LOST 1/28/09
 

Well last week was a bit too much. What did everyone think?

What will happen this week?

Re: LOST 1/28/09
 

Last week was way too much.

I'm not expecting a lot to happen this week. Probably further setting up the plot for future episodes.

This whole time dynamic is going to get out-of-control pretty soon, though.

Ben has to break stupid-ass Hurley out of prison now.

Was soooooo pissed at Hugo

Re: LOST 1/28/09
 

I know! I hate Hurley so much! He is such a pain in the ass all the time. Would've been much better if Charlie was alive and Hurley was dead. Hell, I'd even be happy to have Anna-Lucia alive over Hurley.

Ben and Locke FTW!

Re: LOST 1/28/09
 

Hurley is my favorite. His summary of the plot for his mom was spot-on for just how ridiculous the plot for the whole series has been. That was perfect tongue-in-cheek writing, kudos to the Lost writers.

Re: LOST 1/28/09
 

Wow. That was ridiculous. Things are starting to come together.

That was actually really awesome. When they dropped who that certain person was. OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG

Re: LOST 1/28/09
 

Question is where was Ben during that time?

Re: LOST 1/28/09
 

Thought he was still a kid. So he could possibly be on the island, since he did meet Richard, as we saw in earlier seasons

Re: LOST 1/28/09
 

What I'm unsure of is how Richard has seemingly escaped aging at all.

Is it because he's never left the island since he first arrived there?

Because Ben has aged on the island.

It's so frustrating when an episode ends!

Re: LOST 1/28/09
 

Swimming around in his dad's balls I reckon.

Re: LOST 1/28/09
 

Also, that whole Locke telling Richard to find him being born thing was CRAZY! Especially looking back at that episode last season where Richard does show up at the hospital after being born.

In that same episode when Richard visits Locke when he's a child and asks him which of the things he laid out was his. Richard looks pumped when kid-locke is about to go for the compass and then gets mad when he doesn't.

IT'S ALL COMING TOGETHER!!!

What if Widmore is dying of some incurable disease, and he wants the Island's secret of eternal life?

Re: LOST 1/28/09
 

Re: LOST 1/28/09
 

What?

That would be hi-larious.

Re: LOST 1/28/09
 

Another thought.




Faraday tells them to bury the bomb in concrete.

In the original hatch there was a big concrete wall of some kind that drew small metal objects to it.

Perhaps the bomb is in the hatch and the reason they made the hatch in the first place was due to the island's electromagnetic properties potential to detonate the bomb.

The hatch was essentially taking stored up electromagnetic energy and shooting it back down into the island (I think). Perhaps when the charge gets too big it could detonate the bomb explaining why they had to press the button every 108 minutes.


Now when Desmond turned the failsafe key something else happened entirely. When he did that, the island did that weird light thing that we now know happens when there's wacky time shifts. So what if the failsafe mechanism is designed to send all of the objects of the hatch to another time. This could make sense since I'm pretty sure the only thing that survived was the hatch door that got blown off.

Nothing else was left behind except for a big crater. Perhaps it was designed to teleport all non-organic material which would also account for Desmond waking up in the jungle naked. And his proximity to this time warp would logically be what unstuck Desmond in time.

That is a solid theory, Dylflon. The pieces are definitely coming together.
