What I was saying though, was that there are two different pictures, that look VERY similar. The only difference is the shirt Penny is wearing. In one it’s white, in the other it’s black. They are two different pictures.

I thought that the producers released info about continuity. Didn’t they change the photo in the rerun so that the actress that plays Pen now (wearing black) is in the “correct” photo and the the other photo with the other actress (wearing white)”never happened”.

I thought we are being lead to believe that the reason there are several photos is because of the “time travel”.

I buy that too. So, if Sayid had it was a lightning fence, Mikhail would have rcvd and electrical bolt/jolt. What if he had said it was a “Tickle Me Elmo” fence? What… death by Muppet? [;^)~ I am be facetious… you made a very valid observation that we all missed.

I’m not ready to buy this one yet. If all you have to do on the island is imagine something, then it appears, why wouldn’t Mikhail imagine a way out of his situation? I think Ben wants Locke to think that’s how it works. He specifically had one of his lacky’s “go get TMFT”, Locke didn’t REALLY summons him with imagination.

This is off topic, but in the flashback when Penny receives a call from those two Portugese men stationed in the arctic, did anyone notice the picture she had of her and Desmond on the nightstand? Desmond had that same picture with him in the hatch, and I doubt copies were made. We were misled to believe she received the call from those Portugese guys right after the hatch imploded, but that call must have happened way before that (since she had the picture of her and Des). In a future episode, I bet we will see Des in bed next to her in that same flashback when she gets the call. It certainly wouldn’t make sense for her to have that picture by her bed after Des became lost and she got married? Perhaps she received that call after the first “incident” in the hatch.

There are two different pictures. When Desmond goes back in time, or whatever was happening, another picture was taken. This is the one that Penny has and Desmond has the original one from before he went back in time, or vice versa.

Perhaps Sayid’s belief that the perimeter was some sort of sonic fence, which undoubtedly influenced Kate, Locke, and Russeau to believe it could be a sonic fence, manifested itself to reality. Mikhail’s expression certainly did change the minute Sayid said that, perhaps because he knew the fence had just become activated.

I buy that.

I have a theory regarding the ‘watchers’..

I’m guessing that ‘Cindy and the kids’ were fed some kind of BS regarding why only they could be swept away to this better life (among The Others in their island suburbia). Much like Claire was, when she was abducted, told that they only had enough vaccine for her Baby – The Others probably also told their tail-sectional captives about ‘the sickness’ and explained that they could only help so many due to their shortage of pseudo-vaccine. Then the watching scene becomes Cindy and co. observing the effects of the sickness. Jack sure looks pretty sick at this point and his seemingly violent behaviour would only confirm their fears that he had become sick.. ? yeah that’s it.. :P

And also, someone jog my memory…

What were they “there to watch”???

It wasn’t clearly stated in the show but I (and many others) think they were there to watch Juilet’s “trial” (for killing Pickett), and possibly her execution.
