OK, so I’m still trying to process what happened last night. Is it still “whatever happened, happened”? Or did Farraday / Jack’s hair brained H-bomb plan induce a time-rebooting paradox that will change the course of history? And what to make of the revelation that Locke wasn’t really Locke but some nameless bad dude locked in an eternal struggle with Jacob over the notion of destiny vs. free will? And is Jacob really dead? What about Jack, Kate, Sawyer, etc? Where and when will we see them next? Great cliffhanger…

Like I said, still working all of that out. I’ll have a full fledged recap late this afternoon / early evening. Until then, the first page of Doc Jensen’s recap over at EW is well worth the read. I especially like his theory that whatever happened last night hinged upon the decision of Juliet “I changed my mind” Burke, the most important human variable in this season long equation. Feel free to leave your comments here, and I’ll have a full recap later today.
