The Episode Raised by another scared me more than any other Lost Episode
In the beginning of Season 1 Episode 10, Claire wakes up in the jungle, Unpregnant and she's locke sitting at a table drawing cards and he says, ''You gave him away Claire, Now everyone pays the price now, Claire turns around and sees a crib empty and drenched with blood and then she wakes up screaming, and the second night she sees someone covering her mouth and stabs her pregnant belly, she then wakes up and screams the second time
To me this is the darkest lost episode I ever watched, because nothing is more disturbing than any scene involving an infant child being harmed, and I somewhat find this similar to the Dexter Episode Seeing red, where dexter relieves the memory of his mother being murdered in front of him as a child.

Providence and Killarney's Enigma .
Killarney Provincial Park on Georgian Bay's east coast can be an enigma. A park interpreter warned me years before of the unpredictable weather.
I had only paddled its waters when it was as smooth as a mirror. This August trip in 2008 appeared no different..
...until I paddled into Collins Inlet and dark ominous clouds slipped low under the existing cirrus layer at midday. Air pressure dropped.
The crescendo of artillery fire every 10 seconds could be heard in the distance. The winds picked up. I took to shore on an island. Rapidly I searched for a location to erect a tarp. I wavered back and forth between three different sites. The storm was now approaching quickly. I had less than four minutes to choose one. The sky became so dark I couldn't see without a flashlight.
When the winds hit it ripped the crown straight off a giant white pine tree catching it like a sail 20 m away. My tarp was tied to three cedars and a mature pine.
Rain and hail the size of golf balls struck my sandaled feet. The sky exploded with lightning bolts. My canoe hadn't been turned over and within 5 minutes overflowed with water.
This was no ordinary thunderstorm it was more like a tornado. I watched it strip all the lateral branches off the surrounding trees. The ground under my feet began to heave. The anchors to my tarp were trees now heaving under the wind. The thin soils caused the root systems to fan out. I could feel it moving beneath my feet. After an hour the roots ripped from the ground like giant hinges. Systematically one tree collapsed after another.
I was down to only two guy lines restraining the tarp. Holding it above my head to protect me from the hail the wind continued ripping branches that were flying left and center. The noise horrendous.
I calmed myself by the fact most of the trees around me had blown over. Strangely the white pine pressing against my shoulder stood stoically. The storm lasted three hours.
Eventually there was a slight calm. I assessed the damage. The crown of the tree adjacent to me had been hidden by the tarp. When I peered above the torn material I was shocked. The pine had snapped off 5 m above the ground. Instinctively, I turned around. The rest of the tree lay behind me one meter from the back of my cranium. The trunk was easily 24 inches in diameter.
The alternative candidate sites for my tarp didn't exist, only a tangle of tree trunks, branches and debris. If I had chosen them, I would be dead.
I took advantage of the break in weather loaded up my canoe and paddled into an adjacent bay. Here four large private tugboats were strapped together and anchored. The occupants had obviously caught wind of the approaching storm.
That evening the storm returned with a vengeance. The night was again full of thunder and lightning until dawn.
The next morning I paddled out through the channel. The trees on the adjacent slopes were stripped bare and reminiscent of a landscape exposed to the detonation of a hydrogen bomb. The steep embankments gushed brown water on both sides of the channel. This had been no ordinary storm.
We are aware we are subject to chance circumstances that can forever change our lives. This was a pivotal point in mine.
The continuation to this story will be written in a separate article ennoscriptd;

My problem with Locke
Hey all. I want to start by saying I love Locke as a character. Incredibly enjoying to watch. After lurking here for a bit, I understand he’s very much the fandom golden boy, I just wanted to get some opinions on some of his issues. For the first few seasons, he is kind of a villain. He is ready, and willing, to sacrifice anyone to get more answers. I interpret him crying after Boone’s death to not be about Boone, but his dissatisfaction with not getting answers. I understand why he is the way he is. I just think a lot of people give him too much of a pass. Season 3 and some of season 4 jump out to me as the place where he is the most desperate, and kind of an asshole.
I still love him, and understand him, I was just wondering how people feel about his worst moments, as they seem to be pretty easily forgiven by the fandom.

Okay so, just finished maybe my 5th or 6th rewatch and had an observation about Smokey(MAJOR CHARACTER DEATH SPOILERS)
So I've only every rewatched to spend time with the characters, never with a critical or even questioning lens.
But I was watching through again and smokey isn't allowed to kill candidates. But there are instances of him "judging" someone. Ie: Mr. Eko, Ben, etc.
So I was thinking, he must do this judgement to see if they can be manipulated and made to do evil on his behalf to further his goals.
That is why Ben lives, and he kills Mr. Eko. He knows Eko is a good man, and in his current state, how he is on the island, would never do something to disappoint his little brother.
Ben on the other hand gets a pass and lives because smokey knows that he is easily manipulated and has as much potential for evil as he does good.
Am I onto something or is this something yall picked up on the first go-round?? 😭

Juliet and Ben
Hi all, so I am on my 2nd rewatch and I am wondering why did Juliet agreed to spy on pregnant women for Ben when she was in the camp. The submarine was set on fire, it's known her sister is healthy and having a baby. Why did she agree? Is it the hope that he will let her go home or simply fear?

Question about Locke and Christian
Just watched the episode where Locke goes into the well to turn the donkey wheel.
And I realized while writing this that I may have already answered my own question.
Locke is down in the well and the island travels to pre-well, pre-Orchid times, sealing up.
Locke is down there... and so is MiB/Smokey in the form of Christian Shephard. Except Christian hasn't traveled to the island yet and MiB can't possibly know the information.
However, the frozen donkey wheel is already in place without a well which means the area is unstuck in time.
So, how is this? Is this just the "present day" MiB in the form of Christian also traveling through time with everyone?

Question for 2004/2005 live watchers {Deus Ex Machina}
I've seen the show many times. My absolute favorite, but I didn't start watching until season 5 was airing. I have a question about what viewers thought was going on at the time of the original broadcast.
Boone climbs into the beach craft and tries the radio. He says "mayday, we are the survivors of oceanic 815". He gets a response - what did viewers hear at the time? What did subnoscripts say?
I know Bernard is on the other end saying "WE'RE the survivors of oceanic 815" but it doesn't sound like that in this episode. And I don't trust modern Hulu/Netflix subnoscripts to reflect what may have been originally perceived as the response.
Thanks.
