Quick and Dirty: Everybody Loves Hugo

So here is the simple version

Off the Island:
  • We are experiencing Hurley's "alternate"
  • He is a successful benefactor and chain owner of a fried chicken restaurant
  • On a blind date, he runs into Libby, she isn't his blind date btw, who tells him she knows him from somewhere and asks if 1) he believes in soul mates 2) if he remembers her
  • He doesn't remember her, but he is taken by her and when he sees her pulling off in a mental health van he is probably thinking "just my luck"
  • He runs into Desmond, and we know from the last episode(and last blog) what he is up to"Were you on flight 815"
  • He tells Desmond about Libby and Desmond infers that this is his "soulmate" who will help him become enlightened as he had, so he tells Hugo to go after her.
  • He does, they have the first date they never had on the island and when Libby kisses\ him he starts seeing the stuff she, Desmond, Charlie, and Daniel Faraday are already in tune to: Their lives on the Island. I wonder however where hers ends, seeing as she died on the island. I guess I could wonder that about Charlie and Daniel as well.
  • Desmond runs over John Locke with his car: We can assume he was trying to help him "see" with a near death experience, but this is one of those cliffhangers Lost is famous for.

On the island:
  • While visiting Libby's grave, Hurley sees Michael who tells him he has to stop everyone from going to blow up the plane or they are going to die.
  • Side note: Michael's best line on Lost "WAAAALLLLLTTT!!!" haha.
  • Anyway, Michael also tells Hurley that "people are listening to you now." He must be important.
  • Hurley warns Illana, but she is set on blowing it up because that is what she has been trained her entire life for.
  • Illana has the dynamite from the "Black Rock" and does not head Hurley's warning about "that stuff [being] unstable." So when she drops the bag on the ground, she blows up.
  • Richard wants more dynamite, Hurley says no way and blows up the Black Rock.
  • Miles says something very intuitive "Do you always just listen to what these dead people tell you to do" It got me thinking...I KNOW RIGHT?
  • Richard splits the group (The Blowerupers and The Hurleyians)
  • The Blowerupers (Richard, Miles, Ben Linus) are going to get grenade and other explosives to get ride of that plane once and for all
  • The Hurleyians (Jack, Lapidus, an aphasic Sun, and of course Hurley) are blindly following Hurley to do...what ever the hell he says. In this instance, going to "talk" to Not Locke.
  • Sayid returns to Not Locke's camp, leaving Desmond tied to a tree in the woods
  • Desmond meets Not Locke who takes him on a walk to find out why Widmore brought him to the island.
  • Not Locke tells him Widmore is interested in power, and asks Desmond why he isn't afraid.
  • Desmond says "Whats the point of being afraid"
  • He gets pushed into a well by Not Locke
  • Hurley tells Jack he didn't really see Jacob (who supposedly told him to talk to Locke) but Jack already knows
  • The Hurleyians all meet to talk with Not Locke.


Interesting things:
  • Ben said "No sooner did she tell you who you are than she blows up. The Island was done with her" Interesting. He also says "Makes you think what will happen to you when the island is through with you" Yes, it does. Thats worth pondering. Reading interviews with cast tell me that a lot of main characters are getting killed, I wonder who is next.
  • I think I saw Hurley with the Adam and Eve stones from season 1, which means 1) They are on the move 2) We can find out who Adam and Eve are 3) Adam might be Hurley
  • Michael tells Hurley the whispers in the forest are people who cannot leave the island. He is one of them. Michael cannot leave because of what he did (Killing Libby and Ana Lucia?)


Finally, I will be reviewing Glee probably later tonight.
Because Lost and Glee interrupted each others time spaces, I just finished watching Lost and am loading Glee on a (illegal) website right now.
Look forward to that.
Sorry this was so short.

Im interested in Adam and Eve theories.
Drop a line.
