Good day all! What did you think of the enhanced version of Ab Aeterno last night? Besides loving it, because, of course, it was an episode of LOST. Even though they’re swamped, LOST production did get a few tweets in yesterday. The first one came from the beloved tweeting LOST editor Mark Goldman, who has been missing from, and missed by, Twitter lately:

Writer’s Note – Immense, immense apologies for both the lateness and length of this LOSTalypse. An episode such as Ab Aeterno is difficult to deal with. I apologize also for no new theories. I give you the story, and that is all. – Stefani
On Lost this week, we were given a fairytale of sorts, a campfire story, and yet so much more. With Ab Aeterno, we were given the gift of a glimpse into the life of the enigmatic Richard Alpert. Before he was Richard or Ricardus, he was Ricardo. And Ricardo was in love…
Help! I need somebody! Help! not just anybody! - Help, Lennon/McCartney
Once upon a time, a man visited a woman in the hospital. This man gave her a list of six names, six people, six Candidates. He told her to take them to the Temple and that Ricardus would know what to do next.
On the Island, Ilana tells her story and asks Richard what to do. He pauses long, and then lets out an incredulous giggle. How should he know what to do? Everything has been a lie. Richard says he knows a secret: they’re dead, all of them. They have been condemned to Hell. He then promptly states that he is leaving to find someone else to join, takes a torch, and goes. Jack sees Hurley speaking to someone in Spanish and asks what Jacob is saying. Hurley says it’s not Jacob and it’s none of Jack’s business.
Into the woods to get the thing that makes it worth the journeying… – Into the Woods, Stephen Sondheim
Previously on LOST [6.08 “Recon” Recap PENDING]: Sorry about that!
My lovely LOST readers, you are in for a TREAT! “Ab Aeterno” was CHOCK full of information. It was like eating a huge wedge of REAL cheesecake after fasting for 2 weeks! Whoof! I’ll do what I can, but to cover this episode best, the recap needs to be as meticulous and detailed as the episode itself. In fact, I think this episode is so very important to solving the mysteries on LOST, that it’ll need to be covered with a recap and analysis – but in two separate posts.
The thing to remember about this recap is that MOST of what happens in Richard’s “flashsideways” is derivative. That is, we’ve heard many of the lines and seen lots of the imagery before. Also, watch the seamless flow between the guys on the beach and Illana’s chat with Jacob.
WATCH CAREFULLY!

After six seasons, one of the most mysterious Island inhabitants is getting his own episode. That’s right, people – RICHARD ALPERT! And I must say, it’s about time. But before we dive into what is sure to go down as a classic Lost episode, let’s consider what we know about this enigmatic, possibly eternal, apparently guylined man. What about Richard?
“You do remember birthdays, don’t you Richard?” – Ben Linus, The Man Behind The Curtain
If you don’t know first and foremost that Richard is ageless, what show have you been watching?!?! That being said, I’m sure we all have our moment when we realized something was up with this Alpert guy. Mine came when Ben made his comment about birthdays to Richard in The Man Behind The Curtain. Bruna (@brunablack) and I discussed when we each first realized something was different about him…
Bruna: I mean, during the last S3 episodes he’s ALWAYS there, just watching everything Ben did
Bruna: And I started noticing him because of that, because he always observed quietly
Stefani: Yeah, he did. That kinda made me wonder who exactly he is.
Bruna : Aaaand turns out we’ve been wondering since then XD…
As has many a Lost fan. What we know is that Richard was given the gift – or a curse, depending on how one looks at it – of everlasting youth/possibly eternal life by Jacob. When this happened, we don’t know. It’s also been revealed, though not explicitly stated, that Richard arrived on the Black Rock as a prisoner of some sort. Then, he began his work for Jacob.
Richard would bring me your instructions – all those slips of paper, all those lists – and I never questioned anything. – Ben Linus, The Incident
Had a great call after the We ReWatch Wednesday with Erin, Chad, Niel, Kecia, Stefani, Jess and Jessa. Give it a listen and leave us a comment on what you liked, disliked, agreed disagreed, what we can do to make it different and better.

The MovieLine interview
Written by Kyle Buchanan
Since Lost’s third season, Nestor Carbonell has popped up several times on the show as the mysterious, ageless Richard Alpert, but when the sixth and final season premieres tonight, Carbonell will finally join the cast as a regular. It’s a sign that Richard (who seems inextricably linked to the island’s mythology) is going to prove pivotal in revealing many of Lost’s big secrets, but it’s also a tribute to the ingratiating slow burn Carbonell’s managed while revealing hardly a thing about Richard’s true nature.
Movieline spoke with the actor yesterday about what’s in store for Richard in season six, what we can expect from a Richard-centric episode, the tragic origin story of his much-discussed heavy eyelashes, and his willingness to play Khan in a potential Star Trek sequel.
