The following information was gathered from Lostpedia, a site dedicated to keeping track of everything you can possibly think of that happens on LOST.

Maybe ya’ll already know this, but it was news to me, so I’m posting it!

By now we all know the numbers (4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42) correlate to our remaining, original losties (Locke, Reyes, Ford, Jarrah, Shephard, Kwon).  However, closer examination of the remaining names and numbers (by other very lovely, meticulous LOST fans) reveals a few blasts from the past.  [To see the entire list as currently posted, check out the complete comparative table at Lostpedia.]

#20 — Rousseau [Danielle]

#31 –  Rutherford [Shannon]

Previously on LOST:  Kate sheds the marshall and her handcuffs.  Claire barely avoids giving birth after Aaron’s adopting parents renege on the deal.  Claire gives Kate her credit card as thanks.  TEMPLE: Jack survives taking the pill intended for Sayid.  Over tea, Sensei claims Sayid is cultivating inner darkness (like “yer sister”).  NEW OTHERTON: Sawyer sets up for a major post-Juliet pity party. Kate leaves him behind. BEACH: Mock Locke tosses an unconscious Richard over his shoulder, yells at everyone and marches off.  JUNGLE: Claire suddenly appears to rescue Jin. [This new (and dirty) Claire will henceforth be known as CLAIRUSO thanks to LOSTblog's very own Tina (@lostdogs20)!]

Begin LOST Episode 6.04  ”The Substitute”

____________________________________

A van pulls up in suburbia. John Locke exits via wheelchair lift (weird noises), which jams halfway down.  He jiggles the red lever.  He roll/jumps the ramp (He thought that would work?), and lands flat on his face on the lawn.  The auto-sprinklers kick on.  He chuckles at the absurdity.  Weirdness alert: Helen comes outta the house, shuts off the water and rescues him.

Mental Notes:  Last time we saw Helen, John was crying over her grave.  John is wearing EXACTLY the same clothes he wore on Oceanic 815 except for the SHOES.  And what’s with the weird hand/ear thing just outta the van?

The bathroom. John sits in the tub sipping from a coffee mug and dangling swatches.

• Helen: Planning a wedding sucks! Let’s just go to Vegas. We can bring your dad!
• John: Nah. My SMOKIN’ hot, soon-to-be wife deserves better.
• Helen: How was the conference?
• John: Uhhh–
• Helen: (finds card) Who’s Jack Shephard the spinal surgeon?
• John: Uhhh– OH yeah, I met him at lost luggage (HAHAHAHAHA!). He’d lost something too.
• Helen: That sounds like destiny to me!
• John: Maybe.

Weirdess alert: John’s DAD?! What conference? I seem to remember John telling fake, 911 Helen that he’d saved up his vacation days and bought two tickets on his own.  Hm.  Also, VERY weird noises heard over cut between LA_X and ISLAND (which repeat throughout the show).

Can I just say this one thing: I. Love. Hurley. Total man-crush on the dude-spewing dude. He is the voice of the audience on the crazy island and also the moral center for the troop of survivors. He’s often a bystander, but when he takes action, he takes it decisively. And this is the episode where we begin to uncurl the awesomeness of Hurley (aka Hugo Reyes). We also get the first peek or the mind-scrambling question of ‘The Numbers’. What do they mean, why are they EVERYWHERE. Get your easter basket and dive in with us for an easter egg hunt in this episode of LOST.
