""23rd Psalm" Episode Discussion" |
OK...so, basically there's one thing in particular in this episode that I really didn't understand, and that made me feel tempted to just change the channel since it was so out there...I think you all know what I'm talking about... The black cloud? What the hell? OK, "Lost" was realistic from the start since there was nothing really extraterrestrial or whatever, and you're pretty much expecting the whole show to be about these people...yeah, no. So now they throw in this black swirly cloud of smoke? It seems so out of place, especially in this show, it kinda put me off for a bit. Anyway...what did everybody else think of it (and of other things in the episode, too)?

I enjoyed both episodes. The black cloud was bizarre, and turned this show into much more a stretch from reality than it had been.The whole Sawyer/Kate/Jack thing is starting to really irritate me. What was the last line that "Walt" typed? Does Eko think he is Jesus? The whole good vs evil thing, 40 days of silence, etc.

GREAT ep. I was LOVING the Mr. Eko back story & now just need to know what he was doing in Australia taking a flight to LA. Hmm.I have a serious love/hate relationship with Lost. I LOVE the show, but HATE how each ep creates more new questions than answers. No, I really love that too . I need to know what the deal is with the "monster/black cloud." I want to see what the similarities are between Locke & Mr. Eko, as the only two men to NOT FEAR & face the "monster." Does the monster only kill those who fear it or is there another motive? I thought the whole theme of last night's show was great, the writers are great at what they do. I don't understand why Michael is so secretive about communicating with Walt on the computer. Why wouldn't he want Locke & Jack & others' help in tracking Walt. Doesn't make sense to me. Also felt bad for Charlie a little bit. Claire was a little quick in attacking him & booting him from their hut. I was hoping that he was holding onto the statue as a religious icon, because he WAS religious when he was younger. Very disappointed when he went to his "stash." So, is he already using again or did he save them just in case he wants to relapse? I actually like the Jack/Sawyer/Kate triangle. It's obvious Kate is in love with Sawyer & vice-versa and they do have chemistry, so I'd like to see them together, since I am not on the island . I see Jack & Ana Lucia getting together (unless she goes to jail -- then she'll have to be the next major character death, which is even better).

I think he's being secretive because he wants to go after Walt himself, not because he's "forbidden". I don't think that everyone has bought into the Dharma Initiatives' rules about everything, especially Jack, so I think some of them wouldn't mind if he was using it for communication. But, I think he doesn't want them to know that he's been talking to Walt, if it really is Walt. He already lied to Locke about not going after Walt alone and that's the reason why he wanted to learn how to shoot a gun.

I know there is no way of knowing this but does something weird happen every time the code is entered? Say for instance, Michael entered the code when he was supposed to and that activated the black cloud.Or when the original keeper of the code entered it, the polar bear showed up. Does entering the code activate the odd happenings on the Island? And if the code is not entered does that mean, no more polar bears, no more Walt holograms, no more black clouds . . . Or everyone is just stoned on heroin. How many statues did they have on that plane? Rolly Sig Shop

I was not really feeling the love for this episode. I was so excited to have an Eko episode. His story was pretty good too. But I have to echo the stretch from not reality cause let's face it this show is anything but, but the stretch from believability. I thought the cloud-smoke thing was cool. What was it doing to Eko? What were those flashes? Where they reading his thoughts? But the fact that his plane and brother were there on the island? Unless we figure that the horse Kate saw was in fact the horse that saved her life and Jack saw his father for real. Maybe the "monster" projects their thoughts into reality? I don't know...I just did not get a big WOW factor from this episode for some rason. A PhoenixMons Creation

Locke also had a face to face encounter with the "monster" that he never talked about. I wonder if it was similar to Eko's experience. We also saw the black cloud/smoke before when it tried to pull Locke into the ground.I like the theory that if you mess with the computer it activates the "security system". Did you notice that "Eko" is "Locke" without the L & C? DH thinks that is significant.  2005 PhoenixMons

Not your imagination. On whatever I was watching this morning (CNN Entertainment piece, I think) they showed it. It's pictures of all the significant events of Eko's past.

Did you go to the link above? If so, did you see the pic you are talking about? There are lots of pics there and it would be hard to pull the one you are talking about with the description you give.

And the episode brings us back to questions about the island's location. It seems the drug plane really did take off from Nigeria (eastern Africa). How could it get to the south Pacific?

So... now that you're going to have a son, does that mean you'll still send Christmas letters from your dog(s)? Or does the kid pull rank?

Loved the ep.!! One of my favorites. Eko rocks. It seemed clear to me through the flashbacks that he always had a good/spiritual streak, but did what he had to do to survive. Obviously, he had no problems killing what he judged to be scum…but after slitting the throats of the drug dudes, he looked upon the kid bystander with such mercy in his eyes. The actor is wonderful at communicating his ‘lines’ non-verbally.After the plane left, I think he jumped at the opportunity to leave the tough-guy life behind. The army would spread the word that the infamous Mr. Eko was gone/dead…and he could start over. I also liked the moment when Charlie joined in with the 23rd Psalm reciting. Made you think “maybe he really is carrying the statue for spiritual reasons”…then they show him stacking it on a dozen others and you’re left scratching your head. Added depth to Charlie though, which I liked. The whole brother/plane being on the island is freaky, but I’m not surprised by seemingly impossible coincidences anymore…

I saw it Trigirl. The eyes and nose are VERY apparent when you put the picture in 'Effect Browser' and lower intensity. I'm glad someone here sees some of these things besides me. I've started telling myself I'm just seeing illusions, though, so, I havent reported a lot of stuff I keep seeing over and over. I'm just wondering when my 'Orangutang' is going to show up in an episode.
