The "N.M.I.C."?

This leaked yesterday and I got to see it before it came down. If you weren't inclined to buy any of this before I think you'll feel ripped off if you spend money to see the clip. Nothing that they answer goes against what you could just make an educated guess on.

I wouldn't buy the blu-ray just for it, but it's not a bad little clip.

It briefly touches on several questions, and wraps one additional character. I'd pretty much take any new Ben material at this point, though, so I'm not going to complain.

Weezer is naming their next album Hurley and the album cover is a head shot of Jorge Garcia. Seriously.

A couple small points:

This is nit-picky stuff, but this epilogue seems to exist to answer a lot of Lost fans' nit-picky questions, it is not necessary in the overall story of Lost.

So were the Dharma guys in Guam being paid by an automated system for these past 20 years? Really? And they just keep doing that same job for 20 years without seeing anyone else from Dharma, just the "teletype?" This answers the question "Why/how do the food drops keep coming after Dharma is wiped out?" but where does the "Dharma Logistics Warehouse" gets its supplies from? I see 3 pallets ready to go and another being packed, so it can't be too long between drops. That warehouse did not look big enough to have 20 years worth of supplies.

Who told Walt that Michael died? The last time I remember seeing Walt was when he visited Hurley at Santa Rosa in Season 5, and he seemed to let Walt believe that Micheal was back on the island (which I guess he really is, just as a "whisper") so sometime between that scene (where Hurley was in Santa Rosa after returning from the island, and Walt left the island and lives with Micheal's mom) and the epilogue (where Walt was in Santa Rosa now, and Hurley is the boss of the "Home Office") someone else made contact with Walt and told him? Or he just guessed?

I do like the little bit about Pierre Chang's aliases.

I was hoping to get a little taste of Hurley on the Island being in charge, maybe re-decorating the inside of Jacob's beach foot.

Who says they were being paid? Most of the DHARMA members seem to be volunteer participants. In fact, the only person who ever mentions any type of pay is Roger who says he wants hazard pay after being shot at by hostiles...that doesn't necessarily mean he was getting paid, though.

As for the rest, they weren't doing regular food drops. Only when the automated system found a window (which seemed very sporadically according to Eloise). These guys probably just lived there for free most of the time and packed pallets periodically.

The food is mostly bomb shelter looking stuff, so i'm sure it keeps.

The Walt thing is a mystery...no idea. It's suggested he's psychic in earlier episodes, so it's possible he sensed it.

my only issue is if the drops go out so infrequently and the supplies are sitting around all the time, why wait till the last minute to pack them up? they're just lazy anymore.
