Hey......I bet I can tell you where Frank Lapidius went with the helicopter. He took Omar, Kearny and the rest of the fun bunch back LOST island to play with high powered rifles. Frank is one of the few freighter people that seems reluctant on what they are doing. I guess it's possible that, as Ben would say, 'he's one of the good guys'.
 
 
Ahhh Chachi....our favorite star crossed lover and so full of teen angst. Aside from never knowing the joy of watching the Brady Bunch, you were too young to understand a few basic rules of life. One.....you were stealing Cinderella, as the song goes, and us fathers don't like being replaced. Of course, it doesn't help when the father your dealing with is slightly maniacal. A second rule of life, whenever you say out loud, "I have a bad feeling about this"......YOU ARE GONNA DIE DUMBASS!
 
 
So the questions are, did Ben send his daughter, baby-mamma, and future son-in-law out into the jungle to get rid of the two latter peeps? He obviously did not want Karl near his daughter, and I'm sure having Rousseau around was slightly uncomfortable, even if he wasn't making any child support payments. Both of these people did nothing to aid in endearing his daughter to him. And with them out of the way, and seeing that her dad was correct about the people on the freighter, he is set to swoop in and save her, possibly repairing their father daughter relationship. It was no accident that he made it a point to tell her what they might do if they found out she was Ben's daughter. (As a father of daughters, I think I need to start thinking like Ben........where's my rifle?)
 
 
Aside from the above mentioned foreboding line of Chachi's, another line that predicts your certain doom is any line where you profess your love before doing something dangerous. "Tell Walt I love him"....I thought Michael was going to buy it in this episode after I heard that. But then we get Rousseau's touching scene with her daughter......yep....it was obvious she wasn't going to make it.
 
 
Anyone have issues with ABC crapping out on them. It happened a few weeks in a row now. Last night it happened right when Tom was talking to Michael in the alley.
 
 
Star Wars reference of the day: When we first see Michael on the deck of the freighter, after Captain Kangaroo is beating up his men for their own protection, Michael has his hood up over his head…he’s on a mission of good to rescue his friends…..seems similar to me of when Luke knocked on Jabba’s door to rescue Han Solo in Return of the Jedi. We saw this with Charlie too, but with him, it was more likened to when Anaikan Skywalker was starting to cross over to the dark side. Of course Charlie did briefly, but then redeemed himself.

Star Wars reference #2:

"I have a bad feeling about this"........don't remember if it was Luke, Leia, or Solo that said it, but it was said in the first movie when they landed the Millennium Falcon in a crater on that asteroid, which turned out to not be a crater but the inside of some monster.

 Tom is gay…..BUT WE ALREADY KNEW THAT. Because remember, Kate wasn't his type......you would have to be friggin gay for her to not be your type. I am definitely not gay. Anyway, I don't think I can eat grapes for a while.
 
 
I heard “Kurt Vonnegut” uttered on the TV in the background noise of Michael’s rathole apartment. Slaughterhouse Five....time travel within your own life line.
 
 
Did you know that Harold Perrineau's wife has been in two episodes of LOST? She was the lottery girl and also slept with Sawyer. That's two cast members whose wives have appeared on the show. Michael Emerson's wife also appeared. She played young Ben's mom.
 
 
So Libby is haunting Michael in his dreams. I am an idiot. In regards to yesterdays musings of how she would play into last night's story, all I have to say is........duh! That was obvious, and I am an idiot.
 
 
So Sayid drops a dime on Michael, (which seemed out of character for him), possibly leading to Michael's death. After Sayid finds out that Michael was telling the truth, and knowing he was the cause of Michael's death, and possibly those on the island, does this become the hook that Ben uses to get Sayid to do his bidding?
 
 
Hey, was anyone else disappointed with Mis-Guided?
 
 
Remember, April 24th, 10:00 PM, right after that show with Doctors Sheppard and Burke.......wait, isn't that LOST?

Playing Cinderella
Riding her first bike
Bouncing on the bed and looking for a pillow fight
Running through the sprinkler with a big popsicle grin
Dancing with her dad, looking up at him
In her eyes i'm Prince Charming
But to him i'm just some fella riding in and stealing Cinderella
