks where they intersect, but there were doubts that they knew that they would survive the plane crash.And here there is a bang dossier and something tells me that there is such a daddy for everyone on the island.It 's just not clear what their motive is and why they need these people .It seems like an experiment, but what is its essence

hmm, at the beginning of the flashback, "others" were sent to two camps for a person to make lists. so it seems to me that they didn't know exactly who was there. and I can't imagine how they got the information. maybe somehow through the bunkers? these are my reflections, I do not pretend to be the truth.

Elizabeth Mitchell! My heart, my soul. I can't tell you how much I've been waiting for Juliet.

This pastoral beginning, the settlement of civilization in the middle of the Island, the book club look completely foreign (I did not understand what they read at King's, it looks like "Carrie").
The blonde clearly has a confrontation with the leader Ben. We were apparently close, but then the bird got out of control, and we have to continue working together. Judging by how famously he left her in the vault to die, if he had his way, he leaked it long ago.

"Why Sawyer?" I'm yelling because I thought about it right away. Of course, these tough psychological games are still an ass, shady master Ben is very shady, he wants to leave a pleasant impression until he moved on to torture, yeah.

At least they gave Kate a swim, and Sawyer went straight to the pigsty. Are they being reeducated, shol? I feel a little sorry for him, he looks at Katka with those deer eyes forever. And there it is unclear what she wants from whom, and whether she wants.

Jack's obsession with his wife in the past is just scary, to be honest, I didn't think he was such an addict. He also fucked up the whole meeting with his father in a fit.
And how joyful it is to see that in the present he was able to let go of Sarah, was able to move on. These tears are tears of liberation. I am proud of him, being able to vent emotions in our age of sublimation is a very important skill, especially with its permanent stress.

They make disgusting experiments on them, I tell you. Observing people in different conditions of detention? I don't understand anything, it's very interesting.

@chch93: Presumably it was this incident that caused Jack's dad to drink again, which led to the death of the patient in flashbacks in season 1. That is, Jack is indirectly to blame for the fact that his father went downhill.

@Gevorg: Well, I don't know, I don't even find indirect guilt here. Whether to drink or not is up to the person himself to decide. At least do something with him, if he wants to, he'll drink. That's the only way it works with alcoholics.

Julieeeeeee. I waited. I really like the beginning.
I don't understand a damn thing yet either, and experiments are already pretty boring, just like these experimenters.

And I checked out Sawyer's look at Julie. The exchange of glances with Kate passed by, lol. I do not remember whether they will bring them together or not, I hope I will pass this stage quickly. I feel sick looking at Kate and Sawyer.

I love the opening scene with the book club and the falling plane.
By the way, I watched the movie "Last Night in Soho" solely because Petula Clark – Downtown sounded in the trailer. The song is strongly associated with Lost and Juliet.

I remembered why I was having a hard time digesting Juliet. Russian dubbing. This dying voice makes my ears wither. It sounds much nicer in the original.

Sarah cheered Chet up.
"He's the one you'll never be."
Fuck the application.
Jack, for a moment, is a talented surgeon who empathizes wholeheartedly with his patients, which, by the way, makes Sarah on her feet right now, and not in a wheelchair.
I understand that it is possible to stop loving a person, but throwing such words is at least disgusting.
Sawyer and Kate are wonderful. I'm not rooting for the couple, but here we were shown a very tender and tremulous relationship between them.

There are no words. What a bestial approach, starting with the plane crash. No, to help people, no, we need to send spies.
Well, now too - do they keep doing experiments? And they do not give any answers, some kind of psychological manipulation (including over the viewer).
As a viewer, I understand that this is the effect that the screenwriters were trying to achieve, so that it would be infuriating and incomprehensible. But it's getting more and more unclear, and it's hard)))

Savages are savages, yeah, yeah, so much for savages. In general, there were hints that Others were playing a circus on purpose in front of those who come to their island, but here for the first time they revealed the real life of the inhabitants of the island, who, although smart-assed, are quite civilized guys, take a shower, read books. Now, against their background, the survivors of the crashed plane themselves look more like starving people. However, some benefits of civilization were clearly inherited by Others from the "Dharma".

Interestingly, they mentioned an aquarium for sharks and dolphins, as well as bears. So I guess those same white bears were also an experiment of "Dharma", and this also explains a small Easter party in the previous season when the logo of "Dharma" could also be seen on the tail of the shark that attacked Sawyer. Everything fits together in general.
