What about JI YEON? dun-DUN-DUHNNNNN *pow* L O S T. [Inverted black on white].

So I wonder if one of the "rules" stipulate that children cannot be part of the game. Or maybe they're more of a lophole than adults? Could explain why the children were taken to the temple. It could also explain some of the significance people place on Aaron.

It's not an alternate reality, Cuse/Lindy have said as much in several interviews.

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

Your wife is mistaken. 31 is Rutherford (Shannon), 55 is Burke (Juliet), 147 is Lewis (Charlotte), 313 is Littleton (Potentially Aaron, but could be Claire), 321 is Fernandez (Nikki), and there are few other incompletes that may be women.

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

Anyone else tired of the "mystery character" thing they do on this show where they show someone from behind (or from the side) for a few seconds and we only hear their voice and are clearly supposed to wonder who it is? Especially when it's always Ben? :D

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

Ben's voice is so distinctive, too. It was hilarious.

And on a seperate note, Sawyer is no dummy. I think he's playing smokie big time and working his greatest con of all time.

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

This is why I think they allowed (forced) Walt to leave. He had some perception of something going on and they had to remove him from the "game".

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

Or, he kept having massive growth spurts and no longer looked like a 12 year old kid. :D

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

Alternate, concurrent, etc. I don't care if the writers are coy about the name, but it's not on the island and it involves something different that what we've seen before. And if it hasn't hapepned on screen I don't necessarily believe everything they tell us. Before they said everything could be explained by science. I'm just waiting with baited breath to see them pull a rabbitt out of the science hat to explain smokey...

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

Yeah, I hope the kids with special powers* thing is something that is addressed before it all ends.

*that's another big Stephen King thing, come to think of it and it also ties into the Dark Tower.


With those mutton chops? Absolutely.

Why would someone as lucky, wealthy, and large as Hurley be sitting in coach on an international flight?

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

Actually, this is a pretty interesting theory...I like it :)

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

All they need is a billybumbler :)

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

And he's much larger than Kevin Smith. Oceanic must be more lenient than Southwest.

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

Nazi Germany was more lenient that Southwest Airlines.

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

Kevin Smith flies Southwest.


I don't think that Locke would have seen Hurley on the flight. He's in a wheelchair, so he was probably the first to board and we saw for a fact that he was the last to deplane.

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

:hscratch: If he was first on board and last to leave, wouldn't that point more to the argument that it was inevitable that he did see Hurley walk past him twice?

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

I never understood why they didnt just change actors. The audience would have adapted.

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

I know...? Not sure what that has to do with my question.

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

I agree with the Aaron statement. But I'm sticking with the kid being "little Jacob". Mainly since the kid also has blonde hair and speaks with MiB about the island rules. Other than that, no idea...

Maybe it's Jacob Jr.?

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

Or maybe there is a cycle that these characters repeat. I read somewhere that someone mentioned the Hawkman and how he and his wife were made to live their lives over and over again in different bodies but retaining all memories good and painful from previous lives. Maybe this is some incarnation of that.

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

And maybe the origin of the ash that is used to ward off the "bad guy"? What's-her-face picked up a bunch of it from the Jacob fire pit. Is it possible the origin of the ash is previous cycles of Jacob?

Re: Lost: The Final Season -- "The Substitute" -- 02/16/10
 

Jacob = Jean Grey!?!
