Secret ‘Spoilerish’ Map on Back of Lost Jigsaw Puzzles

Possible Spoilers

Last month, we first wrote about the Lost Jigsaw Puzzles here. There is a “Spoiler Warning” on the box that suggests it may have something which gives insight for future episodes, but I didn’t know if this was just a gimmick, so had forgotten about it.

Recently, someone by the name of P0pnfresh2002 emailed me with an interesting tip: there are glow-in-the-dark notations that can only be seen when the completed puzzle is carefully turned over; they can’t be seen under regular light. It appears that all four puzzles, when pieced together, form parts of the map seen in “Lockdown” on the blast door that comes down on Locke’s legs (the one Radzinsky and Kelvin Inman painted)… except there are new numbers and notes on it that we haven’t seen before because the door didn’t come all the way down. This is what P0pnfresh wrote it says on Pattern #1 (”The Hatch”) verbatum:

c12/1+3 c14/8 c21/9 c6/1 c2/5 c7/37 c6/1 c2/5

Final destination in case of code 42?
Hub of DIGH road system or other major route of overland travel

*(I couldn’t tell if some numbers were 1s or 2s and if that was 70, it could be the handwriting or it could be that the glow in the dark was messed up.)


Just a quick note on availability, as we mentioned before, they can be found at Barnes and Nobel stores, and someone else is telling me, sometimes Toys ‘R Us (incl B&N online, but checked Amazon, nothing). I also saw them at TDC Games and Time & Space Games. I checked online, and just so happens T&SG has a coupon code for free shipping this week (until 9/12) for purchases over $25–code is FREESHIPPING (I am not associated with them or get anything for trying to sell these games, just thought I’d mention this for people interested, because I used the code myself to save $$).

  1. Wow thats pretty cool its good to learn something more about the arrow station.

    did you get any pics?

  2. Damien: P0p says he is having problems taking pictures because it can only be seen in the dark (and flash will ruin it). I’m going to try and get Puzzle #3 and try my hand at photographing it under a night setting, but with blacklights, and adjusting the color values with photoshop.

  3. With the whole ‘road system’ thingy; does that imply that the car we saw driving in background behind Ana-Lucia and Goodwin was NOT a mistake? Or that they’re covering the mistake up? It would make sense that the car would be there if there was a road system, and Ana-Lucia and Goodwin were quite near the Arrow Station at the time…

  4. ok. Again, nothing to do with the article but I was checking the Lost Connections on the DVD extras from season 2. Anyone who has checked it out has probably found the screen with static and a person moving their hand over the screen. What I found was that only Jack, Jack’s father and Claire have a connection with this screen. Could it be true that Claire is Jack’s stepsister. The screen seems to have a message in it but I can’t make it out. It sounds like the person in it says “It’s in the safe.” Thoughts?

  5. Maybe Cecilia or Andrea should move Matthew & my posts to another thread…
    But yeah, I agree about Jack’s Dad. I noticed 2 things near the end of S2. When Jack’s dad stopped at that house to yell at the lady at the door…
    1) I thought it was CLAIRE who answered the door. The lady looked a lot like her from a distance.
    2) He was yelling something like ‘Let me see my girl!’ or something like that. (Faulty memory, sorry) I thought he must have fathered a child after he left his wife.
    However Claire is a bit old to be Jack’s half-sister. So maybe a step-sister is a better answer. Although I don’t think he would be that upset if it was not his actual daughter.

    My wife thought it was Jack’s ex-wife who answered the door. Now THAT would be a big twist!

  6. Mole, I think it’s alright, we’re pretty laid back about off-topic-ism in the off-season. Just FYI, I am getting the S2 DVDs & Bonus Features in the next day or two in the mail, and after I’ve seen all of them, will probably post a review of some of the Easter Eggs & extras.

  7. Mole,

    I have to check my memory too, but I thought that it was neither Claire or Jack’s ex. I thought that it was Claire’s mother (most likely a mistress of Jack’s dad) and Claire was inside holding a crying baby (most likley Aaron)? I thought he as demanding to see Claire.

  8. no wouldn’t have been aaron. he wasn’t born yet

  9. Ooooo…good point, blow up that whole theory…

  10. It could be that Lindsey (the lady he was yelling at) and he had a child that he was demanding to see. That child doesn’t have to be Claire. Claire could still be Lindsey’s daughter from a previous marriage/relationship. So the ’step-sister’ idea is closer to the mark chronologicaly, but maybe not accurate if Jack’s dad (Christian?) never actually married Lindsey.

    Things to note:
    1) Jack had Ana-Lucia w/ him on that trip, so it wasn’t his first trip there. He met Ana-Lucia at the airport and it seemed like he was familiar w/ Ana already. Maybe he had been going back-and-forth to Oz on a regular basis? If it has been ‘for years’, then Claire -could- still be an actual half-sister.
    2) We never found out Lindsey’s last name.
    3) We never found out Claire’s mother’s first name (that I know of).

  11. I’m just not keen on the step sister thing because Jack would most likely know that Claire was his step sister. Unless of course Jack’s dad never told Jack he married another woman? I still think she is his half sister he never knew about…but who was the crying baby at the house. I really need to get S2 DVDs because in my head one woman opened the door and there was a second adult holding a crying baby when he was yelling. Can someone tell me if I’m off base?

  12. Lostpedia has the jigsaw puzzles decoded! See the article.

  13. I KNOW WHAT THE NOUMBERS MEAN! IF YOU FIGURE IT ALL OUT, AND MAKE A SENTANCE OUT OF THE WORDS IT STANDS FOR: I AM GONE BUT I WILL BE BACK! tHEN I DID MORE AND I GOT RE WHICH IS RHENIUM! FOR THE HATCH! THEN THE NUMBERS I LOOKED UP AND THE ALL HAD TO DO WITH THE HATCH!

  14. […]gaurav sabnis has a few suggestions on the indian economy […]
