Michael Ausiello from TV Guide fields a few Lost questions.....
http://www.tvguide.com/Ask-Ausiello

His vague answer prompts me to go way out on a limb here and say what I thought I'd be sorely tempted to do, if all hope is lost and you're facing your worst enemy - suicide. That would be one way a Oceanic 815er would go out, on his or her own terms. Yes you'd have be extremely desperate to choose this way to die but I could see one of these people at least thinking about it. Question is, who? Many have others to live for now (Sun/Jin, eachother and the baby, Bernard/Rose, eachother, Claire - Aaron and a brother she doesn't even know about but I'm sure Ben knows she's related to Jack, Hurley - to press on in Charlie's memory, well same with Claire to get back to her, Kate - toss up, Sawyer, Jack and a possible baby, Juliet - Jack, Ben - island, "daughter" Alex, Danielle - Alex, Karl - Alex and her mother (where are HIS parents, BTW?), Sayid - justice, Sayid-style.......who am I missing here? Locke? Locke could be suicidal if he thought he'd be living in a wheelchair again. Michael - only if Walt was killed, God-forbid! Sawyer - Kate would be his reason to live.

So I don't see any of them so desperate to choose suicide but possibly Locke. He is that crazy too.

I could be of course way of base here too.....mainly I love how this show just seeps into your everyday life, you begin wondering what the real story is here!

LOL I've been lost the last couple of episodes. They kept saying that another of the 6 would be revealed and the baby is the only one that was tonight....Kate called him Eric, close enough to Aaron and she would've wanted to change his name I'm sure. I can't believe she hauled off and hit Sawyer! (side note - boy he looked hot!!!!) I'm also wondering if she lied to him when she said she isn't pregnant......

UGH!!! These writers do too good of a job, that's for sure! It just seems like we're seeing a lot of flash-forwards for them to have over 32 episodes still left......expect more twists and turns boys and girls :yow:

Aaron is not considered one of the Oceanic 6. Why? Because technically, he was on plane, but he wasn't on the manifest. So, the final 2 are yet to be revealed.

I may be wrong here, but I thought in all the commercials for Lost this week they talked about revealing another of the 6.....there wasn't anyone else revealed tonight.

I thought they were talking about Kate. Someone may have forgotten that we know Kate is one of the Oceanic 6.

Spoilers in my comments.....



OMG! I cried, the second I heard Kate say Aaron's name. So what does this mean for Claire? I know she was going to give him up but she was such a good mother! I am in utter shock, at this latest story twist. And why wouldn't Jack want to see Aaron? He's his nephew! Of course Jack may not know this but we know it to be true. And if he didn't know Aaron was related to him, Kate is doing the honorable thing here raising Aaron for Claire, you'd think Jack would have nothing but respect for Kate!

I'm sad, confused but still, w/o a doubt, love this show.

And for the record, I've always said Kate is in love with two men - Jack and Sawyer. It's as if she wants to split herself in two, to be truly happy. It's rare when a fictional character in this situation is female, usually it's a man torn between two women, wanting to keep both. Just another Lost type plot twist!

I'm getting a bad feeling about Claire . . . :( TPTB have said that Jack and Claire will find out that they are related this season

I have a bad feeling about Claire too. That is why I just started crying. As if she had just died.

Of all the Survivors of Flight 815, Claire stood out as just so genuinely good to me. Yes she did get pregnant but other than that, she didn't have a heroin addiction, she didn't rob banks or kill someone, she didn't cheat on a spouse, she didn't kill for a boss, she just - got pregnant! Hardly enough reason in my opinion to be one of these society rejects, that the island wanted so badly (if you believe Locke and Ben). But then again, maybe the island rejects her, b/c she is just so good? I don't know where I'm going with this but from day one, Claire has always been just so darn nice. She doesn't seem to fit in with the rest.

The TV Guide Lost Blog......enjoy. I am still reeling from last night's episode.

DO NOT read if you haven't watch it yet!

Lost
Episode Recap: Eggtown

This show gets me every single time. I don’t know if I am in the minority on this or not, but I didn’t see the Kate/Aaron twist coming at all. I thought for sure that the baby was Sawyer’s and that Kate would walk into that bedroom and call him James. I gasped when she said Aaron—literally gasped! I thought that we would learn the reason that Kate decided to leave the island was because she lied to Sawyer about being pregnant and knew that the only way to save the baby (and herself) was to leave. I think it is safe to say that we can count Aaron as one of the Oceanic Six. So what does that leave us with, you ask? A boat-load (or rather, a freighter-load) of questions, as usual. And yet, instead of being completely frustrated, I am riveted.

At first glance, as Locke prepared breakfast for his hostage, I thought that we were being introduced to the next “survivor.” I’m sure most eager fans have already identified the novel that John grabbed off the shelf as Philip K. Dick’s 1981 science fiction novel VALIS (an acronym standing for Vast Active Living Intelligence System). Click here for a link to the author’s site and a summary of the book. Based on the quick research I did, there are some interesting parallels to be drawn.

Overall, the flash-forwards tonight were not as compelling as I hoped they would be based on the previews with Kate in a sea of paparazzi. However, I am glad that we got a solid explanation about how she was able to walk away from a murder rap. It would have been harder to swallow if she got off the island and all was simply forgiven as a result of the notoriety. (To all my fellow Big Love fans, Kate’s attorney was played by Shawn Doyle, Bill’s reluctant-polygamist brother Joey.)

Back on the island, Kate was up to her old tricks, mixing it up with Sawyer and defying Locke’s orders. Getting Miles some face time with Ben resulted in an awkward extortion attempt—for the strangely specific amount of $3.2 million in cash, Miles agreed to mislead his employer into believing that Ben is already dead. However, Miles ended up with the short end of the stick as John went to some rather extreme measures to keep him from talking. (Yes, I would say that a live grenade is an excellent incentive to keep your mouth shut.)

As for last week’s island escapees, Jack and the gang on the beach waited impatiently for word from Sayid and Desmond. However, nearly a day after their departure, no response had come from the freighter. When Charlotte finally gave up the secret, “emergency” number, the woman on the other end of the line had no information about the helicopter or its occupants. So, is this another example of the island's apparent time distortions or has something terrible happened to the chopper?

Future Jack’s trial testimony was definitely revealing and certainly provided a window into what the world knows (and doesn’t know) about the Oceanic Six. In his testimony, Jack stated, “Only eight of us survived the crash.” (By the way, if six made it off the island, who are the two that allegedly died between the time of the crash and the rescue in this fairy tale?) He went on to sing Kate’s praises as a hero/savior in what really was more an account of how he had taken control of the situation. It is now confirmed that the Oceanic Six lied when they returned. But why? Did Locke’s group swear them to secrecy or is this a decision they make on their own to conceal the truth? I am certainly more understanding of why Jack devolves into an alcoholic, drug-popping mess and Hurley ends up in an asylum.

Why is Jack avoiding Aaron? Well, we know that Claire and Jack have a father in common. Or at least it appeared that way in the Claire-centric flashback (I am learning to take nothing for granted in the Lost universe.) But Jack has not yet learned of his connection to Claire in island time. Does future Jack know that Claire is his sister? Based on Claire’s fierce maternal instincts, as well as the warning she had previously received from the psychic, it is difficult to believe she would have willingly handed Aaron over while remaining behind on the island. So does Claire die? And if so, does Jack learn his connection to her at some point? And if he does, is Jack’s reluctance coming from his grief over Claire or guilt that he couldn’t help her or both? As I type this, my head is reeling from all the possible places the story could be going. It is why I say over and over again, I love this show.

Some other fun/interesting tidbits from tonight:
—Josh Holloway's scrumptious Sawyer, shirtless in multiple scenes (always a welcome sight), flirting with Kate and back to calling her Freckles.
—Locke, in response to Ben saying he had already read the book he selected: "You might catch something you missed the second time around." (It might just be me, but I felt like it was a wink to the fans to keep looking for clues.)
—Hurley getting “Scooby Doo’d” by Kate.
—Hurley and Sawyer as the next generation Odd Couple
—Jin, on the beach with Sun, explaining why he learned English
—Box o’wine and Xanadu? This island truly is a paradise!

This season will have 13 episodes with the last 35 appearing in S5/6, meaning that there won't be any episodes cut out of the planned 48.

Show of hands here - who said Claire's name outloud, the second you heard Kate say Aaron's name?

Someone has a topic going around on IMDB's Lost board, asking members why everyone thinks Claire dies now......has that person not been paying attention?!!! Claire made a wonderful mother, better than she ever thought possible. Something terrible happens to sweet, wonderful Claire. And it makes my heart ache.

It just does - sorry, I know it's just a show, as someone close to me pointed out (daughter, LOL) but it's my favorite show and replaced a very beloved show of mine, in terms of devotion. I will watch this show to the very end!

I love LOST!
