The Little Prince
Synopsis
Before you watch
The Little Prince aired on February 4, 2009, and takes its title from Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s short novel. Stephen Williams directed. Brian K. Vaughan, the comics writer behind Y: The Last Man, wrote it with Melinda Hsu Taylor, in the first of her four Lost scripts.
Where things stand: Desmond has gone looking for Daniel’s mother, and the people left on the Island have been thrown back to the 1950s. The Oceanic Six still have to find a way back.
This is a Kate episode. She faces losing Aaron, and the time-travelers see familiar events from a new perspective. Evangeline Lilly talked about this episode at length in the official magazine. It rewards a good memory of the first season.
