Lost Season 4 - Desmond and Penny in 1996

Part 1 - 1996.

As the helicopter that Desmond and Sayid are being transported on flies through a storm, Desmond begins having "perceptions" of another reality of himself. This reality shows Desmond ranked as a private in the British Army's Royal Scots Regiment. He begins flashing back and forth between these realities, and the shifting causes Desmond to lose all memories of the Island and Sayid, who is accompanying him on the helicopter. It is further revealed that the shifting perceptions that Desmond is experiencing is actually a form of time travel. Desmond speaks to Daniel Faraday who tells him when he reverts to the memory of him in 1996, he must go to Oxford University and find the past Faraday. Faraday was working on a time machine. Desmond is also told that he must find a constant, something or someone that is the same in both 1996 and 2004 that he can use as a reference point. He uses Penelope as a 'constant' from the past and future. Desmond realizes that in order to save his life he must make contact with Penny on Christmas Eve 2004, when he places a call from the freighter in order to stop the time dilation. In 1996, he manages to find an angry Penny who does not want to see him and asks her to pick up the phone on Christmas Eve 2004. When he reverts to the present, he makes the call with the help of Sayid. She answers the phone and tearfully tells him she has been searching for him and knows about the island.

Henry Ian Cusak is a brilliant actor, after Michael Emerson and Terry O Quin, I'm always impressed by his acting skills, so profound and emotional, I love his line "I won't call...for 8 eight years". Although penny and des were minor characters at first, they turned out to have one of the gr8test love stories on the show!
