Maybe Korean wife was looking for a chance to break free./QUOTE]
According to a story in TV Guide, we will be learning alot more about her backstory soon. There will be several surprises.
1.9 - “Solitary” Promotional Photos released.
Whoa, Sayid!
Has anyone been keeping up with the words on Charlie’s fingers? I’ve seen “fate” in one episode and this one had “late.” Maybe it’s another Alice reference (I’m late I’m late for a very important date) and the fect that Jack’s father is dead. Or maybe I spend too much time staring at Dominick. 
I thought Sawyer’s “birthday wish four years ago” was a pervie comment about being forced into sex by a hot woman, not a Kate specific comment.
Blasphemy! Tivo does no wrong.
Tivo is synced up to some fancy clock on a daily basis. Blame ABC for mis-scheduling their show.
Huh. I thought the dead guy walking around was more of a strain on the suspension of disbelief.
I only saw rocks.
That’s what I heard, too. He was making a sarcastic joke about the situation they were in. Nothing to read into.
(Sorry Tivo!) Stupid ABC. :mad:
I changed my Tivo settings to allow a couple more minutes of recording. In the meantime, can anyone tell me what the previews showed for next week? Pretty please?
That’s exactly my reaction every time I lay peepers on that man.
Whoa.
Whooooaaa.
Who, out of 46 random people, is going to know how to build a solar still? How many of them would have even heard of a solar still?
If any of them are Dopers… 
Solar stills are easy. If anybody on the plane was in the Scouts, they’ll most likely know how to make one.
Couple (or three) of things occured to me on watching the rebroadcast of the last two episodes tonight.
- Locke did not kill the boar (as someone already hypothesized), the island beast did. This conclusion is based on Locke’s reaction when Hurley (I think) praised him on killing the boar and Locke looked surprised that he would make such a statement.
- The Korean couple are not married to each other. This is based on the comment that the “husband” makes to the “wife” at the end of the White Rabbit episode when she thanks him for getting her the water. He says “That’s what husbands do.” As if that was a role he was playing.
- Hi…Veronica Hamel has not aged well. Speculation: the thing that Jack did that his mother refers to as making him responsible for going to get his dad…possibly he reported his dad was an alcoholic and not fit to perform surgery. Thus being forced out of his job as “Chief of Surgery” and causing him to loose all his friends.
-
The island beast is an elephant.
P.S. I noticed an interesting difference between the promo clips for White Rabbit and the actual broadcast show. In the promo Locke says “I have looked into the eye of the island and it is magical.” But in the actual episode he says “I have looked into the eye of the island and it is wonderful.”
I don’t see where you get that from. When you thank a friend for helping you and they say, “That’s what friends are for”, you don’t suddenly assume that they’re only pretending to be your friend, do you?
The obvious interpretation based on his “we should be independent” kick is that he was saying it to prove that her husband was all the help she needed.
Not a chance. If that were the case, I would cease watching the show right now, since it would be the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard of.
Getting water for your spouse is something that a person would do, but the Korean woman seemed surprised by it. Because of the way they interact and that they clearly aren’t comfortable or used to each other, I suspect that they are newly married or soon to be married. This might also be an arranged marriage. I have two friends who had arranged marriages and one of them didn’t meet his soon-to-be-wife until the day of the wedding. :eek:
Okay, can someone please tell those of us who missed the very end what Kate and Jack were talking about.
Barbarian, at the end Jack was telling Kate about his father dying.

The one armed farmer WAS a nod to “The Fugitive”

I noticed this type of thing a couple things, it’s very annoying but I suppose it’s more the networks doing than the producers. At least I’d like to think so. I believe he said “it’s beautiful” in the actual show. The other time I noticed this thing was in Walkabout. Boone said to Shannon “someone may have died out there”, in the promos it’s “someone died out there.”.
Any significance to the fact that Locke looked into the singular “eye” instead of “eyes”?
I don’t think so, but anyone have any thoughts?
