Episode Analysis of 1.06 "House of the Rising Sun"

WARNING: If you have not already seen all of LOST, please DO NOT READ THIS.

My LOST re-watch and episode analysis will include major details from the entirety that is LOST, and will be written with the perspective of having seen everything already. You will be SPOILED if you read any further. It is far better if you learn the story of LOST for yourself, as it is meant to be seen. Trust me on this, and don't say that I didn't warn you first. Seriously. Stop it. Now. Go watch it.

To read my original post on this episode, please refer to House of the Rising Sun.

This episode was written by Javier Grillo-Marxuach, and directed by Michael Zinberg. It originally aired on October 27th, 2004.

This is a Sun Hwa-Kwon flashback-centric episode.

We begin with the opening of Sun Hwa-Kwon's eye. She's picking flowers from plants on the Island. She smells one of them. On the beach, at the shore-line, her husband, Jin-Soo Kwon, is fishing. Nearby, Jack and Kate do a horrible job at flirting. Charlie makes fun of them, as would I.

Initial Reaction to "The Package"

Okay, let's get the dirty jokes out of the way now. The title "The Package" can't help but make me laugh. I can only imagine the euphemisms being thrown out in the writers room as they wrote this episode. Between the title and Sun's undone sweater-buttons, this episode was all sorts of scantily-clad. There was also much more to it than that. There was more Season One nostalgia, lots of Korean (Including an annoying V promotional countdown clock that was subsequently blocking the subtitled translations of said Korean. Grrrrr, ABC!), Sayid Ninja-moves, Room 23, electromagnetism, more Evil-Tina Fey, and most importantly, our beloved Scots-brotha, Desmond David Hume. After the past two episodes, I can feel the momentum truly picking up. I can only hope that the pace continues. Now, let's talk about "The Package" (Giggle).

Notes:

1. The reunion is such an iconic scene that we've all been waiting for since Season 1, and the antithesis of the beginning of the Series, just one that we probably all thought would happen at the very end, not in Season 4. 
   
2. I totally knew who Jack's mom, Margo Shephard, was. She was in White Rabbit.
3. Kate looks around when they get off the plane because she's wondering if someone is there to arrested her.
   
4. Karen Decker was Admiral Cain from Battlestar Galactica. Nice!
5. The plane lands in Hawaii, where they actually film the show.
   
6. Jack can never have Locke be right about anything, can he?
7. Uh, Kate, I don't know if you've noticed, but Jack and Sawyer are always fighting eachother. Mostly over you. You're part of the problem.
8. There is so much information in the Oceanic press conference scene. 
9. Membata is Indonesian for ambivalent.
10. I find it hard to believe that anyone buys that Kate was six months pregnant before she got on the plane.
11. When Sun translate the Korean-speaking reporters question, her parents give her a weird look, this is because they do no know that she can speak English. However, she can kind of just pass that off as living on an island for over 100 days with people who are constantly speaking English.
    
12. The whole story of the Oceanic 6 makes no sense.
13. Naveen Andrews' acting in the scene where he sees Nadia is just outstanding. He blinks his eyes as if he wants to see if he's dreaming or not, and he's too much in shock to even kiss her. That's real. It's not a love-story happy-ending reunion that most television shows and movies have. If that really happened, anyone would be too much in shock to even do anything.
14. You can't fool me, I knew exactly who Noor Abed Jaseem was.
15. Sawyer refers to the barracks as New Otherton, which is Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse's nickname for the barracks.
16. From Lostpedia: Hurley's birthday party scene contained the following "Easter eggs": 4 palm trees on the lanai, 8 helium balloons tied by the pool, 15 presents on the lanai table, 16 party hats worn by background individuals, 23 & 42 were the Numbers on the jerseys worn on the 2 boys crossing over the pool right after the DJ was shown.
17. When Hurley's dad, David Reyes, mentions hunting boar on the island, Sayid and Nadia look at eachother as if he knows something in which he shouldn't. This indicates that Hurley has told his dad about the Island, but also that Sayid has told Nadia about the Island, which could mean that he told her everything, and may be why she ultimately died. 
18. Sun is so badass when she goes to stick it to her father. I wish she was like that all the time.
19. Frank says that the boat is the safest place to be. Wrong.
    
20. Jack says that he had a lot of practice with funerals, obviously he means all of the people that died on the island.
21. Jack finding out that Claire is his sister is much like Luke finding out that Leia is his sister in Star Wars.
22. Of course Kate's son is beautiful, Carole Littleton, because he's Claire's son, your grandson!

25. The Captain comes out, tells them to stop, that she's gone. From Lostpedia
26. The Captain introduces himself, Captain Gault, says he didn't want to lose anymore of his crew, that they have cabin fever, that it has something to do with the close proximity to the island, that there's a saboteur on board, the crew is working on repairs to the engine, then they'll move to safer waters, his orders from Charles Widmore, says Desmond knows him.
27. "Some of my crew has been dealing with, what might best be described as a heightened case of cabin fever. I think it's got something to do with the close proximity of the island." Captain Gault
28. "This is Charles Widmore's boat?" Desmond "That's right. You know him." Captain Gault
29. Captain Gault brings them inside, he shows them something, Sayid says it's a Flight Data Recorder, a black box, the Captain says it's from Flight 815, that a salvage vessel retrieved it from bottom of the Ocean, it took considerable amount of Widmore's resources, they found with wreckage of the plane, along with all 324 bodies, that the wreckage was staged, asks what kind of resources and manpower go into pulling off something like that, he says that's exactly why they want Benjamin Linus. From Lostpedia
30. "That's exactly what it is. Now here's the funny thing. This black box comes from Oceanic Flight 815. A salvage vessel recovered it from the bottom of the ocean. It took a considerable amount of Mr. Widmore's resources to procure it. It was found with the wreckage of the plane, along with all 324 dead passengers. That's not the complete story, as you are well aware, Mr. Jarrah, given the fact that you're standing here, breathing. The wreckage was obviously staged. Now can you imagine what kind of resources and manpower go into pulling off a feat of that magnitude? Faking the recovery of a plane crash? Putting 324 families through a grieving process based on a lie? But what's even more disturbing... where exactly does one come across 324 dead bodies? And that, Mr. Jarrah, Mr. Hume, is just one of the many reasons we want Benjamin Linus." Captain Gault
31. Juliet tells Sun she's sorry, that she had to stop them, she needs to get off the island, doesn't know if the boat is the answer, that in 3 weeks she'll have nausea, the week after that, shortness of breath, the week after that, she'll lose consciousness, go into a coma, then she'll stop breathing, that the baby will die, that she can't go.
32. "I'm sorry. I had to stop you any way I could. I know you don't trust me, but you need to get off this island. We all do." Juliet "You want to leave?" Sun "More than anything. I don't know if that boat out there is the answer or not, but it's something. I need to go home. So do you. Sun, in about three weeks, you'll be in an almost constant state of nausea. A week after that, you will experience shortness of breath that won't go away. A week after that, you will lose consciousness and slip into a coma. And then, Sun, you will die. And when your heart stops beating, so will the baby's. And that, Sun, is why it is my business, because you are my patient. If you go, you will die. And your baby will never be born." Juliet

Notes:

1. This is the first episode to feature both a flash back (Jin) and flash forward (Sun).
2. Captain Gault seemed to know that Desmond and Charles Widmore know eachother. If he knows that, that means that Charles Widmore knows Desmond was on the island, so, I'm wondering if he really did send him there now, and if he was someone that pushed Desmond along on his path to the island.
3. Jin's grave indicates that he was born on November 27, 1974, and died on September 22, 2004, the day that Oceanic Flight 815 crashed on the island.
4. Sun is the last member of the Oceanic 6 that was revealed.
5. From Lostpedia: Atlas Shrugged: Alternately the name of the Kahana's captain may be a reference to a character in Ayn Rand's 1957 novel, which is a story about the producers, the movers and shakers in society who decide to go on strike because they are not appreciated by the masses, and create a separate Utopian world, a "village" hidden from view from people, planes and the world.
6. From Lostpedia: The Survivors of the Chancellor: is the Jules Verne book, about the last voyage of the British ship Chancellor, that Regina is reading upside down. In the novel, at the beginning of its voyage, the Chancellor carried eight passengers and twenty crew members. By the end, only eleven people (five passengers and six crew) remained alive. In the novel, several characters commit suicide, at least one of them by jumping off of the raft and into the water.
7. Just a slap? Sun should have knocked Juliet out.
8. If Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse hadn't revealed at the 2007 Comic Con that Michael (Harold Perrineau) hadn't been coming back to the show, and his name hadn't been in the credits in every episode of the season before this one, his reveal and return to the show probably would have been one of the greatest and most shocking ones in the entire series. However, everyone and there mother had anticipated him being the man on the boat, and it was pretty disappointing, in my opinion. I wish they wouldn't have told us.

Notes:

1. I don't really understand how Danny Pickett went from the guy who said "See you in the funny pages" to Michael when he took blood from him, to so angry toward Kate and Sawyer when they're breaking rocks, even before Colleen dies.
2. I absolutely love the scene where Jack sees the Red Sox winning the World Series. It's probably the only scene, besides where Jae Lee commits suicide, that I like in this episode.
3. Upon initial reaction, I never thought that Sun pushed Jae Lee off the balcony, although I wouldn't put it past her, and can definitely see the symbolism.
4. It's really cool that LOST started the phrase, "That's why the Sox'll never win the Series," and it not only paid off in this episode, but the Red Sox, in fact, did win the World Series the same year that LOST aired and started using the phrase on the show, 2004. Coincidence?

2. Locke expresses that they should take twice the amount of dynamite they need in case one blows up, a failsafe.
3. Claire finally names the baby.
4. Jack needs to stop trying to control everything always.
5. Walt being taken on the raft is one of the first times I've been completely fooled on this show. I didn't see it coming at all.
6. Upon initial reaction, I thought the others were pirates. Sometimes I still do.
