Boone couldn't be gay. He was in love with Shannon, was he not? The "Hearts and Minds" eppy was all about how much he cared about Shannon.... OMG, if Ben was gay, I would lose it! It would be great. Hopefully him and Jack will become a couple because they're the best OTP ever!!! I'm all for the Sexy Back (Ben/Jack) ship! I would very much like Ben to not be gay. I know that people have shipped him with Tom. But I'd rather see him as a romantic guy with Juliet.

I still believe it's Mr. Friendly who's gay.
As for the episode, I think it was alright. I did like seeing Charlie finally admitting that he kidnapped Sun. I think this is part of his redemption on the island. I also liked seeing that Ben and Juliet are really in cahoots together and it seems that she is just putting this all on for show.
The episode overall was average. Nothing too crazy or great, but it was nice to see Charlie admit he did something wrong and to see Hurley stand up against Sawyer again. It seems to me that Hurley is starting to become more of a leader to some of the Losties. He doesn't know it but I can see it coming to light.

It seems to me that Hurley is starting to become more of a leader to some of the Losties. He doesn't know it but I can see it coming to light. I guess, Charlie will be the next one to go. Once you reach redemption, out you go, and Charlie is coming into terms with his flaws. So you think that Juliet was just putting it all for show? Maybe she was acting like she cared with Ben, but she really wanted him out of her life. In the next episode, she will be kicked out of the group. She and Kate will be alone in the jungle. Super-Kate, as some of us call her, is going to beat the crap out of Juliet. At least, that's what the promos show. I personally did not like this show. Here are some of my thoughts that may or may not make my blog: Ok, get the stones ready. And now, get set, aim, and fire away at me: I would love to give this episode a 0 if that were an option. This was a big waste of my time. It didn't contribute to the flow of the storyline at all. And if those spiders are around, how come no one else was bitten by them? The castaways walk around without much protection. Do I now care about Nikki and Paulo? As a matter of fact, I cared for them more before. Do I feel sorry for them? No. Did they ever try to be part of the group? No. I, who always says that LOST is good for its entertainment value if nothing else, found this episode as entertaining as the toilet that Paulo flushed.

I know who Nikki and Paulo are now- they're Forrest Gump. Forrest Gump was a not too bright person who stumbled onto all of the big historical events of the last few decades, as Nikki and Paulo stumbled through many of the important events on the island[and did nothing to stop them at that] My theory is this whole thing was one giant in joke and parody- either Nikki and Paulo's story was a parody of cheesy syndicated shows like Expose, or they were parodying their own use of secondary characters that end up dead like Boone and Shannon and Artz and Ethan, or they were parodying themselves for doing nothing with them[probably thinking that admitting it themselves would get them off the hook with the fans], or they wanted to play a game of "look what past event we can call back next!", or just do a clip show mixing new footage with old stuff. For the record, Lindelof tried to defend himself in a brief tvguide interview at community.tvguide.com/thread.jspa?threadID=800011706

Yeah...buried alive...that sucks...
The minute footage of Ben made the episode so much better though!
But seriously, did the writers say someone was going to be Gay? I hope it isn't Ben! I wanted him to still be in love with Juliet!!!!!
Maybe he went gay because of Juliet LOL
But seriously, did the writers say that someone was gonna be gay?

This episode was just a buncha' filler. Blah.
Wasting our time with "Pablo and Nina" ..even though I don't care fer' Sawyer much the fact he didn't remember thur' names even after they were dead was pretty funny. There was alot of Kill Bill rip off in this one. If anyone has seen the movies, there is a scene like that of the spider paralyzation scene except it was the black mamba in the movie and also there was a buried alive theme.
I don't think that Juliet's comment is a sign of Ben's gayness. xD..but I could be wrong.
What's so bad about Benry turning out to be gay anyhow? I don't mean to stereotype, but Benry is a bit more clean and proper than most guys in LOST..and he sure does hang out with alot of dudes all the time. If everyone thinks Tom is gay then ok, who does he seem to spend so much time with?..Ben. :U I know some of you really dig the whole Juliet/Ben stuff, but I don't see much of an emotional connection between the two. She digs Jack more.
Benry in his dock outfit hehe :]..did you notice that now he has side-burns when he shouldn't have them. xD I guess they didn't realize them when they shot that scene.

That episode was just like this part in the movie "the serpent and the rainbow". With Bill Pullman being buried alive while paralized. But it was a powder that caused the paralyzation, instead of a spider. Although he was buried with a spider. xD;; I love that movie. But as far as Ben being gay goes, I don't think they'll go too far into it if he is gay. It'll be just a subtle plot element I'd guess.

In the moments before Nikki got bit, did anyone else think the noises in the jungle before that almost sounded like the noises from the smoke monster? They were probably made by Artz's spiders, but they sounded a little similar to those whirring mechanical noises "Smokey" makes before attacking. For a brief sec I thought this was a callback to Hurley's theory that the monster got them, but no.

I loved how Ben didn't respond to Juliet's Jack "is cute" comment. It was the best part of that entire episode. She tries getting under his skin, but we see how well that worked. PS-If it had bothered Ben, it would be because she's looking at his man Jack. *winks* Yey for SexyBack!!!

I'm thought the "he's cute" comment was more like - Just watch what I'm going to do with him. Kind of like, what a cute bug, then squash! ;D

The epi was 4/10 for me but scene with Ben and Juliet was really good. I love the tension after she said "he's cute" and I don't think he's gay
