    It was a wooden boat and a gigantic wave.

    I mean we are talking about a show where a plane split in half in mid-air and most of the passengers survived.

    Very good episode its going to be a real emotional day for me when the series is finally over. This has been my first series tv show I have every watched fully. If I ever missed an episode I waited till it came out on dvd.

    One of my favorite episodes of the entire series. I was getting a little worried about where they were headed, but I definitely feel the show picking up steam.

    I agree with all the sentiments, a very good episode. Only 7 new episodes left before the finale. It's actually winding down and it makes me sad. Hopefully all 7 of the final episodes are as good as this one and we don't end up with duds like last week's and the Kate/Claire episode.

    something that I didn't get was The Black Rock sailing in on a tsunami, when Jacob and The Man in Black calmly watched the ship sailing in on a perfectly clear and sunny day at the end of season 5...

    Are we sure that was the Black Rock? Jacob told Richard that there were many who came before him, so they may have just been some others that Jacob brought and eventually died.

    Anyone else think Nestor Carbonell (Richard Alpert) should win an Emmy for his performance tonight? That was serious acting.

    Jacob could have easily conjured up a storm with a simple snap of the fingers for all we know, or it could have been another ship... It doesn't really matter.

    I love how on the surface this like a religious cop-out, but in reality Jacob acts as the antithesis to the oppresive religious system that Alpert almost perished from. While they were ready to hang a good man, Jacob gave him the second chance... Tabula rasa.

    LOST has a mythology all it's own, and Jacob/MIB's usage of words like hell serves only to put it into terms that he could understand.

    I may be in the minority but the episode didn't do much for me. Yes, it answered Richard's story and I suppose that is progress. But, basically, it felt like what we saw Jack and company doing....sitting around a camp fire twiddling their thumbs while Richard ran through a jungle with flashbacks to his story while having an internal conflict about why he should remain loyal to Jacob. The storyline didn't actually move at all this episode...so in that regard it felt like filler.

    If the island is the 'cork' that holds evil in, away from the world, what's going on in the alternate timeline where the island is destroyed?

    This may have been answered before but why did MIB take on the form of Locke? Why is he stuck as Locke?

    He took the form of Locke to manipulate Ben into killing Jacob. I don't think we know for certain why he's stuck as Locke, but I think it's implied that is has something to do with Jacob being dead.

    I'm not sure the island has been destroyed in the alternate timeline. Ben Linus (alt. timeline) did come from the Island with his father and became a school teacher. It seems as if they were forced to leave it though.

    So nothing tells us it was destroyed, but it does tell us it existed/exists.

    As for the episode, I liked it a bunch! The guy who plays Richard did an amazing acting job, award kind of acting!

    As in my guess for who will take over Jacob's job, the obvious guess is Jack, but I think it will be Sawyer. We've seen him sacrifice himself in the past (jump from helicopter), and I think he'll do it again in a very emotional series finale.
