Vivace con brio: Cultural Enlightenment in LOST 6.16 “What They Died For” by Pearson Moore
LOST Theories, Recaps/Reviews, Season 6
It was one of the most delightfully playful scenes in the last six years.
Desmond, in league with Hurley, exploiting Ana Lucia’s tendencies toward self-enrichment to stage a jail break for two most important players in the final moves on the grand Cuatro chessboard.

It’s morning in LA X, and Dr. Shephard makes his way to the bathroom. Once there, he notices something very peculiar, indeed.
Dude, you really need to stop eating PB&J in bed.
Little Jack Jr. interrupts his pop and says he’s made breakfast. They sit down to a big ol’ hearty bowl of Super Bran and it becomes quite obvious how Jack got his neck wound – he probably blew out a vein in the bathroom after all that fiber. David asks his dad if he’s coming to the concert tonight, and Jack says absozooberutely.
