I hope I do this right.
First new episode in a while. The term is often used to describe stories where the heros are in a hopless situation until some outside force miraculously (often out of nowhere) solves the problem.

Yeay!
Maybe there really IS a god in a box this time.
Which, for this show, could mean just about any-freaking-thing. 
Or inside a hatch…
New Lost! I’m giddy!
It’s on!
Discussion now commences.
“The Island will tell us what to do.”
Trebuchet!! Do we all have to drink?
Woo-hoo! It’s all clear!
John Locke is the Son of God.
Or his mom is a nutjob.
Well, THAT was a weird dream…
If you knew Swoozie, like I know Swoozie…
The Immaculate Conception!
The hatch is looking more like a capsule of sorts. Perhaps the box for the gods?
Locke’s dream contains clues, but wtf do they mean?
Not on the West Coast. Be back later.
Kate: “Hey Sawyer, wanna do it?”
Sawyer: “Not now… I’ve got a headache…”
(okay, that didn’t really happen, but it should have… ;))
Hence the warning. Don’t want to spoil things.
Dad is that smarmy guy! (Name?)
Theresa falls up the stairs, Theresa falls down the stairs. Yep, the Island is providing information to Locke somehow.
BTW, we see Jack shaving.
Funny that Boone still calls Shannon his sister even tho he’s known her biblicly.
Millipede in the eye socket was a neat touch.
On the edge of my couch, biting my nails this whole episode…
I sense a hunting accident coming up.
Smarmy guy? That’s Roy from “Emergency!” Heckuva guy to have as a dad… But where is Randolph Mantooth?
Good ep so far… I’m glad that supernatural events in this show have a rational explanation… Locke in the previews talks about the island taking away his gift… But that gash in his leg sure looks painful!
EZ
That’d be Kevin Tighe playing the be-haired Locke’s father.
“He needs glasses”. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!
“Do I get a lollipop?”
So, I wonder if dad was setting him up – trying to trick him into offering a kidney.
Uh oh – could Locke’s Mom have set him up to give dad a Kidney?
Something bad is going to happen (or has happened) to our island shaman…
