WOW!
I know I am biased because of my love for his Baldness, but damn, what a great episode. Whenever you have a Locke episode, all sorts of stuff happens.
I think Locke is the vehicle in which the writers tell the story of the island and evidently, it is a whopper of a tale. When you go down the road of Jack, Kate or Sawyer, you get romance and the development of their characters, but Locke speaks for the island and that is always interesting.
All the other Losties simply live ON the island, Locke has always had a special relationship with the land and has always been drawn closer to some semblance of Nirvana, but I think more correctly for this show, he has achieved enlightenment - awakened to the truth. interestingly enough the word for being awakened to the truth is Dharma and how that relates to the Dharma Initiative remains unclear.
And that is probably on purpose. Damn it!
