LOST Revisited, Season 5, Episode 4: “The Little Prince” (Feb 5)

Back on the Island, Locke gets the idea to head back to the Orchid. Not that he knows what to do there, but it certainly couldn’t hurt. When Locke mentions that he needs the Oceanic 6 to come back to the Island, Sawyer has a perfectly reasonable response – “Says who?” And really, he’s got a point. We’re taking it on faith that this is what has to happen, but there isn’t any logic behind it. But I think Locke is so in tune with the Island now that he knows what needs to be done. The Island talks to Locke the way it never quite did to Benry. When Locke says he needs to get the Six to come back, we have no good reason to doubt him.
