Lost Nation!
If you are reading these words, it means you have seen tonight’s episode, “The Little Prince,” and you are ready to talk about it. While I finish up my recap of the episode (it will post several hours from now), some preliminary thoughts after the jump:
*Solid, often moving episode. Liked how the season took some time tolet the characters stop and talk about what the heck is going on, howthey feel, exchange notes.
*Confused by the jumps in time? Here’s how I tracked it. The firstone took the Left Behinders from the 1950s to the fall of 2004 and thenight of Aaron’s birth and Locke’s encounter with the glowing hatch.(These season 1 episodes: “Deus Ex Machina” and “Do No Harm.”) Thesecond time flash took the castaways to a point not yet seen on theshow—because my hunch is that it hasn’t happened yet. Wanna bet that“Ajira Airlines” bottle came from a plane that is going to bring theOceanic 6 back to the Island? The final flash took Locke’sOrchid-seeking band to the night in which The French Lady’s peepscrashed on the Island. According to lostpedia.org, the year is 1988.
*Did you see Ben’s van? The words on the side said “Rainier-Canton.”That’s an anagram for…. reincarnation! Is there hope for corpse Locketo rise again?
*Jin’s back! I had the chance to speak with actor Daniel Dae Kimduring my recent visit to the Lost set. Check out the brief video chatthat will be included in the recap to come!
Now, check out my conversation with Daniel Dae Kim about tonight’s big revelation, and then start your talking. I’ll post my yakking later. Namaste!

What a great episode! Loved Sawyer seeing Kate. And Jin!!!!!! I was hoping since last season’s finale that he was alive, but I’m now worried about the illness that killed Roussaue’s mates….
Amazing episode! I loved the twisting around with the lawyer storyline, and thought once Claire’s mom appeared in the previously section she would be the one going after Aaron, but was totally blindsided by the red herring she really was.
I totally called Rosseau being with that French group, though, and was confirmed when I saw she was pregnant.
Also, whoever Sun’s tracking goes to the mailbox a lot, when she got the delivery I paused and saw the paper, it was a detectives report, and most of the entries said the subject did not leave the house except to go to the mailbox several times a day . . . hmmm.
what an amazing episode, i was literally jumping for joy when i saw jin return! hmm i wonder when ben stole alex from danielle…
I am ecstatic that Jin is alive!!! That just made the show for me.
the French Lady ….who is she again …my head is still spinning …her name is Danielle?
My favorite line of the night goes to Sawyer: “I TAKE THAT BACK!”
Otherwise, tonight was predictable filler. The best part was the very end with Jin. Won’t that reunion with Sun be interesting…
I’m glad that the producers have an endgame in mind. It will be interesting to see them bring everything back together.
NVM she’s Alex’s Mother …(looked it up)
miles is chang’s kid.
As soon as they revealed that the Losties were jumping through time, I have been praying for a Danielle flashback (well, I guess it’s not a flashback; not sure what the appropriate word would be). I was so uspet that they killed her without giving her a flashback ep. Finally, we’ll get some answers about “the sickness” (and maybe the Whispers).
Sawyer’s line “THANK YOU GOD!! ….AWW I TAKE THAT BACK! was golden I was laughing so hard..
this was an amazing episode!
They seem to just get better as the season progresses.
I loved the whole thing
the “Whispers” are the Lost people themselves …when jumping thru time what they heard was themselves…thats my theory atleast …
Hate to disagree … but the BEST line of the night was, of course, Sawyer:
“Who are they .. other Others?”
Umm…wow! That was an awesome episode. I have said it from DAY #1 that Jin was still alive. It feels so good to be right. I also knew that Ben was behind the lawyer…not surprising really. I was excited that they brought Danielle’s story back into play. I love it when things come back full circle!
All I have to say is that I want more Sawyer. I love his character and he has been taking a back seat lately. Sure, he has some great one liners: “You told her?!” & “I take it back!” But we need more!
I wonder how Ben is going to prove to Sun that Jin is alive? …and what is Faraday hiding …I can’t seem to figuer that guy out…why won’t he say whats going on with charlotte?
