Fitting! Continue reading The Sky Scorchers – Episode 4: The Animatrix
The Season 5 finale introduces us to Jacob, the man we’ve heard so much about, but have never seen until today.

As we learn this week, the history between Ben Linus and Charles Widmore is tumultuous and complex. We learn about their past, as well as witness Ben go on a journey to be judged by the Island for forgiveness now that he has returned in a performance so well done it earned Michael Emerson an Emmy.

We also discover there may be more to the other Ajira 316 passengers than we thought. Two great episodes this week as we get closer to the Season 5 finale!
