Ji Yeon
2 years ago by WillRead more: Lost Episodes, season 4, Sun
So what do we know about tonight’s episode?
- Most of the actors/actresses involved with Lost have referred to this particular episode as “the most shocking” of the first seven – that alone sends chills up my spine
- Ji Yeon does not literally translate to anything (as far as I have been able to research, staying away from spoiler-filled info) – so it is probably a reference to the name of a person we will meet tonight
Spoiler Warning
ABC’s Official Show Description
“Juliet is forced to reveal some startling news to Jin when Sun threatens to move to Locke’s camp. Meanwhile, Sayid and Desmond begin to get an idea of the freighter crew’s mission when they meet the ship’s Captain”
So – what could the “shocking” development be? We know that this episode will be divided between the Island and the Freighter – so one might assume that the shocker will be the big reveal of Michael as Ben’s man on the boat (if you subscribe to that theory)… But, I think that is too obvious and something much grander will take place tonight, especially in light of the fact that we have to wait another four weeks for Episode 8.

Ha! First!
I can’t wait to find out who Ben’s man on the boat is. But there are other questions I’m dying to have answered
1. What’s the story behind the four-toed statue and the temple?
2. Who is Jacob and what are his powers?
Anyone have any info on these?
Comment 2, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
Ha! Second! I can’t wait either. Finally, hopefully, we’ll be able to put to bed the whole “who is Ben’s man on the freighter”. Less than 4 hours to go, for the enhanced ep, that is!

pretty sure that we get one more episode next week before the non-hiatus break. I know they had discussed breaking after this one, but I think in the end they decided to show all 8 and then do the break.
Comment 4, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
I know plenty of people think having Michael on the freighter wouldn’t be surprising. But I think the people on this blog are very unique. They have really dissected this show. Where as the majority of the people who watch this show probably never even considered Michael. I would imagine the people that read this blog are in a very tiny group of the viewership. It may not surprise you but it will surprise 99% of the viewers. Just my opinion.

It would supprise me because I still think that although Michael may be there Walt is Ben’s man. Much of the logic behind it being Michael is that we know he is returning to the show and think this is where he will show up. After more thought I don’t think Michael would make a good spy for Ben. He reacts without thinking and I just don’t think he is smart enough to do what Ben needs. I guess we will all find out tonight.
Comment 6, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
i agree that Michael being Ben’s man on the boat is wayy to predictable. michael will show his face on the show soon enough, but being the man on the boat is too easy. he might be one of the Oceanic 6(8), along with Walt, since Ben let them leave.
i think Sayid might be Ben’s man on the boat since we already know that Sayid is working for Ben in the future. Or it could be Desmond, secretly working with Ben since he has his own reasons to get off the island. Ben and Desmond havent really reacted with each other at all in any episode in any season, its a very broad possibility. Both Sayid and Desmond volunteered to go to the freighter, and Sayid even convinced Jack not to go (i may be pushing it on this theory, i dont quite remember this specific interaction between them, but i know they talked).
My house goes on Lost lockdown in T minus 4 hours…

I hope that today we find out who Ben’s man is. I have a feeling that its going to shock us! He is probably not going to be Sayid, Michael or Walt. But who knows. I can’t wait for this episode because I read a few things and its going to be GOOD! I also want to find out who the Oceanic 6 are going to be. I think that its going to be Jack, Kate, Hugo, Sayid, Aaron and Jin.
Comment 8, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
Okay okay… the O6
Jack
Kate
Hurley
Sayid
Michael
Walt
We already know that Walt and Michael have left the island (may even be back with the freighter) however, since they left the island… the would be part of the O6
Which is better Lost food?
Pizza, Spaghetti, or Mexican takeout??? Hmm?
3 1/2 hours.. yay!

We know the four…I think it’s rather obvious, by the title name, that at least Sun is one of them. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if Jin is the other one. Just because Michael is Ben’s MOB, doesn’t mean he was ever exposed to the real world as being a survivor

No, but that’s my opinion and just because a show is centered around someone doesn’t mean that person is going to make it off the island or that they are included in the O6.
Comment 12, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
I hope nobody is disappointed tonight but I believe we are going to find out (finally) who the O6 are. NEXT week they are supposed to reveal who “Ben’s man” is. It would be wonderful if they explained both tonight but I do believe we have another week to wait for the the man on the SHIP reveal.

I recall D&C saying that this episode has a sort of cliffhanger at the end. ( and because of that, they had suggested to ABC that they make this the last episode aired before the hiatus, but ABC overruled them)
Comment 17, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
Thanks Lost4ever, I misunderstood somewhere along the line! How exciting is that then??? We will learn who the O6 are AND who the man on the boat is??? I can’t wait!
What is this talk about a hiatus? Are they taking a break? When and for how long? This may give me time to re-watch the first 3 seasons again or quite possibly get a life for a few weeks. I’ve been trying to figure out how to tell my niece I can’t finish the stained glass project for her wedding in May! Yikes!!! (Just kidding, I think)

1- OK Losties…my prediction on “Ben’s man on the Boat” is…… Locke!!!,how would that grab yea.Who ever it is ,it will be cool.
2- Where are the Rousseau Girls ???,they are not on the Beach with Jacko,they didnt go to the “Temple” with Alpert,and they are not at “Othertown” with Locke/Bens crew either,so what gives?
Comment 19, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
The hiatus blunder was my fault – I’ve erased from the post to cause further confusion. We will get Episode 8 next week and then the 4 week break. Toeknee – I’ve actually read episode 7 and 8 provide shockers – but reiterate what I put in the original post about this one being defined as the “most shocking” of what we have seen thus far – pretty interesting considering my head is still spinning from the Economist and the Constant.

I seem to remember Claire telling Kate (during the laundry scene) that she saw Rousseau take Ben to the basement of “Locke’s” house in New Otherton. That would lead one to believe that Rousseau (and probably Alex) are actually in Locke’s camp.
Someone asked about the “break” between the first eight and the last five episodes. This is necessary because of the WGA strike. D&C have promised that the remaining three episodes “owed to us” for this season WILL be made up in seasons to come. We WILL get our final 48 to finish out the series as promised – just not three blocks of 16 as originally planned.

I’d say that the identities of the O6 will be quite important, as that will affect the future of the show.

Just thought of this, but having Michael Ben’s MOB would be something Locke needed to sit down for, because he knows they kidnapped Walt, so why would Michael start helping Ben out? Plus Locke believe dude got off the island. Sorry folks, it’s Michael.
It’s a good thing too, because I couldn’t find the right shark jumping music track.
Comment 39, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
Just watching the enhanced version of “The Other Woman.” Did anyone catch the Dyson commercial? The Dyson guy references “Faraday’s Engine.” Here’s what I found on it on Wiki. Do we have to start watching all the commercials for clues now too? It would suck for us – but be brialliant for advertising dollars.
Faraday’s disk
Faraday diskIn 1831-1832 Michael Faraday discovered the principle that electromagnetic generators are based on principle later called Faraday’s law; that a potential difference is generated between the ends of an electrical conductor that moves perpendicular to a magnetic field. He also built the first generator, called the ‘Faraday disc’, a type of homopolar generator, using a copper disc rotating between the poles of a horseshoe magnet. It produced a small DC voltage, and large amounts of current.
This design was inefficient due to self-cancelling counterflows of current in regions not under the influence of the magnetic field. While current flow was induced directly underneath the magnet, the current would circulate backwards in regions outside the influence of the magnetic field. This counterflow limits the power output to the pickup wires, and induces waste heating of the copper disc.
Later homopolar generators would solve this problem by using an array of magnets arranged around the disc perimeter to maintain a steady field effect in one current-flow direction.

Damn! RIP Jin. That was a pretty sad revelation. Pretty well done. Not sure I see why they felt the need to fake us out with Jin’s flashback – it didn’t really tell us much about Jin that we didn’t already know, so it seems the only point of it was to fake us.
Still, a good episode.
Does Jin die on the island? So he’s not one of the O6? (he’s one of the “8” that survived the crash?) That would make Aaron one of the O6. (sorry if a bunch of people already wrote this)

That ending confused the shit out of me y was she asking for Gin when he’s dead, and the Gin FF’s were really FB’s right? WHY would they do that to us.
Also does this mean GIn was in the coffin in last seasons finale.
And Ben fakeing the crash was creepy, how did he kill all those people and get a fake plane. That takes a lot of people and resources for someone who “seems” to only have 30 or so followers on a island in the middle of nowhere

When Sun is in her hotel room before she makes a phone call she turns off the tv. on the tv is a scene where a man in a suit with long hair has a brief case full of cash opened to a man in a cowboy hat and alady walking in the door looking surprized.

i don’t think jin is really dead. i think he’s still on the island. his date of death was the day the plane crashed, and his death must be part of the “story” everyone the O6 are telling everyone. i think when sun says she missed jin, she’s missing him because he’s on the island, not dead.

IF we find out who the other 2 are, I am going with Jin and Claire. Sun would be allowed to bring her husband’s body home and Jack (if he finds out Claire is his sister) would be allowed to bring his sister home or Aaron’s real mom would be allowed to be brought home.
Comment 87, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
If the date of death on the tombstone is 9/22/04, then maybe in reality (well, the reality of the sho) Jin didn’t die? Maybe he’s still on the island for some reason? I mean, if he really is dead, why would the O6 have to tell the world he died in the plane crash?
Comment 88, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
So, Ben and his team constructed the fake crash to get Widmore off the scent of the island?
Ben still has Walt captive?
Jin is not an O6′r, so does that mean that Aaron is?
The best part about this episode was the convo Bernard had with Jin and the convo that Jin had with Sun after the fishing trip. Oh yeah, and ofcourse finally finding out that Michael is Ben’s man on the boat!
Comment 89, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
Hey Omar, comment 59…. I thought the boat said Karma too but it didnt. It said “Kahana” and when you look it up one of the meanings is hawaiian for basically “to go with the surf” and it is also the name of a state park in hawaii. I think a couple weeks ago the little facts on the bottom mentioned they got a local hawaiian research ship for the part so that seems logical.

I hope this hasn’t been posted yet…access to this blog has been very slow for me….
2000 and 2012 are the closest Years of the Dragon, so based on that, Jin’s story was most likely a flashback.
Comment 91, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
I usually just come on here to read what everybody has to say but tonight I’m going to add something :)
I really think that Jin is still alive on the island. And possibly Claire will be also. The gravestone had the date of the plane crash as his death. Its a fake gravesite. And Sun said that “I miss you”, she didn’t say anything about him being dead. The O6 come back to the real world and tell this big lie and that is what leads to Jack going crazy and wanting to go back…because they are living with the guilt of knowing they left everybody alive on the island.
Comment 92, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
Jin must be a flashback. the year of the dragon is either 1988, 2000 or 2012. So Jin’s flash was likely occuring in 2000.
What still needs to be explained is why the grave says he died the day the plane crash? That would make him neither an O6 nor an O8.
So is he really dead, or just still on the island, and sun and hurley’s way if showing him the baby is to go to that fake grave? I have to see that scene again. Does Sun acts like he is really dead? or just still on the island?

Since when did this blog, usually filled with amazing revelations, become a personal chat board? I don’t mean to be Debbie Downer, but please keep your personal “shout outs” to e-mail or another forum. I cannot believe that I just read through 87 posts and maybe a third of them had nothing to do with LOST.
Moving on to the show…
1. I’m totally confused. Is Jin really dead? Was that a flashback mixed with a flash forward? Did Sun’s father, much like Penny’s, have something to do with faking a death? I noticed the date of death was 9/22/04.
2. Why do the Oceanic 6 have to pretend they are the only ones who survived? Does Aaron count as an O6er? Who is directing this lie?
3. Did Penny’s father arrange the fake crash or did Dharma? And who are the 324 dead people?? What does Ben have to do with it? Is he so desperate to keep the island a secret?
4. Why is Michael working for Ben? We know Ben is a liar and always calls in favors but since Michael brought him Jack, Sawyer, Kate and Hurley, you’d think they’d be even. I guess not.
5. Why was Hurley glad no one else was coming to Korea to see the baby?
6. I found Jin’s forgiveness speech confusing. His words went like this:
I withheld my affections…I know what you did, you did to that man…his actions caused this. So I forgive you.
What does that mean?????????? His actions caused the affair? It’s weird how quickly he forgave her. Very touching, but strange.
7. So happy to see Bernard! He and Jin have opposite situations…Jin’s wife dies if she does NOT leave the island, Bernard’s wife dies if she does. Tough call.
8. Who got shot in the head on the boat? That blood stain looked like an execution-type murder.
9. Why did Regina kill herself? Or is she really dead? Could she have gone to another underwater station?
10. The captain is very good looking :) I’d trust him more than Ben or Michael.
11. I still do not trust Juliet…she’s very underhanded, despite good intentions.
Well, that’s it! If anyone can shed light on my questions, I’d greatly appreciate it. I hope next episode’s blog is filled with useful info!!!

Maybe the main place Sun and Hurley are going is not the cemetery. Maybe it is just a stopover and they are going to some other major event.
That would explain why Sun called out for Jin during the delivery. She was given some kind of medication and wasn’t concentrating on the “official” story.
Both her and Hurley are dressed in black though so I wonder where else they could be going.
And why didn’t Jack show up? Was this before he flipped out?

NO, on the gravestone it had his date of birth on one side… and the other was the date of the crash. 2004, 9/22… so the O6 had to make up some story to say that Jin died in the crash. It’s likely he’s still alive on the Island b/c the scene in the grave yard seems like sun is still talking to Jin.
Comment 98, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
My stray thought. Jin got Sun pregs before 815. Jin has been a vision, the entire time… like Walt, Chris Shep, etc… since before the flight. Or, Jin died when 815 crashed. Remember all of the “look at the wedding ring” shots. Jin was a vision the entire time. Bernard was fish-busting, ghost-busting the whole time… sending ghost Jin to the great beyond with his ‘kharma’ lecture. Heck… Rose may be past history as well.
I am just happy Sun’s baby didn’t have a Sawyer-doo and start spouting Red Neck Nicknames…

Okay, this may be totally crazy, but is it possible that Walt is still the “man” on the ship? I KNOW that Michael is ON the ship but Walt could still be the spy.
Why was Hurley the only 06er that went to Sun’s side? He looked happy that nobody else came, why?
Becky, I know some of my comments were not related to the show and I am sorry for posting them. I think a lot of people are really geeked about the show and the blog and just wanted to burn off some energy before the episode and say hello to people who have become like friends in an some way.

i don’t know if i’d prefer jin on the island unreachable for sun or dead and still unreachable for sun….but either way jin is totally not the man in the coffin, he would at the very least have sun there. i’m surprised hurley is the only one that would come to see sun & jin’s baby. no kate who was there when sun found out she was pregnant and one of her island buddies. jack doesn’t come who was one of her baby doctor’s on the island and is one of the people i’d think would be there making sure ji yeon & sun are still ok, especially if he’s always traveling to asia with his golden pass. juliet doesn’t come to see if babies born off the island but concieved on the island can be born (even if she’s not part of the 06)since she was so concerned this episode about it. i mean, nobody but hurley? they really are all disconnected!

INCREDIBLE !!!
I can’t believe I even waited this long. I think I read an earlier post about waiting 15 minutes to get “into” this site. Is this “thing” too popular now so that after the latest episode finishes the servers are overwhelmed ?
If you look at the the time stamps, I counted 63 posts BEFORE the episode was even over.
Anyway, I had to rewatch those last 5 minutes again and I remember the numbers on the grave marker in pairs 4-4, 11-9, 22-27 plus others I’d have to rewatch again. That’s reading left to right (Korean/Chinese could be different).
My take was that Jin had to survive the rescue because he was trying to get to the hospital as Sun was about to deliver and must have been killed right after he got his phone smashed and lost his taxi to . . . who?
The scene where he was taking the panda to the “Ambassador” must depict him as working for Suns’ father BEFORE they left Korea (he said he had only been married 2 months) and was actually a flashback.
The “Man on the Boat”: The obvious, but as someone said, it wouldn’t necessarily seem obvious to the casual viewer who doesn’t obsess like we do.
And correct me if I’m wrong, wasn’t that Nikki who jumped off the boa . . . er, ship ?
You know what they said: “Things don’t stay buried on this Island”
The Captains Name: What did he say his name was ?
In general, a great ep. They answered a few questions and set us up for a real “cliffhanger” next week.
Does anyone know the schedule ? Is it 1 more ep and then a wait until September or what ?
Comment 106, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
Jin is alive. He said he would do whatever it takes to ensure the safey of Sun and the baby–including staying behind on the island if it were required. For some reason, then, he must have stayed behind so Sun and the baby could leave and survive. Sun continues to grieve and miss him because he is alive.
If the above is true, then it ups the stakes for getting back to the island. The stage is being sent for the great return to the island in the subsequent seasons. Maybe Sayid is working for Ben so that his friends can one day return and be reunited with the island and its inhabitants.

“…Found it wierd when Sayid stated that the boat was not moving and the doc maid some remark as if he was disagreeing….”
And Sayid also said he heard some noises that sounded man made rather than machine made.
Maybe the ship captain wants them to think they are moving but they are really stuck. So they are making fake noises to sound like the ship is going somewhere.
But why would it matter if the ship wasn’t going anywhere? Where should they be going?

Jin married 2+ months when he died (in the crash).
Sun delivers as an OA-Sixer. Jin or Jae is daddy?
Jae is dad, because Jin can’t conceive after death.
Time distortion confirms Sun’s ‘accelerated’ pregnancy is less than 9 months.
Sun lives because conception was pre 815.
Gin dies because of Disney anti-DUI policy.
Hurley adopts baby Ji Yeon. Marries Sun. Moves to LA suburbs. Hires Kate as nanny. Jack as pediatrician. Sayid as security…

No one goes to a grave site and talks to someone that they know is still alive. Jin may not be dead, but Hurley and Sun sure think he is. And there are plenty of graves in this world that don’t have bodies in them, so there is no given that Jin’s body came back from the island.
Re the conversation between Bernard and Jin, I kept waiting for Early Hickey to show up with his list.
Plus, i think we still have one more of the Oceanic Six to be revealed to us. We can speculate about Aaron, but I really think there is one more.

I find it hard to believe that Sun would be so emotional at the cemetary if Jin was not really dead. This may be a little too obvious to be true, but Jin may be the one to die next week, as previewed. Even if he’s not (I’m leaning towards Michael after the Captain learns that he is the one sabotaging the boat), he will at some point before the rescue. That explains why his date of death (as reported on the tombstone) was the date of the crash. He’s one of the two people the Jack referred to during Kate’s trial. In regards to the second person, I don’t think it’s Claire simply because everyone refers to Aaron as Kate’s son.
My theory on the Oceanic Six:
Something REALLY shady went down to allow those six to leave. It was probably some scheme devised by Ben (which explains why Sayid is working for him now). Ben is probably threatening the Oceanic Six with lives of thier friends left on the island. We all know that Ben has the capability to kill everyone on the island if he chooses to and he’s holding that over their heads. I think the show will end with the Oceanic Six finally turning on Ben and going back for their friends (hopefully!).

Also, at the beginning of the episode, when Sun turned off the television, what you saw was the season finale from Nikki and Billy Dee Williams’ show not some sort of Sawyer story. I can’t remember the name of it (sure there are plenty that could recall it off the top of their heads, but it had the Cobra and Hurley called it the “coolest show ever”) but “razzle dazzle!”

Yes, a big part of me believes that Juliet really wanted to help Sun. She said that Sun was her patient. I go back and forth with Juliet, sometimes I believe she is good and other times, not so good. I want to believe she is a victim also. She DOES want to get off the island, right? I think she does desperate things and I certainly did not agree with her telling Jin about Sun’s affair but she did it to keep them there.
Wow, please tell me she is a kind hearted person with good intentions!

I think the reason Kate did not come visit Sun was that she is stuck in California for 10 years on probation.
So sad about Jin. I think it’s possible that he is alive on the island. I agree with whoever said that it sets up the show for a return to the island.

I agree. As much as I hate trusting Juliet anytime, anywhere… I really think they are setting Juliet up to be an honest Abe in the end. Of course we all know what that means – she will be Ben Jr when all is said and done.
After this episode I really wanted to erase all of my tapes… reboot my PC from scratch and start watching again from S1E1. I am also contemplating a Karl visit to the “Clockwork Orange” room 23 on Hydra Island for a little brainwashing reboot – as good as Ji Yeon was – it was equally as frustrating. And my damn hockey team LOST!

First off:
Sun = Woman = Wife
Jin = Man = Husband
(I got really confused by the posts that mixed them up.)
Secondly, yes, it was an episode of Expose on the TV in Sun’s room. HILARIOUS!
I definitely think Jin is really dead, even though the O6 cover story means that the date on his tombstone is wrong. Why would Hurley suggest that they “go see him” and accompany Sun to the cemetery if he weren’t truly dead? If Jin were still stranded on the island, Hurley and Sun could just stay at her house to talk about how much she misses him. People don’t go to cemeteries to discuss fake deaths.

Please forgive if this is not the right place to post this, but I am wondering about the theory that the show is loosely based on a book written in 1933 entitled Lost Horizon.
I found it a the library used book sale…can you believe that??
Anyway, it’s a quick read and interesting. The “island” in that book has powers that let people live for hundreds of years. The Lost Island obviously has powers to heal and extend life.
Has anyone else read it and what do you think? I don’t want to spoil the book for those who want to read it.
So, I’m just wondering if this blog has already discussed the connection to the book and the show?

I don’t understand this fake death stuff. Either Jin died or they honestly “believe” he is dead. This whole fake death discussion is a little ridiculous unless they are being followed. I mean it can be some conspiracy but like others have said, who goes to bring a fake dead guy his baby?
Sometimes I hate Juliet and sometimes I don’t. I think what she did was wrong but very clever. I think maybe Sun realized that Juliet must have really wanted to keep her from going to Locke’s camp.
I want Juliet to get off the island to see her sister, but I think she is going to die. Plus I think her sister on the TV in Mikhail’s station was fake. I think Ben set that up but…..

The FB kind of sucked. Seemed like filler. Kind of a let down. Ben could be behind Jin’s staged death. I think Jin could still be on the island. The o6 are living a lie, with lies on top of the lies. They don’t even want to be around each other for fear of looking each other in the eye and staring the lies in the face. I think part of the o6 pact was to get Aaron & Sun off the island for safety reasons. We know partly why Sayid became an o6er. Why Hurley? Why Jack — just to be close to Kate?
I’m pretty sure they are not killing off everyone from 815 that is not an 06er. The other survivors must stay on the island. I suppose some might die in Ben’s war. Why would Jack purposely leave people behind so he can go back to work? Have they been fooled into thinking everyone else is dead?
Comment 144, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
Okay… what if the “cover story” is true?
8 survived the 815 crash (pacific/indian ocean/wherever).

8 is part of the lie that the Oceanic 6 tell to the public. Some believe it is relevant, some believe it is just a lie and not relevant. Time will tell.
Without a doubt Jin’s entire part of this episode was a FlashBACK. At the end he says he’d only been married two months. Thus, the year of the dragon has nothing to do with the story IMO. In fact, I don’t even think the store owner said it was the YOTD, but I could be mistaken.
I believe Mike is def. in the coffin because that’s why Jack was so distraught. He believed Mike could eventually recall how to get back to the island, so he wouldn’t have to keep continuing to do his “hope to crash by fate” trips. It was in a black neighborhood, no one was at the funeral because it was an assumed identity, and hence no one knew who he was.
I need a screencap of that suicide story again, because I think folks made out a John on it, and thought John Locke, but it could actually have been Johnson.
I think Regina just went crazy, like a lot of other folks on that freightor. (Brandon, and whoever blew his own head off resulting in the blood stain). That would mean the affects of the island are different for everyone, and not necessarily making one prone to time travel.
Still not sure if Widmore is bad bcuz if Mike is working for Ben, and he tells them not to trust the Captain…I think it is because he’s being manipulated once again. I hope they didn’t capture Walt again, but I’m thinking they did which is why he was able to appear to Locke on top of the pit.
I think Jin had to be part of the “O6 story” somehow because he is the father of the child, which I’m sure could be proven through testing.
I think Aaron is an O6 now, because I thought we were supposed to know all of the O6 at the end of this episode? If Jin’s tombstone says 9/22, he CAN’T be an O6. Thus Sun is the only one that was revealed in this episode.
Sun’s FF is taking place in a relatively short time frame from when they get off the island, as she is having the child. IMO Hurley had not gone into the mental institution yet. I think each FF is going in reverse chronological order from the Jack meltdown.
Props to everyone who called Aaron as an O6(if it is right).

Becky, The first 87 or so posts were us LAA members trying to connet. Please be patient with us addicts.
Why did Des notice the paper droped into the door and Sayid not. It seems he would notice.
I don’t think the captain said who staged the crash. He said that Widmore owned the freighter and fount the black box and then said the crash was staged and mentioned how much that would cost. I don’t think he said who did it.
OK, so everyone before either thought Michael was Bens man or not. It was mentioned several times that nobody trusted Michael anymore because he Ben had gotten him to kill Anna Lucia and Libby. So, when this season started I let my daughter, who is now in high school, start watching Lost. I had mentioned several times that Ben had not told Michael to kill Anna Lucia and Libby, that Miss. Clus had asled him to rescur Ben and the killings had “just happened.” My daughter pointed out tonight that the losties still don’t know that Michael killed them. He blamed it on Ben and everyone baught it. The losties probably think of Michael as a good guy, still.
I was reminded of the book “Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds” in how we, the audience, were handeled in this.
I think Jin is really dead or Sun and Hurley would not go to the cemetary.
Much more, but I am overwhelmed.

ok, you with the whole time distortion thing? so it seems like it wouldve been a flashback, cuz jin was in the year 2000, but what if they thought they were on the island for a couple of months, when it was actually a couple of years. cuz des and sayid were gone for a day before they got on the boat, but for them it was like…an hour. so that would explain why sun is still pregnant in the year 2012. that is, if jin is actually alive and in korea.

My take on the Oceanic 6 (not 8) from what we have seen so far is:
(1) Hurley-in the loony bin.
(2) Jack-visiting Hurley and testifying for Kate.
(3) Kate-beating the criminal wrap.
(4) Sayid-Ben’s hit man.
(5) Sun-giving birth.
(6) Is still unconfirmed.
Jin’s story line in this episode is an obvious flash BACK. So far Hurley, Kate, Jack, Sayid and Sun have been identified as one of the Oceanic 6. Kate’s son Aaron has not been directly or indirectly referred to as one of the Oceanic 6. For all we know Kate could have simply named her son Aaron. The last member of the Oceanic 6 is undefined. Maybe it is Claire’s son Aaron posing as Kate’s son, however my money is on a surprise sixth coming up before hiatus.

now….moving on to jin
Jin was referring to The man he used to be when he speaks of “you did it to that man, and i forgive you”. If you recall jin was sort of a real prick to sun before the island, and he didn’t even start to loosen up until towards the middle/end of season 1.
AS for the bloodstain in the wall in the cell. Its my opinion that it looked more like someone shot themselves in the head threw their chin while on their knees. The blood splatter was aimed kinda straight up and was very high toward the ceiling. (remember i said opinion. I’m no expert.)
I agree with trusting the captain over Ben or Michel. HOWEVER, he works for Widmore and i think Ben and widmore go hand and hand. Their both cut from the same evil cloth. The question is do you trust the lesser of two evils aka: widmore?
Hurley is a complicated fellow isn’t he? I believe that he was glad no one else is coming because he hates awkward situations and he’s not for seeing jack or anyone else for that matter. It probably never set right in his stomach that he had to keep the island a secret and people like jack and Kate talked him into keeping his mouth shut.(theory)
Now i have question for you. Its my belief that Sawyer is the last survivor and I could be wrong but hear me out.
In the end of season 3 their is the first flash forward that shows jack calling a meeting between him and Kate and during this meeting Kate says something like ” he doesn’t know I’m here” when she meets jack. “he” being sawyer?

If Jin’s story really is a flashback, it just goes to show how the creators will do anything to try to mislead the viewers.
Like someone else said, it was unnecessary filler and it’s main purpose was to fool us, because the creators and writers are such geniuses.
Or were they just trying to fool the spies in Hawaii into making us think Jin was an Oceanic 6?

I think that Jin is still on the island. The reason being – if you recall the conversation Jin has with Bernard on the fishing boat. Bernard talks about karma. When you do something bad in life, you get disciplined for it later on somehow.
Jin, like Locke, is a murderer. Regardless of Jin being told to kill, he has killed. He will be disciplined some way or another. His discipline is to remain on the island and to never see his child.
The island is about redemption. I believe the creators of the show said that from day 1. What you did in the past will be erased on the island, but when you get off the island, you go back to your original life.

What makes you all so sure that Jin’s story was a flashback? How many times has Lost thrown you for a loop in the past 3+ seasons? My theory is that Jin and Sun both returned to Korea. Sun’s father, Mr Paik forced Jin to work for him again and was furious that they attempted to go to America. He blames all of what happened on Jin. Remember? They went to Australia and were supposed to return to Korea, not flee to America. In light of this, Mr. Paik threatens Jin with death if he ever goes near Sun again, forces Jin to work for him in China (he was not in Korea during the flashforward…the Panda was a clue…there are no Pandas in Korea), and somehow fakes Jin’s death, hence Sun and Hurley visting his fake grave. I may be wrong, but I refuse to believe that he is really dead. Mr. Paik has the money and power to pull off something like this. Perhaps he even threatened to kill his own daughter/grandchild to keep Jin away from her.

Some one made the comment about Michael being deaf. I like that. Would make since with the style of communication he has been using with Sayid. (Note under door, possible S.O.S code though the pipes noise)
I would say Michael is coming back to redeem himself and safe his “friends” or once he got off the island Walt was either taken or went back to the island on his own.

I usually try to read through all of them before I post, so I apologize. I noticed the noise too. It sounded like morse code or something, so maybe Walt is being held captive and that’s why Michael’s there. But I don’t know how that was pulled off. Maybe there is a different person who’s Ben’s “Man on the Boat.” He or she could’ve orchestrated Walt’s capture. I dunno.
And when the captain was talking about the bodies on the plane, my immediate thought was of the people in the Purge. Maybe they used those bodies. But now I’m just remembering the pit Locke was in, soooo, maybe not….

The shopkeeper says it is the year of the dragon – ergo it is either 2000 or 2012. It COULD be a flashforward to 2012, and Jin has remarried, but then why would he still be working for Paik? And why would he be carrying around a giganto cell phone? Doesn’t fit. I think it has to be 2000.
The gift was NOT for Sun, it was for the Chinese Ambassador. The Chinese Ambassador would not BE in CHINA, but Jin would be smart enough to get a Chinese symbol FOR the ambassador. There may be no ACTUAL pandas in Korea (is that even true?) but there certainly can be STUFFED ones! LOL
FWIW, while the episode was on, I totally bought into the idea that Sun and Jin were in simultaneous flashforwards. In fact, I thought “What?! Jin REMARRIED? So quickly?” and didn’t catch on to the big cell phone. It wasn’t until Sun and Hurley were at the cemetery that I realized they were in different flash times.
I also originally thought that Sun REALLY believes Jin is dead. But looking back, I think she just REALLY misses him and since he has to appear dead, it is her way of mourning their separation.
The whole Hurley thing is just as confusing as Claire asking to see Miles last week. But I have come to realize that there is pretty much a reason for EVERYTHING!
The Regina thing has me puzzled. None of the boat staff seemed to give her jumping off the freighter a second thought until Desmond and Sayid said something. Maybe that is something Regina does all the time (going down to a sub? going down to another offshore underwater hatch?) and they pretended to react to give credence to the suicide story?
Another crazy-awesome, keep-em-guessing, on-the-edge-of-your-seat, tear-jerker episodes!

I think with the Regina suicide the crew had no reaction because folks had been going crazy for awhile now. Captain said he didn’t want to lose anymore folks trying to save people.
I doubt she’d wrap herself in some heavy chains to swim down to a submarine, and how would she get in the sub anyway? The signs that she was going crazy was her reading the book upside down. If there was a sub, wouldn’t they try to use that to get the hell outta dodge? If it is broken, why would she go to it? I believe she’s a goner.
It also makes me understand a little bit why there was no big deal made out of Regina dead body, since bodies are droppin all over the place.

HAWAIIAN SHIRT [subtitled]: Yes. I know you’re planning to run away. But you’re going to take that watch to Mr. Paik’s friend in California. You do anything else — anything — you will lose her. You are not free. You never have been, and you never will be.
If Mr. Paik is involved with whoever ends up allowing the O6 to be “rescued”, he may have arranged for Jin to either be killed or left behind on the island?

Jin paid for the gift (first stuffed toy) with 50,000 Won (Korean currency) or about $45 US Dollars (circa 2000). Jin did not pay 50,000 Yuan (Chinese currency) or $6,100 US Dollars for the gift. So yeah, he was in South Korean. Besides the corner toy store in China won’t exchange currency for you and certainly won’t respond to you in Korean.
Cell phone question? Not all cultures adopt cutting edge technology as soon as it arrives (like in the West). Modern/Digital coverage is not common in much of the Far East. Older phones are used because – they work! I’ve see lots of the old fashion (early 90’s) “brick-sized” cellular phones still in use. Where do you think many of our old cells go when we recycle?

Des may not have lost his ability to travel in time, and so he could have been going from ship to shore for a long time now. Also, if Des sent the note to himself, he would have noticed it before Sayid.
Des could have also opened the door through which they escaped in last week’s ep.

I usually have more revelations after I sleep but reading all the posts in the morning sucks.
Anyways I do think the whole flashforward/flasback in the episode was tied around the whole karma or “what you did comes back at you” but centered around a baby.
Jin goes so out of his way for Mr. Paik in Korea to give the Chinese official’s grandson a panda present. And I bet jin will go above and beyond for his own unborn child. Jin’s conversation with Bernard really helps him understand the previous situation in Korea and forgives Sun. (I got confused too for a while, I thought he was talking about Jae).
The dates (which are year, day, month vertically) is the day of the plane crash. I really do think he is dead since Sun is wearing black to visit his grave (which she did for Jae as well in Korea). She is definately upset and as a preggo woman myself I admit she would only go to a grave with a baby if the dad was truly dead otherwise like someone said you would stay home.
Juliet pulled a dirty trick to get Sun to stay. I think she is a good person deep down but uses what she can to get her way.
It seems that Widmore would be more likely to stage the crash than Ben, as far as we know he has more money and resources (where does Ben get the cash to bring people and stuff?) The captain says its Ben and Michael sides with Ben saying to not to trust the captain. The captain wants to get Sayid and Des on their side.
Did Ben’s coordinates for Michaels’ boat land him with some Others so that Michael again has to work for him? Why would Michael voluntarily work for him, being away from his son. I think Ben has some hold over Michael now. Any ideas?

What about the doctor telling Sun that she must have a C-Section and then she gives birth naturally?
Also, Bernard brings up the fact that him and Jin are the only married men on the island. It is very strange that their were no spouses (husbands, wives, boyfriends, girlfriends) left behind when the plane crashed. Everyone was either single or their significant other was with them when the plane crashed.

Hi – Never posted, but have been reading awhile. Be kind :)
I think Ji was a flashback also because the shopkeeper didn’t seem to recognize him as an Oceanic 6. Sun was recognized the moment she walked into the hospital.
I also think Ji is alive – somewhere, possibly the island and it was a sacrifice in order to protect Sun and get her off the island. He stays so she can go kind of thing. Sun was crying out for Ji even before she was given the shot. I know she was in pain but do you cry out for your husband if you know he’s dead? Even though she may know he can’t be there with her she would still call for him – if she thinks he’s dead she doesn’t call for him. clear as mud?
Did anyone else start worrying that when Sun’s doctor didn’t show that something was up and they were going to take the baby from her?(flashbacks to Claire and Aaron)

I’m thinking this might be how Ben made all those bodies in the wreckage. Could he utilize that technology somehow?

Let me see if I can help you sort a few things out… Jin’s FB was useless. If you think about it, everyone from 815 has a grave. All passengers where shown to be dead and unrecoverable. Cap’n said they were all grieved, hence buried, by their families. Sun does think Jin is dead or she would be trying to get back to him, duh! Jack thinks everyone else is dead too or he would be developing a plan to get them rescued still!
How do you think the conversation went when Michael pulled his boat up to the frieghter? “Ahoy! My name is Kevin Johnson! Can I have a job as your janitor?!” — right… Obviously, Mike made it to civilization, changed his name so he would not be connected to 815 and could raise Walt in peace. But something happened to Walt, and Ben uses it to make Mike work for him. Hope this helps, sector. Seems like you’re not getting much love around here.

Please correct me if I’m wrong.
When we last saw Michael and Walt, it was when they got on the boat to leave. Back then there was a lot of discussion (on this very blog) whether it really was Walt- since he did not speak- or just an appearation of Walt. Maybe this whole time Walt has been held by Ben (with only Ben knowing the truth), and Michael was given orders to do whatever he needed to do to get on the freighter and spy for Ben. Thus, the real Walt is somewhere on the island- and can pop up to say hi to Locke.

The thing that originally confused me about Jin’s FB in this episode was that I didn’t realize they had been married since ‘00. When Mr. Paik tells him he needs to work for him for 6 months, I am guessing, because of the line of work, and other things, those months turned into years.
When he and Sun stopped talking pre-island, then that’s probably where Jae came in.
The issue with Jin’s karma is kind of complex to me. Since he does presumably bad things, he is doing it upon orders from Sun’s dad, in order to “protect” their marriage so to speak. He doesn’t kill the folks that Mr. Paik wants killed, and takes risks to spare people’s lives, even saying he can’t kill Jae to Mr. Paik.
I too agree that he must be dead, bcuz Sun would at a minimum approach her very powerful father and say, “Dad Jin gave up his ticket back to civilization so that Ji Yeon and I could live. Can you use your connections to go back and get him?”
Mr. Paik doesn’t know (or we are lead to believe he doesn’t) that they are planning to run off after delivering the 2nd watch in LA.

Just to point out: if Aaron is one of the O6 then Ji Yeon should be too, if the story is jin died in the crash, then sun was also pregnant when she boarded the plane (regardless of whose child it is) and so there would be no difference between the “status” of Aaron and Ji Yeon in terms of being considered part of the O6.
the only difference would be that aaron was born on the island and Ji Yeon was not. seems like to petty a difference to make one a member of the O6 and not the other, which both can’t be if you do the math.

Was his hand damaged, or might he have had a note to exchange??? didn’t anyone else think that was odd?…”
It did seem a little odd but I think the reason why was he wasn’t sure what the reaction of Sayid and Desmond would be.
Plus, he seemed to by trying to get away from the encounter when he was called to clean up the blood.

WOW!! Graet episode. Now, I know what some of you are thinking – Juliet was in it -how could it be a great episode and I usually feel the same way. This one was very moving especially the whole flash back/forward thing.
I think that Walt can look at an image and it comes to life ( bird in book he was reading), (Polar bear) and Ben tapped into that. That is how Ben can make people appear when he needs to – Juliet’s shrink,Kate’s horse,Jack’s Dad. Jin has really redeemed himself over the course of the show. Damn Juliet!!

Since Ji Yeon was never stranded on the island I’m not sure that it is a petty difference. The news report would probably say something like, “6 people were recovered from the plane crash of Oceanic flight 815 several months ago…name, name, name,name, name and an infant baby. One of the survivors is believed to be pregnant, and her recovery is nothing short of a miracle, blah, blah blah”
Plus Sun wasn’t pregnant when she boarded the plane.

I think the girl who jumped off the boat is the spy. Her last wish was to warn Desmond and Syiad. She was found out that’s why she killed herself rather then to face Ben and why the captain didn’t bother to save her. Just an idea
Comment 242, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
Sector 7- I don’t think Michael ever made it back to civilization. If he did, he could get the proper authorities to go to the island and save everyone there. Look at all the celebrity attention the o6′ers are getting; he would carry a lot of clout and therefore get the help he needs to get Walt and the other Losties back to the real world. My guess with Michael is that he went directly to the freighter from the island. The story of how he became Kevin Johnson is a mystery to me.
I think Juliet did what she had to do to help Sun and the baby get off the island. What good would having a gun do her? Would pointing it at Sun really stop her, Sun knows Juliet would never pull the trigger and kill her.
The biggest mystery to me is why Hurley was happy nobody else was coming to see Sun and Ji Yeon. Unless he was just happy none of the Bad Guys had shown up to hurt them.
I am undecided on the freighter’s captain; on the one hand it was refreshing for someone to be forthcoming with information (Sayid even alluded to that on the ship.)but on the other hand was the note saying not to trust the Captain. Right now I am leaning towards trusting the Captain and not the person (Michael) that wrote the note.
Comment 243, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
While I will never totally trash any Lost episode, I have to admit that the past one wasn’t one of the best. Yes, we did learn some new info., like the reapparance of Michael and the, at least, pretense death of Jin. But other than the newly revealed info., the episode didn’t seem to have the depth of previous ones. Maybe I am just getting upset already that we will have a break soon, and there will be so many questions left.
I did cry upon learning of Jin’s death. But after reading this blog, I am questioning whether or not he is actually dead, and I am hoping he is still stuck on the island. Obviously, some people remain alive on the island because Jack wants to go back so badly in the future. Would Jack be willing to leave in the first place – knowing that others are forced to stay behind forever? He even participates in telling a lie once he returns to the world, and I can’t believe Jack would tell a lie unless he really had a reason to do so. If there is one character that I beleive cares more about others than himself, it is Jack. I am not necesaarily implying he is better than anyone else, but he is clearly motivated by a desire to “save” others. That is, in effect, his tragic flaw.
I think the six who leave the island do so believing the others will be returning, as well. Perhaps once they arrive, however, Ben is still in charge of their lives, and things are not as they expected. We know he is in charge of Sayid. He may very well have had some power over them before they appeared on the island, and they just didn’t know it. They think they will be escaping, but just as everyone else who has tried to escape (Desmond, Walt, Michael, etc.) was unable to do so, they later learn they can never truly escape. Then, the problem becomes figuring out how to return.
The problem I can’t figure out is why they haven’t killed Ben. He must be truly important in the overall plot line, because there is just no way someone wouldn’t have killed him by now.
As far as someone dying next week, it’s not going to be Ben, so please make it Juliet.

I wasn’t really that surprised that Hurley was happy no one else was coming to see Sun and the baby. I think he wanted to just hang out and chill. Besides, who else would have come?
Kate (and Aaron)- not likely, can’t leave the US
Sayid- doing some weird undercover stuff for Ben (wouldn’t necesserily want hin around my baby)
Jack- probably the only other one I would expect to show up, but if not, would understand if it didn’t bother Hurley, since Jack tends to act a bit superior to him/ not take him very seriously.

LOL you can’t take it too personally if people don’t respond directly to your comments (I’ve had the same feelings on this and other boards). Last night especially, the board was running SO SLOWLY, I spent more time trying to log into the site than reading other people’s comments (and it’s not much better today) . And unfortunately after reading over two hundred comments this morning, I’m sure it’s hard for people to keep track of all of them. But I will say I usually enjoy your posts and I think you have some good, well-thought-out ideas.
Anyways, about your comments….
I had already said I thought the FB was useless (comment #70), so I agree with you there.
I also agree about some survivors staying on the island, but this too has been discussed over the past few weeks, as people have tried to figure out why Hurley and Jack say in their FF’s that they want to go back to the island, so this may be why noone here felt the need to pick up that line of discussion.
Not sure I agree with Sun trying to get back to Jin if he were alive. There’s a lot about the circumstances of the rescue that have not been explained yet. I could see Jin still being alive and staying on the island, but I could also see one of the conditions of Sun’s rescue were that she must never try to find the island again, or her baby would be taken from her or killed. And whoever it is that arranges for the rescue is obviously very powerful, so I don’t think Sun would take a chance on that.
With Michael, I’m not sure if enough time has elapsed for it to have happened exactly as you said (he left the island with Walt about 30 days prior to last night’s episode). But I agree that Ben must have some sort of leverage against Michael. As annoying a character as Michael is, I still am looking forward to his FB episode that shows what happened over the last 30 days.

Sorry, just have to ask this. Was there any significance to Sun’s normal OBGYN being at a conference (or whereever he was)? If not, why would they throw that in there and not just have the regular doctor deliver the baby?
I know I am probably over analyzing to the nth degree but lately it seems like NOTHING is put in the show without some meaning, hidden or otherwise.
Also, Sun did NOT want her wedding ring to come off. I think you people are onto something here thinking Jin may still be alive. She was drugged and not thinking 100% and may have slipped back, as someone else has pointed out.
One more thing… LOVE THIS BLOG!!!

Wow Paul… you seem so certain that Juliet is bad. I wish I could finally pick a side one way or another. Just when I think she is bad (and am convinced of it) something happens and I feel sorry for her and think she is good.
I do think she has an extreme amount of info on the happenings on the island, and possibly the boat (ship, sorry)but she has a true and sincere desire to get off the island ASAP. She has been lied to by Ben many times. Also, wouldn’t you be acting a little desperate too if Ben came on to you and said you were HIS??? I might be joining Regina with a nice thick silver necklace if he said that to me!

Sun, wants to leave the island. So.. what about Hurley? He’s already said that he’s perfectly happy on the island.

I hope by referring to Jin’s FB as useless and filler you are doing it bcuz it apparently did not add anything to the story or answer any questions. I disagree in that (I am probably in the minority) I thought it was good to have the FB purely for the entertainment value of the current storyline, to keep us on our toes. So in that vein it has redeeming qualities.
The Nicki Paolo episode, to me was more of a filler episode. I guess I’m just nit picking with you.
Far as Sun & Jin, I just think that as much as she loves(d) Jin, I can’t see her being so matter of fact about going to a fake grave with a fellow O6er. Especially since she’s not blind to the power of her father, and therefore has the means to make stuff happen.
Wouldn’t they at a minimum say to each other in their private moment, “I wonder how he’s and our folks are doing back on the island?” Or, “it sucks that we had to leave them behind.” I mean I realize that they have a story they are living by, and the writer’s have to leave some mystery, but I dunno, it just seems like Jin’s death is the bombshell is dropped.
To have Losties choose to stay behind, of their own free will, and have O6ers not be concerned because it’s their choice is one thing.
Leaving Losties behind when it is not their choice to stay, and not really thinking about them is another thing. I am not sure why Jin would choose to stay behind, other than a blank “stay here or she dies.” It is her husband, and their child is quietly a miracle, in that they had been trying all that time to have one, and didn’t think it was possible. Now just go live your life and don’t think about Jin…that’s tough to swallow.
How much time would need to elapse to take an assumed identity? I would think Ben would have had all the particulars laid out so that it would be an easy transition to get on that ship.

Wait, there are 7, not 6….remember Sayid is working for Ben. So its Hurley, Jack, Kate, Aaron, Sayid, Ben and Sun….maybe 8, if in fact Jin is alive and faking his death to protect Sun and the baby from? Sun’s father? If they are known as the Oceanic 6, then we must have some that made it back under the radar of the media.

The people over at Lostpedia say that after Sun comes home from the hospital and is taking her wedding ring out of the plastic bag the name on the bag is Kwon Sung Heih. This could go in two direction. 1) she’s posing as someone else… possibly as someone who did die on the plane crash or 2) (and I’ll subscribe to this ) that she is seen as a *celebrity* and the hospital used an alias…

I was going for a laugh with my last couple of posts… Tough crowd.
Jack can’t go one day without being obsessed about saving someone. So he’s going to just let it go for year after he gets rescued, knowing he left people behind? No way. Same goes for Sun. After Jin said he forgave her for the affair and didn’t even know if the baby was his, Sun is going to pretend Jin is dead, knowing he is not, because Ben will kill her family? lostintime and RGS agree. There is evidence that this is not how Sun reacts. When her mom-in-law blackmails and threatens her, she goes to Daddy who does as Sun wishes. And Sun even got the last word.
As for Mike… 30 days? I was thinking it might have only been a week. If he’s been gone for 30 days then I’m 100% convinced he made it to civilization prior to the frieghter.

i just read 264 comments, and it’s all i can DO to keep pressing so i can comment! i need to write my thoughts down as i go, cuz i’ve forgotten some!
first: RGS (comment 158) — i don’t think the coffin article could’ve said kevin johnson. if you lostpedia the article, the name looks closest to “jeremy bentham.” also, i believe someone said on here once that it was revealed in a podcast that the person in the coffin is someone we haven’t seen yet.
i’m SO over who’s in the coffin. only because i don’t think we’re gonna find out anytime soon!
i also don’t think that the season 3 flash at the airport is the end. i think we’re working up to that to an extent, but i think that the plot will go past that…hopefully in an effort to return to the island. i think it will end with showing us what ultimately went down.
comment 169: i’m pretty sure i recall an episode where the truth came out about michael. i remember hurley going [to michael] “wait…did you kill libby TOO?!?” and getting SUPER pissed off. i think it was on the walk to The Others when michael revealed the truth about The List and how he HAD to take them to ben.
that being said, sayid has every reason to think that michael may be following ben’s orders.
if that’s the case, and assuming michael wrote the note, maybe the captain is telling the TRUTH.
i’m not convinced jin’s dead. the tombstone is a lie, what’s to say that the death isn’t a lie. that would be why hurley wants to be alone; he’s a horrible liar.
sorry dude.
i think it’s interesting that an episode of “expose” was on sun’s tv. that show must’ve been AWESOME for it to still be on in syndication. maybe ratings picked up after nikki’s death…

Well true. But unless the “island time” vs. “real time” plays into it, they would at least have to PRETEND she was pregnant when she boarded the plane. Or that she and Jin joined the mile high club. *g*
Regardless, if the O6 “official story” (some of which Jack repeated on the witness stand) says that Jin died in the crash (which it does, if we can believe the dates on the grave marker), then in that official story, he couldn’t have fathered Sun’s baby on the island (which we have been led to believe he did).

ROFLOL. I actually thought something similar! I thought that Sawyer would step out of the shower and Victoria Principal would say, “I had the strangest dream.” (And for those of you too young for the reference, bite me. Just kidding. It refers to Dallas, a night time soap which basically wrote off the worst year of writing by pretending the entire previous season was a dream. If I am not mistaken, it was that which inspired Newhart’s dream, which was FAR better anyway!)

I never caught that Jin was a flashBACK. I thought of them both as flashforwards. So Jin si in some “web” where he was decided to “fake” his death – for whatever reason that might be.
So it kind of line up two possibillities:
1) Jin is dead (if flashback)
2) Jin has faked his death (if flashforwards)
Anyway, all that stuff on the O6 is just guesswork. Just saying cause half the posts are about this, rather than discussing the facts we know and can calculate.

I agree Paul’s comment was hilarious to me too. Hmmm, your logic does make sense regarding Aaron and Yi. They are in the same situation as far as O6 story goes, very nice plot hole catch! Geniuses, or making it up as they go?…hmmm. I’m on the fence but leaning toward jumping to their genius camp.

The boat that Michael and walt where in were not meant for open sea travel. Sawyer states that in the first season.
I would asome that that little boat could make it much further out with out any sails. The freighter people picked them up on there radar. then picked them up. or walt got sick and Michael flaged them down for help.
So that would put both mike and walt on the freighter. Walt could be the reason people are getting sick and and maybe killing themselve.
Why the change of name from mike to kevin. Maybe he is afriad that people might find out what he did on the island so he change his name. More lickly Ben gave him the name and new he would be picked up.

Great episode! Wow…
What about the guy asking Frank if “he’s ready…” and then telling him “not to be late”…and now the helicopter is gone..what is all that about?
I believe Jin is alive on the island….and his episode was a flashback. (Often, asian countries have more advanced technology, not less advanced…cell phone was a dead give away).
Claire is gonna die…the writes said “the last of the Oceanic six will be revealed…” must be Aaron and Sun…When Sun called for an ambulance, she didn’t call her husband…a pregnant woman who has never had a child cannot tell a labor pain from “something is wrong…” labor pains HURT like something is wrong. She would have called her husband..unless she knew he was unreachable…on the island. Claire dies, Kate takes Aaron (instead of letting him be adopted…”omg, the baby we were supposed to adopt is still alive, he survived the crash…” “no, sorry folks, that is actually MY baby….Claire and “her baby” died in the plane crash….” that lie would annoy Jack!
I agree that Sun and Hurley KNOW they have to keep up the facade that the others are dead..that is why Sun goes to the grave…this helps reaffirm…to Abbadon…that no one is left on the island…those people are dead…(so he will leave them alone.) That is why they are glad “no one else came..” Meanwhile, Locke, Jin, Bernard, etc. are left behind..waiting for some way to get safely back.
I don’t trust the captain…we only have his word that Ben set up this crash with the bodies, etc. That would turn Sayid against Ben…maybe it was Widmore that set that up….
And leave Juliet alone….I like her…she is trying to do whatever she can so Sun won’t die. So she has told a few lies here and there….

Jin’s was a FLASHBACK… Has anyone noticed they use the “Swoooosh” (jet engine???) sound whenever they cut to a flashback and no sound whenever they cut to a flashforward???
Just a thing I’ve noticed and probably helpful in discerning the both in future episodes…
This is my first post, by the by… But you’ll be reading me often, hopefully…

A couple of people have said that Jin’s flashback was usless filler. I completly disagree.
Jin runs in and buys a Panda. Goes outside and hales a cab. Answers phone after putting Panda in “I’m on my way….Hello…..Hello.. Gets knocked away from cab by young Korean man. Cab pulls forward two car lengths while Jin trys to recover his phone. Phone ruined. Balding white man (Widmore) enters cab with Panda and cab drives away. Jin returns to store to buy another Panda and now there is one behind the counter that wasn’t there before. Shopkeeper says it’s already sold, then agrees to sell it to Jin. Says “Don’t loose this one.”
There is something more to this. One last thing, probably a production error. Jin Hales the cab by yelling “Taxie” in english.

Yo Becky! What up!! Shout out to ya!!
I have read this blog for a while but this is my first time responding.
I think that the O6 can’t say anything about the island because it will cause harm to those left behind so they have to lie. I think something happened with the rest of the O6′ers that makes Hurley not like them. Remember when Jack went by the mental ward to make sure Hurley hadn’t said anything? That was a very uncomfortable scene. Call me crazy but I don’t think Sayid is an O6′er…there is a reason why he works for Ben and has to do what he does to keep the island a secret. I think we are meant to believe that he is. This is why they cannot tell the truth about the island, because Ben will get them somehow. Michael coming back shows how much Ben can influence those that leave as well as those who stay behind. What would keep Michael from trying to hide from Ben for the rest of his life? Oh yeah, the fact that he seems to know everything about everyone! Jin is alive on the island, that I am sure of. He will not die in next week’s episode, that would be too obvious. I don’t want to believe it will be Claire either…at least I hope it isn’t her. The whole thing with Ben and the fake plane crash really took this show to a differnt level. All of a sudden, I feel like Dan Brown is writing for this show. Too enormous in scope for Ben to do this on his own. Can Ben (and anyone who is associated with him) be bigger than both Dharma and Widmore? I hope that when we find out the whole story, it is believable but then again, how can I say that when I can plainly accept the black smoke? I think it’s the scope that is throwing me off. Could he have crashed a whole ‘nother plane and nobody cared to look for that one?
I know this is from last week’s ep but my favorite line was when creepy-ass Ben calmly said to Juliet after showing her the body: “Take as long as you need” after he just finished screaming at her “You’re mine!” Juliet is creepy in her own way, though.
I hope this doesn’t cause anybody any harm to their brain cells.

Reply to Michael, comment 291. If that boat couldn’t make it all the way then someone else besides the freighter could have helped him make it back. I will concede that Ben could have communicated with Mike before he reached the freighter. So you’re saying Michael has been gone 30 days and only either been on the boat or freighter? The freighter would have run out of food and fuel before 30 days of sea travel could have passed. That seems too long to me. I’m guessing the freighter left port a week ago, 2 weeks max. We’ll find out next ep.

When Sun called and said “something is wrong” perhaps she wasn’t due yet.
All the lies would annly Jack, so why that one in particular.
When Abbadon asks Hurley “are they alive” perhaps he means Ben and the Others. Miles was going to lie and say Ben is dead for 3.2 Mil.
The captain didn’t outright say that Ben staged the crash. He told about it and then said “that, amoung many other reasons, is why we want to find Ben.”

Re 229 Circus Mom
You’re right, all the lies annoy Jack but I think this is why he doesn’t want to see Kate and Aaron…this was an unncessary lie…Claire’s baby was promised to a nice LA couple…they certainly could have said the baby survived and given it to the nice, two parent home. Instead, Kate kept him. I think that would make Jack not want to see Aaron with Kate, as though all was well.

The thing with “Oceanic Six” is, it’s who the characters of the show tell the media they are. For that sake there could be 20 survivors back home. We are already way above 6 (Jack, Kate, Hurley, Sayid, Sun, Aaron, Ben, Michael and Walt all make it back). My point is: O6 seems to be the lie of the characters. Not the actual number.
Comment 308, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
O6 – “lie of the characters” – true enough, but in the advertising for the show, ABC says “at the end of the episode, you will know the last of the O6.” So it’s not just the “lie of the characters.”

I don’t want to come off snobby, but why is it so hard to understand that Oceanic Six would be people that were on the Oceanic flight that crashed and then survived. It is only because the D&C have fibbed in the past and the promos have also fibbed that we don’t know if Aaron is a definate. My guess is that we will need a podcast or interview to confirm who they now since the episode didn’t confirm a list. We do know that Ben, Des, Juliet or anyone else that wasn’t on the flight would NEVER be an O6. Why would Oceanic payoff and hand out golden tickets to people who weren’t on the plane?
Comment 313, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
Was baby Aaron REALLY promised to a nice couple in LA or was that the psychic’s line to get Claire on the plane that he KNEW would crash (because he is a psychic) and Claire would then HAVE to raise him?
As far as the panda goes, do you suppose there is something hidden in the second panda (drugs possibly) and Jin was just the delivery man? He seemed pretty nervous and acted like his life depended on him getting a PANDA to new baby.
I agree with Hammer, the O6 really do have to be people who were on the plane when it crashed. Would Aaron be given a golden pass? If not, then he might not be one of the 06.
So many questions, so few answers!

Just want to say I’ve been a fan since the beginning and LOVE everyone’s posts. I have read Lost Horizon (a very s-l-o-w read) and like the idea of compare. And, like the note Sayid and Des received, I don’t trust a word the captain told them.

Why did they bother with the flashback for Jin though? it confused us but was it necessary? maybe with the time conscious travel thing Jin got trapped in the past and is reliving it? and why did jin have to get to the hospital so quickly? when someone has a baby they’re in the hospital for a couple of days- he didn’t need to get there the instant the baby was born.

I agree. I believe the promos did say the six will have been revealed by this time. Aaron, allthough in the womb, and not required to purchase a ticket, was indeed a passenger onboard 815.

I think the real question is why do the authorities let Kate raise Aaron? They know who Kate is. They know she was not pregnant.

Cicus if that was Widmore, that was a very observant catch. I will have to rewatch and look for that.
DMT Lol, I think the same thing when plainly accepting smokey.
So now it seems like they are slanting the freightor folks as either neutral or not having it in for the Losties…so that means they probably DO have it in for them. I have no clue, keep the theories flying. It’s all about the podcast now.

if jin’s date of death is 9/22/04 he obviously isn’t one of the 08. but then how do they explain sun & jin have ji leon to the rest of the world on the show? i wonder how that will work out.
hurley can’t keep a secret at all on the island, and he can’t lie. i can’t imagine how he would be able to lie everyday and keep everything about the island a secret. so i guess that makes a lot of sense on why he would be in the nut house.
how on earth are they gonna explain 324 bodies being on the plain when 8 of those people didn’t die on the plane?
never thought of that, but the blood stain in sayid & des’s new room could be from someone commiting suicide like regina . otherwise these freighter tots aren’t as nice at tator tots! (and i just call anyone on the freighter freighter tots bcuz it rhymes with tator tots, thust the last sentence there!)
circus mom (c169): the others know michael did it, sayid knew michael wasn’t acting normal. jack and him came up with a plan on how to “cross” michael. michael broke down & told jack, hurley, sawyer, and kate on the way to trade them off for walt (and the cool name of kevin johnson) that he killed them. but even if my memory is screwed up there, they’d be pissed cuz he traded jack, sawyer, and kate for his son & left. so no, the losties don’t think michael is a good guy. but you’re right, mss clue told him to release ben & get the 4 people. it was michael’s choice to kill 2 people.

Comment 326, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
:) can people please stop saying that michael and walt are part of the O6 – you’ve seen neither of them off the island; the O6 are the people who return under conditions where they are known to be survivors – even if michael had made it back to civilisation from the island i doubt he would have been seeking media attention – only jack, kate, hurly, sayid and sun can be confirmed as part of the O6 – where aaron is the possible 6th person.
Ben we’ve seen off the island in flash forwards though he wasnt on 815 so i still hope Desmond is alive in the future too since i reckon he’s lost’s best character :)
As for jin, i believe he is probably dead – Sun’s emotion seems genuine for a person who misses someone who has died, whilst Sun and Hurly’s visit to the graveyard seems unplausable to be “staged”. Jin’s date of death, however, is clearly a continuation of the O6’s “story” where they were the only survivors. I apologise if ive repeated things other people have commented on but im not up for reading all 300 or so comments just yet :)
Oh and btw Lost Chicka – i doubt theyd resent Michael for leaving – Sayid seemed quite pleased and intrigued to see him on the boat.
And reply to sector7, how do you necessarily know that the authorities let her keep aaron – my first reaction to when kate was at Aaron’s side (back from the court house), was that she had taken him for some reason or other from claire (possibly claire was one of the two who didnt make it), and in-keeping with the O6 “story”, Aaron was in fact “her” son.
Finally, just regarding the island in the future and whether there are still people there – i think that Ben somehow has the O6 on a leash, having forced them to keep up the “story” that they are the only survivors – most probably due to the fact that he wants the island to remain unknown. What backs up the idea that the island still lives in a habitable state with probable survivors still living there, is the fact that at the end of Season 3, Jack’s longing for wanting to go back to the island would seem bizarre if there did not still remain something or someone to go back to. I doubt anyone would want so much in a very selfish way (as jack appears to), to return to a place to live in solotude.

Comment 332, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
Wow, I finally read all 325 posts! All very good thoughts and worth reading. Some very observant bloggers out there! I have a few thoughts as well:
1. Agreed, Juliet should have NEVER told Jin Sun’s “secret”, but…she was desperate to save Sun. She believes that Sun WILL die unless she leaves the island SOON and the tots seem to be the best bet at the moment. HOWEVER, the outing of the secret set Sun (and Jin too really) free. It was the most connected moment since coming to the island for Sun and Jin. It brought healing, and…..closure. That’s why I believe Jin dies before leaving the island (not a fake death). They set it up for his death by having the closure scene.
2. Sun seemed to believe something was wrong, rather than that she was in labor. I have 3 kids so I KNOW how labor feels, and I knew I was in labor, not that something was wrong. Therefore, I believe that this took place VERY SOON after the “homecoming” and that she wasn’t actually due yet. She had a full term baby in half (or so) the gestation time. My theory: Once leaving the island, the baby grew REALLY FAST, just like Aaron did (who now looks like a toddler rather than an infant), in order to reconcile on/off island time. This could also explain why Sun’s doctor was away; he wasn’t expecting Sun to deliver that soon either, or he wouldn’t have been away. (And speaking of Aaron, it would also be why Kate won’t let anyone see him and have to explain the freaky growth thing).
3. When Hurley comes to see Sun, he is all dressed up, like for an event. It could be the memorial service for the Oceanic non-survivors, or for Jin, or an anniversary of the crash (not likely that, due to baby age). I agree with (was it Tim?) who thought they were going to another place after the grave site. He was likely glad no one else was coming because he feels funny around others who know the truth about what happened. Remember, it was Sawyer who said “if Hugo knows, everybody knows”.
4. Speaking of Hurley’s visit, I thought Sun hesitated a moment before agreeing with Hurley that the baby looked just like Jin. Not sure yet that the baby IS Jin’s. Hmmmmm…..
5. We have been drawn in to be sympathetic with EVERYBODY. No one is a clear cut villain at this point. We WANT to believe the tots, the captain, Juliet, Ben/Locke, when we hear their stories. We don’t know WHO to trust yet and it is frustrating. They can’t ALL be telling the truth!
And last,

Why would Sayid end up on the island that Kelvin was on(remember they met on mission in the military)?

I think the scenes with Sun going into labor and then giving birth were written to maximize the drama. TPTB probably thought it would make for a boring story if she feels normal contractions at home, goes to the hospital, gets an epidural, pushes for an hour or however long, and out comes the baby. So, they threw in a lot of trauma to make it all more suspenseful – remember Sun is the test case to prove Juliet’s theory about whether women who get pregnant on the island can survive if they leave the island. An added benefit to the difficulty Sun was having is that in her delirium she called out Jin’s name, so the writers continued the charade of having us think Jin’s story was a FF. The bit with the wedding ring I thought was a direct reference back to the season 2 episode where she lost her wedding ring – she probably promised herself she would never take it off again no matter what.

I didn’t see it that way at all. Sun said noone else was coming, Hurley said Good, but he said it in a way that didn’t convey happiness or relief. It was more of like, “Oh that’s OK, you and I will have a good time ourselves”, like he didn’t want Sun to be sad that noone else was there.

RGS #256 and sector7 #267:
First let me say I agree that Sun does believe Jin is dead. I think Jin is dead myself, but I will not be shocked if he turns out to be alive.
So when I mentioned her not trying to find Jin/the island due to someone having threatened her not to do so, it was more of a hypothetical situation. But part of me was thinking that her father was on the side of those warning her not to look for Jin/the islang. So in that case she couldn’t invoke her father’s name or ask him for help, because she’d be crossing him. Again, I don’t think this is what’s happening.
sector7 – your comment about Jack being obsessed with saving people…again, I agree, but in all the FF’s we’ve seen, at first he has no interest in going back. Eventually the guilt (presumably) gets to him, and we saw the result in the S3 finale. Yes, Sun seems like the type of person who would not just give up hope of ever seeing Jin again, but, like with Jack, maybe it takes her a while for her to get to the point where she couldn’t bear the thought of not seeing Jin. But in this FF, she hasn’t gotten to that point yet.

Well, I’m going to discuss some points from the book Lost Horizon and how they relate to LOST the show. BOOK SPOILER for those who want to read it beware…DO NOT READ this if you want the book to have suspence. And I politely disagree that the book is a slow read. It’s really short and the comparisons to show made it very interesting.
1) The four people who were hi-jacked and taken to Shangri-La were selected. They did not have people who needed them back home (wives, children, for example).
2) One in particular is a Man of Faith and another a man of Science, another a fugitive. Sound familar (Locke, Jack and Kate). The other is female missionary.
3) The man of Faith is asked to take over the job as head lama (The Lama is like the grand puba or something). The head lama is centuries old but eventually dies. I think this is Locke being asked to take over for Jacob’s position (reference…”Help me.”) The Man of Faith name is Conway. Conway has no problems with the oddities of this place they have landed in and accepts things easily like Locke does.
There is also a character that acts as a go between the Head Lama and Conway that reminds me a little of Ben.
4) The Man of Science talks the Man of Faith (Conway) out of staying in Shangri-La. Conway spends the rest of his life trying to get back unsuccessfully.
5) A woman who lived in Shangri-La for several decades (she’d be really old/dead if she had been in a normal place) as an 18 year old beauty. She leaves Shangri-La and ages quickly to the age she should be/would be and dies.
6) Shangri-La is a remote mountain community in Tibet. Only people who straggle in find it (except for the plane). This reminds me of the hot air balloon guy and the parashuter and the French Lady (how did she get there?) that make it to the island.
Shangri-La NEEDS new people to come in because babies (it appears) are not born there. They need to recruit people to keep it going. Could this be why the island needed the plane to crash on the Lost Island. Babies can’t be born there so they need new people keep the island magic going. (Just a theory).
There is probably more but I need to get to bed.

Ok, just made it through them all and I don’t know if I was watching the same show or not, but I totally didn’t think that Jin’s story was a FB. What if…Sun doesn’t know that Jin got off the island…what if she really did think that she left him behind and then it makes sense that her and Hurley (and the rest of the O6ers) have to keep up the story that he’s dead…BUT! What if Jin is working for Widmore/Paik now kind of like Sayid is working for Ben? What if Widmore discovers that Jin is on the island and decides (knowing his past working for Mr. Paik) that he would make a good assassin/tough guy/whatever he used to be. He would fake his death and also, when I saw the old phone he was using, it made me think of Elsa and how she said her boss “didn’t like new technology” or something like that. Maybe that’s how the show ends…with a showdown of assassins between Sayid and Jin ;)

interesting… when sun went to the hospital, she kept asking to “call jin, her husband.” at that point she was not drugged or in a state of shock. just a state of panic. what if jin really is alive and on the island? what if only 8 people could leave the island becuase that’s all the helicopter could manage to carry? of course jin would stay behind to let sun (and unborn baby) get off the island. huge sacrifice, but he would do it because he knows if jin doesn’t get off the island, she and the baby will both die.
was interesting that the tombstone had a death date of the plane crash. also, in korean tombstones, they always list immediate family members of the deceased.
sun never asks, “why did you have to die?” all she says is how much she misses him.
jin is alive and stuck on the island.

OK, so Michael and Walt leave the island. They are intercepted by the others via submarine or some other sea worthy vehicle. Or they make it to land where one of Ben operatives intercept them. They explain to him that Widmore is coming and he’s sending a freighter. He’s given his assumed identity because they know the roster of the plane. They let him know that they’ll have to stop in specific ports in order to get refueled and so on. As we saw on the boat, Michael/Kevin is nothing but a lowly deck hand. This is part of his undercover work. The freightor tots will take him on because they can always use an extra golfer.
Now, the obvious question is, why would he do this. And the answer is that they have Walt. They either took him during the “interception” on the water or they took him when Michael and Walt reached land.

I would then put Kate’s trial sometine in early 08. A lawyer friend said it is not unheard of for a trial to be delayed especially with all the special circumstances involved.
Sun giving birth in May or June would mean rescue would occure in January to early May. My Guess, late March. Three seasons, three months. No other reason.

To add to the discussion of Desmond’s being “set up” :
Notice that when Desmond seems flabbergasted at the owner of the ship “This is Charles Widmore’s ship?!?” Captain Gault just responds nonchalantly, “That’s right. You do know him.”
Desmond wasn’t on 815, so his name would not have been on the manifest, yet no one is shocked or surprised to see him. As if they knew he shipwrecked there 3-4 years ago and knew he would be there when they reached the island. The captain even addresses him as Mr. Hume as if he knows him. I thought this was all very, very strange.

Lins 315 I haven’t had a chance to rewatch the episode, but I agree with you that the owner said “in the year of the dragon” not it IS the year of the dragon. However, it is still a FlashBACK because Jin said he had only been married 2 months. They are not going to have him remarry, and I’m fairly certain that he is not a Ben hired assassin.
Sun’s dad said that Jin had to work for him for 6 months, and for some reason I think that they married within a year of the airline flight. That would be why he was so hurried to get the Panda to the hospital. It’s all about impressions! He gets a Panda from China delivered to the Ambassador within hours of delivering a baby boy…how’s that for service and showing desire to impress and do business.
The way they are portraying Jin, it doesn’t seem like he could put up with performing nefarious actions for years.

Also with regard to Sun’s spot, she may have been in an expensive apartment, I’m sure with the population density in Korea (assuming Seoul, it’s one of the most populated cities in the World) so it may be more expensive than what one would think.

Actually I agree with a lot of what you say, IF Michael made it back to civilization. I think however, he got an new identity from Ben, maybe the info and papers were already on the little boat. He can’t return anywhere as Michael because folks would be like, “Mike, I thought you were on the plane?” He probably can’t even go home because too many questions would get asked.

Completely different topic, just for fun I hope.
If Arron was known to be Claire’s baby and Claire doesn’t get off the island but Arron does, would he get the settlement from Oceanic because his mother died and he was “on the plane”?
Contrast that with him being thought to be Kate’s son. Presumably he doesn’t get any additional settlement money because his mom got it.
Does this sound correct and isn’t Kate’s deception costing Arron big bucks?

My interpretation of Jin’s working relationship with Paik, is that, he’s a right hand man. He’s entrusted to do things more than just being a gopher since he is married to his daughter. So deilvering a stuffed animal to an ambassador is not outside the scope of his duties, IMHO. Plus he’d probably want Jin to delivery bribe money and this would help establish the relationship with the ambassador.

I think Aaron is part of the O6. I wonder what happens that makes Claire not one of the O6. Desmond told Charlie that he had a vision of Claire and Aaron getting into a helicopter, so we know that Claire is going to be attempting to leave. Also, I think Jin may be alive on the island and Sun and the rest of them are covering it up. Those that say Sun wouldn’t visit the grave if she didn’t think he was really dead might want to consider something else. Sun might have been visiting the memorial as a front in case someone was watching her, like that guy who visited Hurley in the Mental Hospital. If she didn’t visit the memorial, then whomever is watching them might start to wonder if Jin and the rest of them are really alive. They would start to wonder why a grieving widow wouldn’t visit her husband’s grave.So I think she had to go to keep up the fasade. I also agree with the comments made that Sun never mentions that he’s dead, just that she misses him.

Just finished reading ALL these posts, and hopefully I didn’t miss the one thing I thought of already being discussed! Two things actually.
#1: regarding the panda; the second panda WAS in the background at the register area when Jin was buying the first one. How about if someone (who knows who?) knew that Whidmore (or whoever stole the panda in the cab) was going to strike, and made sure the second panda (which was really THE important panda) was on hold just for Jin to go in and buy a second time around.
#2: I think it was the same hospital Jin and Sun were at; during the last FB/FF at the hosp, Jin talks to a nurse on his way out, and you get a semi-good view of her badge, with a blue-ish band at the top. Then the scene cuts to Sun taking her ring out of a plastic bag with “Choodong Hospital” at the top printed on a blue-ish background.
OK – I now I said two things, but there are really three
#3: Maybe a hasty escape from the island had to be done with only a few (6?) people at a time; then the helicopter, or whatever means of transport, was not able to make it back to get the other people. They had all originally planned on getting off, but chose the first to leave randomly. Claire would have wanted Aaron to go first, and possibly sacrificed her spot for Kate for some reason. Therefore Kate feels compelled to care for and protect Aaron in the real world. So they are all presumed “dead” by the general public. Would be great if the series ended with somehow reuniting those left with the 6, once a way to rescue them is discovered.

I don’t think there is any way we can judge a time of death by how Sun greives.
Not saying he is dead also dosn’t mean he is alive. Most people would say “I miss you” not “Sorry you’re dead.”
If the Helo was going to make several trips Sun would have waited to go over with Jin and Clair would have kept Aaron with her, so, Jin and Claire are dead. Others may still be alive on the island but not them.
Someone said that if Juliette was off island she would have been at Ji’s birth. Sun may not have wanted her there and she didn’t know when it would happen.

Does this mean that Jin is dead or is he still on the Island awaiting the same “rescue” that Sun enjoyed?
If I had to guess, I’d say that Jin is dead. I suppose it makes sense that he is still stuck on the Island, but Hurley’s line about “do you want to go see him?” leads me to believe that he is in fact buried at the tombstone. This is my guess as to what happened. Jin was one of the two 815 passengers to survive the crash but die before rescue, which would jive with the testimony Jack gave on the stand during Kate’s trial. Between the time of the crash and his death, Jin impregnated Sun, but died some time thereafter. After his death, Sun is unwilling to leave the Island without his body and therefore is brought along with the other members of the Oceanic 6. Jin is buried under the tombstone erected for the couple after the fabricated 815 wreckage was found and the families sought closure by holding funerals despite not having the body. That would explain the 9-22-2004 date on the headstone and it would also close the holes in Sun’s story about who was the child’s father and why she was having a child in the 6 to 9 month window after being rescued from the Island. I don’t know whether I believe this myself, but it’s an explanation that fits in with some of the flash forwards we have already been given. The strikes against the “Jin is dead” theory are the date on the tombstone (why wouldn’t Sun have changed it?) and the fact that killing off 815 survivors makes it more difficult for the audience to buy into Jack’s obsession with returning to the Island, my argument from a few weeks ago. Are we really going to care if Mr. Go-Gurt is the one Jack is returning to save?

Comment 413, posted 2 years ago - Quote and reply
Many married couples do put both names on a tombstone when one spouse dies. They know they eventually will be buried together, so they buy the larger tombstone in the beginning, engrave it with the name and birthdate and the rest is filled in when the other spouse dies. This is actually the norm for most married couples. The one exception might be when a spouse dies early in life. Then there is the assumption that the remaining spouse will marry again, and be buried with a second spouse. Sun probably opted to go with the first option.

I’d have to watch it again, but didn’t it almost seem for a moment like the hospital personnel were about to practically rob Sun, knock her out, and take the baby? How about the whipering nurses, “Oceanic 6?” as they were whisking Sun to the delivery room? Sun didn’t seem delerious at all to me. She thought Jin was coming. She kept insisting the staff call him. They were determined to take her wedding ring, and she was determined to keep it on. Note she did not want her family called!
Considering we were shown a Sun FF and a Jin FB, is Sun covering up a faked Jin death to Hurley? Is Jin in hiding/faked death to be separated from Paik? I still think she would have been way, way more distraught at the gravesite if it were real. Yeah, she showed grief, but not a serious, fresh, gut-wrenching grief. And to be primping and putting on lipstick to go to the gravesite? Maybe, I guess, but….Yeah, there was men’s stuff in the medicine cabinet. It had to have been Jin’s! Are the 06ers’s going to be covering up lies to each other post-rescue?
Weird, but didn’t it also seem a potential romantic thing for just a flickering second when Sun opened the door to Hurley? She looked nervous getting ready and when the doorbell rang. When she told him no one else was coming, he said, “Good,” almost like he wanted to be alone with her.
I’m still wondering about the blood on the boat wall and how the faked crash was set up by Ben? Wow! I don’t think Michael is an ‘06. I’m thinking he has permanently changed his identity. Hope good ‘ol Sayid gets lots of info out of him next episode! Heh…
I still think the final ‘06 are Jack, Kate, Hurley, Sun, Sayid, and Sawyer. I’m thinking Sawyer won’t want to be permanently separated from Kate and change his mind last minute. The dead two will be Jin and Claire. Jin’s fake, Claire’s real. Ben’s gonna whisk Juliet away or keep her against her will.

i tink that jin is dead they said he died the day of the plane crash to protect kates story the six are kate hugo sayid erin jack and sun erin was on the plane in kates belly. ji yeon is created on the island and so that means claire and jin are the 8. i think the man on the boat is the captain b/c he sure knows a lot about ben and he is in control, michael may have lost his memory and became kevin

Love it Circus. I agree with Sun & Jin being dead. Jin could have sent Sun first, I could see that as a possibility, if he is even alive by that point. No way Claire leaves w/o her Aaron or vice versa.
Sun is living in Korea, Juliette wants desperately to get back (presumably to see/care for her sister). Yes she is invested in Sun’s pregnancy somewhat, but enough to say, “you know what, I’m going to live in Korea with you until this child is born, my sister can wait.” Not likely. Plus didn’t Sun say she didn’t trust Juliette? (Still haven’t had a chance to rewatch the episode yet).
I thought the Korean in the bathroom with Jin told him NOT to run off, or there would be consequences. Something to that effect. Sun’s father (the man Jin worked for) would not threaten to kill him for no reason.
Folks don’t want Jin dead huh. If the O6 includes Aaron, and I now think it does, I feel like an ass for not realizing it when it was revealed. Someone even posted on here about how they wouldn’t say, “The O6 and a child, were recovered…” I need to put myself on punishment from the forum for that slip up.

Why do you think we are 6 months into “real time” post island? Because Sun had the baby? Again, as I said earlier, I truly believe that Sun had the baby unexpectedly “early” (the doctor was not expecting it, he was on vacation; she didn’t expect it, she thought something was wrong, etc.). D&C told us to “watch for growth issues”. I believe that the baby grew very fast off island (to catch up to real time) and was born a full-term premmie.

I think you are right. Sun wsa NOT expecting to deliver yet. She acted like it was an emergency and like she thought she might lose the baby. Instead, out came a full-term baby!
Never having had a child myself, don’t doctor’s tell their pregnant patients that they may be out-of-town and have them meet their partners at least once before the due date arrives? I have known people who this scenerio has happened to but I don’t know if it is the norm.

Comment #158: I believe Mike is def. in the coffin because that’s why Jack was so distraught. He believed Mike could eventually recall how to get back to the island, so he wouldn’t have to keep continuing to do his “hope to crash by fate” trips. It was in a black neighborhood, no one was at the funeral because it was an assumed identity, and hence no one knew who he was.
I need a screencap of that suicide story again, because I think folks made out a John on it, and thought John Locke, but it could actually have been Johnson.
I think you are right-on. I also think that Walt gets off the island w/ Kevin (also under an assumed name) and after his father’s death, maybe he is taken care of by his grandmother, until he is murdered somehow (fast fwd to Miles appearing w/ the dust-buster to conjure up the dead) …

Anyway, why does Hurley need to be at the gravesite to put up the front that Jin is dead? Why can’t she go by herself. If they are nervous about people watching them, they sure didn’t seem to be acting like it. Is she going to put the child in harm’s way, knowing that they are being followed? Hurley seems like he’d need the plan to be laid out to him again too, like right before they leave. “Ok, we’re going to go the grave, stay for x minutes, and pretend to grieve right?” Something like that.

****************************
Yes, she delivered a full term baby, but my point is that she wasn’t really at a 9 months gestation. Juliet said she had to leave the island before the mid point (approx 4 1/2 months then). I have no idea what seasons look like in Korea so I wouldn’t venture a guess as to what month it looked like it was when Hurley came to visit, but I believe it was very soon after leaving the island. After she got off the island, the baby grew super fast to catch up to off-island time. I further believe this happened to Aaron also. They caught up to real-time, thus Aaron was an infant when taken off island, and grew quickly to toddler size to catch up for the time difference. Therefore, the baby was born both full term, AND premie if you understand my point. Damon and Carlton said to watch for “growth issues” and I think this is what they meant. I’m probably not explaining very well what I am thinking but if I turn out to be right, remember that you heard it here first folks!

I actually calculate the expected date of delivery to be in July…If Sun conceived on the island (Jin) and was about 3 1/2 weeks before her second trimester…she would be due in July (Sun told Daniel she was “about 8 weeks” when she saw him on the beach). And yes, no such thing as a preemie and a full-term…
Most pregos will say…I’m pregnant and it’s too soon to have the baby….not “something is wrong.” That implies a full-term birth that scared Sun (and baby was obviously full-term…pretty good job with that baby, looked very newborn like…).
I agree that it is odd that the Doc was out of town…the fertility specialist….(who told her she couldn’t get pregnant..)…she looked shocked (usually doc’s do tell people when they won’t be around, especially that late in the pregnancy…Something was up with that Korean guy in the hallway (the one she thought looked like Jin…). Was he an Abbadon spy…hearing her call out for Jin..and now wondering if people are still alive on the island?
Next week (in the previews) we see scenes of a big fight..what if they pretend they killed Ben and the others (to get paid by Widmore)…captain dies, Miles is happy with his money from Ben, Daniel doesn’t care because he time travels and Charlotte wants to stay and explore the island…Miles goes back, with Frank, to the freighter, taking a few others. They tell the captain “mission accomplished.” They all get paid BUT Abbadon doesn’t believe it and continues to watch the oceanic 6 to see if they slip up…that’s why the Korean guy is seen walking by, that’s why Sun missed Jin (who is on the island) and that’s why Jack wants to go back…there! Done!

I also think that Jin is dead and was part of the O8. But it is plausible that Jin could still be alive and chooses to stay on the island in order to be safe from Paik.
When Jin asked Jack for the cereal, Jack’s reaction looked a bit cocky. And annoyed when he learned that Sawyer helped Jin out a little as well.

I haven’t read all the posts yet. Gone for the weekend.

I read this an another blog so I can’t take credit for it. Thought it was very interesting though. I will be spending the rest of my day trying to catch up on my reading. Here it is
“To quote recipezaar.com -
“Lima beans should not be eaten raw. They contain linamarin, which releases a cyanide compound when the seed is opened; however, cooking deactivates this compound.”
Googling this further, it seems that some varieties contain more cyanide than others.
What happens when you’ve taken cyanide? emedicinehealth.com says: “General weakness, confusion, bizarre behavior, excessive sleepiness, coma, shortness of breath, headache, dizziness, and seizures all can be seen with cyanide poisoning.”
Confusion like reading a book upside down? Maybe jumping off a ship counts as bizarre behaviour?

Ppl … dont you think that the fake victims that Ben put in the wreckage could have come from the mass grave? The grave that was dug to bury the tens of people Ben killed with the gas leak somewhere in the previous seasons? Furthermore, when Ben shot Locke near the mass grave, I remember that it was dug as if someone had removed some of the bodies. What do you think? I mean a grave is filled to above ground level whereas the mass grave that Locke fell into was more of a trench and you could see some corpses too.

I liked the article; it does seem to apply to our island. Makes some sense anyway. Thanks.

Did they recover the bodies from the “fake crash”? I think if they did, someone somewhere is going to say “hey wait, this isn’t so and so”. Then they check DNA. So either they never recover any bodies (but DID recover the black box???) or else they REALLY ARE THE LOSTIES. Then, either they are the real bodies and the ones on the island are in some kind of consciousness/body travelling/transporting, or they are duplicates (like the #15 rabbit). I know, pretty far out there, but not necessarily untrue for LOST, and not beyond what Ben might be capable of.

I think the story was that they couldn’t recover the bodies because of the location. Anyone know for sure?

..not many mysteries in this episode .cant imagine what could account for five hundred posts! all seemed straight forward .a few questions answered.
THE Bodies on the plane in the sea are Gassed dharma members. some in the pit ,some in the plane.they d be no need to post mortum the underwater bodies by the authorities cos all passengers died. so the issue of identification would not arise.It would be classed as a mass grave,i think that only the black box would be recovered, which could have been recovered from the island. By the way ,used the control +f thingy. couldnt find any mention of this subject.

I think we are too quick to assume that Ben is the one behind the fake wreckage. I think that note ( that look’s like it was written by a kid) was as not just for Desmond and Sayid, but also for us as the viewer to “not trust the captain” and anything he had to say. He was really to eager to reveal things.
Also, I know he might be able to, but does Walt really know morse code?

Okay, sure, Ben gets the bodies from the mass grave. Now, where’d he get the plane, and how’d he get it in the ocean after he filled it with the bodies?

the cat is charlie AND boone, the box is the island and the observer is the people off the island. ben doesnt want the box to open.remember in his flashback when he first ran into the native to the island the guy asked him if his mom died on the island the box opened when darma came the box opened when the plane crashed. and remember from the site it says something about the toxic in the box, well the two people from the boat stoped the gas in the room to stop ben using it
just a thought

why would michael sabotage the ship’s telecommunications,etc.? that would only be for ben, not to save the survivors. I actually think i trust the captain more than michael. the captain’s story makes more sense than michael’s.

Remember Sun’s doctor, how nervous he was when he lied and told Sun that SHE was sterile, so as to not upset Jin (who worked for Mr. Paik and might be volatile)? I don’t believe this doctor would ever go to a conference and be away if he was expecting the daughter of Mr. Paik to deliver soon.
was it not jin who was sterile in the end?
And didnt the delivery room doctor or the hopital entrance nurse call sun by her maiden name? Or have i taken too many lima beans??

i’m not sure what was harder to understand….the stupid cat THEORY or circus dorks’ reply. Dude, mix in some punctuations.
I guess the Garfield theory is a better theory than the time loop theory from last week. IMO it semms to be more of what the show is after. While the time loop thoery, was really well thought out, but consisted of way too much time travel. I don’t think they wanted Mcfly, Doc Brown, and Bif to run into Desmond on his way to saving the world

i am havin a problem accessing any posts prior to this one ,so im not able to read any replies!
here s my thoughts on the plot so far ,just my opinion .
widmore and ben planned the faking of the crash
,widmore doesnt know where the island is exactly .
widmore offers a reward for finding and catching ben because they ve had a dispute over something.3million.
. he also funds the freighter,whose captains prime objective is to find the island or the plane.
,
charlotte and dans objective is to disarm the gas machine so ben cant use it in the PASTto gas the dhama so he cant provide the bodies for the fake crash
.miles says to ben he wont turn him over to widmore if he gives him 3.2 m making .2 m on the deal.
If you had access to the future perhaps you would go back and change things to your advantage .
i think some losties lives are working their way back from the future to the present day and some are working their way forwards
. they have all met in the middle[the island]i know its confusing . in my mind its all clear but i cant get written down properly .does any one else feel this way ,like the answers are right in front of you ?but you just cant put your finger on it.
i know this post sounds crazy ,but ya got to be crazt to be this involved in a tv program eh?

The bodies on the “fake plane” couldn’t be the gassed Dharma people. They would be way too decomposed (like the people in the pit) and the people on the plane footage seen during Franks “FF/FB” were bloated but not decomposed, ie not there very long yet. Agreed that no post mortum/cause of death would be necessary under the circumstances, but everyone would want to know why the plane crashed and all the people died. Yes, the site could be designated as a mass grave with a “do not disturb” sign hung on it, but my original post wondering about the black box (and wanting to hear it) was because I want to know what story it would tell. Either it is the real black box and would tell what happened to the plane (and the losties) or it is the lie-story and wouldn’t that be interesting to hear what the “world” is being told?

If there is anything to the Schrodingers Cat theory than it could tie in to Eco’s death in a way. He resolved the main issue in his life, wether he was good or bad. When he realized that he hadn’t done anything wrong he in effect “looked at himself” and the smoke monster killed him.
Someone posted that they beleive that Jin also dies because he resolved a major issue in his life. Boone died when he resolved his issue with Shannon. Each of these deaths was after the charactor took a long look at themselves.
The theory states that the cat is both alive and dead until the observer looks at it.

Anyway, can someone explain me what the “8″ means? As far as I know there are only the Oceanic six. Did it now become 8? thanks.I think Aaron is an O6 now, because I thought we were supposed to know all of the O6 at the end of this episode? If Jin’s tombstone says 9/22, he CAN’T be an O6. Thus Sun is the only one that was revealed in this episode.
Sun’s FF is taking place in a relatively short time frame from when they get off the island, as she is having the child. IMO Hurley had not gone into the mental institution yet. I think each FF is going in reverse chronological order from the Jack meltdown.
Yes, Sun was the only one revealed, which means that Aaron is an O6′r.. Also, the S3 finale with Jack and Kate was the LAST of the flash forwards.. Everything is working back from that point.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I agree with you on the point of season 3 being the last of the FF. But I’m not sure about the other FF working backwords. Have they ever said that? They certainly did not do that with the FB, why would they do that with the FF?
I didn’t realize in Hurley’s FF they stated exactly how long he had been home for. If it was a year, why would it take charlie so long to appear to him?

I couldn’t agree with you more. Both people, Minkowski and Regina, involved with talking to people on the island, have died. Maybe the next person, or even Regina, who was supposed to contact the tots on the island next, said “screw this” and destroyed the comms.

Just to be clear, Circus Mom introduced this theory to this blog. So she gets credit for any accuracy it may have. I am intrigued by it because I can interject the whisperers to it and as you all know, I’m hung up on those volume deficient folks.

I think that it would apply better to an outside observer. I don’t think that Eko is alive and dead until he “observes” himself. I think that the Eko, Boone, Jin(if he’s dead) deaths are more about redemption. I think the theory would more apply to the island being the box and the “alive and dead” folks(whisperers) are waiting to be observed to be ONLY dead.

Maybe Desmond, Sayid, Jack, Kate, Hurley, Sun, Jin, Claire and Aaron are on the freighter when Penny’s boat shows up. A fight ensues and they all get a chance to get away on Penny’s boat. Claire and Jin are victims of the fight and their bodies are taken with the 06ers to be buried. Desmond leaves with Penny(He’s not mentioned yet in the FF as an 06er because he wasn’t on a manifest) and goes into hiding. When Ben asks Sayid if he wants ‘them’ to get away with what they did, he’s refering to Jin and Claire dying in the fight. Jack is distraught because they didn’t have a chance to rescue everyone else still on the island. But if everyone else is still alive on the island, why can’t Sayid get Ben to rescue them, since Ben was previously known to go back and forth from the island to the real world? This show is sooo intense!!:)

How many did the captain say were in the crash? 314 bodies of 316?
There were 324 on the original flight…

I like the concept – now add Ben, Sawyer, Michael, Walt, Juliet and Locke to “on the freighter” and see what theory flows. Seriously… account for that scenario.
Des, Ben, Juliet = 3 not on OA815.
Sayid, Jack, Hurley, Kate & Sun = 5 on OA815 and confirmed OA sixer.
Jin, Locke, Walt, Michael, Aaron, Sawyer = On OA815 and not confirmed as OA6 or OA8. These 6 should fill the ranks of the;
1 x living/remaining OA sixer,
2 x dead/yet unidentified OA eight,
? x seen in FF, or off-island
Ben, Michael, Aaron = off-island & not OA6/8.
Walt = assumed off-island as he left w/ dad.
Jin = potential OA8 deadie.
Claire = probable OA8 deadie, as the ‘vision’ saw her leaving in a helo, yet Kate has Aaron.

ACK!
I just found out that there is no Enhanced episode at 8pm on Thursday.
Then I had hope that the episodes they show during the “break” will be enhanced, but the episode on the 27th is a repeat of the first episode of the season (according to tvguide online), but it does not mention enhanced.

Hammer, interesting discussion about this mysterious article. I can’t seem to get on the site!!? What is the gist or basic idea of it. How can they write this show?! And how can they possibly answer everything and tie it all together. There are mythological, biblical, historical, references and innuendoes everywhere even with the names themselves!.. I was thinking about that watching “The Other Woman” GOODwin StanHOPE….u know? Such a TRIP! I become more MEGALOST every minute.

I’ve tried to post this before but had no luck from home. ( So now trying this at school) I don’t think anyone has proposed that the plane is not a fake, not expensively planted, but is the result of Desmond not pushing the button when the flight went over the island. At that moment the plane becomes two planes ( the electomagnetic radiation at work, like the two rabbits in the Dharma training film). One plane crashes on the island, the other ( complete with duplicates of all the people on board) is transported to the abyss. Why else would be shown the polar bear transported to the desert and the duplication of the rabbit? And Minkowski’s name ( the real Minkowski worked out the math for time as a fourth dimension). I think all these are clues to the plane.
On Jin being alive or dead. Could he not also be time traveling, like Desmond? His body is on the island, his consciousness is back in Korea.

Okay okay… the O6
Jack
Kate
Hurley
Sayid
Michael
Walt
We already know that Walt and Michael have left the island (may even be back with the freighter) however, since they left the island… the would be part of the O6
from this new show we know that Sun is one of the six, but everyone seems to for that who the six person is…………..it’s Aaron, the baby

Liesa, comment 533: One hole in that theory is that the helicopter pilot Frank Lapidus saw the wreckage on TV and said that was not the pilot from OA815, so we are led to believe the dead bodies of the alternate 815 are staged/fake.
