Lost executive producers Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof promised to call me as soon as they came up with a nickname for the closing — and assuredly jaw-dropping — scene of this season's finale, which is now slated for May 13.
The thing is, the boys aren't nicknaming that moment this year.
You are.
We have learned exclusively that in this week's official Lost podcast, posting to ABC.com on Thursday, Team Darlton will formally invite viewers to suggest a nickname for the season finale's final moment.
In seasons past, that head-scratcher has been dubbed "Bagel" (Walt is abducted by the Others!), "Challah" (Penny's research team locates the island!), "The Rattlesnake in the Mailbox" (Jack is flashing forward!) and "Frozen Donkey Wheel" (which, quite literally, Ben rotated to move the island).
The ink is barely dry on the finale script and it's at least a week from being filmed, so you'll just have to go with your gut when conjuring up a nickname. There is talk, however, that the season-ender will (SPOILER ALERT) culminate with "the incident" referred to by Marvin Candle in the first orientation video.
Submissions can be directed to ABC.com/asklost, with the producers' pick being announced on ABC's March 26 podcast.
