S4: Cabin Fever

Seeing the title of the episode I remembered that Locke finds the cabin and speaks with Christian and Claire, but I forgot all the other awesomeness that was this episode - the birth of Locke, his mother rejecting him, his foster family, Richard Alpert's involvement coming back every so often to check on him, teenage Locke saying "Don't tell me what I can't do.", and lastly Locke in is wheelchair being told to go on a walkabout by Widmore's associate Abaddon. 

We were treated with a few moments on the island and freighter which were pretty awesome.  I like that Horace was building the cabin and was able to speak to Locke through his dream.  The one mind fuck was that the doctor on the freighter was found dead on the beach on island a full 8 or so hours (I would guess) before his throat was even slit.  Keamy's gun jamming was pretty cool showing that the island is still not done with Michael.

So Christian who claims to speak on Jacob's behalf tells Locke that he has to move the island to save it.  I remember that ending blowing my mind the first time watching the show.  I thought, "How the heck are they going to move an entire island?"  Damn.  I really love this episode on second watch.  Unfortunately being so amped up I looked ahead and the finale is separated into three parts so I'd excited to delve into those.

Awesome scene:  Ben's mini speech to John about destiny being a fickle bitch was the most honest Ben has ever been to Locke.  It was perfectly delivered/acted by Michael Emerson.
