Spoiler alert.
The part that resonated with me the most was the Locke/Jack interaction in the airport, because we've known since season one that Jack is a spinal surgeon who can make the paralyzed walk again, and that Locke is paralyzed with a spinal injury. How did it take us (or maybe just me?) 6 seasons to make this connection?
On a related note, I bet Juliet will still be the fertility specialist in this reality who helps Jin and Sun get pregnant, even if I can't figure how that connection will get made yet. And then somewhere, somehow, she'll be happily having coffee with Sawyer.
Other moments that resonated were mostly callbacks to season one-- Jack needing a pen to help someone breathe, Locke and his box of knives, Kate actually being true to character--
There were moments that were really emotional, too--Ben and NotLocke discussing Locke's death and sad life (ugh, so sad), and the way Sawyer looked at Juliet before she died, AGAIN, for the fifth time in three hours (counting the recap ep). UGHHHH.
Does anyone else think that maybe the Man in Black isn't the villain, that maybe he, like Juliet in season 3, just wants to go home?
Of course maybe not.
I'm confused. And not in a good way. I don't like how little I understand. I'm all for sudden plot twists leaving viewers in the dark, but I'd like to have a bit more material to theorize over and a bit less material making me just confused.
Oh--I know everyone says this, but I thought this episode really did highlight how absolutely fantastic both Michael Emerson and Terry O'Quinn are. Just saying.
