The Greater Good

Lost was finally new again last night and it was great to have it back. It's been so hard to wait for several weeks to find out what happens next. It's going to be so much worse having to wait 4 months for a new episode. Last night, we had one of the mysteries revealed. Locke told Sayid that he was the one who knocked him out and thwarted the mission to get a signal. Locke also took Sayid to the plane to get parts for his radio. In all of the previews leading up to tonight's episode, it looked like Sayid was going to shoot Locke in the chest. It turned out to be Shannon who stole the gun because she wanted payback for Boone's death. She asked Sayid to do it, but he couldn't take another man's life. Thankfully, the bullet just grazed Locke. Hopefully no one else will die this season. This week featured Sayid in the flashbacks. We learn that he was in Australia helping the CIA stop his friend from detonating a bomb. We also learn that his girlfriend is alive and well, working in Irvine, California. It's pretty sweet that they have her working in my hometown. He was on his way back from Australia to see her when the plane crashed. In the final two episodes of the season, we will get some more mysteries solved. I can't wait to see what is in the hatch. I also hope that the raft doesn't work. I cannot imagine they would allow several main characters to leave the show. I can't wait until next week's all new episode.
