Chasing 'Lost' Season 5: The Incident

May 14, 2009 at 1:01 AM | by Todd | 1 Comment

Just where in the world is LOST? Each episode, we're looking at the real and fictional locations of LOST from a travel perspective, and plotting them on our Google map. Be sure to check out all the map points, updated weekly!

This week, it's the big season finale. We have a few spoilers, so don't read any further if you are playing catch-up with your Tivo. Will the Island blow-up? Will Juliet and Sawyer sail off into the sunset in that tin can submarine? Will they ever stop creating more questions? Doubtful. The finale spends a lot of time introducing us to the legendary Jacob -- who looks like any other random guy on the island. The thing is, he keeps showing up in everyone's lives at different points. Everybody has met Jacob at some point in their journey. With all that travel, we sure hope he's banking all those frequent flier miles.

When not traveling the world, it seems Jacob enjoys the textile arts. He spins his own yard and actually has a loom. If you dig fabrics and other textiles, you might want to make a trip to Colonial Williamsburg to check out the DeWitt Wallace Decorative Arts Museum and the Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Folk Art Museum.

Back in the underground temple, Jack and the gang are trying to dismantle Jughead in order to transport the nuclear warhead part over to the Swan where that crazy electromagnetic energy thing is happening. On a different part of the island, we run into Rose, Bernard and Walt's dog, Vincent. As it turns out, they've been enjoying a quiet life in the jungle together, and are not interested in helping detonate the bomb to make everything go back to normal.

So, what's in the shadow of that foot statue? Well, what's inside is more interesting. Apparently, this is where Jacob lives and does his weaving projects. Locke and Ben go in to confront him, and Ben ends up stabbing him and Locke pushes him into the fire pit. Outside the statue, an Ajira cargo box is opened to reveal John Locke's corpse. So, who just pushed Jacob into the fire?

Jack manages to toss the warhead down the mineshaft -- and there's no explosion. However, everything gets super magnetized and starts flying down the hole, including some construction equipment and Juliet, who survives the fall, but bashes the warhead with a rock until the screen goes white. And that's where the story ends for now. Did the island blow up? Will the castaways wake up mid-flight on Oceanic 815? Naturally, for every answer revealed, two new questions surface, and we'll have to wait until Season 6.
