"Monsters Are Such Innnteresting People" is an orchestral piece from the Season One soundtrack. It plays during the season finale.

Scene descriptionEdit

Locke, flat on his back, has just seen the Monster, and it scares him far more than the last time they met. He gets up and runs. The monster drags him to a hole, but Jack arrives in time to grab him before it drags him in. Locke asks Jack to release him, but Jack has problems letting go.

Kate arrives. Jack tells her to throw dynamite from his pack, which she thought she was carrying, into the hole, Against Locke's protests, she complies, freeing him.

InfluencesEdit

The piece uses the action motif and the Dark Territory motif, transitioning into the Monster motif before ending on Locke's motif.

Title significanceEdit

In the 1952 Looney Tunes cartoon Water, Water Every Hare, Bugs Bunny remarks, after meeting a monster, "You meet such innnteresting people". Though Lost had not revealed it by "Exodus, Part 3", and Michael Giacchino likely did not know it, the monster takes the form of several interesting people.
