It does look like the Black Rock. The box of explosives Sawyer is resting his hand on, the chains hanging down, the grid light pattern that would occur with a hold hatch. The shovels on the other hand don't look old enough. Also Danielle is wearing a JanSport sash, yeah the company is 40 years old, but that sash isn't. I wonder where she acquired that from?

From yesterday's Ask Ausiello:

Quote :

Question: Thanks for the Lost scoop last week. But I am a greedy bugger, and will take the words out of Oliver Twist's mouth: I want some more!— Benjamin Fleming Ausiello: And more you shall get, BF. Lost's streak of mind-blowing episodes continues tonight with "The Brig," the much ballyhooed "non-flashback" outing penned by Team Darlton. But I have to warn you, it's a dark hour, punctuated by one of the (spoiler alert) most, um, twisted Lost deaths ever. Question: Help me out here. I’m four months pregnant and need as much Lost scoop as possible!— Allyson Ausiello: How 'bout I give you four "Brig" scoops — one for each month you've been knocked up: 1) A classic Lost set piece makes a comeback. 2) Keep your eyes on Juliet's tape recorder. It's goin' places. 3) Someone poses this question to Sawyer: "Wanna zip your pants up?" 4) There's a little post-coitus canoodling within the first five minutes (and it may or may not be related to No. 3). Question: Am I wrong to suspect that Jack will be one of the five Lost deaths you have been speaking of?— Brandon Ausiello: Yes, you would be wrong to suspect that. Jack is not dying. And remember, I said there will be at least five deaths this month — four after tonight. Question: Did we see the "game-changing" moment on last week's Lost when Naomi revealed that the outside world had found Flight 815 and that there were no survivors?— Louis Ausiello: Take it away, Damon Lindelof: "Nope. Not yet. Trust us.... YOU. WILL. KNOW."

So Jack is safe - I hear sighs of relief from Littlet and LG - and I bet you are Ralf are right, Littlet. That is the Black Rock.

Sounds like Cooper does die tonight. But who will kill him - Sawyer or Locke? Or someone - or something (Smokey) - else entirely? And he dies in a twisted way?

hmm twisted way?! Interesting - more twisted than being buried alive, knocked around by smokey etc....

Classic set piece? Hmmm..

Ah der, I suppose that would be the Black Rock.

4 Toed Statue methinks

Yay for Jack (I got sentimental about him dying the other day LOL)

Cooper is going to die whoot!

I KNEW ALL THESE FROM COWORKER SO THIS IS NOT BREAKING MY VOW

LMAO, I knew you couldn't stay out of here Pen.

I don't think it'll be the statue, just because I don't count is as classic. We've only seen it once. Plus, I still think the promo pics look like they are in the Black Rock.

The search for redemption follows many paths.
For the lost souls on Lost, efforts at salvation vary from small acts of kindness that promote forgiveness to sudden acts of violence that promise freedom. For the show itself, redemption consists of a string of solid, and sometimes superb, episodes that has firmly re-established Lost in TV's top ranks, in quality if not popularity.

That climb to the top continues tonight with an excellent hour focused on Locke (Terry O'Quinn) and Sawyer (Josh Holloway). Where Locke seems to have lost his way, his faith turning to bitter doubt, Sawyer has begun to find himself and his place in the beach community.

Now their journeys cross, as Locke leaves The Others to seek Sawyer's help. What he wants from Sawyer and why he thinks Sawyer will comply are best left for viewers to discover. But it leads to one of the show's darkest and most morally complex outings yet, one few other shows would dare to attempt.

And since so many seem to have become fixated on this one point: It does provide an answer to an important, lingering question from the first season, along with a potential answer to the most important question of them all. Just remember, however, that answers are not necessarily universal or true.

Progress also is made on other fronts as the show speeds toward the finale and further explores the fractures in its beachfront solidarity. Jack learns a painful secret while revealing he has one of his own. And the mysterious pilot repeats last week's bombshell, the message that the wreckage from their flight was found and everyone on it was dead.

The good news for fans is that the producers seem to realize the show has to be accessible enough to keep a mass audience involved and has to focus on characters the audience wants to see. That means diverting attention back to the main camp and away from The Others. But that also means the story will last as long as the series lasts, a simple TV truth that seems to have escaped some of the show's more contentious, answer-eager fans.

Still, it's clear they've heard you. And as often happens, they've let Jorge Garcia's lovable Hurley humorously address audience concerns. As Sayid fiddles with the newly discovered transmitter, Hurley asks him, "What about the other part? The part about they found a plane and we're all dead?" "One thing at a time," Sayid answers.
When "one thing" leads to an episode this good, why leave the path now?

Saw this in a post at LTV... I'm not sure where we know about the recorder being passed around or whatever, so I'm looking.

"I tend to believe that it has something to do with Juliet going "exposé".
We already know that Juliet's role as a mole "goes public" and that the tape recorder she left for Ben "is passed around".
I guess that Sun was not as naive as we were meant to believe in last episode, and followed Juliet when she went back to record her report to Ben.
She probably brings the recorder back to the beach and has anyone listen to them."

Just read this at Dark UFO and it made me crack up:

Does Kate learn this week that Sawyer’s hillbilly seed has doomed her?
No. (And she and Sawyer continue to be more than friends.)

Hmm... not sure where that came from. I know I saw the one thing about "keep your eye on the recorder" but hadn't heard about it being passed around.

Me neither Jeannie and I still can't find anything.

LOL someone at LTV suggested the twisted death being Locke taking his kidney back from Cooper.

And I asked the poster from that other thing about the tape recorder, he said this - http://www.losttv-forum.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1497461&postcount=18

DarkUFO has insiderscoop's synopsis up if anyone is interested.

*already read it*

I won't look until tomorrow. I don't want to be that spoiled.

Oh and LMAO @ Locke taking his kidney back. That would be twisted indeed!
