LOST Spoilers - The ODI

Episode 6x15 Across the Sea - First Two Promo Pics

Robyn from Pittsburgh: You're killing us with no Lost scoop this past week. No episode, no scoop. Throw us a small tease or something, anything, please!
I felt lost too. What will we do come June? OK, scoop you may or may not know: This week's episode is most definitely a game changer, and there will be at least one major death. Quite honestly, I'm expecting to cry harder watching this episode than I ever have watching this show. So bring out that industrial-sized Kleenex box, my friends. Also, we'll see the Man in Black's (Terry O'Quinn) true colors. And surprise, they aren't all rainbow-y. This episode and the episode that follows will most definitely have everyone talking. Next Tuesday, episode 15, is the one with no series regulars that also guest stars Allison Janney, and it has a very cool Aha! moment that will make you realize show runners Damon and Carlton did know where they were going from the very beginning. Can you believe the show is really all about alien polar bear ninjas? I know! Me neither! (Tee hee.)

Randall in New York: I hate to ask, but is there anything good coming up for Kate and Sawyer? I hate to ask 'cause I fear the answer.
I don't know much, but I do know they'll end up back in those cages. But not with the same boom-chicka-bow-wow outcome you may be hoping for. Sorry. Honestly, there's so much going on as far as life-and-death shockers and the mythology of the series that from what I know, there isn't a whole lot of relationship focus in the next couple of episodes. That said, you will see Kate show some emotion this week.

Thanks to our good friend Natalie Abrams from TV Guide about this article:

"He's trying to protect everybody like he's always been," insists Garcia, who adds that Ilana's death was the catalyst for Hurley taking a leadership role. Plus, Garcia says: "Having that connection with Jacob [Mark Pellegrino] has definitely given him a bit of chutzpah to take more charge and get stuff done.

"He might be pushing the limits a little bit, but when you have a show with Ben Linus [Michael Emerson] on it, it doesn't really look so bad, what he does, just yet. His intentions are right. It's the last season, so we have to get to the end, so we might as well go and face each other!"

The next episode will pick up with the pow-wow between good and evil starting, Garcia says. He adds that we needn't worry about the safety of Hurley, Jack (Matthew Fox), Frank (Jeff Fahey) and Sun (Yunjin Kim). "[The Man in Black] did give them their word that he wasn't going to do anything. It's been established that he has to keep his word," says Garcia. "So if he gives his word, then he's bound to it."

The question remains: Will the candidates try to blow up the plane to stop Old Smokey from leaving the island? "They built a huge airplane fuselage, complete with wings out of wood and foam," says Garcia. "It would be a really beautiful thing to blow up."

Garcia, who plans to move back to Los Angeles when the show concludes, says the cast will still be shooting until April 24, but they have just wrapped a crucial location: Hawaii's Kualoa Ranch.

"When we were shooting, we had a moment where we held each other's hands and hugged because Kualoa Ranch was Day One of the pilot, so it's always going to be special that way."

Who was missing from that group moment?

"I can't really tell you who was there," Garcia says, "It's safe to say that Ilana is not going to be the only casualty of the great Lost battle."

Episode 6x15 - New Set Pics of MiB and Jacob

Thanks to Judy for the heads up.

kyraou from our forums posted some photos and descriptions of the beach scene between Jacob and MIB that was filmed on Thursday.



They also have over 150 other photos that you can access here.

I found this to be an interesting call for a scene in 6-15. Jacob, "Man in Black" and "mother" are the characters.

Just a few other things

- They are taking down the temple set that has been up at Diamond Head Studios since the beginning of the season as well as clearing out the whole stage.
- I saw them building a new small outdoor set. I THINK it is the interior of a sub. Like a sub cabin. Not sure why they are building it outside, unless they want to poor water into it. :)

Thanks to Steve for the following.

The "Totally Lost" videos are up for the week.

Teaser #1 for “The Substitute”
John finally gets to meet the big man upstairs

Teaser #2 for “The Substitute”
UnLocke doesn’t leave Richard Alpert hanging

Teaser #3 for “The Substitute”
Sawyer gets drunk on raw power

Teaser #4 for “The Substitute”
Benjamin Linus learns that if you’re going to kill someone…
…you’re obligated to say something nice

You can see the video here.

Do you have an answer to this ‘Lost‘ question: Why wasn’t Shannon on the plane? Was it plot-driven, or actor-driven? – Taffy via Facebook
Shannon’s absence from the season premiere was actor-driven – Maggie Grace’s busy film slate precluded her from swinging by Hawaii at the right time – though the “flash-sideways” reality would have you believe that Boone was simply unable to talk his sister-lover into bailing on her abusive Aussie beau. Frankly, I found Shannon’s absence, Charlie’s arrest and Juliet’s re-death to scream, “Actor unavailability!” Now, I heard from one source that Grace would make a cameo at some point, but I have yet to corroborate that buzz. Her rep will only say, “There is not much to comment on at the moment.”

Why does ‘Lost’s “Man in Black” want to kill Jacob so badly? – Gail
We may gain some insight around midseason when, Terry O’Quinn told E! Online’s Kristin, “NotLocke” spouts forth “four pages of the history of the island.” I personally suspect the gents’ feud dates back further than 1845, when they sat there watching the Black Rock slave ship near the island. Why? Because at last month’s TCA tour, Damon Lindelof let slip that the Man in Black’s origins date back “thousands and thousands of years.”

Hurley speaks to someone very close to Richard's past and conveys this person's message to Richard. Definite tearjerker on par with when we first meet Bernand and he finds out Rose is okay in season 2.

- Man in Black has a true nemesis - and it's not Jacob.

-"Happily Ever After" marks Desmond's full return - his centric episode as well. His "flash-sideways" feature Charlie, Daniel, Penny, Mommy, Jack, Widmore, and Claire. Widmore and Desmond share some of that famous scotch. Des has to make a very, very big sacrifice.

- "Everybody Loves Hugo" marks the return of Libby and Michael. Michael is a ghost on island and Libby and Hurley date in his "flash-sideways." Locke gets run over. Man can't catch a break, can he?

Widmore, Ben, Locke, Jacob, Man in Black... will we ever find out who the good guys really are on Lost? — Lin
MICKEY: We asked Josh Holloway, who portrays Sawyer, one ethically complicated dude, what he thinks. "I think the whole beauty of this show and the intrigue has been the constant question of what is good and what is bad and what is right or wrong," he says. "That is the entire crux of the show, so no, you're never going to get a clear picture. You're going to be left with that question to answer for yourself." Next you'll be telling me the numbers are just... numbers!

Thanks to TJ for the following.

One of our local radio stations morning show, Preston & Steve on 93.3FM WMMR, had an interview with Terry O’Quinn this morning (should be able to download on www.prestonandsteve.com later this morning).

He said he could tell much, however he did say that last season he was playing the character of John Locke, who we find out in the last episode IS NOT John Locke. He mentioned that we find out in the first episode the TRUE identity of his character.

Here is the new regular TV Guide "Getting Lost" video.

There are many questions to be answered in the final season of Lost, premiering Tuesday, Feb. 2 (9/8c on ABC). Terry O'Quinn helps tackle our first one: Is the new Locke (aka Man No. 2) a good guy or a bad guy?

Find out O'Quinn's answer, get a refresher course on where we last left the Losties and what's ahead in Season 6 in the video below:

With "Lost" fans eager for answers in the final season of the ABC drama, at least one of the show's mystery may get resolved: Who is Jacob's nemesis?

Titus Welliver, who played the mysterious character in six episodes last season, is set to reprise his role in the second part of "Lost's" sixth season, which premieres Feb. 2.

Jacob's nemesis (aka Man in Black), who last appeared in Season 5's finale, is an inhabitant of the Island who had spent a century looking for ways to kill Jacob (Mark Pellegrino) until finally succeeding in 2007 by assuming the appearance of the dead John Locke (Terry O'Quinn) and persuading Benjamin Linus (Michael Emerson) to stab Jacob.

The Man is Black's name, identity, motives, backstory and bone of contention with Jacob were never revealed, leading to a flurry of speculation among "Lost" fans about who he really is.

Paradigm-repped Welliver recurs on CBS' freshman drama "The Good Wife" and also recently did an arc on the FX drama "Sons of Anarchy."

Dark,

You provided an excellent analysis of the hangman, but wanted to offer up a few of my thoughts since this is my final one and my last time really interacting with your readers.

First of all, congrats to all of you for solving so quickly. To address the people confused by the names used... it's to make it challenging and more accessible to those familiar with the show (obscure names and all). Those who think using full/mixed names is cheating, you can use puzzle-solving websites to help you, so I think we're even. A hangman that's easy to solve in a day with only one letter isn't much for for either of us. You were able beat the Christmas hangman before Christmas, so it's clear you can handle it.

A CHESS GAME IS AN APT ANALOGY AS WHITE AND BLACK MANIPULATE THE PAWNS. THE EYELINED ONE IS TORN, AS “SAMUEL” AIDS HIM, BUT FOR A PRICE.

The hangman offers up some specific things, but I also wanted it to highlight larger events and themes, not only of the season, but the series. The representation of light and dark were always meant to be part of the series, and become actual characters that represent the sides, but in the first line, the names Jacob or MIB aren't used because they aren't the only ones being referred to by "white" and "black."

The chess game is a nod to the Spanish trailer for season 6, but also to the importance of games in the series. Lots of games have been referenced throughout the series. Games must have players from different sides. And if one side has won, then the other side has...

ALDO, DOGEN, MARTIN, LENNON, AND OMAR ARE NOT LONG FOR THIS WORLD. SOME FALL TO A TRAINED SOLDIER WHILE OTHERS DISCOVER THEIR DARK SIDES FOR THE FIRST TIME. OTHERS THOUGHT GONE REAPPEAR, INCLUDING AN ATTENDANT AND TWO YOUNGSTERS.

Kudos to those who got the reference to Sayid from season 1. Dark sides being discovered doesn't just refer to taking a life or two... it also refers to the overall sides people join.

DISCOVERIES ARE MADE. JONATHAN ACCOMPANIED BY JIM FORD READ THE CRUCIAL WRITING ON THE WALL, LITERALLY. THE LATTER FROM ABOVE STUMBLES ONTO A MACABRE PILE, "KENDALL" AND A TRAP SPRUNG SEVERAL TIMES.

Jonathan = Locke. I know, I know... but you figured it out.

LANDING BRINGS MIXED BLESSINGS. CHRISTIAN'S A GRANDFATHER, A CHANCE ROMANTIC DATE ISN'T REALLY BY CHANCE AT ALL, AND ALTHOUGH MANY OLD FRIENDS CROSS PATHS, NORWOOD IS NOT TO BE A LOCKE NOR JAZEEM A JARRAH.

It was my fault with the Christian being a grandfather thing. Originally, it read "Christian's a grandfather.... again" Somehow, the "...again" part was swept away by accident and it wasn't realized until after it was solved.

AND SOMEWHERE, LITTLETON KILLS KATE...

The first letters revealed were selected in order to highlight this section and make people speculate rampantly before other letters were released. I know it was cruel, but isn't rampant speculation between episodes what this show is all about?

ALMOST. BUT WHOSE SIDE IS ANYONE REALLY ON?

Picking sides is obviously a clear theme throughout the recent seasons, but is especially important this season. Also... this has multiple meanings. I'll end with this: A side can refer to a team/group, but it can also refer to an actual area divided by something. What's something that can divide land on the island?

Glad people had fun. Happy nondenominational holiday to all.

P.S. There are several other references buried in here somewhere that'll make a lot more sense once season six has aired. I suggest rereading this after. Also, Hurley is the best character in the series.
