All I have to say to this is that I was left with the SAME QUESTIONS at the end of this three-hour extravaganza: What's in the hatch?  What's the monster?  Who are the "Others"?   What do the numbers MEAN?

None of these questions got answered.  Well, okay, here are the "answers": Under the hatch is a broken ladder leading waaaaay down to...we don't know what.  The monster comes up from underground, employs black smoke in some way, and makes a funny ratcheting sound when pulling people.  The "Others" have a boat and are kinda redneck-y, and take Walt away.  It's Walt they were after, not Claire's baby Aaron (yeah, not Turniphead anymore!).  And Hurley saw the numbers on the hatch and freaked out, saying the numbers were bad and they shouldn't open the hatch.  Locke didn't listen, and it went kaboom anyway.

Best lines of the show were to Hurley, both about Arzt the science teacher blowing hisself up (btw, TOTALLY saw that coming): "Duude.  Arzt just exploded...in front of us."  And to Jack: "Jack...you've got some...Arzt...on you..."  Totally cracked up at those.  Stupid JJ Abrams.  Stupid cliffhanger.  Could we at least have gotten ONE complete answer?  No?  Grrrrrrrrrrrrr....

One very long summer coming up...*sigh*
