I am not jumping to conclusions but who else knows Mike's name? Unless Walt told some stuff, which is possible I guess. Still there is a puzzle with the new footage.
I actually liked the backstory more than the "present day" storyline. But overall the episode just kind of plodded along for me. I did like the scene at the end between Jack and Ana and the Hurley-Jack scene was fun but overall it was on the dull side. Until the end.
That's the first thought I had. Coming right on the heels of the film specifically saying the computer shouldn't be used for any other purpose and then to have Walt suddenly pop up for Michael seemed awful convenient.
Exactly. And i agree with the backstory comments...theyre so critical to the shows story...if it werent for all the michael walt eps we could never truly understand michaels motivation, especially now at what appears is going to be a big turning point in the story.
Maybe the Others never knew where the original survivors were. Ethan did all the killing before... maybe he was using a different bunker all together and also never knew of the Others.Wait a minute. Ethan was a part of the Boat crew possibly and the Others as the Tailies know them is another group. So there were four groups now condensed to three with the Boat people knowing where the Survivors were but could never get to them because they had so many people. The Others knew where the Tailies were because they landed in their territory. Ethan may be Kelvin and Danielle is on another part of the island... where another one of the six bunkers are.
Ugh. The promo should have gone: "Everything you think you know about Kate . . . is completely accurate!"Was any of her backstory remotely surprising?
Not really but it further emphasized the duality of her character and why she is torn between Jack and Sawyer. They represent the two sides of her character which is why she is constantly pulled in both directions. Now if the storyline is played out logically this is only going to serve to push Jack to Ana (which won't be a hard sell anyway given their chemistry) which would appear to be something the scene between Jack and Ana was hinting at.Edited to add and I liked the point Grid made earlier about how so many of the characters come from parents who have disowned them. It puts a nice twist on the show's title.
Desmond said Kelvin was dead.You are suggesting that Ethan is part of the boat group and that Goodwin knows nothing of Ethan or the boat people? It may be circumstancial, but Nathan saying he was from Canada and "Ethan" saying his name was Ethan and that he was from Canada is suspect. In both cases, an outsider infiltrated a group of the survivors and worked to abduct some of them. I think Goodwin and Ethan were part of the same group.
Okay okay. Has everyone come into an agreement about the following thoughts:Ethan and Goodwin knew each other and were apart of the Others
I don't know about them being a swat team, just seemed like they were undercover since they knew she was on the run and would be on the look out for uniform cops.
... based on what we know to this point.- Ethan and Goodwin used similar tactics and had similar information.
Good stuff here.Six bunkers of which two maybe three are being used or have been used... that we know of.
"Tonight, on a very special episode of 'My Two Dads'..."
I think he just assumed Kelvin was dead because he went outside.
They didn't reveal much.....except.Eko smashed the Virgin Mary statue to reveal the heroin inside, how would he have know there was heroin inside? Some evidence for him actually being a drug plane survivor.
I figure he was on the drug plane, and has been on the island longer so was able to collect some of these items.....although the eye might be his.
I really don't know. Just throwing that out there. Eko's eye was definitely weird looking during his Bible story. Who knows how long ago that drug plane crashed. If he were part of it, maybe he's been there long enough to have something to do with the film.His eyes just really stood out to me last night......
Oh well, the thread has actually gotten a lot better than earlier this season since it has slowed down. I just avoid the spoilers that I know are going to ruin the episode. I always like to find out stuff that I missed in the episode.Anyway, to answer you question Tick, and thus make the thread more interesting to you, I think there is a very obvious reason why the film was cut. Whoever did the cutting wants someone in the hatch to use the computer to contact other people, not just for entering the numbers.
Good lord this thread sucks.He was on the 815 plane. Maybe he was destroying a "fake idol" and that's why he found the heroin. Or maybe locke told him what was inside. I don't know how you can connect from a 2 second preview snippet that he was on the drug plane and has been on the island for a while - despite him crashing with the others 3 episodes ago.
The guy behind her in line and the one in the car when the horse first appeared was the marshall from the plane. The guy Sawyer tried to euthanize. Those were federal agents in the train/bus station, not simple cops.
Yeah I know who it was. I didn't see a SWAT team, that's all. She fled the state so I'm guessing that's where the Federal Marshalls come in.
And Eko sure didn't seem to know anything about the tailie bunker. He just found the book with the film because it was the bible and that was important to him.I do have a thought now. Maybe the spliced part of the film was taken by someone who was in the hatch when the first incident occurred. Maybe Dharma covered something up where the computer was used to communicate to other bunkers and thus ruined all of the experiments that they had going. The person in the hatch knew this and played along with Dharma, but he cut the film, hid it and went to the tailie bunker. That box was his personal effects.
Do you know that she was still in Iowa at that point? I thought that she was already on the run, so they could have just been showing the point at which she got caught. Her Army dad said he was going to notify the authorities and if her Army dad was not in Iowa, then maybe the federal marshalls got involved.
I wouldn't go as far to say that the thread sucks, but I absolutely agree with you. Things that you see are pretty much the way they were intended. If Eko is shown on the beach and in the ocean helping people two seconds after the crash, then he was on the plane.The previews attempt to throw people off the track. It was only a couple weeks ago that the previews/episode info tried to insuate that Locke and Charlie were going to battle for Claire. Nothing like that even remotely happened, it was more about discussing Claire's and Charlie's relationship or lack thereof.
The arrest scene just seemed over board for me. If you saw that scene without knowing her crime I think you would have though she had done more.
