In "Dave," we get a deep, occasionally dark look into Hurley's past and present psychological troubles. Inside the hatch, "Henry"/Ben continues to frustrate his captors, though he seems to have earned Locke's trust. And Jason Mittell tells us about the early days of Lostpedia and why he loves the series finale.  Find us on Twitter @TheHatchPodcast, and at Facebook.com/TheHatchPodcast.

It all comes crashing down for "Henry Gale" in the final moments of this week's episode, despite his efforts to earn Locke's trust. In flashback, we cringe as a much sadder version of Locke tries to win his father's approval once again. (Helen is not sympathetic.) Our guest is film and media studies professor Jason Mittell, who studied how fans responded to the blast door map and has written extensively about what makes "Lost" so great.

In The Whole Truth, Sun finds out she is pregnant and proceeds to tell Jin (and the viewers)... something other than the whole truth. In the subplots, Ana-Lucia obtains the map to Henry Gale's balloon, she and Sayid set off to find it. In the brilliant final seconds, Henry/Ben Linus tells John and Jack that, hypothetically, he could be leading them into a trap.

"Henry Gale" is still a prisoner in the hatch, which means we've got more from our interview with Michael Emerson.

Finally, the long-promised interview with Michael Emerson, whose brilliant portrayal of Ben Linus begins in this episode. Plus: Why does Sayid agree to torture Ben/Henry Gale? How brilliant is their back and forth? And how do the show's writers treat war in Sayid's flashback?  Find us on Twitter @TheHatchPodcast, and at Facebook.com/TheHatchPodcast.

Sawyer pulls off two masterful long cons this episode, reminding us he's not actually a good person (at least not yet). We try to figure out why he steals the guns, and whether he ever really considered not stealing Cassidy's money. We also share the final part of our interview with set decorator Rick Romer, who tells us why he described his job on LOST as "shoveling money into a furnace all day long."

Yes, this is the one where Charlie steals Claire's baby and Locke punches him. We cringe our way through the episode and consider the possibility that Charlie is in fact using heroin again, despite what he tells Jack. We also share more of our interview with set decorator Rick Romer, who tells us about how he designed Ben's house, and the firestorm caused by the design of psychic Richard Malkin's house.

Jack is back in a big way this week. We talk about Jack's relationship with Christian, his ongoing conflict with John Locke, and whether he should've just let Michael leave. We also hear more from Jonathan Gray, genuine "Lost" scholar, who is currently looking into what makes people hate the things they hate on television. Relatedly, he shares his thoughts on Lost's finale. Find us on Twitter @TheHatchPodcast, and at Facebook.com/TheHatchPodcast. Leave us your hot take by phone at +1 954-6-DHARMA.

Mr. Eko's soul is in the spotlight as he and Charlie trek through the jungle, searching for the Beechcraft. We've got lots of questions about Eko — his repentance, his regrets and his moral code. We also talk with Jonathan Gray, a genuine "Lost" scholar who has written about how the show subverts stereotypes and tells an international story.

In Los Angeles in September, Michael Giacchino conducted an orchestra playing music from LOST. Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse answered audience questions about the future of the franchise and the decisions of a decade ago. Josh Holloway, Emilie de Ravin, Daniel Dae Kim, Andrea Gabriel and Rebecca Mader read screenplays and castaway letters. We got all of it (or most of it, at least) on tape.  "We Have To Go Back: The LOST Concert 2018" took place Sept. 15 at the Ford Theatres in Los Angeles. Music performed by the Hollywood Studio Symphony Orchestra.  Our cover art is by Danny Roth and our theme music is by Andy G. Cohen.
