Typical Wednesday Lost thread bump to remind everyone it's on.

LSPoorEeyorick · 03-29-2006, 03:48 PM

I enter the thread at last.

Tom and I spent two whole Lost lost weekends with few breaks (except, uh, a little beating with the Jesus stick) and we have finally gotten caught up to the current episode. It's our first one we'll watch as it's airing.

Everybody's been thanking god for TiVo. TiVo ShmiVo. I thank god for iTunes, which has allowed us to purchase the season thus far and put it on our video iPod and project it on things. Sweet.

I don't know who Henry Gale is, but whoever it is, it's not good.

The hieroglyphs (though one is not readable on any of the caps) are presumed to mean "to be killed," or something similar. From Egyptian. See the Lost section on Wikipedia.com.

How is "Henry Gale" going to explain that one?

So I guess Dharma still drops supplies to the people that are to be minding the hatch? Why did the blast doors come down? Was it to coincide with the drop of supplies? If so, why?

Was that Sayid's girlfriend (from his flashbacks) that Locke was inspecting the home for?

Don't lie to the ones you love! You dork Locke!

Interesting that "Henry Gale" came back to Locke, despite the fact that he wasn't who he said he was. Why didn't he just run?

And what in the world were those symbols on the door? Screencaps, please!

OK, time to download the next episode from iTunes! Wait... what? No? NOOOOOOOOOO! I refuse to wait a week for a new episode. Why do crappy shows like "American Idol" get to be on two nights a week, and the good stuff gets doled out so slowly? None of this "good stuff takes time to make." MORE!

I didn't notice the drop

When did it occur so I can go back and watch on my TiVO? How would the supplies be dropped? And where were they dropped? I feel so confused.

I found this map of the door overlay.

That does appear to be Nadia. I wonder if that was post Gulf War.

And why did the balloon have a box of Dharma food?

The baloon didn't have food. The thing with the food was a parachute, not the baloon, separate things. There seems to have been a food drop.

My 2 theories.

1) The drops come FROM balloons. How else could they make the drops without anyone hearing an aircraft?

2) It's possible that either the Others or, if we subscribe to the theory that the Others are subjects of the same expriement, whoever's actually running things could have easily dug up his wife and replaced it with a black guy and a fake id.

Now, how are they going to get the blast doors back down to read the scribblings?

Wasn't Dorothy's last name in "Wizard of Oz", Gale?
And didn't the wizard get to/out of Oz in a balloon?

I can't take credit for that theory, it was passed along to me by a friend.

In the bottom left corner it says, "PR Disney!"

Awesome.

Actually, Dorothy's uncle's name is Henry Gale. (Aunt Em, Uncle Henry.)

If you're held captive, and you've just given them what they asked for, why mess with them? Unless of course you've been messing with them the whole time? And who's to say he didn't really crash his ballon? Doesn't mean he can't be an Other. I like that Hurly's running around with a secret stash of candy bars. Also Sawyer was reading "Are you there God, it's me Margaret" - I LOVE that book. I'm sure it has some significance but I'm not sure what.
