Professor Thom’s, the bar that’s painted a seemingly random series of Lost-style numbers above its entrance, is throwing two parties. Get in line early for the free, limited-capacity, first-come first-served affair upstairs, with free jungle juice Jell-O shots every time Hurley says “dude” or Desmond says “brother.” Downstairs is ticketed, but your $20 gets you three drinks and one raffle ticket. 219 Second Ave between 13th and 14th Sts (212-260-9480, professorthoms.com). 6pm; Lost finale free, Lost finale viewing party $20.
Online magazine Slate is offering insights into the show, with hosts including Chadwick Matlin, who taught a college course on the social, economic and technological implications of Lost at Tufts’s Experimental College. A happy hour between 7:30 and 8:30pm—including Ana Cortez’s favorite drink, tequila and tonic—will loosen you up for a preshow discussion, in which correct predictions for the ending will earn you a prize instead of those strange looks you’ve been getting. We think Hurley will pull off his skin to reveal he’s actually the polar bear/smoke monster/God. 92YTribeca, 200 Hudson St at Canal St (212-601-1000, 92ytribeca.org). 7:30pm; $5.

Beer garden Studio Square has a regular Lost viewing night organized by the Queens blog/forum/pep squad Why Leave Astoria?!, so expect a rapt audience watching the final episode on one of the five mounted 42-inch or single 60-inch HD TVs with surround sound. Make sure the $5 glasses of sangria, $12 Blue Moon pitchers and $5 Lost on the Beach cocktails don’t make you rowdy, or you’ll be more unpopular than the Others. Studio Square, 35-33 36th St between 35th and 36th Aves, Long Island City, Queens (718-383-1001, studiosquarenyc.com). 6pm; free.
If you don’t think you’ll be able to sleep after having your mind blown seven ways to Sunday by the ending, hang out at Fontana’s free projector screening. They’ll follow the climax with an “Aloha to Lost,” on Jimmy Kimmel Live! at 12:05am, which features creators Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof. Just don’t get too blotto with the $3 Radebergers, or themed cocktails like the Hurley Burley (Goslings dark rum, Malibu and Coke; $8) during happy hour from 7 to 8pm. Fontana’s, 105 Eldridge St between Broome and Grand Sts (212-334-6740, fontanasnyc.com). 7pm, free.
