UNspoiled! The Constant: LOST

Well, Krista finally gets her Rose and Bernard episode, and it's a sweet story. We don't learn too much, other than the fact that the Island healed more than just Locke with its magical powers.

In this episode we are joined by another Unspoiled co-host, Chris a.k.a. Money...or maybe it's all in our heads.
 
We discuss Hurley's terrible therapy, fatshaming, whether Libby is a lying liar like everyone else, and why Ana-Lucia should know better than to allow a gun to be shot off in a concrete room where it could ricochet and hit someone.

Unspoiled Co-host Maggie joins us to talk about that crazy liar Henry, Locke's daddy issues, how awesome Helen is, why Sayid should be the leader of everything ever, and maybe a little about Jack and Sawyer's dick-measuring poker match.

In this episode, Sun is a lying liar and Jin is a controlling jerk. Wait...I thought we were in season 2. What the hell is this?

Meanwhile, Ana-Lucia teams up with Sayid because, for now at least, they are the only people on this whole damn island with any sense.

We go on a trip down memory lane in this episode, as Claire tries to remember what happened to her when Ethan kidnapped her. It turns out she was brainwashed or something, and was totally willing to give up Aaron, and her life, to The Others, but a ~mysterious~ teenage girl set her free.

Meanwhile, Eko makes a confession to Henry, whose motivations are still a question mark, and Jack and Locke continue their power struggle.

In this episode we meet the mysterious Henry Gale. Is he a liar? Is he being truthful? Or should we just trust Sayid's instincts? We don't know yet, but we do know that we shouldn't trust Jack's. He's an idiot.

What can I say about this episode? We started out talking about Sawyer's conning abilities, and ended up with almost 15 minutes of Krista's whacked-out guesses on what's going to happen on the show. She's experiencing what those of us who watched this as it aired did: complete WTF-ery. Did she get anything right? Maaaaaaybe. Maaaaaaaaybe not. She'll just have to wait and see, just like we all did.

And we're back! And we get to talk about what a dumbass Charlie is being, and how if he just stopped acting like a lunatic and explained to Claire what was going on, that he'd probably find himself less ostracized and not in need of stitches. But that's not how things work on The Island, so instead of a nice story about a guy thinking a baby needs a baptism, we get a guy being an idiot and stealing a baby.

Ok, I'll be honest with you: we didn't love this episode. But here's the good news: from this point on, the season is firing on all cylinders. It's only uphill from here. We just have to get through this Jack episode, that's all.

Be sure to listen all the way to the end. There's a little bonus for those of you who enjoy when we get super ridiculous.

It's a Mr. Eko episode, and it did not disappoint! Krista sort of gets an answer to whether or not Eko is a priest, and we find out that the plane that killed Boone also killed Eko's brother Yemi.
Oh, and we get a really good look at the Smoke Monster. WHAT IS IT?
