How you been watching Fringe?

One year ago today, Variety reported "Fox scares up J.J. Abrams' 'Fringe'." Since that time, Abrams has brought to the public not only the expensive pilot but three more episodes of his new show. Flight 815 became famous on LOST and now Flight 627 with Fringe probably won't be as important in Fringe as Flight 815 was in LOST, but that was good start for the new series. Abrams has been a busy man with Star Trek only a few more months away.

LOST Season 4 Episode 2 Confirmed Dead - On Island Recap

Team Jack
Meets up three newbies: Daniel Faraday (the physicist), Miles Straume (Ghostbuster), Frank Lapidus (drunk pilot). All three of their flashbacks feature a confirmation of Oceanic Flight 815 being found on the bottom of the India Ocean. It still didn't say when. Jack and Kate meet Daniel first. He is very nervous. Jack sees the gun and doesn't trust him. They tell him about the phone, since he's LOST his. The team can use the phone to track each other down with the little transponder. He calls the freighter and talks with him on speaker phone at first and then on regular mode. That phone signals pops up on the screen and they see another one, Miles'. They go to track him down. Also soon there after they a box from the copter with gas masks and hazardous material bags. He awkwardly says he's not in charge of packing. Miles is on the rocks near the ocean and looks to be knocked out, but he's not. He holds the gun on Jack and Kate and they eventually take him to where Naomi is, and he does his best paranormal state impression and says she died like Kate and Jack told him that John killed her.

Sayid and Juliet get worried and go out looking for Jack and Kate. They go back to the cockpit and then track them from there. They sneak up and play calvary saving the day by hiding in the jungle with their gun pointed at Miles and Daniel. They find what they think is Charlotte but it a clever diversion of Vincent with a transponder around his neck, and not too much later they find the pilot and the helicopter. The helicopter landed and is still in working condition. Juliet tells Frank her real name and he says that she wasn't on the plane and then Miles freaks out and starts asking where he is. They are there looking for what Ben tells Team Locke.

Team Locke
Ben is still playing all of his mind games with Karl, Sawyer and Locke. All three of them come close to killing him at one point. They find Charlotte Staples Lewis (C.S. Lewis, the archaeologist) as she is dropping out of a tree that she was stuck in. She's excited to be alive until she sees them. She's asking a lot of questions and Locke doesn't like it when Hurley starts to give some of those answers. They take her with them against her will.

Locke tells Sawyer that he's getting "his orders" from Walt. He told them that Walt was taller. Sawyer says something along the lines of "So taller ghost Walt told you to kill Naomi?" Walt told him to stop her from communicating with the boat. He also tells them about Ben shooting them and show off his wound. Locke says something kind of amazing. "I probably wouldn't have made it if there had still been a kidney there."

Later she tries to run away and Ben shots her twice in the chest. For a moment, I thought John had the gift of healing, but she was wearing a bullet proof vest. Ben tells Locke not to kill him, because he has answers. Locke asks what's the monster, the smoke monster? Ben says he doesn't know, but then Ben tells the group all about Charlotte and her team so they won't kill him, and they don't. He also tells them what they want; him. He says that he knows all of this, because he has a man on their boat.

Answers
Flight 815 was "found." The people were declared dead.
Ghosts exist. People can communicate with them.
The people on the freighter came looking for Ben.

Questions:
Why are they looking for Ben? I would assume the purge.
Who does Ben have on that boat? I'm thinking, oh course, Michael! I still don't understand why Harold Perrineau has been listed in the credit since he hasn't been in either episode.
What does C.S. Lewis have to do with LOST? Most people know C.S. Lewis from The Chronicles of Narnia. One thing about the seven books in that series, people got to Narnia in different ways. Perhaps people get to the island in different ways. Two other popular pieces of ficiont are "The Screwtape Letters" and "The Great Divorce." Also, apart from teaching at Oxford and writing fiction. C.S. Lewis was a Christian theologian and apologist. The writers of LOST have used famous names from philosophy before.

LOST Confirmed Dead

LOST Season 4 Episode 2 "Confirmed Dead"

Thursday February 7, 2008 9pm - 10:02 pm

ABC's official description: "The survivors begin to question the intentions of their supposed rescuers when four strangers arrive on the island."

There are also two sneak peeks available at ABC.com for Confirmed dead. Be sure to check tomorrow for an updated recap of all the action on island and off island.

Also how cool is it that LOST gets an extra couple of minutes? I think that's awesome.

Oceanic Air Ad during Eli Stone

The Oceanic Air commercial showed the same ladies from a previous commercials on the official website, but this time they were telling the world about their golden pass with which would let you fly whenever and go wherever you want. They say to go to flyoceanicair.com find out how to get one, but as of right now that site is not working properly. The ad was "hacked" by Sam from find815.com. He said that you can't trust them. It also showed Sam saying that they found flight 815 and he briefly shows some underwater footage of a Oceanic plane.

This seems to confirm what Naomi and Another Copper said about the plane. This also bring me back to a post, that I posted a while back, when was find815.com supposed to be happening? Was it supposed to be happening back in 2004? This has to happen before Naomi or Anthony come to the island. But was this happening in LOST Time, and actually in 2008? When do the Oceanic 6 get back to the real world?
