Super-Fun Happy Quiz of the Week


Last night's finale of Lost was stunning. I wasn't expecting too much, but it definitely blew "24" (and any other finale this year) out of the water. So many questions were answered, and so many new questions were raised. Here now is the super-fun happy quiz of the week:

Name That "LOST" Twist!

There were some pretty outrageous twists last night--some so incredibly unlikely that they couldn't possibly be picked out of a police line-up. So now, it's your job to pick them out of a police line-up! Six are true and four are false. Go for it.
  1. The "Monster," previously thought to be black smoke, is actually a hallucinigenic drug released by pipes.
  2. People from the outside world found the location of Mystery Island.
  3. A giant bird called out Hurley's name.
  4. Sayid, Jin, and Sun are presumed dead.
  5. The Hatch is an electromagnet that caused the crash of the airplane.
  6. Locke, Eko, and Desmond are presumed dead.
  7. There is a giant, four-toed foot along the coast of Mystery Island.
  8. The Polar Bears from season one are bred for combat.
  9. Sayid's CIA contact was on the island somehow.
  10. Sawyer was actually one of the "Others" on a deep-cover mission.
You have your answers written down on your Jeopardy tablet? Good. Let's dissect this bitch.

  1. The "Monster," previously thought to be black smoke, is actually a hallucinigenic drug released by pipes.

    • False. The monster, despite being the prominent "mystery" of the very first episode, has only appeared twice since then. Last night was not one of them.

  2. People from the outside world found the location of Mystery Island.

    • True. In the first ever "modern-day" scene in the real world, scientists noticed the electromagnet's effects and called...Desmond's ex-girlfriend?

  3. A giant bird called out Hurley's name.

    • True. Yes'm, it's true. A giant freaking bird said Hurley's name (it happened last season too). I really have nothing to add to this, and it doesn't make a whole lot of sense...until next season when we find out that the "Others" ARE ACTUALLY PTERODACTYLS!

  4. Sayid, Jin, and Sun are presumed dead.

    • False. Sayid, Jin, and Sun are sitting at the "Others'" fake camp, waiting for the arrival of Jack, Kate, Sawyer, Michael, and Hurley. However, Michael is sailing off the island in a motorboat. Jack, Kate, and Sawyer are hostages. Hurley is probably in the jungle eating ranch dressing. In other words, they ain't coming any time soon.

  5. The Hatch is an electromagnet that caused the crash of the airplane.

    • True. If the Hatch operator failed to enter the numbers in the computer, the electromagnet fired. It happened again last night, and the Hatch appeared to explode.

  6. Locke, Eko, and Desmond are presumed dead.

    • True. They were in the Hatch (see number 5).

  7. There is a giant, four-toed foot along the coast of Mystery Island.

    • True. What the hell? Unless the "Others" are paying tribute to The Simpsons, something weird is afoot (hehe, the foot is afoot).

  8. The Polar Bears from season one are bred for combat.

    • False. The polar bears are yet to be explained.

  9. Sayid's CIA contact was on the island somehow.

    • True. Inman was Desmond's predecessor in the hatch. What?

  10. Sawyer was actually one of the "Others" on a deep-cover mission.

    • False. Sawyer's too cool for that. He got kidnapped by the "Others," along with Jack and Kate.

Sound weird enough for you? Me too.
