I don't think the island is hell, purgatory or anything of that nature. Although I'm not an expert I don't think you can drive a submarine, freighter, or anything else to either of these places.

My anger is growing by the episode. Maybe I'm just in a negative mindset to insulate myself from what I see as inevitable disappointment, but these episodes all feel like filler to me and not progress. This was what? The 9th episode before the finale? And we got to see Richard's past, but the first half hour did nothing to progress the storyline.

With how they are going and really trying to make it out to be good vs evil/ purgatory(again) it's not gonna be in the end. They really seem like they are preping to just take another right turn which will lead the show in it's last direction.

I decided at the beginning of the season with all the hype and expecting to much that i was just going to enjoy it even if i didn't enjoy it lol. I rather not be mad in the end and just enjoy the show for being addictive and just mostly enjoyable.

Yep, I said the same thing to Melissa. It was nice to learn about Richard, but 80% of the episode, if not more, didn't do more for the overall story. They really are running out of time, unless they plan on really just rattling everything off in one episode.

It probably won't even be an episode. Just a black screen with white text in bullet points giving off the facts and diagrams made in MS paint. This is where stag has really been all these years.

Wishful thinking, but I was hoping the package was Walt/Aaron. Desmond makes sense though. With his "anomaly" status in island lore.
