    I don't recall Danielle saying that the signal originated from the Black Rock, but she did say that the "others" now controlled it.

    I doubt that they gave any such orders. Ana Lucia just had the misfortune to be guarding Henry Gale at that moment, just as Libby had the misfortune of entering the hatch just after Michael killed Ana.

    One thing that annoyed me greatly was when Sawyer and Kate went to retrieve the heroin. There was some urgency here - Libby was suffering - but they were walking casually, seemingly without a care, even joking. I would have moved as fast as I could both there and back and I certainly would not...

    Well, I'm so relieved that you're so certain of things!:) If you replay the part where Libby got shot, you can see the first bullet hit the pillow in her lower, center abdomen. The second was higher and to our right and grazed her at best and may have missed her altogether. Of course, the...

    I'll be mighty disappointed if the traitor turns out to be one of the survivors that we haven't met yet. It likely could be, but it would be a cheat. Who could it be? Of the main characters, based on what we've seen so far, I eliminate Jack, Kate, Locke, Claire (the chick with the baby), Sayid...

    Anyone see the LOST preview on Desperate Housewives? It seems that there is a traitor in their midst, plus a conspiracy. The preview implies that the traitor is Locke so it's probably not him. My first guess is Michael. Even though he only spent a bit over a week in LOST time among the...

    I have no familiarity with mental illness. Can someone suffering a mental illness actually "see" a person that isn't there, or is this merely a writers device?

    For those complaining about the many reruns, here's a compromise solution said to be proposed by the shows producers: 'Lost' producers lobby for scheduling change So, what do you think? It's ok with me.

    When Sayid, Ana Lucia, Charlie and Jack went into the hatch they found Henry Gale helping Locke. Immediately, Jack grabbed Henry and pinned him to the wall but Locke said it was ok, he was just helping him. It appears that Locke has bought Henry Gale's story. Sayid told him that they had...

    Anybody look up the address listed on Henry Gale's (the real Henry Gale) drivers license? It's a real looking Minnesota DL, the city, Wayzata, does exist (near the Twin Cities) and the zip code is at least a Twin Cities area zip. I forgot to write down the address so I'll have to watch again.

    I made this point earlier - an around the world trip by balloon is something very much out of the ordinary; newspapers, radio stations and television news shows everywhere would have carried stories about the attempt, along with progress reports. Its disappearance would be big news. Most of the...

    I don't think so. We've already concluded that these "others" could wipe out all the survivors. What have they to fear from them? If they wanted to keep them out, disable the door! The plane survivors have no tools, other than some very risky dynamite, to open it. Furthermore, how many hatches...

    I believe Rousseau already knew about her daughter. I'll bet she's even meets with her once in while. After all, Danielle has been on the island for 16 years, has probably traveled all over it and encountered the "others", including her daughter, many times. The real question is why Danielle has...

    "Henry Gale" was a around-the-world balloonist? How improbable is that? There haven't been many such attempts; it's quite possible that, if he were what he says he is, someone would have heard of him. Certainly, his flight would have made news services around the world and his disappearance...

    I thought it a bit odd that Locke kept the Virgin Mary statues. However, it may be his thought that heroin is a also a powerful painkiller and that, despite its addictive qualities, they just might need it someday.

    The only TV I saw in the recruiting office was when Kate left, and if anyone can make out who it was in the blurry, very brief view - well, ye got worlds better eyes than anyone I've ever heard of. Did the film in Ecko's book contain only the missing segment? I thought it was another copy of...

    There's a couple things that have puzzled me since the beginning of Lost. Aren't commercial planes tracked wherever they go these days? Until Oceanic Flight 815 went down, wouldn't it have displayed on somebodys radar, even if it was off course? I probably have the wrong impression about how...

    I liked this episode, as I do all episodes. All of Lost is evolving slowly like a book. If the pace quickens too much, the series will devolve into nothing but an action show. A few points: 1.) We saw the tail section hit at several hundred mph. It should have disintegrated; there should...

    She also said it was now controlled by the "others". I would be compelled to explore. I'd like Sayid with me, and maybe someone else (not Charlie, Jack or Sawyer but possibly Locke or Kate). Actual travel speed would average much less than two mph because they're quite likely to do a lot of...

    This has yet to be revealed. There was a rumor that the dog Vincent would be featured in a flashback last season done from his point of view in the cargo hold that would have given us some clues on why the plane came apart, but the writers shelved the idea when the idea was leaked. Maybe to be...

    This was my interpretation also. On the other hand, tennis shoes are pretty quiet already, and the explosion eliminated any chance of surprise.

    Except for the numbers on the hatch and on the vial, the numbers can have no meaning other than a supernatural one. If the writers are resorting to supernatural devices, I will be mightyly disappointed - I may even stop watching. I do not believe the time for supernatural devices has come...

    A synopsis of the October 5 episode: "Orientation" Jack, Locke and Kate learn more secrets about the hatch; Michael, Sawyer and Jin wonder if their captors are fellow survivors or the dreaded others. Pretty interesting. Speculation follows: Maybe I missed it, but I don't...

    Hurley is Hispanic. The comic book is in Spanish. Hurley does seem the type that reads comic books. It survived the crash and was found by Walt. I wouldn't make anything of Hurley's thumbs up. People associate the polar bear in the comic book and the polar bears on the island as every time...
