Monday was a big day – 108 days until the premiere of Lost S4.
We went over to Candy and Bruno’s and we watched 2 epis of Lost S1 – Solitary, where Sayid finds the cable and Hurley makes a golf course, and Raised By Another, where Claire gets pregnant, gets dumped, meets a psychic and they figure out that Ethan is an Other. Both are fantastic episodes.
A few things that struck me as I was watching –
Do I believe Rousseau’s story? She seems very crazy to me, and she says that she killed her whole team.
“Our vessel was 3 days out of Tahiti when our instruments malfunctioned. It was night, a storm, the sounds. The ship slammed into rocks, ran aground, the hull breached beyond repair. So, we made camp. Dug out this temporary shelter. Temporary. Nearly 2 months we survived here, 2 months before...”
In Epi 18 she gives a different story:
“Our ship picked up a transmission, a voice repeating those numbers. We changed course to investigate. After we shipwrecked my team continued to search for the transmission source. It was weeks before we found the radio tower.”
Those are two totally different stories, so she is a liar. In one she says that the instruments malfunctioned and in the other she says that they followed a transmission to the island.
Sayid took the maps from her and later said they were covered with song lyrics and equations. Is this possibly connected to the Looking Glass? It would be a nice tie-in with the cable since Sayid finds it that day.
Thomas dumps Claire pretty suddenly. One minute she is telling her BFF how great everything is and the next he comes home and dumps her. She was certainly manipulated onto the plane. In fact, she is one of the only characters who we know for a fact someone paid money to her manipulator (Richard Malkin) to get her on that plane. Artists are considered to be pretty weak-minded on Lost.
And on that note, here’s my list of who I think was supposed to be on that plane for the purpose of getting them to the island:
Claire – Richard Malkin was paid by someone to convince her to board a plane the next day and give her daughter up for adoption in LA.
Jin – Papa Paik intended the Rolex to end up on the Island – it might contain a tracking device.
Hurley – by using the lottery numbers he came under the influence of the Island. I think that the curse he encountered was actually trying to keep him from getting to the Island.
Eko – he was sent to the Island.
Libby – We haven’t seen her FB yet, but I think we will find that she was sent to the Island.
Locke – turned down from Walkabout. I think that a normal outdoors organization would have accommodated his disability. He is right – people in wheelchairs do outward bound types of trips all the time.
People who were on the plane by accident
Jack – he had to fight his way onto the plane, and CS wasn’t meant to die.
Sawyer – the Australian govt is not part of this conspiracy.
Kate – the FBI is not part of this conspiracy
Sun – Papa Paik meant for her to leave Jin at the airport.
Boone/Shannon – Were meant to be in first class and die.
Charlie – Was supposed to be in the tailsection and die.
Sayid – Was supposed to leave a day earlier. The CIA is not involved in this conspiracy.
Ana Lucia – Was supposed to be with CS who was doing something Island related and who wasn’t supposed to die.
Rose/Bernard – I’m not sure about this one.
A question:
Why doesn’t Sayid speak any French? Doesn’t it seem weird that he speaks absolutely no French since he lived and worked in Paris?
SPOILER
There is supposed to be an early death in S4. I think it is Sun.
