In the penultimate episode of Lost's first season, we bid an emotional farewell to the raft plotline. As the Losties prepare for an imminent attack by the Others, everyone scrambles to get the boat in the water. It's a terrific episode that juxtaposes the survivors' pre- and post-crash lives, and includes several standouts moments we've been waiting all season for.

We're splitting this episode into two, just because there's so much to cover. Part 2 will be dropping next week.
