The next installment of Lost: Missing Pieces is ready! I’ve been waiting since MONDAY to post this, but it just showed up on the website today. Check it out here.
I love Lost, and I’m going to try to post an update on these little snippets every week. (I thought they came out on Mondays, but the website lags behind the release to a certain cell phone service…so I’ll post them as soon as they come up on the website).
This week’s webisode deals with Jack and Benry (Ben/Henry) and a game of chess. In pure Lost-style, it’s really about much more than that.
So far, each of these little snippets: The Watch, Hurley and Frogurt, and now The King of the Castle has led up to major life changes in the lives of the characters. Jack’s marriage (and relationship with his father), which both deteriorate; Hurley’s date with Libby that never takes place, because she was in the wrong place at the wrong time (getting the blankets), and now we see Jack and Benry right before another major twist. (I’ll stop there and let you figure it out for yourself.)
As a side-note, I love chess! I haven’t played in a long time, because, like Benry, I don’t have many formidable opponents with which to play. Every time I play with my hubby, I kill him off in about three minutes (and that’s if I choose not to use my secret moves until later in the game). 
It’s not that he’s a bad player…it’s just that chess was an addiction of mine at one time, and although I never played competitively, it’s hard to turn off that competitive edge. Oh, in case you’re wondering, the move Benry does at the end is called “Castling“…interesting meaning, especially in the Lost context!
So, get going! Go check out Lost: Missing Pieces – The King of the Castle!
I don’t want to spoil it for anyone, so that’s all I’m going to say.
