It’s been three long weeks since we last saw James “Sawyer” Ford, and he made his return in a big way this week. Both on-island and off-island action centered on everyone’s favorite bad boy during “Recon,” the eighth episode in the final season of LOST. Let’s begin with the off-island action.

Many loyal LOST viewers aren’t fans of the new flash-sideways action this season. But tonight’s episode proved that the flash-sideways can be just as exciting and mind-bending as the on-island action:

LOST Recap, Season 6, Episode 7: “Dr. Linus”

What follows is a recap of LOST Season 6, Episode 7: “Dr. Linus.” Lots of spoilers ensue.

Rumor has it that the creators of LOST have purposefully split the last season into three distinct acts, with each act comprising of six episodes. If this rumor is true, tonight’s episode, “Dr. Linus,” would mark the beginning of the second act.

Let’s leap right into dissecting this complex episode:

LOST Recap, Season 6, Episode 4: “The Substitute”

What follows is a recap of LOST Season 6, Episode 4: “The Substitute.” Lots of spoilers ensue.

It is episodes like last night’s — “The Substitute” — that have secured LOST as a cult classic and kept viewers coming back season after season despite the unending stream of questions.

I began the episode hoping that it would pick up where last week’s left off, that we’d see a disheveled Claire staring Jin down the barrel of her gun, but that is nowhere near where we began this episode. By the first commercial break, I didn’t even care that this was clearly going to be a Claire-less episode.

Let’s talk about the amazing portions of John Locke’s off-island life we saw last night:
