Goofs:

Incorrectly regarded as goofs: At the pharmacy, Jack tries to get a refill on oxycodone (percocet), a schedule II narcotic drug. Refills are not permitted on schedule II drug prescriptions. However, this is not a goof as the pharmacist refuses to fill his prescription.

Quotes:

Richard Alpert: We're going to the radio tower?
Ben Linus: Not we, Richard, me. You're going to take everyone to the temple as planned.
Richard Alpert: Now might not be the best time to go tromping off on your own.
Ben Linus: Oh really, and why not?
Richard Alpert: Because people are asking questions, Ben. About leaving home, about what happened to Locke, about Jacob. Not to mention the rapidly spreading rumour that everyone that went down to the beach is dead.
Ben Linus: They're not all dead.

An Amazing Episode that proves Lost is in the right direction

Although i've heard a lot about how the third season is no good, or doesn't live up to what lost used to be (i disagree i think its been great with probably only one or two weak episodes) This episode will change any naysayers mind.

The writing was top notch. With jaw-dropping twists, action, and emotion, the writers know exactly where they are heading with the show (thanks in part to the recently set end-date. I actually prefer this finale to the second season one and i cannot believe i have to wait until February because this episode leaves you wanting more.

Lost is developing quite a reputation for its finales now and this one will blow you away. The entire cast acted wonderfully with an amazing performance from Matthew Fox as Jack.

10/10 The best couple hours of television i've seen all year.
