although, what would Penny be doing with a portuguese version of Catch-22?

but still, Desmond letting Charlie die could have resulted in a myriad of possibilites... if Desmond is currently shaping reality.

Man, Jack is really being played like a fiddle. Juliet has him eating out of the palm of her hand.

Dang, you and curlee.

About the girl...I'm assuming she is part of the same group or team as the two Portuguese guys at the end of season 2. Which means that Penny shouldn't be too far behind.

Wasn't the girl at the end of today's episode the girl we saw at the end of the last season? They were trying to find Desmond (Penny paid them --- remember Desmond said with the right amount of money, she could find anyone?). She probably had the picture of them so that she knew who to look for.

But my question is --- how did they manage to find the island? I thought blowing up the hatch (last season) caused some kind of electromagnetic discharge or something.

SuperDave, I think he just has the story a little out of whack.

Spaceship, the two Portuguese guys were in some sort of building in presumably either the Arctic or Antarctica and when they saw the anamoly on the their equipment they called Penny on the phone.

Oh my bad, I thought the three of them were on the boat together. I guess I watched it too long ago.

The scene suddenly switches to an unknown location that appears to be a in the Arctic/Antarctic. Two Portuguese-speaking men play chess when one notices a message on a computer screen reading "7418880 Electromagnetic Anomaly Detected", prompting a frenzied response from both. One of them, frightened, makes a phone call. On the other line is Penelope Widmore, looking surprised by their voice and note "they've found it".

Now that sounds familiar! Thanks for posting that.

Okay, so for the record, does anyone know for certain who that girl was?

She used to be a blackjack dealer in Las Vegas at the Montecito, but James Caan fired her and she hasn't been heard from in a while.

I'm assuming the picture was in the Portugese Catch-22 to prove to Desmond that Penny was the one who sent the rescue team?

There were some great lines tonight, including the Flash vs. Superman discussion, and Sawyer asking Juliet and Jack if they were playing "Who's your favorite Other?" Classic.

I'm still not convinced that Jack isn't "in" on the mole thing as well. Who knows what Jack has been told/shown by the Others.

Either way, his character pretty much sucks balls now.

The one thing Desmond never saw in his vision was Penny. He just put the puzzle pieces together and assumed (hoped) that it was Penny, IMHO.

Actually the main thing he saw in his flashback was THAT picture of him and penny.

Did the Portugese chick even arrive on the helicopter? Is it even possible to parachute from a chopper at low altitude? Was there more crew on the chopper, and if so, are they dead in the ocean?

Desmond saw the picture, and assumed that it was Penny in his vision. When he saw the picture in the book, it confirmed his vision. He never saw for sure it was Penny, but assumed it.

Catch 22. What was the catch 22 here? That if he saves Charlies life that he can't have Penny?

Can anyone else that has read Catch 22 think of some kind of literary connection with this episode?

Besides the obvious helicopter crash/plane crash ties, I haven't come up with anything yet

Desmond didn't change anything, yet.

During Desmond's visions, they showed Hurley, Jin, and Charlie holding the parachute to catch the pilot. These are the same visions that show Charlie dying. Maybe Charlie gets it on the way back. If not, it was a mistake in the visions to show Charlie holding the chute.
-----------------------------------
IMO - The pilot was sent to the island to find Desmond and call back using the sat phone. My guess is the helicopter was meant to crash since it was likely a far journey and they would run out of gas. She jumped long before the thing crashed.

Jin's campfire horror story with the flashlight and actually scaring Hurley? Best. Thing. Ever.

I'm thinking that episode sets up the last four, because we really didn't learn anything from that episode, but a lot of great tension and drama is being created. Kate/Jack/Sawyer/Juliet - and the enventual consequences of Desmond saving Charlie.

I think the Catch 22 from Desmond's decision has yet to be realized.

btw, i think it's pretty obvious the backpack is the parachutist's. She was hired to find Desmond and that is the photo she was given to ID him, that's how she knows his name.

Supposedly, that's supposed to be a big clue moving forward.

Totally unsubstantiated at this point and should be considered rumor, but think The Truman Show.

Yes, we learned almost nothing in this episode. It was a snoozer as far as I'm concerned. But I'll give them the benefit of the doubt (again) and assume it was setting up some crazy ass stuff down the line. The only tension was the "will Desmond save Charlie again" theme- which pretty much already existed anyway- and Desmond's flashback was extremely uneventful.

although that seems incredibly cliche and I don't really buy it

but it was mentioned that how the parachutist got to the island was something to pay attention to

We learned that Desmond:
was a monk at one point;
was engaged for six years to someone other than Penny;
Ran out on his wedding to follow a calling;
A calling that was apparently not really his calling;

We learned:
How Penny and Desmond met;
That the creepy ring shop lady that would later "guide" Desomond about his visions knew the monk that was "guiding" Desomond at the Monastery;
That apparently the island can be reached by someone from the "outside" world.

Did we learn every secret of the island/show/plotline? Nope. But I think we actually learned some interesting stuff.
