Lost, Season 5: Episodes 1-3

:
In 2009, Peter watched through the first five seasons of Lost for the first time, live-tweeting all thoughts as he had them. Nicknames were created, awards were invented and dispensed, and predictions were made. If you’ve never seen Lost (or even if it’s been a while), these may not make much sense.

[[Season 1 notes]]
Peter:
Staying with my parents; they’re watching (at my recommendation) Lost for the first time.
Peter:
Watching season 1 episode 2, laughing at various reveals.
Peter:
Sawyer’s hair is really short. That does not make any sense, continuity-wise.
Peter:
Walt’s reading the comic everyone tells me is important.
Peter:
The Australian hostess from the “crashbacks” – she’s still in the show, 4 seasons on! Crazy.
Peter:
Most of these characters aren’t. (they die)
Peter:
Characters in this episode who are dead by the part I’m up to:
Peter:
Shannon,
Peter:
Boom,
Peter:
Locke,
Peter:
Charlie.
Peter:
That literally only leaves 4 or 5 characters.
Peter:
[[Episode 1]]
Peter:
Okay, several months later, finally moving on to season 5!
Peter:
The internet’s actually down while I watch this, so I’m liveblogging into notepad.
Peter:
(This will help ensure my posts don’t get eaten.)
Peter:
There’s another “Lost in 8 minutes” on this DVD – “Lost: Starters Kit”
Peter:
His name is definitely Richard. I wonder why he doesn’t age.
Peter:
Theory: He is one of the aliens.
Peter:
That theory expanded: my current theory is that the Island is a spaceship, which is why there’s a time-changing wheel inside it.
Peter:
I love the Penny’s Dad/Benry fight.
Peter:
It may be my favourite part of this show.
Peter:
That’s really saying something, as there’s a lot of great stuff.
Peter:
Watching this with my family, who have seen exactly as much as me, so their commentary will be included as well.
Peter:
I’m typing, they’re speculating out loud.
Peter:
Sawyer is such a great character.
Peter:
Really obvious prediction: Jin and Michael are alive.
Xander:
But he’s served his purpose!
Peter:
Another obvious prediction: Locke will come back to life.
Peter:
I believe in the power of the Island!
Peter:
Benry: “I can’t come back to the Island.”
Peter:
Truth, or lie? My prediction: – lie.
Peter:
They’re doing the “let’s show a character without showing their face.” opener, a classic season starter.
Peter:
My prediction: Jack or Penny’s Dad.
Peter:
He’s shaving. Looks young. Oooh, looks like he’s part of Weirdtopia, and…Asian?
Peter:
Oh!!! It’s the guy who does all the orientation videos!
Mum:
The Dharma Guy.
Elizabeth:
“He always changes his name.”
Peter:
I’ve never noticed that before, to be honest.
Peter:
This guy seems to actually be in charge, not just an actor (which would have been my guess.)
Peter:
They’re going to “The Orchid”. It’s been so long since I saw this – I assume that’s the place with the flowers.
Peter:
Looks like this is the discovery of the wheel. Cool bananas.
Peter:
Haha, they’re going to blow stuff up!
Peter:
Oh.
Peter:
Older Asian Doctor: “No blowing stuff up.”
Peter:
Booooo.
Peter:
Worker: “We’re going to go back and kill Hitler?”
Peter:
Oh man, I wish. That would bump Lost up a notch on the cool scale.
Peter:
Guy with a beard!
Xander:
My guess is…Jack!
Peter:
Nah, it’s gotta be Richard!
Peter:
Oh, it’s the doctor whose name we can’t remember.
Mum:
Daniel
Peter:
Post-opener credits bit takes us back to the funeral parlour.
Peter:
Jack: “How did we get here? How did all this happen?”
Peter:
Looks like someone needs to watch the starter kit!
Peter:
Jack just shaved off his beard. Good, good move.
Mum:
Do you think Sayid’s sexy?
Peter:
After a brief discussion, we concluded that Sayid is the sexiest, then Sawyer.
Peter:
But no one likes Jack.
Peter:
I’m predicting that Benry can go back to the Island because that makes a lot more interesting narrative.
Peter:
This is fairly obvious, but I think the Island moved not in space, but in time. #obviousprediction
Peter:
We’ve gone back to 3 years earlier, the Island actually moving.
Peter:
Too much happened in S4. I blame the Writer’s Strike.
Peter:
“Patrick” (actually Richard) has joined my list of people who I call by an incorrect name, along with Benry and Turnip-head Ulrich.
Peter:
Perhaps just the people and the Island have moved to different times.
Peter:
i.e. the people have moved to a time before the camp was…oh, here comes Daniel to explain.
Peter:
Hoorah for Daniel!
Peter:
Wooo! I rock at prediction.
Peter:
Not particularly interested in the Kate/Ulrich storyline.
Peter:
Although men in suits has intrigued me.
Peter:
Kate is being called out for faking parentage.
Peter:
Kate: “Then come back with the sheriff.”
Peter:
Prediction: she won’t be there when he does.
Peter:
Yup, she’s packing and leaving.
Peter:
This kid could have a great career as the evil kid in horror films.
Mum:
I bet Jack ordered the blood test, to flush her out.
Peter:
Sawyer just slapped Faraday.
Elizabeth:
That’s so cute!
Peter:
Not everyone’s accounted for. Who’s missing?
Peter:
Oh, Locke.
Peter:
Prediction:
Peter:
Because he’s now an “Other”, and they’re tied to the island.
Peter:
Locke is getting planes thrown at him.
Peter:
OH! Awesome!! The Drug plane!!!
Peter:
Everyone else in the room was waiting for solid proof that it was the drug plane.
Peter:
It had to be: narratively it couldn’t be anything else.
Peter:
Holy crap, Ethan!! It’s Ethan, in the past!
Peter:
Wow, this is amazing and excellent. I am super happy with this.
Peter:
Locke was all scrunched up like a baby.
Peter:
Wuss. Get shot like a man, Locke!
Peter:
I was not at all happy with the time travelling story last season, but they’re doing it really well here.
Peter:
Suddenly a lot of stuff (the plane etc) has a purpose in the story, it’s narratively justified.
Peter:
Sun’s been locked into a room.
Peter:
I was all like “Teleport out of there, Sun!”
Peter:
Then I remembered that Sun doesn’t have superpowers.
Xander:
Sun wants to kill Ben, Ben wants to kill Penny…
Peter:
I’d forgotten about that.
Peter:
Hurley just got the first laugh from me this episode. (that I remember)
Peter:
“Maybe if you ate more comfort food, you wouldn’t go around shooting people”
Peter:
That’s right, forgot that Locke’s code name was Bentham.
Peter:
Hurley: “Wait, Ben’s on our side now?”
Peter:
Good question. My prediction: yes.
Peter:
He’s the mastermind behind this whole freaking show.
Peter:
Sayid just threw a man off a building.
Peter:
My family is fondly reminiscing about the time he broke someone’s neck with his legs.
Peter:
Woah, dishwasher death! Not too shabby.
Elizabeth:
Oh no, a syringe, a dart!
Elizabeth:
Come and save him, Hurley!
Elizabeth:
No, wait, he’s just faking!
Elizabeth:
Yay!
Peter:
Hurley standing there, looking cool with a gun.
Peter:
Dude took a photo with his mobile phone.
Peter:
Sayid: “Get me to the car!!”
Peter:
I wonder if there’s an outtake where he says “chopper” instead.
Peter:
Sure, Sawyer asked for a shirt, but secretly he’s enjoying being all hot and topless.
Peter:
These stupid characters are trying to change the past.
Peter:
Faraday knows that it’s impossible.
Peter:
Hell, EVERYONE should know that.
Peter:
Stupid characters.
Peter:
Stop telling everyone where all your secrets and knowledge are, Faraday!
Peter:
They can just stab your journal with a Basilisk fang and destroy you!
Peter:
Locke has found…a boat?
Peter:
What the crap is that?
Peter:
My sister is reading over my shoulder.
Elizabeth:
Isn’t that the plane?
Peter:
The rest of the room wasn’t sure what her outburst meant.
Mum:
Maybe they’re about to set fire to the plane!
Peter:
I really want a Harry Potter 3 thing to happen, where they have to avoid their past selves
Peter:
It’s Richard(/Patrick)!
Peter:
Questions I most want answered at this point:
Peter:
-what’s up with the Black Rock, the boat in the middle of the Island?
Peter:
-What’s up with the four-toed statue?
Peter:
-What’s up with the numbers?
Peter:
My sister and mum are being grossed out by all the blood stuff, like removing a bullet.
Peter:
My mum’s a nurse, you’d think it wouldn’t bother her
Peter:
So this sort of nicely explains why Patrick never seems to age.
Peter:
“What’s this?”
Peter:
“It’s a compass!”
Peter:
“What’s it do?”
Peter:
“It points north.”
Peter:
They never dealt with the fact that on the Island, compasses don’t point north.
Peter:
My original theory: the black rock was a giant magnet.
Peter:
I’ve said this (many times) before, I’ll almost certainly say it again:
Peter:
I really, really hope that everything ties up brilliantly.
Peter:
Faraday keeps calling Sawyer “James”.
Peter:
Also “my friend”.
Peter:
He should not call him either of those things.
Peter:
Hot British Redhead is bleeding.
Peter:
Oh crap!!
Peter:
It’s that head exploding thing that happened to the ship doctor.
Peter:
Craaaap!
Peter:
My brother is unsuccessfully trying to find plot-holes in the time travel theory.
Peter:
Oh, that’s right.
Peter:
When Desmond knew Faraday in the past, he had future consciousness…man.
Peter:
Trippy.
Peter:
Yay! Desmond! Was worried that he’d been written out.
Peter:
This show reminds me a bit of Animorphs;
Peter:
Crayak to the Ellimist: “You stacked the deck.”
Peter:
If you don’t know Animorphs, that quote might not mean anything to you, but it was a line that sort of changed the way I think about writing
Peter:
Episode end!
Peter:
Most likeable: Faraday, or maybe Sayid. Or Hurley.
Peter:
Least likeable: Sawyer. Grumpy, but (on the plus side) shirtless.
Peter:
Most intriguing: Desmond
Peter:
[[Episode 2]]
Peter:
“3 years ago.” From where??
Peter:
We’re time-travelling, you can’t say “ago” without giving us some kind of basic time-frame.
Peter:
Oh, right. This is them leaving the Island.
Peter:
My brother (correctly) guessed that headless guy was the pilot.
Peter:
Btw, anyone playing at home: I don’t have to give out a Locke Award, because while Locke is technically dead, he’s still a major character.
Peter:
Prediction: The Eko/his brother with the plane connection has no bearing on the overall story.
Peter:
Hurley’s all like “I won’t help you.”
Elizabeth:
Oh, he doesn’t mean it.
Xander:
Then why did they show it to us?
Peter:
Seems that narrative structure analysis runs in the family.
Peter:
Oh man, Hurley has about as much luck on the roads as Ted Bundy did.
Peter:
Prediction: The cop will be Anna-Lucia.
Peter:
Oh, wow! Hurley is time-trav…wait, no. Advisory hallucination.
Peter:
“Libby says hi.”
Elizabeth:
Aawwwww!
Peter:
Best possible disguise for Hurley?
Peter:
A freaking haircut. That would make all the difference.
Peter:
It could save his neck.
Peter:
I hate it when they introduce new extras like they’re meant to have been there all along.
Peter:
Oh! Neil is the frogurt guy.
Peter:
Okay, well played.
Peter:
Ha! Sawyer just nicknamed Faraday “Dr Wizard.”
Peter:
Ah, dark glasses on the unconscious guy. Classic.
Peter:
Cute girl at the counter.
Peter:
Funny, too: “It looks like you heart them.”
Peter:
She should have her own spin-off series.
Peter:
Now that I’ve thought it for more than 2 seconds, it doesn’t make sense for the Oceanic 6 to be time-travelling at the “same time”
Peter:
It’s NOT the same time, it’s years later.
Peter:
Kate has a bubbly phone voice. Even though she’s stressed, a very upbeat “Hello?”
Peter:
Great, another mystery. Who’s Kate talking to?
Peter:
My guess: Locke.
Peter:
No, wait, Locke’s dead.
Peter:
We’ve pinpointed where Kate is in time because she crossed paths with Hurley, who Jack saw on the news at etc etc…
Peter:
The only time Lost has cheated with that whole “flashbacks from two different times arranged to look like one time” is that Sun/Jin moment.
Peter:
Benry: “You’re never coming back to this life.”
Peter:
NEVER TRUST ANYTHING HE SAYS HE LIES QUITE A LOT YOU SEE
Peter:
Just realised, I’ve never even expressed this as a mystery:
Peter:
-Why Jack etc were needed on/by the Island in the first place.
Peter:
I’d have assumed Jack’s purpose was Benry’s spinal tumour, but that was another Benry claim, and HE LIES.
Peter:
Ha! Hurley’s father is watching Expose.
Peter:
Cleverrrr.
Peter:
So much history, they can reference it all at will these days (like with the frogurt guy)
Xander:
 Don’t risk a look through the window!!
Peter:
My 13 year-old brother is smarter than Hurley.
Peter:
Hurley’s Dad: “We need a doctor.”
Peter:
My entire family: “Jack’s a doctor!!!!”
Peter:
Room 108.
Peter:
My little brother pointed out to me that “the numbers” add up to 108.
Peter:
I did not know that!
Peter:
This butcher is called Jill.
Peter:
Should she be familiar? ‘Cos she’s not.
Peter:
Benry’s defending Jack. Awwwww.
Peter:
I’m going to be honest:
Peter:
I’m always reluctant to feel real danger for the main character ‘cos they’re the main character, and unlikely to die
Peter:
On Lost, that reluctance is compounded by the fact that the Island steers destiny, and it’s been openly said that it won’t let people die…
Peter:
Neil reminds me of Steve Buscemi.
Peter:
Charlotte is dying, dying, dying.
Peter:
She seems to also be losing her memory. Weird.
Xander:
“She’s fading out of existence!”
Peter:
Frogurt: “It’s Neil!!”
Peter:
No, Neil. It’s Frogurt.
Peter:
Holy crap, Frogurt just burst into flames.
Peter:
No, wait. They’re having flaming arrows fired at them.
Peter:
By…the others? The future-others?
Peter:
Or are we in the past now?
Elizabeth:
 Oh Frogurt. You were destined to die.
Peter:
It’s true; extras are very rarely given speaking lines except to establish them as characters so we care a little when they die.
Peter:
Extras given a line might as well don red shirts.
Peter:
These flaming arrows are pretty freaking effective.
Peter:
Hurley’s Dad: “They think you’re crazy enough to come back home!”
Peter:
He didn’t even need to say the rest, we filled it in ourselves.
Peter:
Hurley: “Everything’s going to make sense, I promise!”
Peter:
It’d freaking better, Hurley.
Peter:
Google autofill coming up with “Why is there a dead Pakistani on my couch?” makes SO MUCH more sense now.
Peter:
Sun: “Are you okay?”
Peter:
Kate: “I’m fine.”
Peter:
Sun: “Are you?”
Peter:
Jesus, Sun, lay off.
Peter:
So Sun has clearly taken a side in the Benry/Whitmore war.
Peter:
I’ve taken a side as well, and it’s not Sun’s.
Peter:
Oh burn. Sun is blaming Kate for Jin’s death.
Peter:
Sun, your husband’s not dead.
Peter:
We’ve not even seen anything vaguely similar to a body yet.
Peter:
Sun: “I don’t blame you!”
Peter:
Never forget, Kate – aside from Benry, Sun is the most duplicitous character on this show.
Peter:
By FAR.
Peter:
Aww, Hurley’s Dad is being all “stay away from my son, Dr Shepherd!”.
Peter:
It’s cute.
Peter:
I love Benry’s face.
Peter:
The poor actor is going to be typecast for life, but he’s so brilliant in this show.
Peter:
Hurley: “He’s got this secret life where he does ninja moves.”
Peter:
If I’m ever on a Lost-style show, I want to be the Hurley character. Comic relief, still integral to the plot.
Peter:
Charlie was comic relief as well, but he was slightly too dark and got killed off.
Peter:
Drug past and all that.
Peter:
Hurley’s nothing but wacky fun.
Xander:
 Hurley’s mum is a spy, isn’t she?
Peter:
I’m going to be honest, I’ll be impressed if she is.
Peter:
More likely: she thinks Hurley’s crazy.
Peter:
This is Lost making fun of its own convoluted plotline.
Peter:
As my mum said, “It all makes sense when you see it happen, but sounds way too melodramatic when it’s all said at once.”
Peter:
Hurley’s mum: “I believe you.”
Peter:
No way, my prediction: she’s lulling him before she calls the nuthouse.
Peter:
My mum’s a psychiatric nurse:
Mum:
I’d give Hurley his psych pills the second he started going on with any of this…
Peter:
Sawyer stepped on…is that a dart? What the crap did he step on?
Xander:
Sawyer might meet Crazy Danielle’s group!!
Peter:
THAT would be cool.
Peter:
He said her real name, which I don’t remember, so I abbreviated it to “Crazy Danielle”.
Xander:
Oh! They might see the statue in full!
Elizabeth:
THAT would be cool!
Peter:
They’ve found a guy called Jones.
Peter:
Dharma?
Peter:
I’m holding out for my brother’s theory, the French group who Crazy Danielle shot.
Peter:
On Lost, you’ve always been able to get employment after your character dies, through flashbacks and hallucinations.
Peter:
Now: time travel as well!
Peter:
Sayid nearly strangled Jack.
Peter:
I would LOVE to see Sayid go up against Brock Sampson in a fight.
Peter:
Holy crap that would be so amazing.
Peter:
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a shot from inside a microwave before.
Peter:
Hurley threw his pie in self-defense. Hilarious!!
Peter:
Wait, has Sayid turned against Benry?
Peter:
Sayid and Sun vs Jack and Lock.
Peter:
People-starting-with-S vs 4-letter-names-ending-with-ck. (if you misspell Locke)
Peter:
I’ve seen enough of the story to trust Benry, and even I don’t trust him.
Peter:
He’s so delightfully despicable.
Peter:
I think it’s because he’s trying to be nice.
Peter:
Whenever he’s trying to be nice, you can’t trust him.
Peter:
When he’s stressed and barking orders, THAT’s when you trust him.
Peter:
Sawyer and Juliet are…HOLY CRAP THEY’RE GOING TO CUT OFF HER HAND.
Peter:
Aw man, they didn’t do it!
Peter:
Going to be honest; would have loved to have seen that.
Peter:
That would have been great, somehow.
Peter:
Locke just saved Juliet’s hand.
Peter:
My sister is crazy about Locke.
Peter:
She hasn’t been reading through my notes, she’s just independently fallen in love with him as much as I have.
Peter:
Man, Faraday’s science all looks so much cooler than most science does in movies and TV shows.
Peter:
Other writers, take notes from Lost: Research should look this cool.
Peter:
Benry’s hiding out in a church.
Peter:
Mum’s just confirmed my theory about Jill
Peter:
-it’s the lady from the shop, who said Desmond couldn’t buy a ring
Peter:
I say “confirmed”, she’s guessing as much as I am, but let’s face it, two people guessing the same character is pretty good.
Peter:
Episode end!
Peter:
Most likeable: Damn, almost put “Locke”. Forgot he was not allowed to win this one. I’ll give it to Hurley. Faraday close 2nd.
Peter:
Least likeable: Benry, though I do love to dislike him.
Peter:
Most intriguing: Jill!
Peter:
[[Episode 3]]
Peter:
“Previously on” shows Benry on the wheel.
Peter:
A bit of closure? Unlikely, but a man can dream.
Peter:
Oooh! Prediction: Jill is Faraday’s mother.
Peter:
We are watching a large number of Asian people gamble.
Peter:
Oooh, a Desmond episode.
Peter:
I like Desmond so much.
Peter:
He (Desmond) feels like such a late addition, but he was in there from the very beginning of season 2, longer than even Benry.
Peter:
Penny’s having a baby! A bay-bee!
Peter:
A baby! Tiny little Desmond!!
Peter:
Good thing they got this doctor in.
Peter:
(So far his entire input has been “Push! Push! Harder!”)
Peter:
My family have been watching Lost for a while, but they missed one disk – the one with the Group B episode. That is such a great episode.
Peter:
Still no word on why Libby was in the mental hospital.
Peter:
“Over there, you can’t see it, is an Island. A very special Island. An island I left a long time ago. And it’s called…Great Britain.”
Peter:
Ha!
Peter:
Going to side with Juliet here:
Peter:
“The creek” was a terrible meeting-place.
Peter:
It’s a long creek.
Peter:
Miles spotted the tripwire like 2 seconds too late.
Xander:
Oh, sure, the three with speaking parts survive.
Peter:
I love my brother.
Peter:
Faraday’s been recognised. From the past, or from the future?
Peter:
Another mystery we’ve still heard nothing about:
Peter:
Why Walt was special.
Peter:
Was he special like Locke is, or different kind of special?
Peter:
Desmond would also be a fun role.
Peter:
I’d prefer to play Hurley, but Desmond is just a really great character.
Peter:
Penelope: “Promise me you’ll never go back to that Island again.”
Peter:
Desmond cleverly doesn’t promise.
Peter:
Let’s face it, if the Island wants you, it’s not up to you.
Peter:
They’re sounding French! Go…oh, it’s Latin.
Peter:
Why the crap would Juliet speak…okay, they keep answering questions as I type.
Peter:
If I ever run a secret organisation on a time-travelling Island, yeah, I’ll pick Latin as my secret language.
Peter:
Oh wow, I’d completely forgotten about Miles’ ghost-hunting abilities.
Peter:
Hey! Richard is still leading the Others!!
Peter:
Locke will find him, give him the compass…god damn, this season is rocking my socks off.
Peter:
Time travel is really hard to do well.
Peter:
Lost failed at it last season, this season they’re knocking it out of the ballpark.
Peter:
La la la, lots of stuff is happening, but I’ve got no particularly interesting things to say about them.
Peter:
Hello Elizabeth I can see you reading this as I type.
Peter:
Every time I see him, I genuinely can’t remember whether his name is Richard Alpert or Patrick Alpert.
Peter:
They both sound right to me.
Peter:
Daniel: “I am in love with the woman sitting next to me.”
Peter:
Charlotte: *look of absolute shock*
Mum:
 He wants them to shoot Charlotte, so that she won’t die of what she’s dying of.
Peter:
That little bit of Latin sounded like “Fuckit”.
Peter:
Dude just broke Jones’ neck!
Peter:
Poor Jones. 🙁
Peter:
So Faraday put some girl into a constant state of time flux then ran off to the states.
Peter:
Mr Whitmore funded his research!!
Peter:
Wait, Faraday actually loves Charlotte?
Peter:
Was this foreshadowed and I forgot, or was this just shoe-horned in?
Peter:
(I’d assume foreshadowed but I genuinely have no memory of it. Also I will henceforth refer to it as “Charaday”)
Xander:
 I bet that Richard is Jacob.
Peter:
 I sincerely hope I’ve made that prediction before.
Peter:
I mean, I know I’ve predicted it, but I hope that I typed it up, that there was some kind of record of it.
Peter:
Because it’s extremely obvious.
Peter:
(No offense to Xander)
Peter:
Ha!!
Peter:
“Their leader is some old man. You think he can track us? You think he knows this island better than I do?”
Peter:
Oooh. Girl-with-gun = girl-put-into-coma?
Peter:
“You can’t expect me to believe that you, a British woman, and a Chinese man are all in the American government.”
Peter:
Oh, wow.
Peter:
Apparently we’re in the 1950s at this point. I had no idea.
Peter:
I missed a step there.
Peter:
Right, so, my prediction that she’s the girl in the coma is unlikely.
Peter:
Who else could she be? Faraday’s mother?
Peter:
Girl-with-gun does not like the idea of the time-travelling.
Peter:
She is angry.
Peter:
“Are they from the future too?”
Peter:
“You told her??”
Peter:
That’s hilarious, but I can’t work out why.
Peter:
I devote a lot of brain-power working out why things are funny, but this one escapes me.
Peter:
Desmond has just barged into Whitmore’s office and asked for information.
Peter:
Bold.
Peter:
Would never have occurred to me, but seems to be paying off.
Peter:
Faraday’s mother is, of course, in L.A.
Peter:
Ever since the show stopped being about the plane crash, they’ve really had to work to hit their planes-per-season quota.
Peter:
Seeing this episode (with the “next time you see me” stuff) is reminding me of The Time Traveller’s Wife.
Peter:
Another great time-travel piece.
Peter:
Great not only on its own merits, but because of how nicely and quickly it gets you used to the “rules” of time travel.
Peter:
Locke: “Jacob sent me.”
Peter:
To Ricktrick. (Richard/Patrick).
Peter:
Who I suspect of being Jacob. Hmmm.
Peter:
Theory: Jacob (now that we’ve introduced time-travel this is possible) is, like, Jack, or one of the other cast members of this show.
Peter:
Hey, cool!
Peter:
Dude with gun = Charles Whitmore.
Peter:
Time Travel makes everything tie together so nicely.
Peter:
Noooo!
Peter:
Desmond is all “It doesn’t matter any more!”
Peter:
You murderous (well not really but sort of) bastard!
Peter:
Man, I just fell into that trap that I always talk about, where inaction = murder.
Peter:
Desmond named his baby Charlie.
Peter:
My brother, sister and mother: “Awwwwww!”
Xander:
 Hang on…Charlie…he’s also named after his grandfather! Charles Whitmore!
Dad:
(walking in) What?? It’s 1954???
Mum:
Time travel.
Dad:
Oh, that’s right.
Peter:
Miles is all sad that no one cares how he is.
Peter:
Well, that’s what you get for being an arsehole.
Peter:
Charlotte’s all dying and stuff.
Peter:
Sucks to be her; also sucks to be the guy in love with her.
Peter:
Episode end!
Peter:
Most likeable: Desmond. I love Desmond so. Penelope is a close runner-up.
Peter:
Least likeable: Hmmm. Young Charles Whitmore.
Peter:
Most intriguing: Ricktrick by default, though no one was particularly intriguing that episode.
Peter:
My sister just read through my notes, and wanted to add something:
Elizabeth:
Charaday was right through the last season. Also I am smelly and ugly and no one likes me.
Elizabeth:
[[Running Tally: All seasons]]
Elizabeth:
