Lost Spoilers: More Flashes Before Your Eyes, Season 3, Episode 8

Lost Spoilers for Flashes Before Your Eyes, Season 3, Episode 8. It feels like the season is just beginning, but we really are in Part II of Season 3. Keeping with the Part II theme, this is a continuation of my Lost spoilers for the Valentine's Day episode of Lost. Part I was the raft of spoilers post, and there are a lot of others that I've posted over the past few months and you can find those spoilers posts following this link and scroll down.

I actually have been looking forward to this episode a lot, since Desmond is one of my favorite Lost characters. Ep. 8 is a Desmond-centric episode, equipped with a Desmond flashback, which the producers have touted as unlike any other. Behind the hype will be revelations of how Desmond got where he is - and of the mysterious Widmore clan. The Desmond is new and improved for Season 3, the ability to see the future. What does he see? The previews repeatedly have warned us that he sees someone's death. Of course, every human dies, so it does not take much talent to predict that. But Desmond knows more. Expect him to be vague.

Ep. 7 last week gave us a hint of Widmores to come, as Juliet's sister Rachel tested herself with one of those ubiquitous Widmore Pharmaceuticals home pregnancy test kits - depicted in the photo (thanks DarkUFO).

Did you notice the references to the Lost Experience ARG last week? Mittelos, recalling Mittelwerk the evil star of the ARG, and of course Rachel, Juliet's sister recalling Rachel Blake the good star of the ARG.

Here is the official Lost press release from ABC, which usually has some spoilers, and sometimes some misdirection:

HURLEY CONVINCES CHARLIE TO HELP HIM FIND OUT WHAT'S UP
WITH DESMOND, WHO HAS BEEN ACTING VERY STRANGELY
EVER SINCE THE HATCH IMPLODED, ON ABC'S "LOST"

This is the headline ... Hurley and Charlie go and confront Desmond.

"Flashes Before Your Eyes" - A suspicious and determined Hurley enlists Charlie to help him wrangle the truth out of Desmond, who has been acting strangely ever since the implosion of the hatch, on "Lost,"

Look for Desmond to remain coy. He feels the horror of what happened from the implosion and failure to press the button.

"Lost" stars Naveen Andrews as Sayid, Henry Ian Cusick as Desmond, Emilie de Ravin as Claire, Michael Emerson as Ben, Matthew Fox as Jack, Jorge Garcia as Hurley, Josh Holloway as Sawyer, Daniel Dae Kim as Jin, Yunjin Kim as Sun, Evangeline Lilly as Kate, Elizabeth Mitchell as Juliet, Dominic Monaghan as Charlie and Terry O'Quinn as Locke.

Guest starring are Sonya Walger as Penny Widmore, Alan Dale as Charles Widmore, Shishir Kurup as Donovan, Fionnula Flanagan as Ms. Hawking, Katie Doyle as receptionist, Jeremy Colvin as delivery man, Michael Titterton as bartender and David Cordell as Jimmy Lennon.

Penny is back.

Season 3, Episode 10 Lost Spoilers - "Tricia Tanaka Is Dead"

Previously we posted the major Lost Spoiler leakage from this episode, namely, finally finally wily jungle dweller Rousseau has returned. Now ABC has released the title, see above. Who is Tricia Tanaka? Dunno ..... wink.

One thing that is known is that this episode has a Hurley flashback. Hurley returns to Mr. Cluck's Chicken Shack and we gain insight into the inception of Hurley weight problem.

The Spoilers From Pre-Broadcast of Lost Season 3, Episode 3, "Further Instructions"

Clues blog on this episode is here: http://lostexposed.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=234, and was updated after the broadcast.

Fascinatingly ABC switch the broadcast date of this episode from second to third episode of the season. Just before the airing ABC delayed it a week - creating an unusual air of mystery about this episode.

If all the hype is to be believed, this episode focus back on the hatchlings, Desmond, Locke and Mr. Eko, FINALLY. What happened to them anyway? I know... They survived! With a few nicks and bruises to show for it. So, even though the hatch door blew clear to the beach, the guys inside are fine, don't worry about it. Whew!

There has been some misdirection out there on whether the flashback will be on Claire's backstory or Locke's backstory. Let's bet on Locke for this one, my sources say .

Here is the "official" word from ABC's Medianet report. The creators have been known for misdirection before, so take this report -- and any spoiler -- for what it is:

"Ian Somerhalder guest stars as Boone" - Boone is back.

"The fates of Locke, Eko and Desmond are revealed after the implosion of the hatch, while Hurley returns to the beach camp to tell the tale of what happened when he, Jack, Kate and Sawyer encountered "The Others."

"Meanwhile, Claire is shocked to find Nikki and Paulo in Jack's tent. ...

The guest stars are:

Kiele Sanchez as Nikki
Rodrigo Santoro as Paulo -- I heard Rodrigo will become a regular cast member.
Ian Somerhalder as Boone
Justin Chatwin as Eddie
Chris Mulkey as Mike
Virginia Morris as Jan
Joel Himelhoch as sheriff
Dion Donahue as Kim
