LOST Outlaws

"Thank you, boar expert" - James 'Sawyer' Ford

Original episode air date: 2/16/05

In this episode:
Being triggered before it was a thing, Sawyer screws up a shooting (again), killing it with science, better boar communication skills, and a real character crossover!

In other news, Lisa was dealing with severe allergies and absolutely hates her voice in this episode and nearly has a heart attack recalling a baseball memory. Agnes wants you to send us your never have I ever suggestions (let's see how drunk you can get us), and barely moves up in degrees.

SPEAKER_00

Hey listener, Lisa here. Just wanted to give a brief intro about this episode. This episode was actually recorded a couple of weeks ago. And right now, in light of everything going on across the country and across the world, most of us are in quarantine, myself included. Just wanted to let you all know that we're feeling okay and we are hanging in there. We are doing the best that we can. We hope you are too. I know it's hard being stuck at home sometimes, and if you need anyone to talk to, feel free to reach out. We are a community. We want you to know that we are here for you, and we hope that you are doing the best that you can under the circumstances. Thank you so much for listening.

SPEAKER_01

I'm Agnes. And welcome to this episode of Sassin's Sips, where every week we drink and dish, and we will discuss an episode of Lost in Order. Today we're gonna talk about Outlaws. Uh, we're gonna try to avoid spoilers as best we can. We're not experts, just fans.

SPEAKER_02

We are professional TV watchers. What are you talking about pretty much? And we drink a lot. I don't know how the timing is gonna be when this comes out. For the 40% of the country that thinks the corona beer is something to do with the coronavirus. I'm waiting for Corona to go on sale. I'm so horrible. I'm just sorry, it's just something that's so asinine. How can you not comment on it? It's not a gray area, it's not an opinion, it's a fact. The beer has nothing to do with the virus.

SPEAKER_01

Maybe the corona beer is the actual antidote. In that case, we'll be fine. And on that note, while I wait for Corona to go on sale, I got a Stella.

SPEAKER_02

You and I both. I actually love Stella. I love my Stellas. Um Outlaws. We're way off track, aren't we?

SPEAKER_01

Speaking of commercials, if you don't want episodes that have commercials in them, check out our Patreon because we do offer ad-free episodes and we have three different tiers. So that's another way you can support this podcast and help us and not have to listen to us to try to sell you something. Although the things that we're selling are cool, we like them, otherwise, we wouldn't bother. So, either way. This episode is kind of unique in a sense because it's a flashback, but it's a dream. Right, yes. He's dreaming about what happened, but we're in a sense getting his flashback.

SPEAKER_02

Right. Okay, so I haven't seen that before. They haven't done their flashback in that way before. Does that come out in English? Look at all my notes. I got a lot of bullet points here.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, so it's 1976 in the flashback. As a child, Sawyer is placed under his bed by his mother. She tells him not to come out from under it, no matter what. He lays there and hears a gunshot from outside the room. The door opens and a man enters. Sawyer's father sits on his son's bed and shoots himself.

SPEAKER_03

Get under the bed.

SPEAKER_01

Can we just talk about what a scary fucking scene this is?

SPEAKER_02

I don't want to use the word traumatized lightly, but watching, I was like, Yeah. It's triggering. Yes, very much so.

SPEAKER_01

I mean, this is this is before trigger warning. But if this episode was on today, there would be a trigger warning before that scene played, I'm sure of it. Even when I was a first-time watcher, this gives you so much more depth to him. And even though we kind of knew from the letter, you don't realize how traumatic that was for him as a character.

SPEAKER_02

And being in it in that moment, seeing it with him is awful. And to be quite honest, like I've always liked Sawyer, always liked him. But at this point, you have to look like a city when he's gone through. He's pretty, he's pretty normal. Like, I think his behavior is a little pushing. He's like, he's digging when he talks to people. But the messages he's trying to get across and relate to people make sense. The way he does it, you're like, okay, dude. But he's pretty damn normal considering what he's been through as a child. Like, I couldn't even imagine all that fun stuff that he had, you know. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Next flashback is in 2004. Years later, Sawyer enters the hotel room with a young woman named Mary Joe. They kiss, but before they can continue, a man reveals himself. Sawyer recognizes him as Hibbs and ushers Mary Jo out. He threatens the intruder due to some apparent history between the two. Hibbers Sawyer a document to make them even for the Tampa Job. Hibbs explains that he has found the real Mr. Sawyer, the man who conned Sawyer's parents and caused his father to shoot his mother and then himself. Hibbs tells him the man, now named Frank Ducket, is in Australia. Over here we get mention of the Tampa Job, which must have been some shit, and Frank Ducett, who we met in Australia. Arriving in Australia, Sawyer heads out to the harbor to acquire a gun from one of Hibbs' contacts. The man warns Sawyer that you never know yourself until you point a gun at a man. Sawyer heads to a shrimp stand where Ducket is working. Did you recognize Ducket?

SPEAKER_02

I did when I saw it, but now that I don't now that I have a long goal, I don't remember what I remembered.

SPEAKER_01

It's Cyrus. Yes, it's scandal. Okay, yes. He loads the gun and has a perfect opportunity to kill the man. But after engaging in conversation with the man, Sawyer finds he cannot go through with his plan. And Frank turns around to see nothing but a car driving away. Sawyer heads to a bar, drinking shot after shot, and meets Jack's father.

SPEAKER_02

Yes, I saw I caught that one. I thought that was so funny. Did you realize it was him before they showed his face? No, I don't yeah, no. I'm not that into the show that I recognize voices. But once I showed, I'm like, oh shit, that's so funny. And I saw us talking, I'm like, oh shit. Okay.

SPEAKER_01

The two chat, and Christian mentions his trademark saying, that's why the Red Sox will never win the World Series. Who, as a side note, won the fucking series that year. Fucking Red Sox. Okay. Yeah. Had they won before the episode was aired? They had already won, I want to say, when the episode aired. This was as a Yankee fan, this was the worst year ever. Okay?

SPEAKER_02

I remember you could blame Lost for that.

SPEAKER_01

I remember being at work. Okay. The Yankees are three games up, the Red Sox zero. We should have had it. We just needed that last game to go to the World Series. And the fucking Red Sox came and beat us four games straight. So for those who are listening.

SPEAKER_02

For those who are listening, Lisa and I are on Skype. So I'm looking at her facial expressions while she's telling us this story. And she's obviously very disturbed to this day. Just want you guys to know. But her pain is suffering. As are all New Yorkers, I granted, but you really should see her face. I wish you could see her face.

SPEAKER_01

When you're a New Yorker, you're most likely a Yankee fan or a Met fan. Okay. Let's be real. Met fans are used to losing. Yankee fans are not. But but but as a Yankee fan, losing is not such a big deal unless it's to the fucking Red Sox.

SPEAKER_02

Fucking Red Sox.

SPEAKER_01

And it's not that they just beat us one game. They fucking ended up sweeping us when we were one game short of sweeping them. And then they went to the fucking World Series. And then they won the fucking World Series. This is a very vivid memory for me. I can tell.

SPEAKER_02

Wait, wait, stop. Take a sip. Reset. That's right. Okay. Okay. We drink and sink. So I don't know if you noticed. I'm sure you have. But something I did notice that it's funny how everyone's I okay, the flashbacks, yes, there are writers are throwing them in for a reason, but the people are having these flashbacks, and they're things are jogging their flashbacks. At the same time, shit's happening on the island. It's kind of paralleling. So is it that these are these flashbacks or something these people are always thinking about in their lives? Or is the island in their heads? Dun dun dun. No, this this is just me being silly. Ignore me. Paralleling to islands, what's happening at the island?

SPEAKER_01

Paralleling, yes, but but about it being in their minds, like something in the forefront of their thought.

SPEAKER_02

Right. Which comes first? The chicken and the egg. Is this already in the forefront of my mind? Or is this the island?

SPEAKER_01

The egg came first, but it was from another species and turned into a chicken. I think that's been solved. You just killed it for me.

SPEAKER_02

I don't care. I mean, I used to always think it's like, which came first, chicken and the egg. I'm like the Motel Six. Like obviously. Hello. But she just killed it for me with science. Now, mind you, I know I say that jokingly because I am a total geek. I am a STEM black girl magic thing going on, but you killed it with science.

SPEAKER_04

Like sorry.

SPEAKER_01

Uh, where was I? Okay. Okay, we fucking read. All right. He also talks about his son who hates him, and that Christian is truly more proud of him than his son will ever know. Christian says that one phone call to his son could fix everything, but he is too weak to do it. Sawyer says that his business in Australia would ease his suffering, and so Christian convinces him that he must do it. At night, torrential rain hits as Ducett puts out the trash. Sawyer watches him from his car and pulls out his gun. He walks over to Frank, says Sawyer, and shoots him in the chest. He pulls the letter he has carried since he was a child and begins to read it. However, as he says, Dear Mr. Sawyer, Ducett's response of who causes him to stop. Sawyer realizes that Hibb has lied to him. Ducett was merely in debt to Hibbs and Hibb tricked Sawyer into being his free mercenary. Before he dies, Frank's last words are that it'll come back around. A stunned Sawyer stares at what he has done. Two things. One, I have used that phrase in a previous episode, and I know that you wouldn't have known. It'll come back around.

SPEAKER_02

Have you? I guess I'll pay attention to people speak.

SPEAKER_01

I hope. And two, this is the second time we see Sawyer shoot somebody and fuck it up for some reason. Well, technically speaking, it really wasn't his fuck up. He was used. No, no, no. You're right. But remember, we're seeing it opposite. So he shoots this guy and then realizes it's the wrong guy. Wrong guy. And I and maybe when he should shot the marshal, it was kind of like redemption for him. And then he fucked up. And then that's why he felt even worse about it. Because this would have been the right guy.

SPEAKER_02

Right. For the right reason. And I still can't. Oh, poor Sawyer.

SPEAKER_01

See, I love him even more now, poor dude. Okay, on the island. On the island is day 29. Sawyer wakes up to find a boar ransacking his tent. He chases it into the jungle, but before he returns, he hears whispers. Among them are the faint words, it'll come back around. The next morning, day 30, Sawyer tries to salvage items from the wreckage left by the boar. Said arrives to mock him, and Sawyer asks him.

SPEAKER_02

I'm over here raising my hand. So with the voices speaking, I think it goes back. I know. I'm like, I don't want to interrupt if I go forget it. I'm losing my segue moment. So you know how they always like they hear voices and hear shit at the most in at the most opportune time? Like the personal epiphany slash the island talking to them again. See, the island's in their heads, they're in their brains. Like it comes back around.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_02

Like it's like it's like the eye, like how the fuck are you gonna hear this these voices? Like, is it a personal epiphany that they have in these moments, or is it really the island once again just being like, it's weird.

SPEAKER_01

No, but that's a really good theory. Hold on to that.

SPEAKER_02

I need to drink some more. I'm pretty smart what I'm drinking.

SPEAKER_01

I hope you got a new stove so you can put that on the back burner. I got a couple of back burns going on here.

SPEAKER_02

That's page 101 in my coffee table book. All right, let me just I'm gonna start over.

SPEAKER_01

So next morning, that's okay. Sawyer tries to salvage items from the wreckage left by the boar. Said arrives to mock him, and Sawyer asks him about what he heard when he was returning to camp after being kidnapped by the French woman. Said speaks about the whispers, but Sawyer shrugs it off when asked if he heard them too. So they both hear whispers and then they both kind of deny it. So much could be just solved, and if you know, if they would just talk to each other.

SPEAKER_02

Oh my god, you you actually want them to communicate? What the hell's wrong with you? Do you know 90% of things in life would be solved if people just communicate? But anyway. And communication and more than just speaking, it's about actually shutting up and listening to understand, not to re-but. Except for this conversation, except for you know this podcast. We're just free balling over here.

SPEAKER_01

But yeah, I like that phrase, free balling, because I can just imagine balls just being all free and we we have a counterpart phrase in our house too. Which is free lipping. Free lip.

SPEAKER_02

I can see lips just see I'm just gonna smack it all over all free free lipping, free ball is everyone's all free and happy and airing shit out.

SPEAKER_00

SPEAKER_01

In the jungle, Kate returns a gun to Jack that she had borrowed. Jack mentions that there is one gun left to get back, and Sawyer has it. While Jack does not mind, Kate is adamant she can get it. Meanwhile, at the caves, Claire tells Charlie that she has started to remember things through dreams about him. Her attempts to reach out to him don't seem to work, however, as Charlie brushes off her offer of going for a walk together. Sawyer is tracking the boar in the jungle when he once again hears whispers. And again, hears, it'll come back around. The boar then appears behind him, charging straight ahead. Sawyer tries to run, but the boar knocks him to the ground in the mud. Son of a bitch.

SPEAKER_02

Okay, so this whole thing with Sawyer and the Boar is cracking me the fuck up. I think it's the funniest storyline thus far. And I kind of feel if Sawyer and the Boar could just like talk it out. Boar to man to boar and come to a resolution. You know, get the same page about shit. I think they can work it out, you know.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know who's hard-headed, the boar or Sawyer though.

SPEAKER_02

Yes.

SPEAKER_01

Back at his tent, Kate is enjoying herself as Sawyer tells her about what has happened. He is convinced that the boar is harassing him, and he grabs his gun to take revenge. Further down the beach, Hurley and Charlie drag Ethan's body to an area where he can be buried. Hurley asks Charlie if he is alright, but he does not respond. Hurley heads for Saeed's tent saying he thinks Charlie might be suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder as he has recently shot and killed a man. This scene between Charlie and Hurley is funny and sweet. It's sweet because Hurley is aware that Charlie is suffering and he's trying to look out for him. But it's funny because he's like, I know how this ends. He comes back to life and he gets me because I'm big and I get cramps.

SPEAKER_02

I'm a little offended how everyone kind of like side-eyes and demiss and dismisses Hurley when he says something, but he always has a valid point that he's making. They're kind of like, no side, you know, not the whole they're gonna come back to life and kill me.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, but when they showed his hand, they showed a scene where they're talking and Ethan's body is laying and only his hand is out. You were waiting for it to move though, weren't you?

SPEAKER_02

Yes, I was, but I kind of get like I totally on Hurley's side, like with the whole golf thing. Like initially, they always kind of like eh, Hurley, and then like, oh duh, he was right. Oh, wait, he has a point. The fuck, dudes, listen to the man. We're gonna get more of that soon. He's go I need him to show, yeah. Hurley, I'm team Hurley. We are gonna get so much more of that soon. Maybe because I'm always side-eyed and put off to the side with so I take offense to it for him. I feel your pain, my brother.

SPEAKER_01

Kate catch. Up with Sawyer in the jungle, highlighting his complete inability to track the boar. I still think it's the funniest shit ever. She offers to help him in return for car carte blanche. A blank check. If she wants anything from his stash in the future, she will get it. No questions asked. Sawyer reluctantly agrees. As night falls, the two may camp and Sawyer offers Kate some liquor from the plane if she will play a game of I Never with him. You wanna play?

SPEAKER_02

Weren't we just talking about that? We'll literally just talk about Never Have I Ever. God, that shit was funny. I was like, what the hell? Okay, okay.

SPEAKER_01

The two then ask each other a number of questions, revealing a lot of sensitive facts, such as that Kate was once married. The game ends dramatically, however, as both drink when the topic of I never killed a man revealing that they both have at a point in their past. Sawyer says it looks like they have something in common after all. You wanna play I Never? Okay. So you drink when you've done it, right? Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_02

I'm gonna end up drunk as fuck.

SPEAKER_01

Alright, so been to college. So I'll take a drink. Been married. Fuck, I'll take a drink. Well, damn, I'm too sober now. What the fuck? Been to Disneyland. Never been to Disneyland. See, so it was like, no, that's just sad. But I've been to Disney World.

SPEAKER_02

But have you like listen? You look at those tickets, that's the prices, that's sad.

SPEAKER_01

Okay. Uh yeah, I think, and then I've never killed a man. And neither have. I mean, unless you consider Alex slowly dying by being married to me.

SPEAKER_02

A slow and painful death. I but you know the funny thing is, most people will either say yes or no. I'm like, I know. I gotta go, I had to think about it. I just had to make sure.

SPEAKER_01

All right, well, that's that's a hard no for me.

SPEAKER_02

So no, pretty sure I haven't. So on this round of never have I, I suck. I'm boring. I yeah. All right, so come up with your own. We should do uh an addendum of us playing this and see how twisted we can get. Sounds like a challenge. People submit their questions to us. Yes, I love that. Never have I. And let's see how twisted drunk we can get. Okay or embarrassed. I'm not embarrassed, but you think I'm done. I don't give a fuck. I don't give a fuck about you or anything. Okay, that's all stuck in my head today.

SPEAKER_01

From last night? The past week. During the night, Sawyer dreams of his childhood hiding under the bed. Instead of his father in the room, however, he sees a boar and hears it'll come back around once again. The next day, Kate wakes him up saying he's shaking. They realize that the camp has been attacked by the boar for a second time, but that it only destroyed Sawyer's items and left Kate untouched. Locke finds them, saying he was looking for plane wreckage and thought he would come say hello. They tell him about recent events and Locke talks about a dog that appeared to his foster mother after her daughter died. The pet stayed with her, sleeping on the daughter's bed every night until his mother died. Kate asks whether he thought it was his sister, but Locke says that what mattered was his mother's belief in it.

SPEAKER_02

I find it animals know when you need them. I I firmly believe that in some cosmic kind of way. And I'll say more about the boar and Sawyer at the end of this little synopsis you give.

SPEAKER_01

I like the way Locke approached it. First of all, when he comes into the scene, Sawyer's all pissed off and bent out of shape about the boar. And he hears the noise and he pulls his gun. Locke comes in sucking on a mango, like sub dudes.

SPEAKER_02

What up?

SPEAKER_01

I thought and I think Locke is barely connected to the island.

SPEAKER_02

That's one.

SPEAKER_01

Like he's just totally undisturbed by the fact that Sawyer has a gun in his face.

SPEAKER_02

Well, if you go by his past history, Locke isn't really afraid of him hitting him.

SPEAKER_01

So you know he's got a good shot of making it. Sorry, Sawyer. Okay. And it's like, hey, just thought I'd say good morning. Let's have some coffee. I like that.

SPEAKER_02

Because listen, living on this island is their new normal. You might as well just like walk up to your neighbor and have coffee with them.

SPEAKER_01

And then tells the story about the dog. And then he's like, well, that's just silly. Like, totally unfazed. And so Locke is telling the story about his sister who broke his neck and dog. And Sawyer's face is like, what the fuck? You can see he's like looking over at Kate like, what the fuck? Is this man on crack? Like, what in the ever loving fuck? He don't know what to do. He don't know. If he should just shut up and listen or be like, shut the fuck up. Like, what's wrong with you, man? Like, like, how does this have anything to do with a book?

SPEAKER_02

But it does. It really does. My man Locke's a genius.

SPEAKER_01

I love you, Terry.

SPEAKER_02

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

If there's like an MVP of episode of the episode, I think Locke would be it for this episode. Absolutely. Just for that scene. Absolutely. Said finds Charlie by the shore, and Charlie soon understands why he is there. Charlie says he feels no guilt over what happened, as it was to protect the survivors from an evil man. Said tells Charlie about the first man he killed and how he woke up every night after for a long time before he could accept what he had done. What happened with Ethan will be with Charlie for the rest of his life, and Saeed says that he is not alone, whether he pretends he is or not. Sawyer and Kate manage to find the boar's waddle and discover a baby hog. Sawyer waves the boar in the air to attract his parent, much to Kate's disgust. She shouts for him to let the defenseless creature go, and on his refusal, she kicks his leg, causing him to trip and release the piglet. There she goes hitting him again. He likes hitting him. She tells him to find his own way home and walks away. Continuing his search, Sawyer finally comes face to face with the adult boar. He pulls out his gun, ready to shoot, but decides he cannot kill it. The similarities between the boar and Zucket in his past are not lost on Sawyer. And when Kate reveals herself again, Sawyer says, It's just a boar. He heads back to camp. At the beach, Charlie finds Claire, offering to take that walk with her now. The two head off along the beach as Charlie finally confronts his feelings about killing a man. Elsewhere, Jack is chopping wood when Sawyer arrives with his gun. He eventually hands it over. And when Jack says, That's why the Sox will never win the series, Sawyer remembers Christian saying the same thing on Australia. He realizes the son Christian spoke of was Jack, but says nothing.

SPEAKER_02

But I knew he wasn't gonna say anything. Like at that moment, I'm like, he's not gonna say anything to him.

SPEAKER_01

Why do you think he didn't say anything? Because that's just Sawyer being Sawyer. We learned Sawyer's real first name in this episode. I'm sure we did. It's James. I knew that. I know. I know you did. I was just helping you. I was just reminding you. Yeah, you reminded, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We get our first direct crossover between Christian and Sawyer.

SPEAKER_02

I don't know how I know, but I know they're all somehow connected. Maybe because I want it to be true. Like there need there needs to be some kind of connection between all the characters of this nature.

SPEAKER_01

On the theme of connections, you've got Sawyer being seen in Boone's flashback. When at the police station. And now you have him talking to Jack's dad.

SPEAKER_02

What's next? What's next? Other than them being the same plane, you know, obviously.

SPEAKER_01

We get a firsthand look at Sawyer's dad's shoes and how fucked up Sawyer's dad was.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, right? You're telling a man by his shoes.

SPEAKER_01

I mean, obviously it was deliberate to only shoot it that way. And I guess it I guess in some ways it's probably scarier to have the child's perspective. Yeah. And it's funny because in the scene with Christian, he even mentions how he must have misplaced his wallet. And that goes back to when Jack is talking to the hotel guy and he's like, oh, and he left his wallet here.

SPEAKER_02

Yes. Good job, writers.

SPEAKER_01

In a previous episode, you mentioned that Sawyer wanted to be punished for his past. So after seeing this episode, do you still agree? Why or why not?

SPEAKER_02

First of all, I'm very deep at times. Okay, um, even when I'm not even trying to be. Yeah, just to piggyback off what you said earlier about I killed he killing the wrong person. And I think on some level, back to his past trauma as a child, children unfortunately take on things that are not their fault. And I think on some level, when it's a traumatic experience, what he's gone through, I think he took on some of that guilt, survivor's guilt or whatever. And on top of who knows what her life was growing up after that. But um, yeah, I think that on top of killing the wrong person, and he's just kind of fucked up about it. He needs to be punished. He feels he deserves to be punished, he doesn't deserve to have whatever people think you deserve in life. So yeah, I stand by that. I think the reasoning I said it changed, knowing more, but I still stand by it. One more question. Just one.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, maybe two. What do you think the meaning of it'll come back around is?

SPEAKER_02

Lord have mercy. Um, in Sawyer's case, let's see. What can it mean? What do I think it means, and what do you think he what I think he thinks it means?

SPEAKER_01

What do you think Frank Ducket meant by it? What do you think it means when Sawyer hears it?

SPEAKER_02

Well, obviously the the easy answer is karma. Like everything would you put out, you get back. I um I honestly believe that. Um you put out negative things and in it, you put out negative things, it comes back to you. You could have positive, it comes back to you. It'll come back around with him. It could mean a plethora of things. It could it can mean you're gonna get your chance to make things right, at least in his mind, in his own head. It can also be like whatever the real story did to you, it's gonna come back to him. It could be anything and everything. I'm not drunk enough to be this deep today.

SPEAKER_01

Did you have a favorite scene from the episode?

SPEAKER_02

The scene per se, no, but this him is so aggravated, so like, ah, freshman. I just thought it was the funniest shit. That made me happy. And it was just funny to me. I was like, this shit is hysterical. He's very easily pissed off. Right. I was like, this boy got the best of you, really. And no matter how much he self-sabotages and this overall pain in the ass, I like him immensely more than like Jack. I just want to throw it out there. I really don't like Jack. Like, I really don't. And your thoughts on the title? Outlaws. I mean, he lives as an outlaw. He's a con man. And what else is about? I really didn't give much thought to it.

SPEAKER_01

I feel like it takes Kate into account as well because it's outlaws. Oh, that's true. And then you have that that scene between him and Kate talking about they killed a man. Yeah. And they have oh, another question was pretending that they want Cart Vlange to spend time. Yes. And I think that that was was connected. Trivia time. Woohoo! Sawyer's first name is revealed to be James when he is talking with Frank Ducett at the shrimp stand. Oh, here, here. The Boston Red Sox had won the 2004 World Series by the time this episode aired, but it had not yet occurred at the time of the events of the episode taking place, according to the timeline. Cool. This episode was the first of the final nine episodes after the show was picked up for the entire season after the initial 13-episode order. This is number 14, that makes sense. Emily De Raven becomes a full series regular in this episode. Previously, she had only been credited when she appeared. Her contract was adjusted by as ABC gave the show a full season pickup, ordering the nine additional episodes needed to complete the season order. Ian Summerholder, Boone, and Maggie Grace, Shannon, did not appear in this episode. This is the first time either character had been absent. Sun and Jin and Michael appear without speaking lines. And this episode marks the first appearance of the raft. And it's all comes right up. Right, right, right, right. Yeah. Characters. After seeing another Sawyer episode and getting more into his backstory. Talk about how your thoughts on him. How have they changed since you first? Everything I've said the last hour. Okay, there you go. Okie dokie. Quite succinct. The next episode is a Jin episode. Yes. Okay. Looking forward to that. Thoughts on Jin going into it?

SPEAKER_02

I can't give you any thoughts going into it because I saw the episode, so I feel like my opinions would be colored. But if I can remember correctly, I was looking forward to it because I want more information. I want more. I find their dynamic interesting. I'm such a bad, bad girl. I'm just a rebel.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, the horror of you watching more episodes because you might actually be moving up the degree ladder. 93. It's still the right direction. So 93.

SPEAKER_02

Isolate me. Yeah. I mean, listen, to be honest, in the interest of transparency, even if I did a complete 180, I probably wouldn't tell you because it's so much fun, it's so much more fun. So focus you a little bit. I mean, I'm not a 180 yet. I'm honestly not. But even if I was, I probably wouldn't tell you. I'm just gonna. That's all right.

SPEAKER_01

Because this goes both ways. This is like when I start asking you shit, I mean like, and remember this, and I'm full of shit. I hate you. I know, I know. So don't worry, I get mine back. But in the interest of transparency, I have seen the show. You're not as surprised you've seen the show. No, but but I will say this there are a lot of intricacies, and I don't really remember all of them. So some of them as I watch, I'm like, oh right.

SPEAKER_02

So it's kind of new to you too.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, and some of the later episodes, like like parts of four, five, and six, I kind of don't do that.

SPEAKER_02

That was fucking awesome. We had a whole conversation, just facial expressions here.

SPEAKER_01

No, but I just I kind of forgot some of the some of the plot line. So I'm I'm actually really excited about getting back and watching and watching. So like I forgot how much I forgot how much I forgot. If that makes sense.

SPEAKER_02

It makes total sense because you know, I'm like that every day by everything in my life. And as we're talking, I'm over here like loving and playing with my kid, my with my with gizmo. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Nope. Nope. Nope. Gizmo.

SPEAKER_01

Please stay tuned next week when we will be discussing dot dot dot in translation. Yes, you said dot dot dot. Okay. I did. I actually said it. Like an ellipsis? Ellipsis in translation.

SPEAKER_02

Or I don't know.

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_01

Did you ever name them? Not really. So if you have ideas for a brother and sister black cat I had a shitload of ideas at first, but I don't hear me.

SPEAKER_02

Uh okay, where were we?
