Hey y’all, and welcome to season 5 of Lost! A big thanks to DocArzt for inviting me to post on his excellent site. I’m sure the last couple of days have been a squeefest at your house as well as mine, and last night did not disappoint. I’ve been fielding the lively discussion that followed my episode guide post to last night’s two episodes over on my blog, and my readers are as perceptive as ever (thanks to them for helping me shape this column with some of their comments!).


And what a way to start the season! Lies, reunions, the return of characters we thought we’d never see again… and wicked ninja moves in a safehouse. (Seriously… forget ADT. Just have lots of chef’s knives sticking up in the dishwasher and keep it open. Of course, it might not be the best idea if you have a toddler and a preschooler. Hm… I need to call ADT back and reinstate that service.)


I’d say the biggest question mark from last night’s episodes was the time traveling island. How is it working? Is there any explanation for it? Daniel tries to explain it as plainly as he can - just like a record is supposed to be moving forward and playing a song, occasionally the needle skips, hitting something in the groove, and can’t move forward, or it moves back, or it jumps around and goes forward, but the needle itself, not being stuck to the record, will have to make the jumps. Perhaps this is an explanation for why the time travel is having a different effect on different people on the island.
