Analysis of Epilogue, "The New Man in Charge"

Wow. It's been a while since I've done this. I'm a little rusty. I've been writing a post about the Finale, "The End" and my thoughts on the entire series, and the aftermath of everything for a few months now, but I still haven't even come close to finishing all of my thoughts and theories on the whole matter, so that's going to have to wait for bit. So, before I finished doing all of that, I figured I'd brush up on some LOST because I've been thinking about it again a lot lately.

I haven't bought the LOST Season Six DVD Set as of yet, and I have the first Five Seasons already, so I'll be holding off from buying the LOST Complete Collection Box Set for at least a little while, but I had a chance to watch  the 12-Minute Epilogue, titled "The New Man in Charge," online a few weeks ago when it was leaked, and now that the DVD has finally come out, I figured I'd do some writing about it. This is the last new footage that I will probably ever write about LOST, so that's kind of sad. Well, that is unless they come out with something new, which I could see ABC/Disney doing, so maybe that's a lie. 

After I finish this, and my post about the Finale and everything else, I'm going to be dong a re-watch of Season Six, in the same style that I've done Seasons before, and then a re-watch and analysis of the entire Series, which will be different than everything else I've done. I plan to focus on analyzing each episode with the knowledge of having watched the entire Series, which should be interesting and a lot of fun. I really want to go back and reflect on everything, because I feel like then, and only then, will this entire experience come to an end. But, let's be realistic, this whole thing is never going to be over for me. I'm going to be watching and thinking about LOST for the rest of my damn life, so deal with it. It comes with the territory now.

Series Finale, Initial Reaction to "The End"

It has taken me a long time to finally complete this post. I swear to Duct Tape that I literally spent at least 80 hours working on this damn post. Between taking notes from watching the episode, to typing them all out, to organizing all my thoughts in a coherent manner.. It has taken forever. But, I enjoyed it all. Working on this has really helped me to explore and understand the entire episode and how I felt about it.

I hesitate to say that it was everything that I'd hoped it would be, because really, I went into this entire season with a completely open mind, and was just allowing myself to fully enjoy it. With that being said, I could not have imagined "The End" being any better than what it was. The entire episode felt like an homage, a tribute, a love-letter even, to the fans of the show. It was a masterpiece. I had been anticipating this for years, since they announced that LOST would end in 2010, and, in my opinion, they delivered. It was thoughtful. It was heartfelt. It was touching. It made me realize that the past six years of my life were truly a great experience. It made me want to go back and watch the whole damn thing all over again. I fucking loved it. But, I also can understand why some people didn't like it. So, let's discuss all of that, and everything in between, shall we?

This is going to be a long one. Bear with me.

Initial Reaction to "Dr. Linus"

Dr. Linus is a doctor? Didn't see that one coming! This episode was pretty awesome, though not as high-paced as I had anticipated. It was a very strong character episode, regardless of the pacing. Well, until the last two seconds when everything is all well and nice and everyone's hugging, and then the cheeriness is all blown to hell when Charles Widmore shows up to the party. Dude always has to ruin everything that's fun. Will he go on a baby killing tour around the island? Well, considering there are no longer any babies on the island at the moment... maybe he'll re-kill Claire's squirrel baby. That thing is the only thing that's more of a mood-killer than Widmore. But, I guess we'll only find out what his deal is in the weeks to come (Though probably not next week because they always like to do that to us. Grrrrr!). Enough chatter, let's get into it, Dr. Linus...

Initial Reaction to "The Substitute"

This was a great episode. It had great story. It had mythology. It had John Locke! This was far better than last week's episode. Again, I still don't think last week's episode was bad by any means, though a whole lot slower, with a lot less dense mythology. It appears as though they're following the format of the episode-centrics from Season One, which is very interesting. Overall, I'm really enjoyed this episode a lot, and would so as far to say that it's my favorite this season so far, although, obviously, there's not much to choose from. I took A LOT of notes on this episode, so let's get into it.

Locke "It was the only way to get you back to the Island, along with as many of those who left as possible. You do remember, John--that's why you left in the first place, to convince them to come back? But you failed. And the only way to bring them together was by your death, and you understood that. It's why you were about to kill yourself when I stopped you." Ben "If all I had to do was die, Ben, they why did you stop me?" Locke "You had critical information that would've died with you. And once you'd given it to me... well, I just didn't have time to talk you back into hanging yourself. So, I took a shortcut. And look at you, John. I was right. You're here. You're back. So are the rest of them. I don't know where yet exactly, but they came. It worked. And that's why I did it, because it was in the best interests of the Island." Ben

From Lostpedia
  29. "You left the Island regularly. You had a daughter with an outsider. You broke the rules, Charles." Ben "And what makes you think you deserve to take what's mine?" Widmore "Because I won't be selfish. Because I'll sacrifice anything to protect this Island." Ben "You wouldn't sacrifice Alex." Widmore "You're the one who wanted her dead, Charles, not the Island." Ben "I hope you're right, Benjamin, because if you aren't, and it is the Island that wants her dead, she'll be dead. And one day, you'll be standing where I'm standing now.

  31. "So you knew this would happen to Locke if we brought him back here?" Sun "Sun, I had no idea it would happen. I've seen this Island do miraculous things. I've seen it heal the sick, but never once has it done anything like this. Dead is dead. You don't get to come back from that, not even here. So the fact that John Locke is walking around this Island... scares the living hell out of me." Ben
  32. "Well, if it's not gonna come to us, then... I suppose we'll have to go to it." Locke "It doesn't work that way. I only know how to summon it. I don't know where it actually is." Ben "I do." Locke

From Lostpedia
  36. "The Island won't let you come back, trust me. I've spent almost 20 years trying to return." Widmore "Well, Charles, where you failed, I'm going to succeed... just as soon as I do one thing."

  37. Walking through jungle, Ben says may I ask you question, Locke says shoot, Ben says how is it that you know where you're going, Locke says that he just does, Ben asks how does that work exactly, the knowing, did it come upon gradually, or did he wake up one morning suddenly understanding the mysteries of the universe, Locke asks he doesn't like this, does he, Ben says what, Locke says having to ask questions that he doesn't know the answer to, blindly following someone in the hopes that they'll lead you to whatever you're looking for, Ben says no, he doesn't like it at all, Locke says well, now he knows what it was like to be him, Sun says they should keep moving, Locke says yes they should, Ben says thinks he knows where they're going now, it's the same place they brought him as a child, it's where the island healed him, Locke says well, let's hope it's as generous this time around, they arrive at The Temple, Sun asks what is it, Ben says it's the wall around their Temple, Ben says about a half mile from here, they built this wall to keep people like the two of them from ever seeing it, Ben goes to go inside, Locke says they're not going into their Temple, they're going under it, Ben is surprised, Locke says after you, Ben tells Sun that he needs to ask a favor of her, says if she can ever get off this island, to find Desmond Hume for him, tell him he said he was sorry, Sun asks sorry for what, Ben says he'll know, goes into The Temple. From Lostpedia
  38. "May I ask you a question, John?" Ben "Shoot." Locke "How is it that you know where you're going?" Ben "I just know." Locke "I mean, how does that work, exactly?" Ben "How does what work?" Locke "The knowing. I mean, did it come upon you gradually, or did you wake up one morning suddenly understanding the mysteries of the universe?" Ben "You don't like this, do you?" Locke "What?" Ben "Having to ask questions that you don't know the answers to, blindly following someone in the hopes that they'll lead you to whatever it is you're looking for." Locke "No, John, I don't like it at all." Ben "Well, now you know what it was like to be me." Locke
  39. "I think I know where we're going now, John. It's the same place they brought me as a child. It's where the Island healed me. About a half mile from here. We built this wall to keep people like the two of you from ever seeing it." Ben

From Lostpedia
  16. "What the hell are you doing, Tubby?" Miles "Checking to see if I'm disappearing." Hurley "What?" Miles "Back to the Future, man. We came back in time to the island and changed stuff. So if little Ben dies, he'll never grow up to be big Ben, who's the one who made us come back here in the first place. Which means we can't be here. And therefore, dude? We don't exist." Hurley "You're an idiot." Miles "Am I?" Hurley "Yeah. It doesn't work like that. You can't change anything. Your maniac Iraqi buddy shot Linus. That is what always happened. It's just...we never experienced how it all turns out." Miles "This is really confusing." Hurley "Yeah, well, get used to it. But, the good news is that Linus didn't die, so that means the kid can't either. He'll be fine." Miles "Didn't look like he was gonna be fine. What if you're wrong?"

And then you're gonna come in and you're gonna beg me to operate on him because he's threatening to murder Sawyer. I've already done this once. [scoffs] I've already saved Benjamin Linus, and I did it for you, Kate. I don't need to do it again." Jack "This is our fault. We brought Sayid back. We caused this." Kate "You know, when we were here before, I spent all of my time trying to fix things. But...did you ever think that maybe the island just wants to fix things itself?

  25. "Let me get this straight. [Miles is pacing.] All this already happened." Hurley "Yes." Miles "So, this conversation we're having right now...we already had it." Hurley "[Claps his hands] Yes!" Miles "Then what am I gonna say next?" Hurley "I don't know. [Shakes his head.]" Miles "Ha'! Then your theory is wrong!" Hurley "For the thousandth time, you dingbat, the conversation already happened, but not for you and me. For you and me, it's happening right now." Miles "Okay, answer me this. If all this already happened to me, then...why don't I remember any of it?" Hurley "Because, once Ben turned that wheel, time isn't a straight line for us anymore. Our experiences in the past and the future occurred before these experiences right now." Miles "Say that again." Hurley "[Pauses in exasperation and pulls out his gun and holds it out for Hurley to take.] Shoot me. Please. Please!" Miles "Aha! I can't shoot you. Because if you die in 1977, then you'll never come back to the island on the freighter 30 years from now." Hurley "I can die because I've already come to the island on the freighter. Any of us can die because this is our present." Miles "But you said Ben couldn't die because he still has to grow up and become the leader of the Others." Hurley "Because this is his past." Miles "But, when we first captured Ben, and Sayid, like, tortured him, then why wouldn't he remember getting shot by that same guy when he was a kid?" Hurley "[Miles blinks and looks around.
