First and foremost, right now, you need to go to your calendar and clear off any plans for May 15th. The Office is a one-hour season finale, and then Lost follows. We couldn’t be more excited. In the immortal words of David Aames in Vanilla Sky (oh yeah, we’re going there): “I don’t care if God calls, I’m busy!” Here’s something from last night’s episode that probably won’t have an impact on the show, but is so damn cool – on the Easter Eggs site, they have a screengrab of Locke’s high school locker. In it, there’s the album cover of a band. For kicks, we googled the band. Naturally, they have been mentioned several times on the show. And who knows, in the end, there’s probably some larger meaning. The sci-fi geek in us completely loves this. We can’t recall another show like Lost, ever. Onward, to the SPOILERS

This is going to be more of a ramble than anything, and yes, we were taking notes because we’re nerdy like that …

* First, the biggie: So is Claire dead? This would be a crushing blow, since we love her and that accent. Reasons she likely is dead: She’s hanging out with Christian (who’s definitely dead) in Jacob’s cabin. She’s wearing a creepy grin. She has a mark on her head like the one she had when the rocket hit her house two weeks ago. Reasons she’s not: None, mostly it’s just hope.

* As floated by a commenter on the Easter Eggs site: Why has Christian, a dead man, been dressed differently in the last two weeks?

* Daniels from the Wire has now seen Hurley and Locke. Plus, he’s the one who gave the order to Naomi. We have no idea how the hell this guy ties in to the show. Is he on Ben’s side, or Widmore’s side?

* Who wants to tie these items together: Sand in the glass, the watch, and the comic book? And Young Locke picked up the knife on purpose, right? There were two other connections to the knife that we could think of – when Daniels from the Wire said you need to go on the “Walkabout” with a knife and your wits; and also when Locke threw that knife at Naomi to kill her. Hmmm.

* Scarier moment: When Claire appeared in the cabin, or when the camera flashed to Young Locke’s drawing of the Smokey thing killing someone?

* Regarding death – is the deal that you can die on the island, but not off of it? Because when that thug pulled the trigger at Michael’s head twice, that was our first thought. And they seemed to make a big deal out of that guy’s gun “being broken” on at least three occasions, which leads us to believe it wasn’t broken in the first place (remember, he checked the bullets).

* “We’re going to move the island.” Hmmm. Jacob’s house seems to move, right? We got nothing. And you’re far more perceptive than we are.
