The third episode entitled "Further Instructions" focuses on John Locke. There is supposed to be a "trippy airport set dream sequence" according to TV Guide. Hurley is the flight attendant, Desmond is the pilot, and Claire and Charlie are married. But it's all a dream. Or is it? (Cue organ music here.) In this episode, it's also predicted that a dead character will return. Boone (Ian Somerhalder) must be at his sister's side... or something. I'm sure death hasn't hurt his good looks any. Wait, this isn't a flashback or part of the dream. Supposedly, Boone hooks up with John Locke on a "kung fu"-like journey to expose an island mystery. Locke is also supposed to revert to his previous mysterious and knowing ways, Grasshopper. Good. I like that character better. I've always predicted that Locke is the Key to the island and he could very well be if he goes back to that persona.
The episode also reveals the fate of Eko, Desmond, and Locke after the hatch's implosion. (See! I said the hatch would implode after experiencing a naked Desmond!) Oh, no... it's the new characters Nikki and Paulo who have sex in Jack's bed! Already? Some introduction to the characters, eh?
Okay, there are the spoilers for the first three episodes. Once those are digested, I'll write about more down the road. Remember, some are spoilers, some may be foilers. But this Wednesday we'll all be watching the season premiere!

If my memory of time zones isn't faulty, in Hawaii where it's filmed, they'll see it six hours after us. ;-)

Very much looking forward to Lost's return -- and The Nine looks intriguing as well.
