Lost -- "The Little Prince" -- 2/4/09

Re: Lost -- "The Little Prince" -- 2/4/09
This was a disappointing episode. The fact that they revealed Jin as alive and finally started up the Rousseau storyline was the only thing that really saved it for me.
I was glad to see that Charlotte didn't die though. My fingers are crossed for these characters with their terrible migraines and nosebleeds. Maybe, just maybe, they can make it!
And here is something a bit off topic but I have to ask: was anyone else having sound problems? The audio was so low, it was hard to hear the actors voices and what they were saying at times. It's not a problem with my speakers, and I certainly hope it isn't a problem with my receiver (other stations were fine) but the audio seemed poor. That and even the video seemed weak -- like the frame rate was slightly faster than it should be. I found it very distracting tonight.

I thought it was a solid episode.
Loved seeing Jin Back. Daniel Dae Kim's appearance was uncredited right?
Loved the reveal at the end with Rosseau and her expedition team. How old was Rosseau's daughter before she died last season?
I was watching on SD tonight and the audio was a little low. I had to crank up the volume higher than normal.
I think it's funny how they are attempting to fake Los Angeles in Hawaii. You can easily tell by how the streets look and the vegetation that they aren't in California.
The editing for this episode was very good. I really enjoyed how they managed to edit a season from season 1 into one of the segments.

Speaking of time-shifting, they have shown that our group can interact with the Others in the past, but they haven't shown specifically if they can interact with their own group in the past. i.e. if Sawyer yelled out to Kate & Claire, would they hear or see him? They did show Daniel with Desmond, but that could be a special Constant connection thing. Then again, Jin could speak to Rouseau's team.
I wonder how far into the future they went when the camp was abandoned and they found the canoe. What happened to Rose & Bernard? Are they still skipping around on the same timeline as Sawyer et al? Or did they get thrown 'out of groove' on the record player and now skipping independently?
So many new questions.

You know your show is in bad shape when you feel the need to create a "Lost Untangled" primer for people who are actually WATCHING the show.
I need Dr. Emmett Brown and a chalkboard to keep things straight anymore. This season has become a confusing (albeit still well-acted) mess.

I also found it very distracting for about 10 minutes until I just got used to it.

Spoiler:
Maybe I'm missing something, and that is probable, but it really doesn't seem so complicated. The one thing that is missing is that sense of mystery the series is known for, but it's a fun ride no less.

16. She will be born shortly after the time shown in this episode. Soon the other Frenchies will go mad and die off and Russo will set up the distress signal that the Losties discovered in the pilot episode that had been running for 16 years.

Locke didn't come up to Locke when he was confused/scared at the hatch as Boone was dying. Locke said it himself, "I needed that pain".
Sawyer could have easily rushed up to Kate and Claire, but he didn't for his own reasons. Had he have done it, it wouldn't have changed the timeline and he probably would have acted like it was their-present-day Sawyer.
One thing I'm liking about this is that the people left on the island are not going to be stuck on the island anywhere near 3 years like the O6 have experienced off-island. This is another reason why Sawyer rushing up to Kate wouldn't have made much sense. It's only been hours, maybe days, since they started jumping. If it had been 3 years, maybe he would have acted differently.
I like where this is going and there seems to be little filler in these episodes as both on and off island stuff is moving at a brisk pace. I suppose we're heading toward the beginning of this season with Faraday meeting Dr. Candle (who most definitely is Miles' father, that should be clear now) during the Orchid's construction.

So Charlotte's been on the island longer then anyone, followed buy Miles and then obviously Juliette? So then the question is is whether Miles is Haliwax's son and how Charlotte is connected to everything?

Yeah, I think that all this stuff with them interacting with the past isn't changing the timeline - it has happened before and was fated to happen...

[QUOTE]was rousseau ever around jin during current time on the island? can't even remember
if she was why didn't she remember jin [QUOTE]
I was wondering this myself. It doesnt seem to make sense. Why doesn't she remember him when she meets the losties? And don't say it's because she's gone crazy because she was perfectly fine in season 4.
I'm glad you guys had audio issues too. I thought it was my speakers

Thanks for the screengrab, Palaver.
Do we know who the "subject" is? It's obviously a woman and not Kate given the address.
Lee Chin is dead? Melissa? Yellow VW Beetle?
Is it simple and I'm overlooking it?

He expected to have the same problem (or worse) than Charlotte thinking he'd never been there.
This doesn't explain why Faraday, Locke, and Sawyer aren't having problems if Juliet is already experiencing them.

This was done to get people to watch Life on Mars. They are tanking badly in the ratings, although the show seems pretty interesting.

I think this is backwards. I think Juliette > Miles > Charlotte. Because Miles said he'd never been there and Faraday asked "Are you sure?".

No i think you have it backwards. We don't know what Charlotte's connection is yet,but I think by them doing this to her they are hinting that she has been on the island before and for a significant amount of time. Miles is possibly Candle/Halliwax's son so that would explain him being there for a few years as a child and not remembering it. Juliet has only been there a few years and started her symptoms around the same time as Miles. Faraday/Locke/Sawyer have all been there for less time.

I still think Charlotte has been there the longest. The losties have only been there a few months and Juliette a couple of years(?), and Faraday only a few days.

Miles asked why Charlotte and not him as he'd never been there either. "Are you sure?" asks Faraday.
Now this is all based on the assumption that Charlotte has never been there at all. Either she hasn't and I'm right or she's had the most time on the island and you're right.
Do we know either way? I think I remember her saying something about looking for her parents and that's why she came to the island, but I can't be sure.
Again, I'm just going off what was said last night and what we've seen in the show up to this point.

I'm trying not to wonder about why the outrigger canoe didn't disappear from underneath them during the time-jump.
Wifey and I are big Jin fans, so that was an awesome reveal.
