Lost Tawk: Cabin Fever

Yay!  Last night's episode was a thousand times better than last week's absolute dreck!  As always, I don't even know where to start.  It was a Locke-back, which was just awesome.  Poor young Locke.  How awesome was it that he drew SMOKEY as a child.  Smokey, people!!  And how was seeing Richard "guyliner" in that FB not one of the best WTF moments in television?!  Of course, while we got answers, we got questions.  Why was Abbadon an orderly in Locke's hospital?  Is Claire dead?  If she is, why is she still wearing a bandaid on her head?  What happened to Jacob and why is Christian speaking on his behalf?  What has Claire been smoking that she looked so stoned and didn't care Turniphead wasn't with her?  And, how creepy was that whole entire effin' cabin scene?!

So, there's the captain who tried to be a hero and tried to stop that bastard Keamy from doing more damage to our Losties and their island.    However, he was quickly cut down by that rat-bastard Keamy.  Boo!  I want to see more of

Captain Hunky!

Captain Beefcake!  I hope we do see more of him through some flashbacks or something.  Anything.  More!  More!  More!  More!    Ok, back to our regularly scheduled programming...

And, how awesome has Frank turned out to be?!  I mean, he has really put his neck on the line trying to help the Losties.  Keamy and Co. better leave him alone!  Sayid leaves the freighter to go back to the island while Desmond stays behind.  Oh, and Michael is still there getting beat to a pulp.  Poor Michael.  Man can't get a break.  What I don't understand is how Sayid is going to find the island when everyone and their uncle seems to have a hard time doing so.  And, on a tiny boat.  Just when we almost had a Jack-free show, he had to find the pack with the phone in it that Frank threw out of the helicopter.  And, of course, Jack is going to try to do something "heroic" and lead everyone into danger.  Again.  Or whatever. 

So, how creepy was it that it was confirmed that Richard Does. Not. Age.  Aaack!  They need to do some 'splainin about that one.  Yea, it's been speculated that he was part of the original crew of the Black Rock, along with possibly Widmore, but with this show...who knows!  Speaking of which, I totally thought Horace was Jacob because their profiles looked similar.  So, Christian and Jacob are in cahoots, and now they've got Claire all stoned and happy.  I guess it didn't strike Locke as strange that Christian and Jacob said the only way to save the island was to move it.  Yea, with this show and the shenanigans that have been going on...that makes perfect sense.

Next week is part one of a two-part season ender.  I'm kind of sad to see this season end and angry that we got gyped out of several episodes due to that writers' strike.  The writers were on a radio show last week and said there were only about 36 episodes left in the series.  As much as I'd like some more answers to many of the dropped plots on this show...I really don't want to see it end so quickly.  I mean, there's so much dreck that lasted much longer it's really a shame this is ending so soon.  But, I guess with all the outlandish storylines going on, it would be difficult to suspend belief for much longer.  In the meantime, I'm totally this show's biatch.
