LOST Spoilers from the Season Finale (UPDATED)

The ABC Upfront presentation ended with some footage from the upcoming part one season finale of LOST. ABC president Steve McPherson gave the audience a heads up and told those who didn’t want to be spoiled to leave. A few did, but many, like me, remained glued to their seats.

UPDATE: Here’s the clip….

SPOILER ALERT

I’m going to be a heel and just share with you Jen’s recap of the scenes courtesy of E!. She’s such a fan and she’s already done the heavy lifting, so please share the love over at the WWK site for what you are about to read.

Remember…SPOILER ALERT!

Two pilots are at the helm of a transport plane, maybe a C-17. One chastises the other for clinging to his lucky charm; the one holding the rabbit’s foot says he has to be extra vigilant considering the cargo they are carrying. These two are piloting a Coast Guard transport that’s bringing the Oceanic Six back to the mainland. Michelle Forbes is an Oceanic Airlines rep, strapped into the jump seat immediately behind the pilots. The pilots tell Forbes they’re approaching the Tarmac.

She goes back into the cargo hold where Jack, Hurley, Sayid, Sun and Kate are strapped in to passenger seats. Kate is holding Aaron. Michelle Forbes tells the Six the press wants to talk to them, but she can get them out of it. Jack speaks for the group and says that’s fine, they’re prepared to answer any questions. Michelle Forbes leaves, tottering back to the cockpit in her stilettos.

Jack says they all know the story, but if they get any questions they can’t answer, the press will just assume they’re in shock. Sun: “Jack, we are in shock.” Sun and Sayid do look like they’re in shock, whereas Kate just looks generally devastated. Aaron is wearing an insanely adorable little overall jumper. The plane lands, and the gangplank is lowered.

The Six exit the back of the transport. Mama Reyes, Papa and Mama Paik and Mama Shephard are all waiting. All three clans are overjoyed to see each other. Sayid and Kate have no families greeting them. Hugo jumps back after hugging his mom hello and introduces Sayid, who gets the full family hug treatment.

Kate, who looks especially freckly for some reason, holds on tight to baby Aaron and looks around, all alone. I know that Sam Austen is probably supposed to be in Iraq or something (the background soldiers in “Something Nice Back Home”), and I know her mom is perpetually dying, but she’s all alone, and it shows.

Smash cut: Lost

Thanks Jen (and KDS).

I just have to add that I was fighting back the tears BIG TIME when the O6 walked off the plane and greeted their families. I don’t often cry at sad stuff but give me a happy reunion and I’m blubbering all over the place. But what really got me was Kate standing around, holding baby Aaron, with no one to greet her. My heart broke in a million, trillion different pieces. The teams were streaming by this point as I was holding my head back trying to not (as Oprah would call it) do the ugly cry. I’m soooo excited for LOST this week. I can’t wait!!
