[Boston]

That scene where Kelvin dragged Desmond had a Planet of The Apes feel to it.

 

[stbugs]

Any thoughts on this from Henry to Michael: "Even so, you'll never be able to find this place".

Henry knew the trick (I believe he was being truthful) to getting off the island. Desmond didn't and thus never got away and neither did the first raft attempt. Remember they kept mentioning how big the island was, almost as if, they were really going away from it?I assume since there is a trick to get off the island, that there is probably a trick to getting to the island. The only way there is if an incident occurs and you are close enough (flight 815 and maybe Rousseau's ship?) or if you accidentally get there (Desmond and maybe Rousseau).

I wonder if Henry Gale was an attempt by Penny to find the island and he crashed as well, maybe during one of the incidents or maybe he was from Widmore and was supposed to do some work on the island and just crashed landing it. Then again, he could have landed it unsuccessfully, and Henry killed him.

 

[ScottNorwood]

WTMF?

So, we have all these people on Flight 815, that have all these connections to each other. We have Desmond and Libby meeting and her giving him the ####### boat that crashes. We have the Others with the names of people who are good and bad . . . . . BUT DESMOND CRASHED THE ####### PLANE BY ACCIDENT!?!?!?

No, he was tricked into crashing the plane. The others knew what he was going to do based on their psychological tests. They set him up perfectly so he would crash that plane. That's how the others knew exactly who was on that plane, and who survived. It was all orchestrated by them.

Good point...probably had his suit ripped by accident knowing that desmond would see it and follow.

And then he died on purpose so Desmond would go back. Now you're catching on.

 

[Brewdude]

But magnets still shouldn't attract sailboats.  That part is silly.

I don't think it did and I don't think anyone said that. Just coincidence that he was lost in the same area. If she wasn't Widmore's daughter she doesn't have any clue about the island.By the way, did you not catch the part with the storm and how he was knocked unconscious from the waves crashing on his boat. The storm crashed his boat, he just drifted to the island.

Not that I think the electromagnetism crashed Desmond's boat, but does anyone else think its interesting that Kelvin first told Desmond that there was no boat and then spent months fixing that boat in secret?

so he lied to him, he needed a guinea pig to keep pushing the button

Except Kelvin just happened to be by the beach when Desmond was there, with enough time to get back to press the button.And he happened to be wearing his yellow Dharma containment suit, which we saw him take off earlier as there really is no "sickness".

He probably figured since Desmond didn't get sick the first weeks or months he was there, that the quaranteen/sickness was a hoax.

Eventhough Kelvin "joined Dharma," I think he was just part of the experiment. He wanted to get off the island and tricked Desmond into entering the numbers so he could leave. He was going off to fix the boat, not meet with other people.

I didn't notice that

 

[Boston]

AND WHAT'S UP WITH THE "LOOK" JACK AND KATE EXCHANGED AT THE VERY END??????????? IT WAS A CONFIDENT NOD.

I saw that too. I almost expected them to be in cahoots with Henry and company at that point. Looked like it was going to be one of those WWE moments where a wrestler turns bad.

 

[Dr. van Nostrand]

AND WHAT'S UP WITH THE "LOOK" JACK AND KATE EXCHANGED AT THE VERY END??????????? IT WAS A CONFIDENT NOD.

I was disappointed in Hurley; not even a "No". He just went along with what the Others told him to do.I wanted to see a Deer Hunter escape sequence.

Fabulous episode - really tied a lot of stuff together.

You Lost freeks are gonna hate me for saying this, but they just jumped the shark.

No way they can top the last few weeks.

That was Jack saying "we're doin' it when we get outta this." Kate agreed and Sawyer was WTF?

 

[Challenge Everything]

Except Kelvin just happened to be by the beach when Desmond was there, with enough time to get back to press the button.

And he happened to be wearing his yellow Dharma containment suit, which we saw him take off earlier as there really is no "sickness".

Kelvin mentioned that Desmond was out there for some time so Kelvin "just happened to be by the beach" is not accurate.

Ok. Explain the suit.

Could have been a ruse to keep the "hostiles" away from him. He was a military guy so he may have known when the Others/Hostiles were following him or not. The suit equals a gimmick to test the Hostiles to report back that subject Kelvin is playing along with the experiemnts?

Poor use of the term. "Jumped the shark" does not refer to "the climax," it refers to the death throws of a show. LOST is clearly in it's prime right now.

So what would they report about the months/years he spent with the suit off, presumably I guess, while he fixed the boat?

Desmond was there for 2 years before he followed Kelvin out. Kelvin probably did think there was a sickness, but once Desmond was fine after a few months, he just kept Desmond in the dark and went to work on the boat. Kelvin was going to bolt at some point since he had a replacement.

One thing that I wondered about was how much did Kelvin know about the hostiles? He and his buddy, let's call him Cobain, did quite a bit of exploring and drawing the map and obviously never told Desmond much at all since he didn't even know about the Pearl. That map had notes about the incident so Kelvin and Cobain could have been there for a long time.

They saw a bug eyed Jack Bauer sneaking up behind 'the others' with his gun aimed and ready for use.

 

[Cunning Linguist]

From another board:

Okay. Here is my grand theory. Desmond said that the whole island is a snow globe and that there was nothing but the Island and water. Now, let's see, the sky turned white...That doesn't happen normally obviously. Well, maybe the whole island is a snow globe. Maybe the whole island is: Island and Water contained somehow. Maybe there is only one area of the containment field or whatever that one is able to leave through, which is where Michael and Walt were told to go (325 degrees). And maybe, if this whole island is contained, maybe it moves? And since Desmond's girlfriend was the daughter of Widmore, she must know a lot about the island. Maybe she knows he is there (it could have been her father's plan to get Desmond stuck there) and now, she set up a search team to find the island, since it moves. Now that the electromagnetic signature was found, they called her saying they found It: The Island. And it's not like there isn't a huge amount of evidence. It's a freaking research lab. It's supposed to be isolated. And they have artificially created or atleast altered animals. Sounds like a snow globe to me...

------------------------------

Rememeber when there was a food drop? Didn't the doors shut, alams go off. Maybe te "shield" was turned off so thing scaould fall on the island.

Sorry - but if you don't see it, you are blind.Where do they go from here? The mystery of the Hatches is pretty much solved. The only thing left is confrontation with the Others - which is, IMO, fairly derivative, and not very interesting.

Sorry guys, I sincerely doubt they can top what we saw the last 4-6 weeks. Still will be a good show - better than mnost everything on TV - buit I think we just saw the best episodes they can do.

They are now on the back side of the story's arc - a story the creators admitted has an end.

I predict two more seasons.

[packersfan]

Where do they go from here?

Answering the main question that's still left hanging:Why are they all there?

And there's still a ton of things about the island that have yet to be fully explained. No way is this show jumping the shark. You just got done saying how fabulous it was. Shows jump the shark when they suck; not when they're fabulous.

ok

 

[BGP]

OK.

1. The island itself is somehow "lost". This is quite clear now. Its like some sort of Bermuda Triangle. We get this from numerous references. Henry telling us "God doesn't know about this island" several episodes ago. Desmond couldn't find a way out. And there is a specific heading that must be taken to get off the island. I guess the magnetism anomalies are somehow hiding this island and cutting it off.

2. The "others" are obviously not a part of Dharma at all. They may in fact be "good guys" somehow trying to fix the magnetism issue.

3. Henry Gayle may or may not be the leader of the Others. I question it for a couple reasons. One, the hooks for the show were that we find out what crashed the plane and we find out what happens when the button isn't pressed. I think they would have also said "we find out who the leader is". The other reason I think he may just be middle management is that, with everyone asking "are you him?" they would confirm his identity by having someone ask "are you him?" and him saying "yes".

4. The ancient statue probably is a clue that the island has been lost for thousands of years. Whatever magnetic issue is on the island is a natural event that is being harnessed, controlled or monitored by the system in place.

5. Explain the food drops. Ok, someone at Dharma obviously knows the location. But its also obvious other people at the top do not know the location of the island. Best guess there is that the Hanso / Dharma project is so clandestine in nature after 20 years of screwing around that literally no-one knows everything that is going on, not even the highest levels. Or it could be that someone at the top really does know and its all a big game. Should be one or the other though.

Do you know what "jump the shark" means? It certainly doesnt apply here.Personaly, I will be glad if they end it in 2 seasons, rather than see ABC go against the writers' wishes and milk the show for all its worth.

When they find out that Henry Gale is actually Alexander the Great* and the rest of the Others are from the great city of Atlantis, you will be removing your foot from your mouth.*Little known fact about Alexander was that when he was four and out and about at the great Macedonian Fruit Market, his foot was run over by a Persian in a chariot, and his pinky severed, thus fueling his desire to kick some Persian ###.

Okay. Here is my grand theory. Desmond said that the whole island is a snow globe and that there was nothing but the Island and water. Now, let's see, the sky turned white...That doesn't happen normally obviously. Well, maybe the whole island is a snow globe. Maybe the whole island is: Island and Water contained somehow.

Now that the electromagnetic signature was found, they called her saying they found It: The Island. And it's not like there isn't a huge amount of evidence. It's a freaking research lab. It's supposed to be isolated. And they have artificially created or atleast altered animals. Sounds like a snow globe to me...

I think there is some merit to that. There's lots of stories that begin with a very narrow focus. Gradually, you pull back and encompass more and more of the big picture. But eventually, the storyline tires out as the initial mystery is gone.

Pretty close to how I feel about it.The most interesting storyline from the entire first two seasons has been, pretty much, wrapped up - for me anyway.

Not like I don;t think the show will be great, but th emost interesting thing to me was the mystery of the hatches.

Sorry guys, I sincerely doubt they can top what we saw the last 4-6 weeks. Still will be a good show - better than mnost everything on TV - buit I think we just saw the best episodes they can do.

They are now on the back side of the story's arc - a story the creators admitted has an end.

I predict two more seasons.

ok

I think there is some merit to that. There's lots of stories that begin with a very narrow focus. Gradually, you pull back and encompass more and more of the big picture. But eventually, the storyline tires out as the initial mystery is gone.

Pretty close to how I feel about it.The most interesting storyline from the entire first two seasons has been, pretty much, wrapped up - for me anyway.

Not like I don;t think the show will be great, but th emost interesting thing to me was the mystery of the hatches.

Do you know what all the hatches are for?Do you know why the electromagnetism is being created?

The most interesting storyline in your opinion. Not even close in mine. I still want to know why all of them were brought there -- was it really just an accident and if so why have the writers spent so much time establishing the multiple connections so many of them have? That's why I don't buy the "Desmond just f'd up and that's why the plane crashed" theory. So much of what we've seen so far has been to establish that the island is used as an experiment so that leads me to believe the plane was deliberately crashed and these particular people were meant to be on that island. The question is why? And that's the big question that obviously can't be answered anytime soon. But I'm going to keep with the show until it's answered.

Oh, and I'd like to know where in the hell that monster is that killed the pilot too.

Any thoughts on this from Henry to Michael: "Even so, you'll never be able to find this place".

Henry knew the trick (I believe he was being truthful) to getting off the island. Desmond didn't and thus never got away and neither did the first raft attempt. Remember they kept mentioning how big the island was, almost as if, they were really going away from it?I assume since there is a trick to get off the island, that there is probably a trick to getting to the island. The only way there is if an incident occurs and you are close enough (flight 815 and maybe Rousseau's ship?) or if you accidentally get there (Desmond and maybe Rousseau).

If there's a "trick", then we've got to be talking about some 4th dimension or some type of supernatural stuff, right?

Not really sure. Hard to respond and keep up with the thread, getting tired. If the course of 325 gets you off, then maybe there is something about the island, EM or who knows, that throws off navigation. Desmon said he was heading West all the time, but maybe he really wasn't because like Sayid said early in Season 1, his compass was off based on where the stars were.Not saying that the island can't be found no matter what, i.e. 4th dimension, but Henry knows enough about the island that normal navigation will be inaccurate and thus people who think they know will go somewhere wrong.

Also, if only one direction works, then maybe there is something about the currents that causing everything to come back to the island except that one channel. We have seen the raft and Desmond's escape attempt both land right back at the island even though both were just drifting.
