List of Lost episodes

"Through the Looking Glass" is the twenty-second episode and season finale of the third season – sixty-ninth episode overall – of the American Broadcasting Company television series Lost. It was written by co-creator/executive producer Damon Lindelof and executive producer Carlton Cuse, and directed by executive producer Jack Bender.[1] When the episode first aired on May 23, 2007 in the United States and Canada, it was watched by an average of 14 million American viewers.[2] Like the previous two season finales, it was two hours long with advertisements, which is twice the length of a normal episode. It was split when released on DVD. The season finale was critically acclaimed and the episode has garnered a number of awards and nominations, including three Emmy nominations.[3] Despite heavy security measures, a synopsis of the episode was leaked online before the episode aired. The episode begins on December 22, 2004, ninety-two days after the crash of Oceanic Airlines Flight 815. The battle between the crash survivors and the dangerous and mysterious island inhabitants referred to as "The Others" comes to a head as ten of the Others ambush the survivors' camp and are subsequently killed. Meanwhile, Jack Shephard (played by Matthew Fox) leads most of the survivors to the island's radio tower to communicate with a nearby ship. This is the first Lost episode to feature flashforwards, as opposed to the customary flashbacks.[4] Actor Dominic Monaghan makes his final appearance with main cast credit as Charlie Pace in this episode.

Contents

Plot

The Others plan to ambush the camp and kidnap pregnant women for scientific research.[5] The survivors are informed of the plan by the Other Karl (Blake Bashoff) and conceive a plan to kill the Others with dynamite-rigged tents.[6] Sayid Jarrah (Naveen Andrews), Jin Kwon (Daniel Dae Kim) and Bernard Nadler (Sam Anderson) remain at the beach, tasked with shooting the dynamite-rigged tents while the rest of the survivors journey with Danielle Rousseau (Mira Furlan) to the radio tower to communicate with Naomi Dorrit's (Marsha Thomason) nearby ship. The Others arrive, and while Sayid and Bernard detonate their tents, Jin misses his target, which results in their capture by the Others: Tom (M.C. Gainey), Ryan Pryce (Brian Goodman) and Jason (Ariston Green), and the deaths of seven Others.[7] Charlie dives down into the Looking Glass, one of a series of 1980s scientific research stations, with the hope of disabling the system jamming outgoing transmissions, such as one to Naomi's ship. Charlie is captured by the resident Others Greta (Lana Parrilla) and Bonnie (Tracy Middendorf). Ben Linus (Michael Emerson) learns of Charlie's infiltration and sends Mikhail Bakunin (Andrew Divoff) to the station to kill the three to preserve the signal jamming. Mikhail arrives and kills Greta and Bonnie, only to be shot through the chest with a spear gun by Desmond Hume (Henry Ian Cusick) who emerges from a closet inside the station. Charlie disables the signal jammer, and is contacted by Penny Widmore (Sonya Walger) via video transmission. Penny informs Charlie that she does not know Naomi, and did not send the boat she claims to be from. Mikhail blasts the window of the jamming room with a grenade, killing himself and flooding the communications room.[8] Charlie locks the door to save Desmond from drowning with him, but before he drowns, Charlie tells Desmond that the boat is not Penny’s.[9] John Locke (Terry O'Quinn), one of the survivors, has been shot by Ben.[10] Locke is about to commit suicide, when he is stopped by what appears to be Walt Lloyd (Malcolm David Kelley). Meanwhile, Ben tells Richard Alpert (Nestor Carbonell) to lead the rest of the Others to the "Temple," and then leaves the Others with his adopted daughter, Alex (Tania Raymonde; Rousseau's daughter and Karl's girlfriend),[11] to meet up with the survivors to persuade with Jack not to call Naomi's ship for rescue.[12]

After hearing only two explosions, James "Sawyer" Ford (Josh Holloway) and Juliet Burke (Elizabeth Mitchell) turn back to see if they can help Jin, Sayid and Bernard. Jack informs Kate that he loves her, after she witnesses a kiss between him and Juliet. Ben and Alex intercept Jack's group; Ben informs Jack that Naomi is not who she says she is, and making contact with her boat will be disastrous for everyone on the island. Ben threatens to kill Sayid, Jin, and Bernard, if Jack does not retrieve Naomi's phone. When Jack hears three gunshots, upon his refusal, he attacks Ben. Rousseau meets her sixteen year old daughter Alex, who was kidnapped by the Others shortly after her birth,[13] and they tie Ben up. The shots turn out to be a false alarm, as the three survivors are still alive. Hugo "Hurley" Reyes (Jorge Garcia), who was not allowed to accompany Sawyer and Juliet because of his weight, drives the van he found onto the beach,[14] and the captives gain the upper hand, killing the remaining Others with the help of Sawyer and Juliet.[9] The trek party, now able to get a signal, arrives at the radio tower. Rousseau disables her distress signal, freeing the frequency for Naomi. Naomi is killed by a knife in the back from Locke, who threatens to kill Jack if he calls Naomi’s boat. Locke cannot bring himself to kill Jack, who communicates with Minkowski on Naomi's boat. Minkowski tells the survivors they will be sending rescue.[9] Throughout the episode, flashforwards from years after "Through the Looking Glass"'s island events show that Jack has escaped the island and returned to work as a spinal surgeon.[15] He is depressed, unshaven, heavily drinking and addicted to Oxycodone. After reading about the death of someone he knew, Jack goes to commit suicide by jumping off a bridge. He is distracted by a car wreck and goes to save those in need. Jack visits the memorial service for the person he read about and finds himself to be the only attendee. Jack contacts Kate and tells her about the memorial service. Kate says that she did not know about it, but she would not have attended even if she did. Jack also confesses to using the "golden pass" that they were given by Oceanic Airlines to fly across the Pacific Ocean and back every Friday, hoping that he will crash on the island. Jack explains that they should never have left the island and must return, however Kate disagrees and leaves, not wanting to continue this conversation that they have had before.[16]

Production

The title is an allusion to Lewis Carroll's novel Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There[17] and a reference to the fictitious Dharma Initiative station found in the previous episode. Shooting began on April 13, 2007[18] and ended on May 7, 2007.[19] Filming mostly took place on Oahu, Hawaii, with additional scenes shot in Los Angeles.[20] The hospital scenes were filmed on the same sets used for the ABC show, Grey's Anatomy.[21] Despite not being mentioned in the official press release,[1] 15 year old Malcolm David Kelley returned to reprise his role as 10 year old Walt Lloyd,[22] credited as a "special guest star".[23] While Kelley’s character had left the island in the second season finale,[24] only 26 days prior to the events of "Through the Looking Glass", Kelley had not filmed an episode in over a year. In his single scene, Walt is visibly aged, appearing taller and with a deeper voice.[25] The producers had hoped that Harold Perrineau, who plays Walt's father Michael Dawson, would return in this episode, but he was busy filming the pilot for CBS' Demons.[26] Perrineau will instead return to Lost in season 4.[27] Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse lent their voices for the unseen roles of the flight captain and newscaster, respectively.[28] This episode concluded the story arc about Charlie's death, which began earlier in the season when Desmond prophesied Charlie's death.[29] Throughout the season, Charlie escaped death;[30] however, Desmond told Charlie that he had to die for his girlfriend, Claire Littleton, to get rescued from the island.[6] The storyline of Charlie's death was conceived while producing the latter part of the second season,[31] after the storyline of Charlie's drug addiction finished.[32] The news of his character's death was broken to Monaghan two episodes in advance,[33] to which Monaghan felt "relief" for knowing the future of his job on the show.[34] On the night of Monaghan's second to last day on set, he was presented with a canoe paddle that had been made by the cast and crew.[35] Monaghan hopes to return to Lost as a guest star in flashbacks or dreams.[36] Jack Bender stated that Fox "really commits body and soul into the story he's telling" and Fox questioned whether he had ever been more tired than while shooting the double episode.[37] Like the other Lost season finales, the final cliffhanger scene was given a codename, "The Rattlesnake in the Mailbox," and kept top secret.[38] After Lindelof and Cuse wrote the scene, only Fox, Lilly, Bender and co-executive producer Jean Higgins were given copies of the script. The scene was shot with a green screen in an abandoned Honolulu parking lot with the airport edited in.[39] Despite the security measures, a complete and detailed episode synopsis was uploaded online over a week before the episode aired.[40] Disney investigated the leak.[41] The leak prompted Lindelof and Cuse to enter "radio silence," which was temporarily broken at Comic-Con International 2007.[42] The funeral parlor that Jack visits is called "Hoffs/Drawlar," which is an anagram of "flashforward."[43] The show runners stated that at the end of the first season, they realized that flashbacks would eventually stop being revelatory and knew that they would eventually have to switch to flashforwards.[44] With the announcement that the series would conclude 48 episodes after "Through the Looking Glass,"[45] they decided that the third season finale would be a good place to start playing flashforwards. Post-production wrapped on May 21, 2007, only two days before it aired on television.[17] The score was composed by series musician Michael Giacchino, while popular music was also featured throughout the episode. As Jack drives to the funeral parlor, he listens to "Scentless Apprentice" by Nirvana. The code that Charlie uses to disable the jamming in the Looking Glass is to the tune of "Good Vibrations" by The Beach Boys.[46] The season finales have longer runtimes than the average Lost episode. Without commercials, "Through the Looking Glass" clocks in at 1:27:07.[47] Due to this length, it was split into two parts in some countries.[48] Unlike most episodes, this episode does not feature a "previously on Lost..." recap at the start of the episode; however, it was originally preceded by a clip-show entitled "Lost: The Answers," which recapped the third season.[49] Cuse said that he and Lindelof think the finale is "very cool [and] we're very proud of it."[17] Stephen McPherson, the president of ABC Entertainment, called "Through the Looking Glass" "one of the best episodes" of the series.[50] In ABC commercials, the episode was advertised as "the ultimate showdown" in which "everything will change."[51] Buena Vista Home Entertainment released "Through the Looking Glass" on the season's DVD and Blu-ray sets on December 11, 2007 in Region 1.[52] A featurette called "Lost: On Location" features cast and crew discussing production of select episodes, including "Through the Looking Glass."

Reception

Ratings

In the U.S., the episode brought in the best ratings for Lost in fifteen episodes.[53] The two hour Wednesday broadcast on ABC made Lost the fourth most watched series of the week with an average of 13.86 million American viewers,[54] below the third season average of 14.6 million.[55] The first hour was viewed by 12.67 million, and the audience increased to 15.04 million in the second hour. The episode received a 5.9/15 in the key adults 18–49 demographic.[2] In the United Kingdom, the episode attracted 1.21 million viewers, and was the second most watched program of the week on the non-terrestrial channels, beaten only by Katie & Peter: The Next Chapter.[56] In Australia, Lost was the thirty-seventh most viewed show of the week, bringing in 1.17 million viewers.[57]

Critical response

BuddyTV praised Fox's lead role performance as "Emmy worthy"

The episode received positive reviews from critics.[59] The Los Angeles Times wrote that the episode was "an unusually action-packed and sanguinary spring cleaning that… left a host of… characters… dead,"[60] Access Atlanta said "it was deeply satisfying. The first hour started a bit slow but the second hour had great twists, wonderfully emotional moments, both happy and sad,"[61] and the Associated Press said "the powerful season-ending episode redeemed the series with the shrewdness and intrigue that made it so addictive in the first place."[62] The San Francisco Chronicle wrote that "not only was the pace fast, the teases taut, and the answers plenty, the writers took a compelling gamble… [by telling] viewers that in the future… maybe all… of the people on the Lost island get off. They get their wish. But in Jack, our guide through this series, the writers definitively say, 'Be careful what you wish for.'"[63] Wizard named it the "Best Cliffhanger" of 2007.[64] E! said that "Through the Looking Glass" was possibly "the best episode ever of the entire series."[65] The season finale was summed up as "a mind-blower, for sure, a radical two hours that gave us major fake-outs, an army of dead bodies, the possibility of rescue [and] diverse portraits of heroism" by The Boston Globe, who added that the death of Charlie was "the most touching loss of the series so far."[66] TV Guide described "Through the Looking Glass" as "a dizzying exercise in adventure, sustained tension and time-shifting rug pulling [that was] spectacularly produced, amazingly directed and gloriously acted."[67] The Chicago Tribune called it "a qualified success" with excellent pacing and action, however, the flashforward scenes were thought to be uninteresting and "clumsy."[68] Time ranked the episode as the best of 2007[69] and the "Rattlesnake in the Mailbox" as one of the ten best scenes of 2007 television.[70] IGN gave the double episode a perfect 10/10[71] – the best review of the season – saying it was "nothing short of a masterpiece of storytelling with a brilliantly paced narrative."[72] IGN would conclude that the flashforward was the "Biggest Shock" in 2007 television.[73] BuddyTV praised the unpredictability, saying that "no other show can even attempt to do what Lost does."[58] BuddyTV would later call "Through the Looking Glass" the best finale of 2007[74] and Charlie's death the saddest TV death of 2007.[75] AOL's TV Squad gave the episode a 7/7, noting that "the writers followed through on Desmond's premonitions and successfully delivered the highly anticipated game-changer."[76] Television Without Pity gave the third season finale an "A" – tying it with three other episodes as the highest graded Lost episode.[77] The Sydney Morning Herald wrote that Lost "may have unjumped [the shark] with [the] flashforward."[78] Entertainment Weekly ranked it as one of the top ten episodes of 2007,[79] saying that the cliffhanger "[revealed] new dimensions to [Lost's] creative world."[80] Zap2It questioned "whether to be deeply frustrated (again), really, really confused (a distinct possibility) or just in awe of the incredible mind-(ahem) show runners… have pulled off."[81] The writing for Locke was criticized, one IGN writer said that "it seems irrational that he would go and [stab Naomi] in the back without explaining himself."[82] Lindelof stated "that we might be willing to give [Locke] the benefit of the doubt for any action he took in response to [lying, gutshot, in a pit of Dharma corpses for two days and on the verge of taking his own life], even if considered slightly 'out of character.'"[83] Film and television director and writer Kevin Smith said that "to do [three] seasons and then suddenly throw a massive curveball is just so dramatically satisfying, you just take your hats off to the writers in a big, bad way."[84]

Awards

The episode was nominated in the categories of "Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series," "Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series," and "Outstanding Single-Camera Picture Editing for a Drama Series" in the 59th Primetime Emmy Awards, but it did not win any.[85] The season finale was submitted for Emmy consideration in the category of "Outstanding Drama Series;"[86] however, it was not nominated.[87] "Through the Looking Glass" was the AOL primetime poll winner[88] and editors' pick for "Best Season-Ending Cliffhanger."[89] "Through the Looking Glass" won "Drama Episode of the Year" at the Los Angeles Times Gold Derby TV Awards, in which anyone can vote.[90] The episode was awarded three E! Tater Top Awards. Charlie's death won "Biggest Tearjerker" and the "Rattlesnake" won "Biggest Shocker," while Rose Henderson won "Best Line" for "If you say 'live together, die alone' to me, Jack, I'm going to punch you in your face."[91]
