Speaker 1: Welcome to the Parenting Roundabout podcast. I'm Terry Morrow and
Speaker 1: I'm Catherine Jileco. As parents and parenting writers, we can't
Speaker 1: help but see everything through a parenting lens. But as
Speaker 1: our kids have become adults, we find ourselves more interested
Speaker 1: in getting caught up on movies and streaming. Then I'm
Speaker 1: going over the same parenting topics over and over.
Speaker 2: So since we're pretty sure we can find parenting wisdom anywhere,
Speaker 2: we're going to talk about what we're watching, what we
Speaker 2: thought about it, and maybe what we can learn from it,
Speaker 2: if only what not to do. Watch and listen along,
Speaker 2: and let's all make like we're doing something important for
Speaker 2: our families.
Speaker 1: Each Tuesday, we bring you a watch or rewatch of
Speaker 1: an older entertainment property, And for this week of February tenth,
Speaker 1: we're continuing with Lost season two, episode eight, Collision, which
Speaker 1: turned out to be kind of a more dramatic title
Speaker 1: than the episode actually delivered on right particularly hard. Everybody
Speaker 1: understood that that it was a shooting, Shannon was an accident,
Speaker 1: and once Sayid calmed down, everybody understood, and so they
Speaker 1: just sort of was more like an infiltration. Small groups
Speaker 1: of the tail section met with small groups of the
Speaker 1: mid section folks, and.
Speaker 2: Then we got the the romance novel ending of running
Speaker 2: to each other across the sand, both Rose and Bernard
Speaker 2: and Jin and Son.
Speaker 1: Yes, I'm gonna call that that ending part the ah Montage.
Speaker 1: First we had Awe Sawyer and Kate, and then Ah
Speaker 1: Vincent and Michael carrying Shannon's dead body, and Ana Lucia.
Speaker 1: It was super fortunate that Jack watch the previous lease
Speaker 1: for this episode all everything that has happened. He remembers
Speaker 1: her name efficiently that when it is said, he kind
Speaker 1: of prooks up and says, well, she looks like Kate
Speaker 1: and swear or hooking up. Maybe I have a chance, girl,
Speaker 1: show me where is she? Where is she? It's that okay, just.
Speaker 2: That whole like them staring at each other in the jungle. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Wow, what you guys spent like five minutes together in
Speaker 1: a bar. It's not like you used to be married, right,
Speaker 1: But I will allow it just to move things along, right,
Speaker 1: Let's go, let's go, let's go, Come on, come on,
Speaker 1: trusting and you were suspicious about the lengthiness of the pause.
Speaker 1: After Aunt Lucia was asked if she had any kids, yes,
Speaker 1: being meaningful. It happened again here, you know, she did
Speaker 1: somebody asked her something in this one also, and there
Speaker 1: was a lot pause, right, And so finally we get
Speaker 1: the reason for it, which is that she was shot
Speaker 1: in a police She was a police officer. She was
Speaker 1: shot and she was pregnant. Yes, And it's like, do
Speaker 1: we know her well enough to really care? At that
Speaker 1: this pointment, it seemed like not a lot of payoff
Speaker 1: for killing a baby, because Okay, I mean, she's already
Speaker 1: a disaster. We can already see that she has a
Speaker 1: lost soul and if nothing else anger management issues, they
Speaker 1: needed that too, right? Did they need that too? Think
Speaker 1: they need that? Maybe it pays off somewhere later, but
Speaker 1: it just seemed like, eh, what else can we do?
Speaker 1: What else can we?
Speaker 2: Oh? I know, right right here we go.
Speaker 1: Certainly she could have been she could have killed the
Speaker 1: guy because he shot her up and presumably she had
Speaker 1: a long recuperation. They could have just played that up.
Speaker 1: Maybe he killed her partner or something like that. I
Speaker 1: don't think we needed to have the baby angle. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I honestly can't remember if it pays off, but I
Speaker 1: sort of presented that right.
Speaker 2: And just because because you know you had him right there. Yeah,
Speaker 2: like wasn't sending him to jail, Like they made it
Speaker 2: clear that all it was going to take was her saying, yeah,
Speaker 2: that's him.
Speaker 1: And well, I guess from her point of view, stuff
Speaker 1: happens and people get off and she wanted to make
Speaker 1: sure that his sentence was carried out swiftly.
Speaker 2: And then I guess she's like, I'm off to Australia. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I suppose some of those things will be filled in
Speaker 1: in the future episodes. I can't honestly remember, but okay,
Speaker 1: at least it was it was the It was a
Speaker 1: flashback about some of the somebody different we'll find out
Speaker 1: about later about who netweek's flashback is about.
Speaker 2: And I think we can tell from the title of
Speaker 2: the episode.
Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting to find out about new people.
Speaker 1: But Kate, what's the deal with Kate?
Speaker 2: Remember Kate?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know about as much of the deal of
Speaker 1: Kate that I want to know. But okay, whatever, there's more,
Speaker 1: there's more for you. It's like you're going to bring
Speaker 1: a new chicken here. I need another storyline, come on us.
Speaker 2: Well, what they did have from Anna and Lucia.
Speaker 1: Two women one what is it they used to do
Speaker 1: the extra hot great people to two actors one part
Speaker 1: or something like that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't remember. But well, if you're having some
Speaker 2: sort of parallels, I mean there's many parallels. But uh,
Speaker 2: Kate has a mommy issue, which we know about. Yes,
Speaker 2: and Ana Lucia obviously does too, because mom is not
Speaker 2: just her mom, she's her boss YEPS, the captain of
Speaker 2: the police department or whatever piece of it that Alicia
Speaker 2: works for.
Speaker 1: So right, yeah, yeah, there's gonna be trouble between them too,
Speaker 1: I think, or else they will be fast friends. I
Speaker 1: can't remember which one, but.
Speaker 2: Kate and Alicia.
Speaker 1: Kate and Alicia. Yeah, but they do sort of have
Speaker 1: the same vibe. Yes, I wonder if Anilucia has an
Speaker 1: airplane somewhere in her.
Speaker 2: Hers is a little toy police car.
Speaker 1: Yes, there you go. It's a little matchbox car. Yes,
Speaker 1: we're a little baby toy of some sort. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Well you started off by saying, how you know it
Speaker 2: was not so much a collision of just a you know,
Speaker 2: a light tap, but you know the scene of Locke
Speaker 2: encountering mister Echo for the first time, just like that,
Speaker 2: you be sir. They both were just like, hmm, I
Speaker 2: wonder how this is gonna go.
Speaker 1: So, so you're there, oddball, huh, okay, all right, nice
Speaker 1: to meet you.
Speaker 2: A lot.
Speaker 1: Looks like the kind of guy who would just stopped
Speaker 1: talking for forty days.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, yeah, yep, I can definitely see that everybody would cheer.
Speaker 1: But okay, yeah, so that's it's going to be interesting
Speaker 1: to see how everybody, uh, everybody infiltrates here. But it
Speaker 1: was not as dramatic a thing as I had expected,
Speaker 1: which is just fine from a parenting point of view. Yes,
Speaker 1: we may have talked about this a little bit last week.
Speaker 1: I can't remember if she was just on this particular note,
Speaker 1: but on a Lucia she shot somebody, she's tied somebody
Speaker 1: else up. There's gonna be trouble. But she's like, I
Speaker 1: know what I'm doing. I know what I'm doing. It's like, oh,
Speaker 1: I have said that, that's a that's a mom thing.
Speaker 1: Things look really bad right now, but I'm on top
Speaker 1: of it. I got in you know, don't question me
Speaker 1: feeling when you know you're going the wrong way, but
Speaker 1: you're committed, right, so you know, what can you do?
Speaker 1: People are believing in you. You gotta sell it and
Speaker 1: when everybody is pretty sure that you are completely in
Speaker 1: over your.
Speaker 3: Head, which was also nope, nope it going back to Kate,
Speaker 3: you know, I mean that's kind of how she was
Speaker 3: when she was like, oh, I can get sway to
Speaker 3: swallow this pill, Like.
Speaker 2: Like, how did she know that she could do that?
Speaker 2: You know?
Speaker 1: And also therefore she gives all the guys their pills.
Speaker 2: They made it seem like, clearly you can't. He can't
Speaker 2: just instantly recover from one dose of antibiotics, Like he's
Speaker 2: got to be on that stuff for ten days, right, Like, yeah,
Speaker 2: is she gonna do this? Well?
Speaker 1: I think that's like Jack is like, well, I gotta
Speaker 1: get out. Here is any other ladies around?
Speaker 2: Hey?
Speaker 1: I remember you.
Speaker 2: I feel like Sawyer is definitely gonna be like, well,
Speaker 2: where's Kate. I can't take my medicine without her?
Speaker 1: I need my snuggles exactly. Mom. Oh yeah, do you
Speaker 1: have any secrets for getting kids to swallow pills? I
Speaker 1: was thinking about that while I was watching that. How
Speaker 1: does one do that? I mean, the dog, I've pretty
Speaker 1: got pretty much got the dog to take her pill.
Speaker 1: I have to act like it's the most delicious thing
Speaker 1: in the world. Right, and like maybe I'm gonna eat
Speaker 1: it for her, right, And then she suddenly wants it
Speaker 1: like crazy. Putting it in peanut butter was not sufficient.
Speaker 1: She would look off the peanut butter and spit out
Speaker 1: the pill. Oh see that's so yum, wonderful human food.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna eat this.
Speaker 2: Oops.
Speaker 1: I dropped it on the floor. All over that that happened.
Speaker 2: No, I think my kids were pretty okay about it.
Speaker 2: I do remember when my daughter had her appendix out
Speaker 2: and she was in the hospital for like two weeks
Speaker 2: and she had to you know, they were always poking
Speaker 2: her for medicines or ivy or whatever, blood tests, and
Speaker 2: at the second hospital, at the one, the local one,
Speaker 2: every time they poked her with a needle, they would
Speaker 2: give her either a beanie baby or a Webkin's toy.
Speaker 2: And so by the time, yeah, the collection was significant.
Speaker 1: And at some point the kid starts looking for the
Speaker 1: needle and going shot shot shut.
Speaker 2: Yeah, don't give me that, give me that. But I
Speaker 2: don't think they have I don't think they had beanie
Speaker 2: babies in the hatch. Do they know? If you call
Speaker 2: that thing?
Speaker 1: Though they seem to have quite a lot of they
Speaker 1: may just open another door and find oh, babies over here.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: It was so weird to me when they when they
Speaker 1: were bringing Sawyer in and they brought him down to
Speaker 1: the hatch, I'm like, oh, right, they have a place
Speaker 1: to go now, right, they just bring him to the beach.
Speaker 1: I thought everybody was gonna see him.
Speaker 2: But no, they have an indoors now.
Speaker 1: Oh that's gonna freak him out.
Speaker 2: Where What exactly happened while I was gone?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, indeed, yep. There was a scene where Annac
Speaker 1: was coming back to work and they called her to
Speaker 1: go to a certain room, and you know, of course
Speaker 1: that there's going to be a party without even having
Speaker 1: the mother and character having to tell you they made you,
Speaker 1: they got you a cake. Try to act surprised. I
Speaker 1: feel like I've done that with my kids. It's like
Speaker 1: it's just a lot to keep something from them or
Speaker 1: and also because you can't necessarily expect them to have
Speaker 1: the reaction that you want them to have. Yeah, So
Speaker 1: it's like, if it's a surprise party, you have to
Speaker 1: look surprised. If it's you know, friends over, you have
Speaker 1: to look happy. If it's if it's relatives, you have
Speaker 1: to go hug everybody. Let's let's just run this down,
Speaker 1: shall we? Right here, there's a lot of surprises here
Speaker 1: in our house. They're gonna expect you to be surprised.
Speaker 1: But I would like to just run down the let's
Speaker 1: run through this. Let's practice. Shall we practice?
Speaker 2: Yes, it's hard, you don't. You can't really practice for
Speaker 2: the whole like tail Section survivors, Yes, there.
Speaker 1: Was no If they'd known, they could have made a cake.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Is there like some dorma cake mix? Is there some
Speaker 1: cake cans of in the hatch?
Speaker 2: You know that frosting keeps forever and.
Speaker 1: Ever dharma frosting from the fifties, as long as the
Speaker 1: seal hasn't been broken. You're good.
Speaker 2: You are good for it.
Speaker 1: I bet Rose could figure out how to make a cake.
Speaker 2: She's resourceful, that one is. She is.
Speaker 1: Her faith in Bernard still being alive was proven to
Speaker 1: not be ridiculous. Yeah, good day for her.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Are they gonna go back to her and be like, okay, now,
Speaker 2: can you tell us some more about what is going
Speaker 2: on here?
Speaker 1: And yeah? Yeah, somehow?
Speaker 2: I don't think so.
Speaker 1: That was long awaited. I was just basically waiting through
Speaker 1: this whole episode for I kept thinking isn't Bernard at
Speaker 1: some point just gonna say, you know what, I'm leaving.
Speaker 1: I want to go find my wife.
Speaker 2: Right at this point, I'm we're like twenty minutes away.
Speaker 2: I've had enough.
Speaker 1: It's like, how long is he gonna sit there and
Speaker 1: watch her to decide what she's gonna do and not
Speaker 1: just like seep into the bush like Homer Simpson disappearing
Speaker 1: into his head exactly, because yeah, come on, he's been
Speaker 1: waiting quite some time for this.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: When they were having the scene on the beach where
Speaker 1: everybody was, you knew they wanted to pace out the
Speaker 1: reunions so each one could get its aw. But this
Speaker 1: required Son to be like washing some laundry. Why, like
Speaker 1: three or four reunions are going on, and the large
Speaker 1: number of people had joined the company, and she's still
Speaker 1: that's stained, still here.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to ask Rose how to get this.
Speaker 1: Out so that she can she can have just turned
Speaker 1: just as Jin is running to her right.
Speaker 3: Oh my god.
Speaker 1: Ah, you know, I would think that she would be
Speaker 1: hyper alert to anybody coming out of the jump because
Speaker 1: at this point she saw Michael.
Speaker 2: She saw Michael exactly, So she's.
Speaker 1: Gonna be standing there at the end of that jungle,
Speaker 1: going jin where are you? But no, you know, she
Speaker 1: wanted to make sure that her clothing were clean. Was
Speaker 1: c I think what's clean? When he got let me
Speaker 1: just finish up this laundry before my husband comes back.
Speaker 2: I leave. She found her ring.
Speaker 1: Yes, oh boy, yeah, that would have been a problem.
Speaker 1: It was kind of nice, that kind of sweet when
Speaker 1: Vincent came out to greet Michael. But you also know
Speaker 1: that Vincent is going to be going.
Speaker 2: So where's what?
Speaker 1: Where's what? Running back and forth jungle and back and
Speaker 1: forth and back and forth until Michael is just weeping,
Speaker 1: and you know.
Speaker 2: Yes, because everyone else got these reunions, but Michael did not.
Speaker 1: Michael didn't. Michael got his son's dog basically, which is
Speaker 1: better than nothing.
Speaker 3: I mean.
Speaker 1: Sure, but not the reunion he would like it was.
Speaker 1: It was a nice, uh little shuffling of chest pieces
Speaker 1: to get everybody together now so that we move forward
Speaker 1: into more absolutely nuts storylines.
Speaker 2: Can't wait because we still have others out there.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes we do. And I don't think Libby has
Speaker 1: yet revealed what her profession is, right because the line
Speaker 1: is warm yeah left, Yes, she's got to set up
Speaker 1: her little lucy booth on the beach, you know, psychiatric help.
Speaker 1: One coconut and come on, and she's gonna have to
Speaker 1: raise her raids a whole fish or something, that's right. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: oh man, well she's not gonna be hurting for work,
Speaker 1: busy lady. So next week, as previously spoiled a little bit,
Speaker 1: I just I just can't with this. Next Tuesday we
Speaker 1: will continue with season two at the so nine have
Speaker 1: lost what Kate did? I don't care.
Speaker 2: And also I don't really believe you that you're going
Speaker 2: to spill it all at this point.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like these people like contractually obligated to get
Speaker 1: X number of episodes about themselves in the course of
Speaker 1: the season. We just have two of them about people
Speaker 1: we haven't met yet. Could we have a mister Echo
