Febuwhump 2024 Masterlist

All through January I had been going back and watching a lot of the shows that I was obsessed with when I was younger. Power Rangers was something pretty high on that list, had a bit of a record of where my favourite characters had some whump so when I went through the Febuwhump prompts I thought it was be fun to try and do all of them with Power Rangers whump, including as many different series as I could.

Lost Rewatch: 1x16 Outlaws

An episode where not much happens. Also, a lot happens

What happens to Sawyer as a kid is... horrific. I mean, no wonder he’s fucked up

So I’ve got the transcripts of what the whispers are saying on a tab now. There are some very strange ones, given that they’re supposedly invisible ghosts, for example: "Did he see us?", "What if he shoots us or something?", "Hide against the bushes"

Why can Sawyer hear not-Sawyer’s voice? He didn’t die on the island

You know, I’d forgotten how funny this episode is

Knowing that this guy Hibbs wants Sawyer to kill not-Sawyer makes certain lines stand out. For example, Hibbs tells Sawyer ‘we both know you ain't the killing type’ when Sawyer has him against the wall. I love all the subtle manipulation in Sawyer’s episodes

Why does Jack seem mad at Kate for making out with Sawyer? It wasn’t her idea, and they were trying so save someone’s life

You know, I’ve changed my mind. Kate’s only annoying around Jack. She’s basically fine around Sawyer, sometimes even compelling. At least in the early seasons

I’d forgotten this little side plot about Charlie. I had just thought there were no repercussions to him shooting Ethan. Seems I was wrong, which is great

However, Hurley says he shot Ethan 4 times, when in fact it was six times

The ‘I Never’ scene is really great. No stupid dialogue, no forced love triangle, just a chance for these very closed off characters to open up a bit. And props to the actors, too - they kill it here!

Christian shows up everywhere, doesn’t he?

Going forward, we should note that at no point does Christian tell Sawyer his name

Well that Hippocratic Oath really has flown out of the window, hasn’t it?

After everything she’s learned about Sawyer, why is it holding up a piglet and yelling the thing that makes her change her mind about helping him?

Who knew that a scene where a character stares at a pig for a few minutes could carry such emotion?

The raft was built very fast, wasn’t it?

I get that we need Jack to say ‘That’s why the Sox will never win the series’ so Sawyer can twig that he’s Christian’s son, but within the context of the conversation, I have no idea what he’s talking about

Overall Review:

It is incredibly refreshing to have a really great character piece in this show again. This is what I’m here for, and this episode does not disappoint. Sawyer’s arc really is something, isn’t it?

Overall Rating: 8.6/10

Favourite episode so far!
