ISLAND REALITY (2007)
- Jacob is now officially Harvey
. It even fits, since the show is gaga about white rabbits.
- When Dogen the Temple Samurai caught Hurley diddling around the hieroglyphs, he said something in Japanese, which Ghost Jacob suggested was so mean that Hurley wouldn't "even even wanna know." According to Doc Jensen's twitter friends, the translation is somewhere between "If you weren't a candidate, I'd...[PUNCH YOU IN THE FACE]" and "I don't know who's protecting you, but you're lucky, otherwise I'd cut your head off." With such disparate rough translations, the only thing we know for sure is that Japanese must be a tricky language.
- Some more number-name combinations were caught in the Lighthouse. Aside from the Candidate Six (4 8 15 16 23 42), screencaps show Austen - 51 (Kate, finally! And she's NOT crossed out), Rousseau - 20 (Danielle or Alex), Mr. Friendly - 106, Linus - 117, and Dawson - 124 (that's Michael or Walt). Does the number 51 mean anything to anyone?
- Does the existence of a magical lighthouse that reflects images of where certain people live off the island based on their names having been scrawled next to a corresponding degree number on a giant wheel definitively prove that Lost DOES NOT intend to deal with its mysteries using science fiction? This episode seems firmly planted in Fantasyland.
- Scary Claire is awesome. We all knew she was going to axe that dude no matter what, right? And you gotta love that "pelt baby" in the crib. Danielle Rousseau 2.0.
FLASH-SIDEWAYS LAND (2004?)
- Another mysterious mark on Jack's body. Last time it was the strange bloody mark on his neck (in the first episode of season six), which he was surprised by on the plane. This time it's his appendix scar, which he conveniently doesn't remember getting he was seven (of course in Island Reality 2007 it was taken out by Juliet on the island).
- Speaking of Juliet, does anyone think she might be Jack's ex-wife and David's (that's Jack's son) mother? Just a guess. If Dogen and Ben and Ethan are all showing up, it's only a matter of time until we see everyone, whether or not they're on V or FlashForward or Vampire Diaries.
OBSERVATIONS RELEVANT TO BOTH TIMELINES
- A few references to Season One's Jack-chasing-his-dad's-ghost episode, "White Rabbit" - the Alice in Wonderland reading, the bunny yard ornament hiding the key, and Jack and Hurley ending up at Christian's coffin (and the two skeletons, "Adam and Eve").
- PREDICTION FOR NEXT WEEK: Episode is called "Sundown" so we can assume that the flash-sideways will be Kwon-oriented. On the Island, we'll see Alana & Co. (including Ben and Sun) try to make it to the Temple to escape the wrath of Smokey. Meanwhile, Smokey, Jin and Scary Claire (where was Sawyer, btw?) will trek down to the Temple, meet up with Scary Sayid and there'll be a BATTLE ROYALE, including the inevitable face-off between Kate and Scary Claire and the reunion of Sun and Jin (however sad and temporary that might be).
