Aloha I live in Honolulu and I was fortunate to attend the LOST 3rd season premiere. I dont have any experience typing up synopsis really, however I'll go with what I can
remember about the show:
Remember last season began with Desmond on his exercise bike with Mama Cass song "Make Your Own Kind of Music", well this season the song opens up with Petula Clark's "Downtown" with a woman named Juliet played by Elizabeth Mitchell (
http://imdb.com/name/nm0593310/).
You see The Others outside on a nice sunny day, wearing nice casual clothes and they look up and see the plane splitting apart in two. Henry Gale tells Ethan to go the crash site and pretend to be a survivor and the man Ana Lucia killed, Goodwin (
http://imdb.com/name/nm0191442/) was told to go to the other crash site. Then opening credits of the LOST begins...
We now see Sawyer, Jack and Kate all being held in different places. Sawyer appears to be in what looks like a animal cage one would find in a zoo, Kate looks to be in a lockeroom and Jack is in a dark chamber somewhere.
Kate is asked to take a shower and freshen up, start the day new, she takes a shower only to find her clothes are gone, she looks thru the lockers to find a nice dress and is told to put it on, she doesnt have much choice and there are no clothes around besides the towel around her so she puts it in. She is led to Henry Gale who is sitting in a nice dining table setting next to the ocean with breakfast, forks and knives, etc. He asks Kate to put handcuffs on so she wont try anything funny. Kate asks why has she been told to dress like this and why is she being given a nice breakfast and such. Henry Gale replies that he wanted her to feel civilized and enjoy the moment because for the next two weeks she will be going thru hell which made me think is she going to be put thru some sort of The Others version of a bootcamp??
Meanwhile Juliet attempts to give Jack some food, which he refuses, she asks him lots of questions and he sarcastically lies and says he is a repoman. She tells him he has to sit towards the wall in the corner so she can safely bring the food to him because he needs to eat and drink something because the medicine they gave him he may dehydrate. So he agrees to let her in and then attacks her threatening to break her neck, kill her, he is trying to find a way out of this holding chamber cell when he sees Henry Gale. Jack tells Henry Gale he will kill her if he doesnt answer him why he is there and such, Henry says go ahead and kill her because if Jack opens some door or touches some button they will all die so it wont matter.
He does and Henry bolts out of there as fast as he can as thousands of gallons of water comes rushing thru the area they are in. Jack and Juliet recover by going into some doorway and he asks if he is in a aquarium, she says somewhat that they are indeed underwater and this is where the dolphins and sharks are tested.
Now to Sawyer....he is in an outside cell that looks like it has magnetic forces inside it. Sawyer attempts all kinds of things to get out, a teenage boy is held across from Sawyer as well and tells him not to do that, Sawyer doesnt listen and gets bounced around the cell by I asssume the magnetic force. The teenage boy, Sawyer dubs "Chachi" figures out how to get out of his cell and breaks Sawyer out and they
escape, while you hear over the loudspeaker a siren that the escapees have well escaped. They are re-captured, the boy appears to have been beaten up a bit and is forced to apologize to Sawyer for getting him involved in his escape. Sawyer continues to try and figure out this strange cell he is in and tricks it and suddenly water comes out of the rain gutter and some large cracker comes out from another
area and Sawyer tests it out, finds it edible and Kate who has just been taken to a outside cell across from Sawyer is thrown a piece of the cracker to eat for herself. One guy from the Others notices Sawyer had figured out how to get food and water and says the Bears who used to be in there did it alot quicker, Sawyer asked "how many bears were in here", but didnt get an answer.
The backstory for the show is about Jack so we see him at a lawyer's office with his wife and they are preparing for the divorce, she asks him where is his lawyer and he says he fired him, it seems Jack wants to reconcile but she does not. Her cell phone rings and she talks to someone and laughs, enjoying her conversation. Jack asks who is this guy she is talking to, he will give her everything from the car, boat, money, etc. if she will tell who this man is that she is now with. She doesnt answer. Next you see Jack in his doctor's office researching phone numbers to find out who the man is. His father walks in and he tells him, "Jack just let it go". He is telling him their marriage is over, just move on and let it go. Jack's father's cell phone rings and Jack begins to think its his wife on the other end, so he follows his father around and what looks like a hotel happens to be a AAA meeting. Jack yells at his father and accuses him of sleeping with his wife, the lady at the AAA meeting
says that is father has been sober for 50 days, you should be proud of him, relax, calm down, etc. Jack's father tells him, "just let it go" again, Jack has had it and attacks his father slamming him against the wall and is beating him up. Now we
see Jack in jail and his bail is paid, its his wife and she says she called a cab for him, he follows her to her car and sees a man standing next to the car and asks if that is the guy who she is now with, she says what does it matter and that your father called me rip roaring drunk and crying and that you had been taken to jail.
She tells him if there is one positive thing you can make out all of this is that you can go fix your father since you like to "fix things".
Back to Juliet and Jack in the holding chamber, she says she has a book, that is like a book on your life, she tells him she knows all about him from his schooling, to his profession, to his family, his ex-wife, etc. She even has Jack's father autopsy report, he asks how can she get things like this and she says they can get anything they want, he asks Juliet if his ex-wife is happy and she says that she is very happy now. Juliet had been working on trying to get Jack to communicate with her and had finally succeeded.
The show ends as she leaves the chamber and Henry Gale is standing there and said, you did a good job, Juliet you got to him. She replies and doesnt seem to be quite fond of Henry, but she tells him, "thanks BEN". And the show fades to black. So the guy's real name is Ben. No previews for next week but I'm sure we'll see those on Wednesday.
