OT - The Lost

[Mindi]

Okay a little synopsis of the first episode. It starts out after the crash although later you do get a small flashback of what it was like right before the crash. We meet Jack disoriented in the woods/jungle as he is waking up from the crash. He hears screaming and wanders back to the crash site. He goes around helping some of the passengers including a pregnant woman, a woman who isn't breathing and a guy traped under wreckage that has part of his leg cut off by the wreckage. We learn he is a doctor.

He recruits a passenger named Kate to help him sew up some lacerations he has on his back. They get to talking about finding the front part of the plane. If they can find it maybe they can find the traceiver. She explains how she saw smoke coming from another part of the jungle. During this time the other passengers are doing their best to start a fire, make themselves comfortable, find food, etc. Kate wants to go with Jack to find that front part of the plane tomorrow and just as Jack is starting to argue with her we hear loud noises from the jungle. The trees are shaking the ground is rumbling but eventually whatever it is goes away. All the passengers are visibly shaken by this as they don't have any idea what is on the island with them or what could make all that noise.

The next day Jack and Kate get ready to head out. Another passenger named Charlie invites himself to go with them. Kate feels she has seen him somewhere and we learn that he is a member of a popular band. The sky is darkening suddenly and they are having a rainstorm that comes out of nowhere. Back at the crash site more noises are heard.

The trio find the wreckage and make their way up into the nose of the plane. They discover that one of the pilots are alive. Jack gives him some water and tells him that at least 48 passengers survived and it's been 16 hours since the crash. The pilot tells them that the radio stopped working about 6 hours into the flight and couldn't be seen by anyone. They decided to turn around and land in fiji and by the time they hit the turbulence and went down that they were thousands of miles off course. The rescuers will be looking in the wrong place.

They get the trasceiver and try to get it to work. While up there Charlie disappears and Kate finds him in the bathroom. They hear the noises again and notice shadows outside the plane. They try to look through the windows to catch a glimpse of what is out there. The pilot sticks his head out of the wreckage to take a look and is grabbed and lifted up. We see his legs dangling and struggling and eventually disappears as the fuselage is knocked to the ground (it was sticking up into the air at an angle).

The trio start running back to the beach where they originally crashed and Charlie falls as his leg gets stuck. Jack goes back to help him as Kate is left all alone. A few moments pass and Charlie runs up and Jack is not with him. Kate insists on going back to find him. They stumble upon the pilots wings in a swampy area. Jack is near them and they all look up and see the body of the pilot, blodied and broken sitting in the top of a tree. They wonder what it is that could have done this.
