I remember first watching this episode, thinking "Oh, it's another flash back for one of the characters... who is it though?" then the shaking ceiling from the explosion, and I was like "WAIT, NO.... THAT'S INSIDE THE HATCH?!" One of the best "WTF" moments ever.

[@stevied7531]

I will never forget how obsessed I was with this season of tv in the mid 2000’s. It consumed my life. The hatches. The videos. The theories. It was my world for so long

[@StoneMountain64]

such a good show

[@Impervious11]

They ended it with a cop out. They kept promising to explain all the mysteries of the island, and very clearly advertised it as a show being all about the mysteries of the island. Then near the end they tried to pretend like the show was *only* about characterization as they threw everything out the window. I appreciated it for the ride, but the ending was basically a dream sequence when they said they wouldn't end it like that.

[@pammorrison6130]

+Impervious bingo

[@MuttonChopYaz]

Yup, and it's why I will probably never rewatch the series in its entirety, despite the beginning being SUPER solid.

[@Moonbiot]

This was about the peak of LOST. I was so thrilled they were finally showing us what was in the hatch, and answering questions and introducing new questions. But I regret that it went downhill like it did. I didn't even bother watching the ending.

[@AnthonyMcNeil]

+Impervious The ending was, in retrospect, the best way they could have ended the show. It was no way that they were going to be able to explain everything. Could it be deemed as a cop out? Yes, but really, what other way could they have ended the show? After they explained everything, how could they have ended it? They were in a tough spot. So I agree with what you are saying but thinking back on the many mysteries the show had, it was no way they could have explained them all.

[@crev1018]

This scene has constantly replayed in my mind ever since it first aired

[@TheBest0704]

Lost is so ingenious, so ahead of its time. This show rattled me to my core. I'm on my 4th rewatch now. Everytime I finish it I want to start right over from the beginning. No show has ever come anywhere close to having that kind of effect on me. It's such a good show, it almost makes me sad, knowing there will never be anything better. There's plenty of other shows I really enjoy: Breaking Bad, True Detective, Boardwalk Empire, Westworld, Homeland, The Wire, Better Call Saul, Billions, Person of Interest, Stranger Things, House of Cards, Game of Thrones, etc....These are all fantastic. Something about Lost though, it's the show of all shows. The sheer mystery of it, and how that mystery unfolds endlessly from start to finish. The fact that it's not even Rated R and is the best, speaks to how truly genius the story and suspense is. No curse words or forced sex scenes to keep people intrigued, unnecessary with this, epic masterpiece...........

[@spcs999]

Exactly my thoughts too. LOST touches you on so many levels, how its so complex yet so easy, how its mysterious and yet so emotional...

[@jasewildheart]

don't you find at the end of the day the mysteries were all just a load of nonsense? Clearly they had no idea where they were heading and overall it has great characters...great individual episodes but a terrible overall story.

[@wolverineiscool7161]

[@gretchygrl517]

I believe LOST was one of the first tv shows to ever use flash backs AND flash forwards the way they did. Simply iconic.

[@jabroni-28]

I try and picture myself when I first saw this scene: Who the hell is that? Where the hell are we? What the hell is that medicine? What the hell is he looking for? You go from wondering who the guy is, to somehow building a sort of trust with this mysterious character when something goes wrong and he’s trying to find out what it is. Breathtaking The mystery and suspense were so unforgettable, I can’t believe people said they didn’t like this show. It’s a treasure trove of cinematic craftsmanship

[@omarmontana1969]

hahagahhahahaha

[@ThePhilosopher-ww6jt]

I love the way they start the second season off with a mysterious scene that seemingly has nothing to do with the show or any of the main characters. They hide this characters face to heighten the mystery. The use of an obscure song from decades ago to set the mood. The use of the instrumental music after he realizes there is a disturbance to increase the tension. Then the final reveal where we learn that this is what's in the hatch, the answer to the mystery that every fan wanted to know. This scene is brilliant.

[@Books-and-coffee0]

I seriously can't stop rewatching this scene. Desmond's routine, the music, the darkness of the hatch, the close up at Jack and Locke at the end. A work of art.

[@doct0rnic]

It's just trippy that it's morning inside and Desmond is going through a morning routine, and you think it's morning while watching but then the door blows open and it's night outside.

[@user-hu9vi7nk1l]

What about when Locke has a flashback when he was denied a tour in Australia because he's on a wheelchair and then he says his famous "You can't tell me what I can't do" and then shows how in the middle of the plane carnage he's out of his world as he's able to stand on his feet once again

[@rollbruv]

The best show of all time. Nothing comes close. Watchmen, Dark, Chernobyl, Breaking Bad, 24 were spectacular. But LOST stands apart - unique. It redefined storytelling. And to have such a wide set of brilliant characters. I mean think about it - Ben, Locke, Sawyer, Jack, Dez, Charlie, Hurley, Richard and even ones introduced much later on in the series - Daniel, MIB, Juliet, Widmore. I could go on. Hands down the best of the best. Leaves all the competition far behind.

[@Lopzztony]

Breaking bad gets close to it

[@rollbruv]

@@Lopzztony looking at the story, plot and ending I can say with conviction that Lost is at a different level. Breaking Bad was great, even awesome, but not philosophical and epic as Lost though. Another show that showed great potential was Mindhunter. I consider it in my top 3 list. But due to budgetary reasons, we may never get another season. Very disappointing.

[@someone_has_my_handle]

I'm almost sure this wasnt planned, but start at 2:26, the music follows the numbers pattern, then the timing of the scenes finishes it. 4 instances of the first melodic line, 8 instances of the next, 15 of the 3rd, 16 seconds for the title screen, 23 seconds until we once again get the shot looking up through the hatch (I couldnt find a 42 with the timing afterwards, other than 42 seconds after the previous, jack says John's name, the person wanting to explore the hatch). We also see Desmond do 16 actions before the blast (4 before resetting the numbers; opening of his eye; getting out of bed; riding of the stool; and typing at the computer) a total of 23 counting before the blast and after the blast. 42 seconds after we see desmond for the last time is when the intro scene ends. We also see him interact with 4 things he ate with, a bowl, plate, glass, and fork, he rides the bike at 16(presumably mph?), we see him do 8 pull-ups and crunches, the blender is filled to just below 16oz, which is probably closest to 15. The "vaccine" in the medical box is labled as CR 4-8151623 42 (not as subtle and definitely added on purpose. I'm probably reading way to into this but its interesting how all the numbers still line up with everything going on.
