Lost: Homecoming
Feb. 9th, 2005 07:01 pmWhile this in no way compares to
cleolinda's recaps, TAR hooked me on giving my impressions as the show airs.
Okay, we open with a closeup on Charlie. Not an EyeOpener, but close. Does this mean that this will be a Charlie-flashback ep?
Man, Claire looks bad! Kudos to the makeup artists.
Locke looks more interested than concerned. Creepy man.
So Claire is still pregnant. This would make her what? Two weeks overdue? Considering the stresses she's been under, I'm not buying it.
Yeeeeah. Jin suspects that Sun knows English.
::snerk:: The psuedo-LOTR music in the background of this touching Claire/Charlie scene just kills me.
Okay, so this is a Charlie episode. It looks like we're covering the period between the breakup of Driveshaft and Charlie going to Australia.
And we're back on the symbolic Beach of Doom. And can we please stop with the swivel-cam? It's making me mildly nauseous.
Oh shit! Did Ethan just kill Jin? God, but Ethan's strong. And I bet that Charlie's not enjoying his second strangulation any more than the first.
Gods. I understand both Jack's and Locke's viewpoints. I have no idea which to agree with though.
Poor Jin. He's the only person on the island who's completely removed from the drama, and yet he's still paying for it.
Oh, Charlie! Petty thievery?
Why does he want her back? Because Claire is the only one who is definitely fertile. I'm guessing that something about the island prevents new pregnancies.
::sigh:: Does no-one realize how easy it would be to disable the old tin-can-on-string alarms?
Charlie's been needing to get that off his chest for a while, hasn't he? Liam's still a wanker.
Fear Boone and his Stick of Whacking +1!! And what odds will you give me that Boone's dreaming again?
Boone could not be more incompetent if he tried. And Vincent the Doomrador returns!
Poor Scott, interchangeable 'til the end.
Hey! Extras! I forgot that there was anyone else left from the crash besides the main characters!
I don't think Shannon was being a Snickerbitch here. Claire really should've been told before this, and Shannon just drew the short straw by circumstance.
No, Charlie, no! You look so nice in your Real Job Suit, don't screw this up!
Locke looks way too smug. And why am I not surprised that he's a crack-shot. Also: great idea there, Jack: giving the creepiest man on the island, who's building his own little cult by the way, one of the guns.
I really hate that they're seriously considering using Claire as bait. Even if she agrees to it, it seems so callous.
Why yes! I find someone violently suffering heroin withdrawal to be hilarious! Show me more, please!
I'm surprised that everyone forgot about the Marshal's gun. I guess because there was no ammo, no-one cared.
Charlie's going to do something stupid and/or heroic, isn't he?
And the Ominous Clouds of Imminent Doom sweep up to the island.
If I were Ethan, I'd be expecting an ambush. I bet he's got backup.
Catfight! Catfight! And didn't Ethan totally lay the whup-ass on Jack last time? What happened to make this different?
Yup. Stupid and/or heroic. Plus, he just lost Claire.
Ah, the symbolic Dawning Rays of New Beginnings!
And we see why Charlie is so over-protective of Claire. Sometimes I wish they didn't make the motivations so bloody obvious.
The Sayid/Shannon ship seems to be sailing smoothly.
PEANUT BUTTER!!
So, despite a rocky storm, the good ship CharileLovesClaire enters smoother waters.
Not another Jack/Sawyer/Kate love triangle episode again! I am so very tired of this high-school bullshit.
