all I see are a whole lotta excuses gentlemen. AND DON'T TRY TO PRETEND LIKE FORGETTING SARAH MARSHALL WAS A "MOVIE"!!

Take it to the Veronica Mars thread, folks. If there is one.

hey i was catching up on last week's colbert report and the tuesday episode had a cute Lost shoutout - in the Cheating Death segment, there was a brief image of a check numbered 4815, dated 9/22/04 and made out to Jeremy Bentham. :)

OK we are caught up now! Thank U Pillboxx for the link, signed happy Lost fans in 3rd world country.

We can't use torrents b/c we are on public computers and they won't let us install torrent software (which I can understand), but they will let us DL from megaupload or wherever.

Is this thread NSFW now?

i wanna know where Richard was when 815 crashed and whether he thought 'oh so THIS is how Locke gets here' (assuming he remembers Locke from '54 onwards). and why he can't just be Others leader himself (maybe his unnatural long-life makes this untenable somehow or his 'powers' need to be controlled in this way - damn Jacob and his red tape).

Richard was in Miami checking up on Juliet's sister when 815 crashed.

Has anyone else been reading the episode recaps on Pajiba? They're pretty great.

So have we talked about why Widmore is funding Faraday's research? If the project was to find a way to send one's mind around in time without dying--then perhaps Widmore wants to send his own mind back to a specific point in the past so that he can do something differently.

Presumably he's also funding Charlotte's research and, well, whatever it is Miles is going?

Yeah, it sucks we don't know a lot about what Charlotte's research is. When she found the Dharma Polar Bear skeleton I thought it was a sign that the Dharma organization had been around for thousands of year (sort of like on Millennium when they found the 1000 yr. old body with the Millennium symbol) but now with all the time jumping, it could be that that was a present-ish day bear transported into the past somehow.

well or he is Faradays secret dad xpost

it could be that that was a present-ish day bear transported into the past somehow.

or transported forward, as Ben was when he moved/left the island

OK, who is with me?

L O S T!

Does anything watch the repeats with the pop-ups? Apparently last week they spoiled that Miss Hawkings' first name is Eloise. (Ellie, right?)

I'm watching the repeat right now.

Question: Take the last scene in last week's episode (the one that's repeating now). Locke is talking to Richard Alpert, then he's like "oh shit time warp sorry", the screen goes white. What does Alpert perceive as this happens? Does he watch Locke disappear? Or does Locke continue to exist there? I mean, obviously he would probably disappear. But then wouldn't everyone in 1954 immediately ask "hay where did that one guy go"?

So did Jin just drift into the island's dome of weirdness after the ship blew up? Because I thought the ship was well outside of the area.

Anyway, as soon as Locke said "Anyone read French?" I knew exactly what was coming.

Also, I do not like revenge-minded Sun. I liked it better when there was a possibility she was a double agent working with Ben to trap Widmore (but that idea's been nixed).

The scenes from next week show how Sun will agree to going back, but that still leaves Kate, Sayid and Hurley to convince.

So I'm guessing the oceanic 6 are constants for important people on the island. but WHICH ONES?

jack: juliet
kate: sawyer ("skate" pretty much proven in this episode)
hurley: ?
sun: jin
sayid: ?
aaron: claire?

sawyer was so u_u it was kinda sweet but also 'ok, move it along guys we get it'

so the van Sayid and Ben are driving around in says "Canton-Rainier Carpet Cleaning" on the side. Canton-Rainier is an anagram for "reincarnation." Just sayin'.

Canton-Rainier

I knew it had to be an anagram for something, because...it's LOST.

So I'm guessing the oceanic 6 are constants for important people on the island. but WHICH ONES?

jack: juliet
kate: sawyer ("skate" pretty much proven in this episode)
hurley: ?
sun: jin
sayid: ?
aaron: claire?

What if Jack's constant is Claire? Do we know she's not alive? What if Ben is someone's constant? Maybe that's why he wants Aaron. Who would it be for Locke? Also, if someone got far enough off the island, would they still time travel? Also, did Frenchy ever mention Jin in her notes?

Also, I think that redhead and miles are both as good as dead.

anyone speculated yet as to who got the court order to get the blood tests from kate and GOOBER?

my guess is that it's a ben thing - freak her out, make her flee, make her more amenable to going back

:D

I don't think constants are as important to the overall story as everyone else in the world does. Desmond needed one because his consciousness was traveling back and forth in time because he'd been slapped with a crazy dose of radiation via the Swan imploding on him and they sort of didn't go through the bearing correctly when the helicopter first left the island. The consciousness travel made it impossible for him to discern who/where/when he was. That's not so much the case with Locke & Friends. They'll solve the hemorrhaging in some other way.

It's quite possible, but it's a fun theory to play around with.

"his consciousness was traveling back and forth in time because he'd been slapped with a crazy dose of radiation via the Swan imploding on him and they sort of didn't go through the bearing correctly when the helicopter first left the island"

this show sounds so stupid sometimes. but it's pretty cool while you're watching it!

Also, "he's my lawyer" was lols.

meh Miles is Dharma dude's baby crying in the first ep yes?

Jin being alive = "Island won't let you die" = how Ben convinces Sun to go back.

also does Rousseau not remember Jin when she meets him later? I know she's batty and it had been 16 years but I'd imagine she'd remember a Korean dude named Jin mysteriously washing up on the same shore as her team. Or maybe this is another one of those weird time/memory things.

And i've noticed that they've been quite clever about having certain people NOT meet. Charles Widmore recruited Charlotte, Faraday, and Miles for the freighter mission but apart from Faraday, he never met them in 1954 (being conveniently on another part of the island with Juliet, Sawyer and Locke instead). plus Dan never told the Others their names. Was it a coincidence or did Widmore already know that they were all connected to the island when he recruited them?

I'm starting to think Ben is an idiot.

First, he goes by himself to try to recruit Hurley. Should have had Jack come with him, or just sent a dart dude to tranq him.

Now he's got Jack & Sayyid part way going along with him, but undermines it by sending lawyer after Kate & telling her he did.

All the I'm-only-being-devious-to-save-you stuff might end up working because the O6 have mostly been written as morons, but Ben is not quite the genius I once thought he was.

The Oceanic 6 stuff is really really boring compared to what's happening on the island. I hope they get back to the island before the end of the season, or even before mid-season.

The rest of Danielle's party died when "the sickness" came, remember? What's the betting the sickness includes short term memory loss and nosebleeds?

yeah and Danielle/Alex are the only ones who survive because oh hey Jin is her constant.

Or because she gets injected by Richard's crew.

Or by Juliet.
