How to Catch Up?

I skipped last night's episode of Lost, the one where someone dies (tear? hooray?). I haven't checked the web to see who the sorry person was who was eaten, drowned, hung from a tree, mauled, or suffered some Other form of grisly death. Not sure I want to know. The conundrum: Do I try to find out by poking around the web or do I stop watching completely and wait for the second season to come out on DVD?
