Argh! Damn American Thanksgiving and their TV specials! I wants my LOST!
Shakes fist
Walt didn’t know about the polar bear! w00t!
Golf is a gentleman’s sport. Sure it is… Cured Hives Guy, though. (Did he get a name?)
Yeah, “child” could mean almost anything on this island.
Let’s talk about the opening minute:
Saayid finds a power cable. It goes out into the ocean and back into the jungle. Following it inland, he comes to Danielle’s hut. What is on the other end? A submarine? Could it be a previous plane crash that ‘they’ hooked up to before getting killed? Or some secret Nemo thingy?
Danielle:
Exactly what did Danielle reveal as to why she and ‘they’ were on the island in the first place. Se said they were lost. A previous crash? Or lost as in not able to survive?
She said they were on a scientific mission, but 2 hours off from Fiji their instruments failed, a storm came up, and their boat ran aground and was damaged beyond repair. It sank, they made it to the island and built a temporary shelter. Which then ended up standing for 16 years…
So, depending on the speed of their boat, they were some 30 to 60 miles from Fiji when the storm started. She didn’t say how long it lasted. They could’ve beendrug several hundred miles or some very small amount. Look for the map and drawings to help answer that Q. (WAG, not a spoiler)
HEY! 
They got rid of the stupid song endings!
Didn’t Danielle says something about the others being “carriers”? I had to watch this episode on my little crappy TV due to my SO watching the T-Wolves on the good TV, so I’m afraid I missed some things.
The cable is mysterious, like others I want to know more about it.
Sawyer may be coming around.
Does Sayid know for sure Nadia is dead?
Why is Danielle so afraid of the other LOST people? She doesn’t want to be alone, but why doesn’t she want to join them?
This was a great episode, I was on the edge of my seat the whole time.
I thought she said they left from Tahiti, not Fiji, but I could have misheard.

/nitpick/
Two hours out from Tahiti.
Whoops. I’m just tripping all over myself tonight! Sorry about that!
I thought he just got caught in that trap and then Danielle took me to her hut. Do they show the cable near/at the hut later?
Him. Took him to her hut.
Hey, I got a phone call right as she was saying it, so I couldn’t even tell if it was a boat or a plane! Good thing we have these threads.
The cable could be attatched to the sunken boat, but to what in the boat? Was it nuclear powered?
It seems they had some kind of transferrable disease, for a couple of reasons. One, because she said they were “carriers”, and Two, because she said “what would happen if they were rescued?”, implying that if they were rescued, the disease would spread. Still, this is one of those shows that I can’t wait to see more of.
yeah. He was following the cable and got snagged. I’m assuming it went on to her hut, but nothing canon in that assumption.
Also, her hut had a lot of power. She was using several devices. Including an electric chair.
An electric chair
What an odd thing to build on a desert island, no?
He was tied to a metal bed frame, and she was zapping him through that.
Still, if you’re tossed off a boat and have to make a temporary shelter, where the hell do you get a metal bedframe from?
I think there are others on this island and that place she’s in is not the shelter she (and her husband) first built, but one she took over. I mean, there’s a light and a bed and everything.
Even a makeshift electric chair made from bedknobs and broomsticks is still an odd thing to build in their situation (as we know it).
I could use the metal in the bedframe for all sorts of tools, they made it into an electric chair. Why? Or, did she just now do it for Saayid?
Hmmmm…“carriers”…“sick”…“what would happen if they were rescued”…“watch them closely”…and that one guy has the “hives”…
I GOT it!! It’s the RAGE virus!
Um…you know…from 28 Days Later…? No…?
As a side point, Joe Piscabo looked pretty bad on Law & Order.
