The Home Theater Hatch

I have to take back what I said in one of my original “10 reasons why Lost sucks”, but only a little bit.  Something actually did happen.  But it mostly just lead to more questions as usual.  Two people were shot.  Yeah! Action at last!  This was a good thing because 1.  The Anna-whatever chick had run out of people to scowl at, and really needed to die.  2.  No one could ever buy that the other chick would go for Hurley, so she needed to die too.  The other plot in the episode was Echo and John setting of on a little camping trip to find the question mark, which brings us to a cheap trick that they pulled with the previews last week. They showed the clip of Echo falling off a cliff, only to have it turn out to be a dream.  This is not the first time the show has used this tactic to get viewers, and frankly, it sucks.  Anyways, they end up finding another hatch, and this time it leads to a pimped out home theater room with multiple screen and even a sweet VCR.  Those Dharma dudes knew how to have fun!  They even had the vacuum tubes, like at the bank drive through.  The episode ends with Hurley’s chick dying after trying in vain to identify her killer, only to have the good doctor say “no he’s fine”.  So Michael’s plan to stir everyone up by killing 2 people and letting the “other” go seems to be working.  At least something happened.
