L O S T 3/20

I was so sure that Michael was going to die because whenever they kill someone off, it is always an episode centered around that person.

I hope that Rousseau is just hurt and not dead.
 
I was hoping I wasn't going to have to eat my words, but instead it was a character that we haven't seen too much of recently. I wish I could say that part was more shocking. In any event it was a great episode.

That said, after all of this time they finally get Libby back and this is all we see. Sux.
 
I'm starting to believe that it really doesn't matter which side the survivors side with, Widmore or Ben. Pretty sure they'd be screwed either way.
 
We know for a fact that Ben is a mass murderer and the ultimate manipulator. I'd take my chances with Penny's dad however big of a prick he might be.
 
Just remember that Sayid, who right now seems to hate Ben more than anyone, ends up working for him. Ben must have some redeeming characteristic.
 
If by redeeming characteristic you mean he's threatening the life of someone Sayid cares about I think you're right.
 
Yeah I think redeeming is a little strong there. We don't know yet whether it's Ben threatening them personally, or if it's some indirect threat that they are addressing. But my guess is if Sayid doesn't think he can hunt Ben down and take him out, that says something either about how powerful Ben actually is, or how many cards he's holding over Sayid's head.

Having said that, I tend to think Penny's dad is probably the lesser of two evils in this case. Who knows, taht could be proven wrong in the next episode.
 
Am I remembering correctly - the boaties told Sayid that Ben staged the fake Oceanic crash and then in last night's episode Tom told Michael that Whitmore staged the fake crash?
 
Theory:

Ben's group thinks that Whidmore staged the crash because they know that THEY didn't do it.

Whidmore's group thinks that Ben staged the crash because they know that THEY didn't do it.

Answer: -- NEITHER of them did it. There's a third "group" out there. Maybe the old Dharma Initiative leadership back on the mainland?
 
That's a pretty good theory. There has to be some remnants of Hanso / Dharma still around. I'd like to know who is behind the air drops?
 
I don't think Ben had Karl and Rousseau shot. Remember when Frank (the chopper pilot) told someone on the ship he had an "errand" to run on the island?
 
I think a lot of it depends on whether Ben could/would forge documents (which Michael didn't actually even look at closely anyway) proving who planted the crash. And pics of a bunch of open graves? Wow, that's some pretty convincing evidence there!

That's an intriguing theory that neither side REALLY knows who planted the plane. Not sure I buy into it, but that would be a cool twist.
 
Oh and btw, one more reason for me to detest Michael - why in the WORLD would you choose your pre-teen son as the person you're going to unload on to ease your own guilty conscience? So you've killed a couple of people in an effort to rescue your son, and now your guilt is eating you up. What do you do? Let's pass the guilt on to the kid!!!
 
I think Ben is the one who faked the plane crash in the ocean because I think Ben is the one with more to lose if the island is discovered.
 
ok, please help since i'm a little confused with the oceanic6. we have:
kate
jack
hurley
sun
sayid
aaron

i'm going with aaron since the promos pretty much said that. so cool. but 8 people "survived" and 2 died, 6 made it back, cool. i'm going to assume that claire survived, had aaron and then died. that leaves one person who we dont know that survived the crash but later died before the rescue.

but now kate calls aaron her son and refuses to let her mom see the child, presumably because then the mom will know its not her kid. i found that to be a very reasonable explanation but now i dont think so. did she adopt him, and if so, why call him her son? why not let her mom see her "grandson"?

i think the show wants us and the regular people in the lost universe to believe that aaron is kates biological son. but that would mean that they get stuck on island for a really long time, much longer than 3 months (which is what i think they are at now, right?). so i'm confused. either they claim aaron is kate's kid and we have a lot more time on the island (which the promo seems to show that we dont) and claire died on impact or . .well i dont know. thanks in advance if anyone can clear this up.
 
That's from the Oceanic Six's story. There were 8 survivors of 815's crash, but two of them didn't make it to rescue. They're probably dead, as far as the O6 cover is concerned. For what it's worth, the guys on the official podcast say the identity of the other two aren't important to the storyline.

Still too early to say obviously, but for now I'm going with the idea that per the O6 cover story, Kate's claiming she was pregnant with Aaron when the plane crashed and had him on the island simply because I can't imagine her being allowed to keep the kid, especially while on trial for murder/assault/fraud/etc.
 
well thats why i'm confused. if kate claims she got pregnant with aaron, then got rescued with aaron presumably born, then she couldnt have been all that pregnant when the plane crashed. they haven't been on the island that long so that means that they are going to theoretically be on the island for much longer so they can't be rescued any time soon. something just seems fishy with the time line.... i think there is a lot more story to be told before we have any concrete answers
