    But it did sound a little like Window To The Past from Harry Potter. wink

    It's probably the most memorable new theme this season too!

    [spoiler] In first season finale, Dr Artz says it could have been a Tsunami. Now It seems he was righ. I gues the boat smashed right in the weakest point of the statute and then jumped directly to the middle of the jungle. I guess Jacob was watching the whole thing drinking with wine very far from there. [/spoiler]

    Yes! It binded some elements from the seasons together. Good storytelling as well.

    It was interesting!

    I love MIB's proper new motif.

    I fell back by a couple of weeks but The Four Trombones is all up to date now.

    Ok, we had been demanding to know Richard Alpert´s story for ages, hadn't we? So we finally got it! Very good episode, as Bregt says, it binded some elements of previous seasons together and finally knew who is Richard, how did he get to the island and why he has been working for Jacob. I have huge problems figuring out how the Others and the Dharma Initiative fit in the big picture though.

    How the first half of the episode played well entirely in Spanish was impressive (was it accurate?)

    And the accent was awful (Since Nestor is from Cuba and they have different accent)

    Yes the accent was a mixing between cuban spanish and venezuelan spanish. As Jordi said, the more similar spanish accent to those is the one they speak in Tenerife. I couldn't help it but thinking of those terrible venezuelan soap operas every time Richard talked though.

    The others are people brought to the island by Jacob to help him keep the evil powers at bay. The Dharma Initiative is Widmore's creation, presumably to harness the powers on the island (including possibly the MIB himself) in order to do who knows what -- take over the world, probably?

    Thanks! As much as I like the show I have to admit I get lost (no pun intended) many many times with some of the main ideas / events taking place in the show.

    Was trying to work this out myself. I suppose the Losties are the first people to come and discover Jacob and the whole candidates thing.

    It seems to me like the others aren't really there for any reason other than for Jacob to try to prove to MIB that people aren't basically bad? Seems like Jacob's real purpose was simply to save the world from the MIB by trapping him on the island, but that, as long as they were there for a long time anyway, he would just bring more people to the island to try to show MIB that they weren't inherently evil. Maybe that's why the others make lists of the new arrivals and then kidnap them - they're trying to gather up all the best people who come into one group.

    Where did you get that Dharma is Widmore's creation?? Wasn't he one of the others while Ben was just a kid living with the Dharma initiative?

    Oops, I think I just accidentally made that up. He's a shady company man, but he was doing other things on the island when the Dharma Initiative was going on (unless he did some time travelin')

    Dharma initiative was created by Albert Hanso. one of the descendents of the Captain Black Rock. I don't think Charles Widmore has nothing to do with it, Since he was the leader of the "others".

    I'm afraid all the connection about Jacob and Dharma will be unexplained. I guess Jacob doesn't control everything and "dharma people and US army found the Island for himselfs.

    Some people says is only the two ways to explain the Island : Myth and Science.

    We are in middle of the final season, and I think they only will explain the Jacob thing. All the other stuff, the time travel wheel, how Eloise visited Desmond in the past, etc....will remain unexplained. sad

    Alvar Hanso created Dharma.

    Widmore must have been a true "Other" that I suppose Richard brought to the island.

    The 9th episode is what Lost is about. So much passion and drama, it was on my seat for the whole duration...the episode is epic and it's probably one of the best - if not THE best, of the entire show. Almost makes worth watching the show for 6 years just for that episode. The character and air of the music along with the directing right from the very first moment hinted that something great was to be presented in this episode. It's very impressive what they can do when the time is right and when they want it...also goes to show that Giacchino is operating on instructions as well, and i am having the impression that they know they're creating filler episodes in season 5 and 6 (so far, before the 9th that is) until they lead to the sweeping apex. I can only hope for such a line to continue to the end, at least the 9th episode restores my faith in the writers once and for all. It's surely some of the most impressive tv moments ever.

    On a sidenote, did anyone else found Richard, the character and the acting, heartbreakingly impressive and wholly outstanding at places? I never expected such a story and depth behind this character.

    Nestor Carbonell was fantastic and the bearded, slave, Spanish speaking Richard seemed like an entirely different character.

    Richard's theme sounds very similar to "A Window To The Past" from the Prisoner of Azkaban.

    NO

    "A window to the past" is one of my all time favourite cues, and Richard's theme has nothing to do with it.

    About Nestor Carbonell performance I think it was almost like a "caricature" of the typical poor servent.

    I have to say i listened to windows to the past too and i agree with Jordi, it's not similar to Richard's theme. The first's adventurous, the 2nd one is tragic and dramatic.

    Maybe it's because i can't understand Spanish and that part didn't influence me, but all in all he seemed very desperate and passionate about his wife and i just loved that. Episode 9 was perhaps Lost's best episode to date, imo.

    Probably, I think in spanish you notice too much his tricks trying to act like a desesperate person.

    About if it's the best Lost episode...probably it is. The Constant was much more original, Thourhg the looking glass was the sixth sense of the television shows, but Ab Aeterno looks like a MOVIE! the production level is amazing. and the narrative pulse superb.

    It´s his accent, definitely. We know this is not spanish (from Spain) accent but cuban / venezuelan spanish accent. He sounds hilarious and funny to us when it should be serious and dramatic.

    I completely forgot there was another episode on last night and casually wandered onto the Lostpedia forums for about 10 minutes and couldn't work out why everything I read made no sense. Yet after all that, I still have no idea as to what's about to happen other than whose centric it is. Count myself lucky. dizzy
