Notes about LOST (6.15) - "Across the Sea"
Good morning folks! In my opinion, an awesome episode last night. I heard some folks complaining that it was uneventful, but to me, it wasn't meant to be "eventful" as it was mostly an origins story, nothing more. We found out more about the island while still keeping secrets about it from us and the relationship between Jacob and Esau was
( Read more... )
I suspected the episode would give us more question and in true LOST fashion, it did. I think the only thing I want to know about the island is who started this whole thing, etc. We have 3 1/2 hours left and I think we'll find out the answe.r
1. As Stephanie mentioned below, it was definitely latin. But you two already covered that!
2. i'm almost thinking that Fake Mother originated from the original Others group on the island. She killed Claudia for the same reason the Others took folks from 815: they were possible candidates. I'm thinking that she was told ahead of time what she had to do and just as those who came before Fake Mother, they also were candidates to take over for whoever is really in charge.
3. Somebody caught a screengrab from ABC's youtube LOST channel and it actually says "Jacob and Esau." It was later removed. nobody knows if this is legit or not, but if it is true, it's a great confirmation.
4. So just to make sure I understand this: you're saying that both Jacob and MIB are already dead, but Jacob only appeared as a mortal being that one time? Interesting!
5. ah, I hadn't thought of that w/ Ben! I do like what Jacob said to Hurley in season 5 about his communication with the dead being a gift.
6. I read that too, and I was hoping for confirmation from this episode. And I'm thinking we haven't seen MIB since 2004 as he was just waiting for his moment. If the 815ers were at war against the others, they probably wouldn't trust anybody new, especially something that could be related to smokey. I know i'd run the oher direction.
I'm not sure why he took Christians form to Frank and Sun. Maybe because if somebody, especially Jack, asked who told them what to do, etc. it would influence them to stay on the island. That's my guess.
Take it easy!!
