Season 3 Episode 5

Lost Update Season 3 Episode 5 - The Cost of Living

EKO IS DEAD
And the monster killed him. I was hoping that eventually the monster would end up being some type of machine, but the more we see it the more it looks supernatural, which to me will be disappointing.

Eko's brother's body wasn't in the plane. Where is it now?

Locke talks to Eko about how in Season 1 he seen the monster. In that episode he says "I looked into the eye of the island and what I saw was beautiful." Last night he told Eko "I saw it once you know... I saw a bright light. It was beautiful" Eko's reply "That's not what I saw." Good vs. Evil? Heaven and Hell? Who knows.

The woman in Eko's flashback tells him he owes his brother 1 church. This explains why Eko was trying to build a church on the island.

It also seems that when people see visions on the island it is always of dead people. Eko seen his brother, and the three men he killed. Locke has seen Boone. Jack has seen his father.
The vision Eko sees of his brother says "you speak to me as if I were your brother". Does this mean the other visions (Jack's dad, Boone) aren't really them either?

Ben does have the tumor. And Juliet wants Jack to kill Ben. So is Juliet good or evil?? Her movie reads as follows: "Ignore everything I'm saying. Ben is a liar. And he is very dangerous. Some of us want a change. But it has to look like an accident. It has to look like we tried to save him. And that's up to you Jack. It's a complicated surgery. No one would ever know. And I would protect you. Now tell me to turn off the movie."

So the man with the eye patch is actually in a different station. He also seems to know that the survivors turned the camera on. We'll have to wait and see if he owns that glass eye from season 2. Locke ends the scene with "I guess he'll be expecting us".

Interesting Quotes of the night
Locke: Eko is heading to the plane that crashed on top of the entrance to the Pearl Station
Desmond: That's quite a coincidence
Locke: Don't mistake coincidence for fate

Ben: Two days after I found out I had a fatal tumor on my spine a spinal surgeon fell out of the sky. And if that's not proof of God I don't know what is.

And the show ends with
Sayid: What did he say John?
Locke: He said... we're next.

Next weeks episode is the final show until February. It is a Kate flashback show.
