Initial Reaction to "Recon"
Some loved it; some hated it. I was very entertained. Of course, there was some predictability and not a whole lot happened. I agree with that. When you invest yourself so thoroughly into a television show for six years, you get to know the people that create and write much better than you think. As much as we've (the fans) put ourselves into this show, they've invested way more than we can even imagine. The show, in a way, becomes a dialogue between the creators and the fans. We get to know eachother through the screen. I think we've become so accustomed to the craziness and confusion that is LOST that we almost try too hard to anticipate their every move at this point. In many ways, I think, especially in this final season, that they're trying to keep us on your toes, though in much subtler ways that they have before. Relax people. It's building. LOST has always been a character story. If this is the story that Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse wanted to tell, then regardless of if I like it or not, I respect that. I'm not going to set myself up for failure. I have loved this show for six years, and if the ending isn't every single thing that I had hoped and theorized it would be in those six years, I'm not going to stop loving it because of that. Perhaps, I will be a bit disappointed. That's a strong possibility. I expect they won't answer every question that I want answered. I'm okay with that. What LOST changed about television is that it never stops making you think, and I wouldn't expect any less if LOST left me thinking for the rest of my life. Now, I'll give you a topic and let's discuss... "Recon" is neither a "re" nor a "con," discuss!

From Lostpedia
- "I'd say it was retribution for the work you and I have been doing. So you're in danger, Sayid. If I can find you, so can the people that found Locke. The same people who, even as we speak, are sitting outside Hugo's mental institution." Ben
- "What makes you think I want to?" Sayid "Because, Sayid... to put it simply, you're capable of things that most other men aren't.

From Lostpedia
- "It's nice to see you again, John." Widmore "Do I know you?" Locke "Yes. I understand your being confused. Imagine how I feel. I met you when I was 17. And now all these years later, here we are. You look exactly the same." Widmore "Who are you?" Locke "My name is Charles Widmore. [Locke's eyes widen.] Tell me, John. How long has it been for you since... we first met, since you walked into our camp and you spoke to Richard?" Widmore "Four days." Locke "[Chuckles] That's incredible." Widmore
- "The camera in the desert--that was yours?" Locke "Yeah." Widmore "How did you know I'd be there?" Locke "Well, that's the exit. I was afraid Benjamin might fool you into leaving the Island, as he did with me. I was their leader." Widmore "The Others?" Locke "They're not the "Others" to me. They're my people. We protected the Island peacefully for more than three decades. But then I was exiled... by him, just as you were." Widmore "No. Ben wasn't even there when I left. He was already gone. I wasn't exiled. I... chose to leave." Locke "Why would you do that, John? [Pause] You've come to bring them back... the ones who left." Widmore "[Sighs] No." Locke "I understand you lying to me. I do. But there's something you should know. All your friends who left the Island? They've been back three years." Widmore "Three years?" Locke "They've gone back to their normal lives. [Widmore produces a newspaper and hands it to Locke.] And none of them has spoken a word of truth about where they were." Widmore [Locke looks at the newspaper, the London Daily Tribune from January 14, 2005. Its headline: "OCEANIC SIX: SURVIVORS RECEIVE HEROES WELCOME". Locke puts the paper down.] "I have to bring them back." Locke "And I'm going to do everything in my power to help you do that." Widmore [Widmore gets up to leave.] "Why? [Widmore stops and turns round.] Why would you help me?" Locke "Because there's a war coming, John. And if you're not back on the Island when that happens, the wrong side is going to win." Widmore
- Outside, kids are playing soccer, Widmore gives Locke his new identity, a passport, with the name Jeremy Bentham, Widmore says that his parents had a sense of humor when they named him, so why can't he, gives him money, says that it should be enough money for now, he also gives him an international phone, Widmore says if he needs to reach him for anything, just press 23, he gives him a folder, which contains his people's whereabouts, everyone that was on the island, Locke opens it up and sees a photograph of Sayid, Widmore says he's been watching them, that he's deeply invested in the people that were on the island, can't imagine what they must think of him after listening to Benjamin, Locke asks how he knows he's telling the truth, Widmore says he hasn't tried to kill him, and asks if can Locke say the same for Ben, Locke says he still doesn't trust him, that he sent a team of killers and a boat load of C4 to the island, Widmore says he needed Linus removed so it could be Locke's time, that he island needs him, and it has for a long time, Locke asks what makes him think he's so special, Widmore says because he is, a car pulls up, Locke says that Richard Alpert said he would die, if he wanted them to come back, he was going to have to die, Widmore says that he doesn't know why Richard said that, but he's not going to let that happen to him, Matthew Abaddon gets out of the car, Widmore says that he'll take him wherever he needs to go, protect him from anyone that will do him harm, Widmore says good luck and godspeed, Abaddon gets a wheelchair out of the car, says that anything Locke needs, just let him know, asks if there's anyone from his past he wants him to look up, he says that the whole world thinks he's dead, there must be someone that would be happy to see him, almost at the airport, Abaddon asks to at least tell him where they're going, Locke says Santo Domingo.
From Lostpedia
