LOST Revisited: 6-4 “The Substitute” (Feb 17)

Anyway, Locke lied to Helen and told her he was at a conference. But she sees Jack’s business card, and wonders what the odds are that he’d randomly meet a spinal surgeon. She calls it destiny. I direct you to Season Three, where Benry says that he found out he had a tumor on his spine, and then a spinal surgeon fell out of the sky that very day, and that was proof of Jacob’s plan. It’s the same logic that Helen uses, and another example 0f how this season is bringing back situations and dialogue from past episodes. .
