Lost #1.4: Walkabout

This episode showed the hunting of boars that look like Muppets (or maybe Muppets that look like boars), mixed with some flashbacks about Locke, all in front of the background of having a mass memorial for the deceased plane passengers. These three storylines were good and dramatic, and told together well. I also enjoyed the Office Space reference regarding TPS reports during the flashback to Locke’s cubicle time.

I am unsure what to think of Locke, at this point, though his secret about suddenly having the ability to walk is probably behind the unsureness. He seems creepy, and continues to, as I assumed prior to this episode. But the secret makes him more sympathetic. But then, all his sly little grins make him more creepy again.

Come to think of it, I currently suspect most of the characters fishy: Locke, Sawyer, the father, Merry Brandybuck/bass player, the husband, Kate. What are they all up to?
