Images from abc.com

SYNOPSIS - in this episode new developments occur that set the stage of whats to come from this season and the following season. first of all we learn more about Locke`s parents who not only I suspect abandoned him during his childhood but come back and work together to steal Locke`s kidney so his father could live longer. now if that isn't cruel I don't know what is. you get to feel a great sense of sympathy until Locke asks Boone to do his dirty work which causes Boone to seriously get injured. now the great mystery is how Locke saw the plane crashing into the island and Boone secret Nana death in his dream. did the island really communicate with Locke. can the island really perform miracles such as giving Locke strength for his leg and suddenly take it away. I suspect that there is something powerful and majestic about the island but it also has to do with the crew`s personal life that shapes how they view these miracles and interpret them to fit their needs. Locke obviously views the island as a place where he has gotten a second chance and he is meant to be here just like how he thought he was meant perform the"Walkabout" in Australia. whatever he thinks he is supposed to do didn't really go well when Boone got injured. without giving much attention to Boone`s health Locke returns to the hatch wondering why whatever he dreamed didn't work until a bright light appears from the window of the hatch.
