"Adrift", penned by Leonard Dick and Steven Maeda, is an episode a lot of fans dislike and for understandable reasons: there's a pretty perfunctory and average 'fill-in-the-blanks' flashback for Michael, a lot of Michael and Sawyer floating on the water, and a hatch storyline that doesn't further the story at all, merely giving us Locke and Kate's perspective of the events leading up to Jack saying "you" to Desmond at the end of "Man of Science, Man of Faith".
But I've always had a soft spot for the episode. It's never really boring, although it fails to bring anything new to the table with regard to Michael's character, and we get to see a lot more of the hatch than we did in the last episode, and I really do love that hatch (it's brilliantly designed whether you like its impact on the show's story lines or not). The direction by Stephen Williams (his second episode as director after "All the Best Cowboys Have Daddy Issues") is very good, and the performances by everyone involved in the episode are quite good.
But of course what really makes the episode is the classic ending, which led to an endless frenzy of speculation amongst "Lost" fans on the internet and elsewhere, with Jin running out from the jungle to meet Sawyer and Michael and screaming UDDERS UDDERS UDDERS, cut to some ominous looking folk, THUD, LOST. Brilliant.
All in all a pretty solid episode which I feel is unfairly maligned by some.
8/10
