LOST: "Enter 77" [SPOILERS]
Oh, man. Somebody recently said that the Lindelof/Cuse penned episodes are the best for getting the story moving along, and it would seem that "Enter 77" was no exception.
I'm still a bit confused, though, as to the "theme" of the flashback this time as it relates to the show. Usually there is a thematic or conceptual connection between the flashback and the same character on the island. It didn't seem to work so well this time.
The full spoiler filled recap follows....
I'm still a bit confused, though, as to the "theme" of the flashback this time as it relates to the show. Usually there is a thematic or conceptual connection between the flashback and the same character on the island. It didn't seem to work so well this time.
The full spoiler filled recap follows....
Ping Pong Daddy
So lets just get this part out of the way. Long story short. They found an old-and-busted ping pong table out in the weeds somewhere, and Sawyer's got to play to win back his stuff. Hurley hands Sawyer's you-know-what to him and in the end gives him back his skin mags with a bit of a grin.
Purpose? Maybe just a continuity thing, I dunno. To show that Sawyer's missing Kate? Could be. Putting Sawyer in his place? Possible. Probably more to show that Hurley doesn't have any hard feelings towards him, judging by the exchange there at the end, which I think ties into the overall theme of forgiveness and reconciliation.
I think. That part is still a bit fuzzy.
The Cat, Part I
The flashback this time around was focused on everybody's favorite former Iraqi thumbscrew-turner, Sayid. He starts the episode working as a cook at a restaurant in (I think?) Paris. A strange man comes in and after complimenting Sayid on his cooking. He calls Sayid out on his heritage, and after a bit of conversation, offers him a job at his restaurant.
Sayid shows up at a well-to-do place, and is greeted warmly by "Sammy" and a bunch of other Arabic types. He introduces Sayid to his wife, and asks if he knows her.
Because he should. Supposedly Sayid tortured this woman back in Iraq, and it looks like some revenge is in order. The gang proceeds to jump Sayid and put him out.
He wakes up in the restaurant's cooler. Sammy is there and places a large bag that sounds like its full of tools(!) on the ground. He throws Sayid a bowl of water and tells him to drink it, rather like a caged animal.
Sammy tells Sayid who he thinks he is, and after some denials, Sayid finally admits that he was in fact in the Republican Guard. Supposedly he tortured Sammy's wife, for harboring the enemy (could this "enemy" have been his lost Nadia?) and his wife bears the "scars of the questions" forever. Sayid continues to deny it was he who did this, and Sammy tells him to admit it or he will only leave in this bag.
Sammy returns to the cooler later with his wife, a chair, and a piece of pipe. He continues to try and beat a confession out of Sayid. Sayid still denies it, saying it won't do any good, since he can't admit to something he didn't do. The wife has a concerned look on her face and says thats enough for today.
The wife returns, this time with a rather large long haired gray and white cat. (We'll get to that, don't worry!) There's what looks like an earring on the cat's collar. We were obviously meant to see it, so I wonder why?
She tells Sayid the story of how she got the cat. She rescued it from a group of boys who were torturing it, and how occasionally it forgets its safe and lashes out.
She forgives it though, because she knows what its like to never be safe. Because of Sayid. She only asks that he show her enough respect to admit what he did to her.
And he does admit it, and apologizes profusely. Her face has haunted him since he left Iraq. She agrees to release him, and says that we are all capable of doing what was done to the cat, but that she will not do that to him.
NOW. (long pause) Did Sayid merely admit to this to get free? Did the woman realize that he wasn't the one who did this? Did they both just play this out to the best conclusion just to get on their merry ways? I sort of got that feeling from her, that she realized she was wrong, but wasn't going to be the one to admit it.
And truthfully I don't understand how this flashback really ties in to the next story. Well, maybe at the very, very end of this episode.... which I'll explain there.
The Flame
Sayid, Locke, Kate and Rousseau are in the bush, looking for the Others' camp, heading on a course of North 305 (any reason you told us that C&D?) They stop to rest, and Sayid goes looking for some food.
He's picking some fruit when he hears a sound. It sounds like a cowbell (you can never have too much cowbell!) and sure enough he finds a large bovine entity grazing nearby. He acts like he's going to start preparing for a nice barbeque when he spots something else.
It's a house! A smallish blue house with a few animals surrounding it, and a large but older looking satellite dish on top! And sure'an'if there isn't our friend from the monitor in the Pearl station, Mr. Eyepatch!
The four of them try to figure out what to do next. Danielle says she's never seen this place (Wha? How long has she been here?) and gracefully ducks out since she has no interest in this man, that she's survived this long by avoiding confrontations like this. Well, OK(!)
Sayid puts up his hands and starts walking towards the house. He passes a horse with a rather nicely trimmed saddle, and a cat (see above.) A gray and white long haired cat. He stops and has a short staring contest with the feline, when he's shot in the arm. Yes I said shot.
Eyepatch starts yelling about how "they had a truce, that you weren't supposed to cross the line, that he lived up to his end, they had a deal." Sayid talks him down and he comes out, and Locke and Kate rush him and get him pinned down. Of course the obvious question is asked. "Who are you?"
With an obvious Russian accent he says, "I am Mikhail Bakuma(? sketchy on that, I'll correct it when I find out for sure) and I'm the last living member of the DHARMA initiative."
--BONK-- (<-- LOST Sound! )
OK, so we'll find out some more about this towards the end, but this requires one important question. Does this mean that Dr. Candle/Wickman is dead? Granted all the footage we've seen of him seems to be fairly old, but the last member? Hum. OK, back to it.
They take him back into the house at gunpoint. It looks to be a fairly well equipped little pad, in fact it looks quite similar to the "Others'" homes. Lots of books and music, and a decent furniture arrangement. Not something you'd expect from someone living alone.... There are some loudspeakers outside similar to what we saw around the Hydra station.
He is indeed Russian, former Soviet military who served in Afghanistan. After the war he was at a listening post in Vladivostok (! listening post? Hm!) and was dismissed from his military life. Kind of has a Desmond-like ring to it, doesn't it?
While he's explaining his situation, Kate is poking around the place. She finds a few cabinets with some DHARMA brand food and junk, and some papers with some red-pen corrections made (I didn't catch what was on it, was typing notes and missed it! I'll go back tonight!) There's a meat locker with some sides of animal, pork maybe?
The DHARMA initiative is rich, smart, and secretive. He's been there eleven years. (Does the math, that'd be two or so years after the fall of the CCCP.) He was tasked with keeping care of the computers and communications equipment. He's alone, a "lighthouse keeper." This station is called "The Flame," and its purpose is to communicate with the outside world. (!)
Shall We Play A Game?
Locke's poking around as well, and finds Mikhail's "workshop." There's another computer, with a chess game running. The words "Ready To Play (Y/N)" on the screen. A camera is above the table, with a red light on it. Is this the camera they saw from the Pearl?
The DHARMA initiative was destroyed by a "purge" as he calls it. And honestly I didn't make out what he said exactly (thick accent and all) but he survived by "not participating." There were "hostiles", that four men came and they arrived at a truce. He wouldn't cross an imaginary line and they'd leave him alone.
He doesn't know who they are, but they've been there a long time. A "very long time."
Mikhail proceeds to repair the damage done to Sayid's arm. As he's stitching him up, the cat is scratching up the rug, and he yells something in Russian at it. The cat's name is Nadia, and at that Sayid sort of bugs out.
He gets the lot of them some iced tea(!) and then goes to check on Locke, who is playing the chess game. In ten years of playing, Mikhail's never been able to win. It cheats. To which Locke says something to the effect of "it can't cheat, and that's one of the benefits of being human."
Kate and Sayid have a little aside conversation, and Sayid lets on that he doesn't think he is in fact DHARMA, but "one of them." And he's certain that Mikhail is not alone.
They talk about the wiring on the island, all the underground cables that connect the stations, about the cable to the ocean, and an underwater sonar beacon. They're used to summon vessels to the island, specifically submarines, like the one that brought him here. The "hostiles" either destroyed or commandeered it to his knowledge.
At this point they all start looking a bit edgy, and staring at each other in not-very-nice ways. Sayid mentions their sailboat, and how they lost it, "but at least we were able to kill one of them." And they all stare down each other some more. Mikhail says something like, "Well I see this has moved on to the next stage" and a fight breaks out between Sayid and Mikhail. Kate gets him at gunpoint and ends the fight. Oh, and Locke finally comes out of the workshop wondering what is going on (yeah, good of you to join us! sheesh!)
They've got him tied up, and they ask Sayid why he thinks there is another person. The horse was saddled up for a person much shorter than Mikhail. Locke has looked everywhere, he says, but didn't find anything.
And Sayid pulls back the rug to reveal a serious looking trapdoor, "You didn't look everywhere."
Don't Go Down There, It's Dark!
They pull up the hatch and head into the basement. There are lots of chains and wires, and a big DHARMA logo with the flame painted (looks to be by hand?) on the wall. There are lots of file boxes and books, and Sayid notices the entire foundation is rigged with explosives! He finds a rack of manuals, and we're shown two specifically, the "Food Drop Protocol" and "Operations Manual."
Locke, still upstairs, is beckoned by the chess game beeping in the next room. He leaves the still-unconscious Mikhail and goes back to the computer. He actually proceeds to beat the computer, and gets an evil-happy grin. Which quickly gets serious.
The screen switches to none other than Dr. Candle. Seems by beating the chess game he's activated a "manual override" (override to what exactly?) and has access to a video-tele-prompted menu! The good doctor rattles off some numbers, he presses "38" for mainland communcations. They're inoperative. "56" for sonar communications, that it seems is down as well.
"If this station has experienced an incursion by the hostiles, Enter 77."
Just as he looks about to do it, Mikhail appears and puts a knife to Locke's throat.
Down in the basement, Kate is looking at a rack of DHARMA jumpsuits, when she's jumped by none other than the notably-absent-from-other-affairs Mrs. Klugh! (spelling?)
She remains silent, and is forced upstairs and outside at gunpoint. They get into a standoff, Mikhail with Locke and Sayid and Kate with Klugh. They start shouting at each other in Russian(! TRANSLATION?! ARGH!) and they all yell to stop. Finally Mikhail shoots Klugh! Didn't see that coming!
They overpower Mikhail yet again, and he begs for them to "finish it," to kill him.
Kate loads up her guns with some DHARMA-branded bullets, and Locke's back at the menu, specifically the "Enter 77" option.
Sayid calls him out on his DHARMA credentials. He says that he was never a member, he came here after the purge. He's ordered to take them to "The Barracks", the Others' camp as its shown on a map (dammit! have to study that one too!), but he says "you can't make me lead you there."
Rousseau (hey where have you been?) asks why they need him alive if they have the map. Sayid says, "He is my prisoner, I will decide his fate."
Locke and Kate return, and about that time the Flame Station goes up in a big explosion. They all act surprised except for Locke. "What have you done!?" "The explosion will attract attention!"
And then we see Nadia the cat, staring back at Sayid from the brush.
Conclusions
Let's forget about Sawyer's table tennis tourney and focus on the Flame station. Yikes! So much information and so many "Easter Eggs!" I can't think >_< !
Now that I've written all of that, I think maybe Sayid's flashback has more to do with his power to decide the fate of others, to forgive or condemn them, rather than with just forgiveness itself. We saw the woman take this same power with Sayid, and now he seems to be exercising it over Mikhail, as he did with Ben back at the Swan. Maybe we should be looking at Sayid as sort of a "judge" figure?
And what about Mikhail? And Klugh?! Argh!
Also of an interesting note is something my wife pointed out as the Flame station exploded, "look, it really is a flame."
Which got me thinking. Was that station designation somehow supposed to represent that? Did somebody know that it would eventually go up in flames and look like that? If so, what does that mean for the other station names? There's a thought, yeah?
Questions
Next Time
What The Heck(tm) Are those things supposed to be? And what happens to Mikhail when he's pushed out into them!?

Questions
- Is Mikhail part of DHARMA or not? Is he an "Other"? Part of a still-different group?
- Are these "hostiles" the Others? Or maybe this hinted-at third group?
- Mikhail says four men made the truce with him. Ben, Tom... and who else? Which group?
- What's up with the cat? Is this the island "speaking" to Sayid just as Locke and Eko saw? Nadia was the name of the girl he sent away in Iraq, right? Could be something to that....
- What was on the "corrected" papers Kate found?
- Does Mikhail's map correlate at all with the "blast door" map?
- What was Klugh doing there? Why did she remain silent? More important, why did Mikhail kill her?
- What were Mikhail and Klugh shouting about in Russian!? (And what did Mikhail say to Nadia the cat?)
- What was in all of those file boxes, and what important information was destroyed with the DHARMA manuals?
- Will the Flame's destruction really attract attention? What kind of attention? Seems nobody cared when the Swan disappeared.
- Was the Vladivostok "listening post" the same as Penny's crew that saw the magnetic disturbance? (My Russian geography is a bit weak, sorry!)
Next Time
What The Heck(tm) Are those things supposed to be? And what happens to Mikhail when he's pushed out into them!?

And it appears Mikhail intentionally runs into the "security fence" to commit suicide (conveniently removing another source of info from the Losties possession).
Dang, these Others are SERIOUS people!
Ms. Klugh: Mikheil, you know what to do.
Patchy: ...Do we have a chance?
Klugh: We can't risk it... you know the circumstances.
Patchy: ... there IS another way..
Klugh: You know what to do, that is an order.
Patchy: We've GOT ANOTHER WAY!
Klugh: Do it Mikheil!
Patchy: I AM SORRY! (Shoots Klugh)
