S.O.S.

Let's talk about LOST! S.O.S.




{Click the pics!}


Rose is organizing the beach food pantry on the beach. {I guess the one in the hatch is off limits now!} Bernard seems bothered by the food and the situation. He questions if she’s even remotely curious where all this came from.
Rose was raised to "Never question her blessings."
Bernard was raised to question "food with weird labels that just fall out of the sky".
Rose feels he is having a bad day.  Bernard complains that he’s had seven weeks of bad days on the other side of the island, just trying to stay alive; so I can get back to her. "But here, my god Rose, they've built a kitchen on the beach. They've given up."
Rose nonchalantly asks- "Given up? On what?"
Bernard-"On getting rescued."

The beeping of the countdown clock is heard.


Two minutes on the beeping clock.
John is at the computer drawing on 'foil' tray/wrapper from Apollo Bars. {How many Apollo bars has John eaten? Crutches lean against the desk.} He closes his eyes, trying to use his minds "eye" to remember and sketch out the blast door map.
Frustrated John is so engrossed in this, that the alarm had to have been beeping for two minutes already, and he hasn't heard it! {The alarm starts a 4 minutes.}
At the 1 minute warning, Jack asks "Are you gonna get that?" making Locke snap out of it.
John enters the code, resetting the timer. He looks up at the timer and gives it a pissed off look as if he's annoyed by it.


Jack asks Ana when the last time was she went in to see “him”.
Ana, who is reading a book with maps, tells Jack she went in to see Henry a couple of hours ago; he was sleeping. It's been two days since Henry spoke, ate or drank anything.
Jack is tired of waiting. He opens the armory door.
Fake Henry appears to “turn on/come to attention” and sits up.
It is obvious he doesn’t want to talk.  Jack is going to change his dressing and if he tries anything then, “We’ve got a problem”.

Ana Lucia stands guard. {Just look at her face!} They still call their prisoner Henry.
Jack reminds Fake Henry of the conversation they had before they found out who he was.
Jack- "You were saying if you were one of them, that you'd lead us into a trap. Capture our people, force a trade. Us for you. It’s a pretty good idea, Henry. And since you are one of them, I thought now’d be a good time to use it."
Jack is going out to the line that they're not supposed to cross and telling them that they've got him. And if they want him back, it's gonna cost them. And when they get Walt back, he might just have been worth all the trouble.
Fake Henry speaks! "They'll never give you Walt."

A car is stuck in the snow. The tire just spins unable to move forward.  
New York. {Wow! I remember snow in N.Y.!}
A man/Bernard offers to help the driver/Rose. He advices her not to gun it; "You have to rock it out". She's been driving in snow her whole life; she'll manage, yet she continues to gun it and just spin her “wheels”.
Rose wants to call triple A. {The song These Arms of Mine plays.} He asks her to trust him, he can do this. He pushes her car from behind; instructs her to ease on the gas. {Plate number BNQ 1925} The stuck car moves forward and Bernard falls.   Rose gets out and tells him she would have gotten it out eventually.
Bernard- "Oh sure, July's right around the corner."
They share a laugh and she thanks him for the help. They introduce themselves. As Bernard is about to get in his car Rose offers to buy him a cup of coffee. Bernard jumps at the offer!
{Flash Whoosh}
Watch Bernard walk across the beach!
Rose talks to Hurley about Dharmalars. She had to beat back half the group; she saved them for him. But Hurley is on the fish and water diet.
Bernard marches right up to Hurley and asks what he’s doing right now.
Hurley-“Uh talking to your wife.” {Does Bernard not see her right there?!}
Bernie asks if Hurley can get Libby and meet him at the edge of the tree line in five minutes. He also wants Hurley to round up Jin and Sun, Jenkins and Neil Frogurt the frozen yogurt guy and Craig and anyone else he can get. Bernard has an idea!

In the hatch Ana tells Jack that she’s not so sure trading people is their thing.
Jack feels that talking to Henry is getting them nowhere, so maybe they can get something for him. She asks him if he wants her to go with him.
We see Locke still sitting at the computer.
Jack grabs two snack bars from the pantry.
Ana advises him not to go out there alone. {They still get to use the pantry!}
Jack looks over at Locke and tells Ana that she "needs to stay here."
Ana gives him the gun.
She tells Jack "You need it more than I do." {Because she's not friggin afraid of Henry!!!}
Jack takes her gun. Ana again advises him not to go out there alone.

At the beach Kate and Sawyer are gathering up...{It fucking better NOT be oysters! Jin said in 'THE WHOLE TRUTH' that there weren't ANY oysters there!!! I'm gonna friggin freak!!!}
Kate has gathered four of these "not" oysters. Hehehe.
Sawyer is amused to note Dr. Giggles walking over.
Jack tells Kate that he's "going back out to the jungle and talk to their friend with the beard. See if we can make a trade".
Sawyer-“Ah. The ol prisoner exchange. And you're inviting me along cause you want a gun?"
Only Jack's not inviting Sawyer, he's inviting Kate, and he's already got a gun. Sawyer wonders how Jack got a gun. Kate goes along with Jack.

Bernard is spearheading a pep talk to a bunch of people that have been recruited for the project.
They've been on the Island two months. Bernard shares his amazement about the Castaway's all becoming comfortable with life on the Island. He asks them if they’ve “forgotten they “crashed on this Island. It's like none of you want to go home again."

Claire proclaims they do want to go home.  Bernard wonders  then why  aren’t they doing anything about it. Hurley mentions the building of the raft; that counts, even though it got blown up. Bernard reminds them the pallet of food had a parachute. "Which means a plane dropped it here. Which means there are other planes that fly over the Island."
He wants to make a MASSIVE SIGN for planes and satellites to see.
Rose-"Maybe you should speak to Jack about this first?"
Bernard- "Do we have to run everything by Jack? I mean he's not the president, he's a doctor". {President Jack? Hmmm.}
Rose- "You're a dentist."
The group giggles. Rose has embarrassed him. {You can see how annoyed Rose is by this attempt at rescue}
Privately Bernard tells Rose, "It's just a sign. I don't see what the harm is?"
Rose is bothered by him telling people about airplanes and satellites coming out of nowhere to save the day. Bernard is just trying to do something, “I wanna get back to our life.”
Rose - "The only thing you're doing is giving these people false hope!" {Bernard seems hurt}
Bernard- "Excuse me. I have a SIGN to build."

Rose and Bernard are having a meal at a Niagara Falls restaurant. They have the perfect window seat with spectacular view.   Rose is impressed by the beautiful amazing falls, Bernard is not.   She asks him "What does God have to go to get your attention?"
He is distracted. He calls over two violin players to play while he kneels down and proposes to Rose.   Bernard has been a bachelor for 56 years.
Bernard- "We fell into this rhythm, like we had known each other forever. I'd always dreamed of finding somebody like you, but I had given up hope that I ever would."
He knows it's crazy; they met five months ago. Five months is long enough because he knew after five minutes. He presents her with box; an engagement ring.  Bernard loves her. He asks her to marry him.
Rose reveals she's sick and she's dying; she has cancer.  She was in remission for the last couple of years, now its back; this time it's not going away. She has about a year, maybe a little longer.
Bernard looks stunned, yet only wants the answer to his question.
Rose says yes.
{Flash Whoosh}
Eko and Charlie are moving logs for their construction project.   Bernard marches up, {Charlie must be quite the craftsmen. He's helping Eko, and he was helping Sayid with building projects. Wow! What a guy} and tells Eko "You bunk with a guy for 48 days, and now he doesn't call or write."
Bernard explains that he has a whole team of folks throwing together a big sign...” and he could use all the bodies  he can get to help put it together. {YEP AGAIN!}
Eko, who is obviously focused on his task, says he is busy.    Charlie only has two hands, so he can't help, but he wishes Bernie good luck.   Eko won't share any of his logs.   Charlie reveals they are building a church. {It sounds like they consider the Island home to me.}
Bernard is very frustrated. "Everybody on this Island is building something! I'm trying to get us saved." {Everybody is building something! Does Bernard know of more building happening on the island? Hmmm.}
Eko tells him that people are saved in different ways.    Bernard liked Eko better when he just hit people with his stick. {How many times has Bernard witnessed that?} Eko and Charlie don't miss a beat and continue to build.


A record is playing a lovely Island tune in the hatch. Locke is still sitting at the computer working on his drawing. He is very frustrated and his leg seems to bother him.
Ana is on the floor working on something/pulley with ratchets/tools. {I don't know what she's doing, but it looks like a pulley. That and the ratchet sound could be considered similar to one of the sounds related to the monster}

Locke wants to talk to "him".
Ana tells Locke that Jack has the gun, the door stays closed. She encourages Locke to talk to him through the door. Locke hobbles over to the armory on his crutches {one shoe on, one off. Watch Ana while he talks to Henry.}
Locke- "Henry can you hear me? It's John, Henry… Henry did you enter the numbers? Did you push the button or not? Henry, I need to know! I need you to answer me. Answer me!!!"
Fake Henry sits there grinning. {He has started something BIG!}




Back at the beach, Bernard is losing his recruits; he’s down to eight. They have been lugging those big black rocks.
Bernard, who is undeterred, says, "Moving on."
He instructs the rest on what he wants done. The letters have to be really big; 40 feet. The black rocks will get maximum contrast with the sand. They have to retrieve the rocks from the lava field that’s a half of mile inland.    He wants them to get the rocks in two man teams. Bernie will sketch the letters in the sand.
Hurley offers to sketch the letters, but Bernard reminds him that 'Everybody's got a job Hurley, I do my job, you do yours" {Yep! Jobs done in a distinct manor.}
Jin says something in Korean. Hurley somewhat interprets that Jin's not happy about carrying the rocks. {How did Jin know that's what Bernard's instruction was?}
Bernard tells Jin "ROME wasn't built in a day you know."
Let’s get started.
{Flash Whoosh}
Rose and Bernard are driving through the Outback.
Rose –“We’re lost.
Bernard- "You saying we're lost, doesn't make us lost, sweetheart. I know exactly where we are."
So does Rose, “Driving around in circles in the middle of the outback.”
That’s why she wanted to be on a beach for their Honeymoon. {Down under, the steering wheel is on the right side not the left.}
When they arrive at a farm/civilization Rose is heard saying-“Bernard must get directions.”
Bernard-"I don't need directions. I told you honey, we're not lost.
He explains why he brought her there.  He wants her to see Isaac of Uluru, the faith healer who's helped hundreds of people.  Bernard insists he's legit; the real deal.  Bernard received three separate calls recommending him after informing people of Rose’s situation.     Bernard donated $10,000 to get Rose in. {Bernard in Plaid. License plate- MRL-724}
Rose gets upset that this is why Bernard brought her to Australia; to bring her to this kook. "I didn't ask for this!"
Rose has made her peace with what's happening to her but Bernard hasn't.  He can't just do nothing! That’s not who he is. He asks her to try, for him.




At the beach Bernard is still trying to recruit folks to help him. He asks Sawyer for help but his answer is no.   Rose is filling up water bottles and heard him asking for help.
Bernard started with 15 people, now he's down to four. He expected her support.

 Rose suggests people may be quitting because "Maybe you got yourself a management problem." {Is that like a Locke problem?!}
Bernard is pissed at her not wanting to help get them rescued.
Rose wonders why can't Bernard just let things be.
Bernard- "If I didn't always have to do something, you wouldn't be here.”
Rose walks away. {Oh really!}

In the jungle, Jack and Karen, I mean Kate is on their trek.    Jack admits to asking Sayid to come with him first, but he turned him down.    Jack asked Kate, because they don't want her.   They don't want him either.  Damaged goods, both of them! {Maybe Jack knows they don't want Sayid either.}
Kate reaches down to pick up a doll that is missing an eye. It's a trap! Jack tries to stop her but it's too late; they’re both hanging together in a net from the tree.
Jack feels it's not one of “Theirs”.
Kate- “Not sophisticated enough. Must be one of Rousseau's traps. Hopefully she’s not far from here.”
Jack says that it'll be a week before she shows up. {How the fuck does he know her schedule?}  Kate's going to use the gun and shoot the rope to release them. {She grew up hunting with her dad.}
Kate shoots, and misses! It's Jack's turn. He can waste another bullet because he still has “13 more to shoot each other with." {WTF?} Jack very, very confidently makes the shot! YEAH!!! They fall to the ground.

Back at the beach Bernard yells at Jin, who is the last one standing.   Bernard demands three rows of rocks so they can see it from the air.   Jin answers in Korean.
Bernard pleads with Jin; he just wants to get Rose home.
Jin says "Sorry" in English, and leaves Bernie to his project.

Locke is sitting at the beach and Rose walks over.  He's in her spot! {Uh huh}
John-"I can move."
She sarcastically joking asks "Can you?"
She guesses his sense of humor got trapped under that door with his leg.
Locke comments he saw her husband in the jungle hauling rocks.
Rose tells Locke about the big sign in the sand Bernard is building "So the satellites will see it. That man doesn’t know the difference between an errand and a fool’s errand.”
Locke seems amused, “Well Rose, most of us don’t.”
Rose can't remember the last time she saw John out of that hatch.
Locke is done with the hatch.
Rose feels he's just frustrated, "You'll be out of that splint and running around the island again in no time." {Sure will!}
Locke- "And yet Jack said it would be at least four weeks." {I heard Jack say a couple of weeks not four. AH! But what do I know?}
Rose- "But Honey, You and I both know it's not gonna take that long." {Those two know lots of things!!}
{Flash Whoosh}






{The crutches hanging here remind me of the "roots" on the "Island"}






Rose is led in to meet Isaac the “healer”.
There are crutches, canes and walkers all over the place!
Thank you notes cover the walls.




Rose asks Isaac how this works; does he chant or pray or what?  Isaac explains to Rose that there are certain places with great energy, spots on the earth; like the one they're above right now.  Perhaps its geological, magnetic or something else. He  can harness this energy and give it to others.
{Note Isaac has two different eyes.}
Isaac closes his eyes and hovers his hands around her head.  Rose just watches him do his thing.  He tries to heal Rose but he can't do anything for her. Rose didn’t expect him to.
Isaac tells her "It doesn't mean that you can't be healed. Like I said, there's different energies. This is not the right place for you {Gee, she must NEED to go to the “Island”.}
Rose wonders, “Where is the right place?”
Isaac-“I wish I knew.”
Rose will tell Bernard that "You fixed me"
Rose watches Bernard through the window talking to a little girl on crutches.
{Flash Whoosh}
In the rainy jungle Jack questions Kate what she meant back there in the net; that "they were sophisticated, the Others".
She mentions that last week when the baby got sick, she and Claire went into the jungle and found another hatch; a medical station. It was all cleared out. But there were lockers with dirty worn clothes on hangers, like costumes, make up kit, fake beard. She was going to tell him all this when he decided to let her back in the club. {WHAT CLUB?} He kept one of them locked up in the hatch for like a week and said nothing…
Jack tells her, "We're here". {Okay! That time he was there it was fucking DARK! Now it's daylight and raining!} You can actually see him recall events from that night including "There is where I laid my guns down".
Jack starts yelling for them! He is very focused and pleased with this.
"HEY! HEY I'M BACK! YOU SAY YOU'RE WATCHING US! YOU HEAR ME! WE'VE GOT YOUR MAN! IF YOU WANT HIM BACK YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO COME OUT HERE! COME ON OUT! I KNOW YOU'RE OUT THERE! I KNOW YOU CAN HEAR ME! I'LL BE RIGHT HERE UNTIL YOU TALK TO ME! I'LL BE RIGHT HERE!
{You can hear Kate say they're not here.}

At the beach Rose brings Bernard supper. He is working alone moving the black rocks. Rose asks where everybody is.  Bernard looks very worn out.
Rose apologizes to him for lying about Isaac healing her. "He didn't heal me. He didn’t do anything."
But she is healed!

We see Rose in the airport sitting next to Bernard. He has a ticket in hand.
Rose- "When you're sick and you've got something inside you that doesn't belong there, you can feel it. And after the crash, I couldn't feel it anymore. At first I thought it was just shock, but it wasn't. It's this place."
She told that lie so that they could spend whatever time they had left without Bernard trying to “do something.”
Bernard feels maybe she's in remission. How does she know she’s not?
We see Rose take meds of her bag; one bottle falls. Locke, in a wheelchair, picks it up for her. {Flash Whoosh}
Rose-"Trust me. I know."


Bernard realizes that Rose doesn't want to be rescued. "You think if you leave, it'll come back. And if you can't leave, then neither can I. We won't ever leave Rose."
They hug, I cry!  Bernie would offer to take down the sign but they didn’t get very far with building it.

In the hatch, Locke is smiling, listening to a record; These Arms of Mine. {Same song as Rose and Bernard.}
Ana walks in and tells Locke with happiness that she pressed his button.
Locke-"It's not my button." {Ana smiles. She knows whose button it is.}
Ana- “Where’d you go?”
Locke, after needing to stretch his legs on his crutches, hobbles back into the computer room to work on his blast door map. He seems more confident, focused and happy now. {The words on the paper he is drawing on, is in French.}









Eko and Charlie are working on the church in the dark.
Sun and Jin are tender with each other.
Claire is playing with Aaron.
Hurley and Libby are making shadow puppets.
Vincent finds his way to lonely Sawyer and eats right out of his hand.
Bernard and Rose are romantic by the fire.

In the jungle, tired Kate asks Jack how long he's going to wait. When his voice comes back, he'll yell some more.
Jack feels “They can hear me.”
Kate apologizes for kissing him. Apparently he’s not sorry.
They hear a twig snap and footsteps run through the jungle. They see a lit torch and hear hurried labored breathing.
Michael falls out of the jungle!





S.O.S. is a GREAT EPISODE!!!!
Dark and light. Rose and Bernard tied to the "Island".  Yes! But how?  They know exactly where they are.
Is Bernard a recruiter of some sort, or a guide? Who the hell is he, just a Tailie?!    Rose is important. Was Rose recruited or part of a medical study there?    Is cancer a byproduct of tests or experiments on the Island? Did she even really have cancer? Did she get "healed" by the “Island”?
What about Locke?  He and Rose share a major connection.
The metaphor of the "crutch" is great!   These emotionally lost people do indeed have "crutches".
I must note that sometimes I feel that when Locke is talking to other people, i.e. Henry, Eko, Rose, Jack, etc. that he’s really talking to himself.

Things to Note...Questions to ask...
☯ Trade. Deal. Cost. Worth. Boundaries. Line. Value.
☯ Record. Log. Stick. Map. Numbers. Button. Computer. Net. Crash.
☯ Is Rose a different “energy”?
☯ Have Rose and Bernard known each other for forever? I feel they will stay on the Island.
☯ The hatch is painted a “rose” color.
☯ Remission is a "holding pattern" of sorts.
☯ Clues and ties to the monster and Locke.
☯ Satellites more important than planes. Other planes as in levels, perhaps.
☯ Jack and Kate experts on traps made by others. HA!
☯ Is something BIG being built on the "Island" besides Eko's church of sticks?
☯ Rose knows that they belong on the "Island". Rose and Locke are aware Bernard is wasting his time. Could Locke taking over Roses spot? LOL!!
☯ Locke is done with the hatch! He's moved on to something else. Drawing the blast door map!
☯ French and Greek clues.
☯ One of them= what?...Whom?
☯ And then there's Michael! HA!
☯ Fake. Isaac the healer. Costumes, theatrical makeup, beards.
☯ In Lockdown John gave Helen a box with an engagement ring and asked her to marry him.
☯  It is NOT John Locke's button.
☯The little girl on crutches Bernard speaks to… Is she someone who is going into to see Isaac in hopes of being healed? Or proof that he is a fake?

This episode hit close to home for me, more than you’ll ever know.   Here I can relate to exactly why Rose won’t entertain the idea of leaving.   If only there really was a beautiful place to go to feel safe, to find inner peace, be free from fear, guilt and sickness,  I’d be on the first flight there.    It seems as if deep emotional and physical pain and challenges can this only be “fixed” on "this Island” and through the new challenges the “Island” presents.

Back to Bernard's sign...It is very possible this is really a “sign” that “something” is going to happen again.
So...S.O.S... Same Ol Shit!

Love to all who are "LOST"™

Disclaimer: I never claim to know everything about the show and my thoughts by no means make me right. The things I share here are my views and/or opinions. I don't claim to catch every single detail either. You all know I hate spoilers, and I stand clear of reading certain sites as to not take me off my own course of research. The one thing I don't need to do here is rehash all of the obvious clues from an episode, we all know what they are. Understood? Good. Let the fun begin!I'll only note things that I know come up as clues later, but need to be noted when they first show up and things I find that will be of importance. It will get very exciting as we progress into the story.

White Rabbit.

Let's talk about LOST! White Rabbit.




A chain/chain link fence can be heard.
EYE.
The bully tells him to, “Stay down.”
Another bully is beating up a boy against a chain link fence.


The boy on the ground is told by the bully above him, “Your choice, man. You can walk away now and you won’t get your ass kicked.”
Seeing the other bully continue to punch the kid at the fence, the boy on the ground gets up and the bully prepares to knock him out, “You should’ve stayed down, Jack!”
Blackout....
...Black screen. “Jack! Jack! Jack!”
Jack is on the beach just staring out to the water; he’s somewhere else.
Finally he snaps out of it and realizes Charlie is calling for him.

Charlie tells him there’s someone out there, “The current...There’s someone out there, look! I woke up and just…I don’t swim! I don’t swim.”
You can faintly hear a woman calling for help. Someone is drowning and Jack dives in to help.
He can’t seem to locate the person in the water; the waves are blocking his view.  He dives under for a better look.
Jack comes up with Boone. He tells Boone he’s okay and to take deep breaths. "Just breathe. Just breathe.”
Boone-“Did you get her? There was a woman…”
Jack looks back and sees the drowning woman.
Boone-“We gotta go back.”
Jack is torn with concern.
Kate and Charlie take Boone from Jack and Jack heads back in for the “Someone else still out there.”   Kate looks confused.

Boone sits staring out to the water. He looks annoyed as he looks back at Jack.

Jack asks Kate, "What’d they say? Who was she?”
Kate reveals her name was Joanna. She wasn’t supposed to be on the plane. Joanna was scuba diving off the barrier reef, got an ear infection and the doctor grounded her for two days. She bumped her flight; that’s how she ended up with them.
Jack feels bad, “She was just swimming this morning, got caught in a riptide. We’ve been here 6 days and I never talked to her, I never said a word to her. There were 47 of us and I never said a single word to her.
Kate-“You tried.”
Jack-“No I didn’t…I thought I could bring him back and still have the time...and I was there, in the water…I didn’t try. I decided not to go after her.”
Beyond Kate Jack sees a man in a dark suit standing in the water. Then the man disappears.
Jack asks Kate if she saw the man standing in the water, “You didn’t see that?”
Kate asks him when the last time he slept was.

Vincent {collar} plays with a tennis ball on the beach.
Walt brushes his teeth with Aloe plant. Michael asks him who taught him that.
Walt-“Sun. The Korean lady.”
Michael advises Walt not to swallow the Ocean water; it will make him thirsty. Michael gets annoyed by the boy asking "why?"  
Sun is watching them from a distance.

Jin {Watch} comments about her lips, “You really need water.”
Sun tells him she’s all right and asks “When will someone tell them what to do?”
She doesn’t think anyone is coming.
Jin-“Someone will come.”
Sun-“The others, they ignore us…If we tried harder to communicate…”
Jin insists they’ll be fine. They don’t need anyone else as he’ll tell her what to do.
Sun is annoyed.





Shannon {wearing flip flops} asks Sawyer if he’s got it or what.
Sawyer who is sitting comfortably in a chair, reading looks up at her, “You’re in my light, Sticks.”

She wonders what they hell is lightsticks.
He clarifies “Light comma Sticks.” As in those legs of hers.
While she really loves her new nickname she wants… Sawyer tells her to calm down. He’s got her bug spray; It even has aloe. She’s concerned about sand fleas. She’s asks him how much. {She is scratching herself}.
Sawyer-“Your money’s no good here.”
Yep, he wants something; “5 grand.”
He was negotiating, “I can take an I.O.U... Something tells me you’re good…for it.”
Shannon is annoyed, throws the can at him and walks away. Sawyer smiles.

Kate is sorting clothes. Claire asks if she’s found a hairbrush in there; she’s looked through 20 suitcases and found "nothing".
Claire gets lightheaded, she blames the heat, “And I’m pregnant.”
Kate-“Really?”
Claire asks Kate if she’s a Gemini.
Yep, she is.
Claire thought so, “Restless. Passionate.” She goes on sharing that everyone thinks astrology is just a load of crap, “It’s just because they don’t get it. I can do you chart if you want to...or not.” Seeing as how Kate responded.

Hurley runs over to talk to Jack. He notices how he looks remarks, “Whoa! You look tired, brother.”
Hurley’s there to tell him they got a problem. There’s only 18 bottles in the red suitcase. {Water} People just took what they needed because they were supposed to be rescued but they weren’t.

Charlie-“Even if we divvied it up, split the bottle in half there wouldn’t be enough for 47 people.
Jack corrects him, “46. There’s 46 of us now.”
People are gonna freak out when they find out. Plus the boar’s running low until they catch another one. Hurley suggests they make a water finding stick. The guys are looking for Jack’s guidance but he doesn’t know what to do.
Hurley-“Maybe the dog can find water?”
Charlie suggests putting the suitcase in the tent; it's best if no one knows how little is left. Hurley’s going on about dogs finding pot and bombs, etc.
Charlie suggests a couple of things to Jack until Jack decides what to do.
Jack snaps, “I’m not deciding anything.”   This surprises the boys.
Hurley-“Why not?”  Jack just walks away from them.
{No Flash Whoosh here!}
The sound of ice cubes in a glass.
Christian,sitting in a chair having a cocktail, sees young Jack standing in the doorway.
Christian-“You wanna come in?” {You can hear the tic-toc of the clock}
Jack, with his bruised eye tells dad that a couple of guys jumped Marc Silverman.
Christian-“But they didn’t jump you”
He gets up to mix another drink and tells Jack he had a boy on his table today, about a year younger than Jack, “He had a bad heart. It got real hairy real fast. Everybody’s looking at your old man to make decisions. And I was able to make those decisions because at the end of the day…after the boy died…I was able to wash my hands and come home to dinner…You know, watch a little Carol Burnett, laugh till my sides hurt.  And how can I do that? Hmm? I mean, even when I fail…{He whispers} how do I do that, Jack?  Cause I have what it takes. Don’t choose, Jack. Don’t decide. You don’t wanna be a hero. You don’t want to try and save everyone. Because when you fail…you just don’t have what it takes.”
{Flash Whoosh}
Tired Jack just stares.
A voice says, “Why didn’t you leave me?”
Pissed Boone is talking to him. {White shirt, black cord with a cross}
Jack-“Not now, man.”
Boone feels he could have made it back, “I told you to leave me.”
Jack-“You were drowning.”
Boone feels Jack should have saved her.
Irritated Jack replies, “But I didn’t save her. And neither did you.”
Boone doesn’t let it go, “You think you’re all noble and heroic for coming after me? I was fine! You’re not the only one who knows what to do around here, you know that? I run a business!...Who appointed you our savior? What gives you the right…Look at me! Hey, I’m talking to you! Look at me, Jack!”
Something has caught Jack’s attention over Boone’s shoulder. It’s Christian. Jack follows Christian, who has turned and walked away.
Boone is pissed Jack ran off.

Jack runs after him into the jungle and stops when he sees Christian stand there with his back to Jack. As Jack reaches out to touch him Christian turns to face him.  Confused Jack falls back, “Dad?” Christian walks on.
{Flash Whoosh}
It's raining.
Jack looks out the window.{Reflection}
“Your father’s gone, Jack. Did you hear what I said?”
Jack, not fazed by his mother’s comment says, “He’ll be back.”
Mom tells him this time it’s different…I want you to bring him back.”
Jack seems amused, “He hasn’t talked to me in two months, mom.”
Mom mentions Jack hasn’t talked to him in two months.
Jack-“He doesn’t want me to bring him back” {Jack has no wedding ring; we're sure to see Jack's left hand here.}
His mom is pissed because Christian doesn’t have friends anymore, “Why do you think that is?...He was right about you…You don’t understand the pressure that he’s under…”
Jack understands pressure.
Mom calms downs, “Jack, please. You know how he gets. He doesn’t…he won’t take care of himself. You have to go after him.”
Jack apologizes, he can’t.
Mom’s pisses again, “I can’t…You don’t get to say I can’t. Not after what you did!”
Jack looks troubled.
Mom stresses, ”You bring your father home, Jack.”
They’re both a bit teary eyed.
Jack-“Where is he?”
Mom brings herself to say, “Australia.”
{No flash whoosh}
Jack gets up from the jungle floor and heads into the jungle.

Walt runs through the beach camp to Kate, informing her, “That pregnant lady fell down.”
Charlie and Michael carry unconscious Claire to a tent.  Kate asks if she’s breathing, “Let’s get her inside.”
Kate tries to wake her up.
Very slowly Claire comes around. Kate tells Charlie Claire needs water.
Kate tells Claire not to move; she thinks she has a fever.
Charlie discovers the suitcase with the water is gone, “Someone stole it!” {Note they have huge containers and coolers to store things in. Remarkable! Lol}

Kate, Sayid and John at the beach.
Locke-“Where is the Doctor?”  {All three are wearing white shirts}
Kate says no one knows, “No one can find him.”
Sayid notes that keeping the last of the water supply in one place is foolish.
Kate offers to go into the jungle to find fresh water.  Protective Sayid says she’s not going alone.
Locke-“When the others find out that the water is gone it’s gonna get ugly. And when they find out some one pinched it, it’s gonna get uglier…I’ll go. The camp needs you two here especially with the doctor gone. And besides, I know where to look.”
He smiles proudly. {Interesting hmmm? He knows where to look, why didn't he mention it earlier, before they were running out of water?}
Jack runs aimlessly through the jungle searching…
”Where are you?...Where are you?...Where are you?!”





“The maid said he hasn’t used the bed in the past three days.”


 He didn’t rent a car from the concierge either.
Jack is in Christian’s hotel room in Australia.
{Meds, ashtray, cigarettes, alcohol, USA TODAY}
{Mirror}



The manager doesn’t think Christian rented a car at all, “There was an incident a few nights ago, here at the hotel bar. I had to get security to escort your father to his room.”
Jack wonders what this has to do with renting a car.







Reluctantly the manager reveals that he didn’t think any rent agent would lease his father a car in his condition.
Jack gets defensive, “My father is the Chief of Surgery.”




The manager apologizes.




Jack picks up Christian’s wallet, “Who leaves a wallet?”  {No I.D.}

The manager suggests Jack talk to the police.
Confused Jack asks, “Where are you?”










In the jungle Jack still searches.
He’s sees Christian has his back to Jack again.
Jack takes off after him.









 Christian walks quickly into the jungle. {Many different sounds are happening. Do you hear any monster 'clicking' at all?}

Christian disappears. Jack continues to frantically search.
Christian appears behind Jack; again with his back to him.
Jack runs after him but ends up rolling down a hill and over a cliff!
He manages to hang on to a vine and tries desperately to climb up, but to no avail.   He starts slipping. A hand reaches over the side.  It’s Locke, right there to save him! {It’s a good thing he's out looking for water. Lol}
Locke asks Jack if he’s okay and Jack just breaks down in laughter.

Charlie brings sleeping sick Claire water.   Claire’s been out a couple of hours.   She drinks the tiny bit of water and thanks him for it. Charlie comments that there would be more water if someone hadn’t stolen it. Claire only asks if Jack’s back yet.
Charlie says no, “No one’s seen him. But I wouldn’t worry.  Good ol Mr. Locke’s gone in to the jungle to get some water for ya.”
Claire-“Great. Our only hunter’s gonna get eaten just so he can get the pregnant girl some more water.”
Charlie tells love not to worry, “You tell me who’d you rather meet in a dark alley?  Whatever’s out there or that geezer with his four hundred knives? I mean, who packs four hundred knives? Personally I can only have space for two hundred, three hundred at most.”
This makes Claire giggle.
She wonders “When are they gonna rescue us?”
Charlie, with his “Living is easy with eyes closed” tat and “LATE” on his left hand fingers, tells her with total reassurance, “Soon.”
Claire thanks Charlie; she feels people don’t seem to look her in the eye there.She thinks she scares them; the baby, “It’s like I’m this time bomb of responsibility just waiting to go off.”
Charlie-“You don’t scare me.”

Hurley runs over to tell Sayid and Kate that the Chinese people have water. Sayid asks Sun repeatedly and loudly where she got her bottle from.
Kate tells him “She’s doesn’t understand you.”
Sayid feels she absolutely understands him. He asks, “Did you steal this water?”
Sun replies in Korean.  Angry Jin confronts Sayid in Korean.
Kate tells Jin to take it easy, “We just want to talk, all right.”
Kate asks him about the water bottle, “Who gave you this?”
Angry Jin understands and points directly at Sawyer.  Kate is about to go over to Sawyer but Sayid stops her because he doesn’t see the water, “If you go after him now he’ll give you nothing. But if you wait, a rat will always lead you to its hole.”

Someone walks through the jungle. It’s Sawyer going to uncover his stash. He grabs a pack of cigarettes.  Kate {White shirt} tackles Sawyer {Black shirt}; she's ends up on top of him.
Sawyer says "It’s about time…I made this birthday wish 4 years ago" {HOLY SHIT!}
Sayid demands he give them the water now. Kate goes through his stash. Sayid knows he gave two bottles of water to the Koreans.
Sawyer didn’t steal it, “I don’t give nothin to nobody.”
Kate confirms its not there. Sawyer traded Mr. Miagi his water for a fish he caught. “We worked it out caveman style.”
Sawyer tells Freckles water has no value. It’s gonna rain sooner or later, after all he’s an optimist. Sawyer tosses Kate the Marshal’s badge seeing as she’s the new sheriff in town, might as well make it official.











 ''Locke lets water  drip off a leaf into his water bottle.
Jack- “How are they?...The others.”
Locke tells Jack they’re thirsty, hungry, waiting to be rescued, “And they need someone to tell them what to do.”
Jack feels he can’t because he’s not a leader.
Locke-“And yet they all treat you like one.”
Jack doesn’t know how to help them, “I’ll fail…I don’t have what it takes.”
Locke-“Why are you out here, Jack?”
Jack thinks he’s going crazy.
Locke informs him he’s not going crazy, “No. Crazy people don’t know they’re going crazy, they think they’re getting saner.
Locke sits and again asks Jack, “Why are you out here?”
Jack’s chasing something, someone.
Locke brightens up, “Ah, the White Rabbit. Alice in Wonderland.”
Jack scoffs, “Wonderland…Cause who I’m chasing…He’s not there.”
Jack confirms he sees him, “But he’s not there.”
Locke asks Jack if he came to him with the same things what would his opinion as a Doctor be. Jack would call it a hallucination, result of dehydration, post traumatic stress, not getting more than two hours of sleep a night for the past week, all of the above.
Locke says than Jack must be hallucinating, “But what if you’re not.”
Jack-“Then we’re all in a lot of trouble.”

Locke goes on to explain he’s just an “ordinary man. Meat and potatoes. I live in the real world. I’m not a real big believer in magic. But this place is different. Special. The others don’t wanna talk about it because it scares them. But we all know it. We all feel it. Is your White Rabbit a hallucination? Probably. But, what if everything that happened here, happened for a reason? What if this person that you’re chasing is really here?”

Jack feels that’s impossible.”  
John-“Even if it is, let's say it’s not.”
Jack asks what happens when he catches him.
John doesn’t know, “But I’ve looked in to the eye of this island…and what I saw…was beautiful.” He smiles.
John gets up to find some more water. He doesn’t want Jack to go with him because Jack needs to finish what he started.
Jack- ”Why?”
John-“Because a leader can’t lead until he knows where he’s going.” {Gotta love those Locke pearls!} John heads in to the jungle.

Night:
Jack sits staring into a camp fire. Footsteps echoing.
“The police found him in an alley in Kings Cross. Our tox screen showed a blood alcohol content, which for a man his size probably brought on myocardial infarction - a sizable and fatal heart-attack.”   Says the coroner. {We don't have a 'date' for this at all. We don't see Jack's left hand at all here, to see if there's a wedding ring on it, We don't know if Jack had been to Australia other times to retrieve his dad, we know now that Christian has reason to go to Australia every so often (Claire and Claire's mom) again keep it in mind}

The coroner does not appear to have a thick Australian accent. He leads Jack into the tiny shiny room with the body bag.
Jack ID's is dad, “That’s him.”
He cries. {This scene is bathed in blue}




Jack cries sitting by fire. We hear ice cubes in glass clanking and a figure walks behind Jack.

The sound of snapped twigs. Jack follows the sound.

He finds the caves with fresh running water! There are dolls strewn about. He takes one out of the water. {Now, this is the shit that freaks me out! In the caves, Jack sees a doll in the water, dolls around the ground, stuff, plane wreckage, Christian’s casket!! HOLD THE PHONE!!! I wasn't blown away by the casket being there (okay, maybe a little), I was AMAZED to see Oceanic plane wreckage in the cave- complete with Dharma logo/bagua on it, OLD OCEANIC PLANE WRECKAGE INSIDE THE CAVE! It's a friggin' CAVE, it didn't fall into it from their crash! WHO put it there? How many Oceanic planes with "possible" Dharma logo's crash on that island, in that exact spot and end up inside a cave!?!?!?}
A woman’s voice announces “Final boarding call for Oceanic airlines flight 1 2 5 Non- stop to Singapore leaving from gate14. All ticketed passengers…”
Jack is at the ticket counter where Krissy is telling him that they won’t put it on the plane, “Our policy says the body must have the proper documentation. There’s just no latitude.”
Jack pleads with Krissy to get the coffin to LAX.
Jack-“You can’t do this to me. I’m ready to go now.”
Krissy- “Perhaps another carrier…”
Jack yells “NO!...I want you to listen to me OK, because I’m asking you a favor.”
Jack is standing in front of her in the same suit he’s wearing to his father’s funeral; he’s asking her for a favor. Jack is getting emotional, “In 16 hours I need to land in LAX. And I need that coffin to clear customs because there’s gonna be a hearse waiting there. And I need that hearse to take me and that coffin to a cemetery. Why? Why, Krissy can’t I just bring him to a funeral home and make all the arrangements why can’t I really take my time with it? Because…because I need it to be done. I need it to be over. I just…I need to bury my father.”
Jin is on line. {Jack's eye color, dark navy blue, not his natural color.}
Inside the cave Jack opens the coffin. It’s empty! In anger he smashes up the coffin.
Each THUD is heard in the jungle.

Night on the beach, the survivors sit by campfires.
Three bottles of water are brought by sleeping Claire. Boone is giving Claire water.
Claire-“How did you get…”
Boone-“Shhh.”
Charlie exposes Boone as the thief.
Michael asks where Boone hid it. Charlie is upset because Claire could have died.
Boone says he tried to give some to her sooner but it got out of hand, ”No one would have understood.” They’re all pissed at him.

Jack yells for everyone to leave him alone. “It's been six days...and we’re all still waiting. Waiting for someone to come. But what if they don’t?   We have to stop waiting. We need to start figuring things out. A woman died this morning just going for a swim.   And he tried to save her and now you’re about to crucify him?   We can’t to ‘this’.  Every man for himself is not gonna work.   It’s time to start organizing. We need to figure out how we’re gonna survive here.   Now, I found water, fresh water up in the valley. I’ll take a group in at first light.   If you don’t want to come, then find another way to contribute. Last week most of us were strangers, but we’re all here now. And god knows how long we’re gonna be here. But if we can’t live together…we’re gonna die alone.”

Everyone shares water.
Sun thanks Jin for getting her water today.   Jin feels that’s what husbands do.
Walt is sleeping. Michael gives Vincent water.
Boone is sitting alone when Sawyer comes up and asks him how it feels, “Taking my place on top of everyone’s most hated list. Sucks, don’t it?”
Jack sits alone, Kate brings him water. She asks where he was today. He had to take care of a few things.
Kate-“That’s all I’m gonna get, huh?”
Jack reveals his father died in Sydney.
Kate is sorry.
Jack-“Yeah…I’m sorry too.”




White Rabbit is a GREAT episode totally revolving around emotions in life; past pain and how they may shape a part of our future self.  Is this foreshadowing for the season 3 finale?   Jack makes a decision; tries to save everybody, to be a hero and ultimately CANNOT live with it.

Things to note…Questions to ask…
Please note: The “Flash Whoosh" isn’t heard every time we change perspectives
* Boone, a licensed life guard is drowning.
* Water.
* Jack has 4 scratches on his face; 2 on each side. Kate has 4 all on the same side.
* Mirror. Window. Reflection. See. Look.
* Watch. Guard.
* Language. Communicate. Talk. Understand.
* Gone. Missing. Stole. Dead
* Sleep. Slept. Unconscious. Hallucinations. Light headed. Crazy. Magic.
* Eye color changes.
* Heart.
* ID. Identity.
* Roles. Husband, Hunter, Lifeguard, Doctor, Thief, Sheriff.
* Based on Mrs. Shephard’s chat with Jack, I feel we discover Christian makes these rash trips to Australia often. But how often?
* Where’s the Doctor? No one can find him…Which lost Doctor, Jack or Christian?
* “Where are you?” Jack asks this in the Flash and on the “Island”. Things are blurred together.
* Locke-“What if that person is really here?”
* Trading. Negotiate. Supply stash. Value. No Value. {Can't find a hairbrush}
* Do Sawyer and Kate know each other a long time? Have they done this before? He made this birthday wish 4 years ago. Interesting.
* This episode has a very weird amount of obvious breathing sounds.
* Locke knows where to look for water.
* OLD OCEANIC PLANE WRECKAGE ALREADY INSIDE THE CAVE.
* They are in a “wonderland” of sorts.
* The coffin is empty. Where’s his father? Is this a metaphor of some sort?

Vocabulary and Research…
* White Rabbit. Alice in wonderland is a story about Alice’s journey into the rabbit hole, where she meets strange people, bizarre happenings and a living-life size chess game. All this takes place not in reality but while she is sleeping.
* Watership Down- A heroic fantasy novel about rabbits. One rabbit is a “seer”. A couple of rabbits try to convince the rest to evacuate due to imminent destruction. The bunnies have many roles and there are themes of heroism, religion, political issues, exile, community and survival. {Water-Ship-Down}
* A divining rod (aka dowsing rod or witching rod) is an apparatus used in dowsing. Claims to be able to find ground water, oil, and other mineral resources by non-scientific means. Expert dowsers are allegedly capable of dowsing exact depth measurements of water veins, electromagnetism, currents and telluric phenomena. They are also allegedly capable of measuring blood toxicity, white cells, and sugar levels, and detecting human illness and health. Expert dowsers are allegedly not limited to any specific time and space, claiming the ability to dowse any material at any given time from any location.
* Astrological signs represent twelve equal segments or divisions of the zodiac. According to astrology, celestial phenomena reflect or govern human activity on the principle of " as above, so below”, so that the twelve signs are held to represent twelve basic personality types or characteristic modes of expression.
- Gemini (The Twins) (mutable, air, personal): It is the third astrological sign. Gemini is ruled by the planet Mercury. Gemini is considered a "masculine", positive (extrovert) sign. The tropical duration of Gemini is May 21 to June 20.
* Water. Chemical substance essential for the survival of all known forms of life. In typical usage, water refers only to its liquid form/state, but the substance also has a solid state, ice, and a gaseous state, water vapor or steam..
-Water is a life force.




Jack is dealing with this "role" of leadership.  He doubts his abilities because of dear old dad. I always keep track of little things in "Flashes" because we're never told a time line.  In this case how many locations has Jack had to go to and get Christian from in his life, and how many times?  This seems to be a pattern with Christian. We don't know what Jack did to his father, but we do know he's still the chief of surgery when Jack goes to this hotel.  I feel Christian's dialog with young Jack is very telling and what Jack discovers in the caves is very telling (Not the fresh water either).   Jack is lost and is searching for something…something very deep. I think they all are.
So, is this why they’re all really there? But I must ask…is this place real or fantasy?

Love to all who are "LOST"™

Posted on MySpace June, 2007

Disclaimer: I never claim to know everything about the show and my thoughts by no means make me right! The things I share here are my views and/or opinions. I don't claim to catch every single detail either! You all know I hate spoilers! And I stand clear of reading certain sites as to not take me off my own course of research. The one thing I don't need to do here is rehash all of the obvious clues from an episode; we all know what they are. Understood? Let the fun begin! I'll only note things that I know come up as clues later, but need to be noted when they first show up and things I find that will be of importance.

Expose.

Let's talk about LOST! EXPOSE

Blurred/jostled visual of Nikki running through the jungle with her bag. She stops to dig a hole and bury something, covers it and runs off!

In a strip club we’re introduced to sexy pole dancing Nikki. She begins her dance on stage 3; in a white coat and hat. She is the 'Pride of St. Paul', Corvette. She strips down to her diamond bikini. From her pole she keeps her eye on a man who heads into a back office.
In the office that man opens a suitcase filled with cash.
Corvette says "That's the money for the orphanage. Which means Mr. LaShade, you're the Cobra." {LaShade,Shady}
The Cobra turns around from his 2 video monitors and says "Sorry baby. It's just business."

Corvette realizes, "All this time it was you."
He has to eliminate her. She karate chops a thug, says her catch phrase, "Razzle Dazzle."
The Cobra shoots her 2x anyway. {1 of the pics on the wall looks similar to the one on the Girls of Fiji magazine from Sawyers stash!!}
Cobra fires 1 more shot into her. Autumn and Crystal run in.
Cobra-"Bad news. Corvette was working for the Cobra. But fear not, he will pay."
This was the last shot filmed for the TV show, EXPOSE.
"CUT."
Billy Dee Williams gives Nikki a hand up. {Note: silver platter} She walks through the sound stage. This was a series wrap on Corvette.{Note the sign says EXPOSE. Season 4}
Howard tells her, "You know you don't need to die. We can bring you back next season."
She only had a guest starring role but they could have her come back. He suggests Corvette could have been wearing a bullet proof vest...Bullet proof breast. Her work is done there, but she will not be leaving Sydney, "I love you."
He loves her too.

Hurley and Sawyer play Ping Pong.
Hurley wins, "Best out of 5."
Sawyer-"Now we're going best out of 7."
Nikki falls out of the jungle; collapses and the guys run over to her. Nikki in her lack of breath says something but they can't make out what she said. Sawyer tells Hurley to get some water; Get help. Sawyer gets up to look into the jungle to see if anything else is going on. Hurley never got up to get the water.
Sawyer- "What are you doing? Get moving!"
Hurley-"Dude. Nikki's dead."
Sawyer-"Who the hell's Nikki?"

84 Days Ago

Nikki and Howard are eating breakfast frittatas prepared by his new chef Paulo. {Note: crystal knick knack on the table.} Howard introduces Paulo to his new fan, Nikki. She compliments his cooking.
Paulo feels "The secret is the shaved truffles. Lucky for you they're in season." {Paulo white uniform, black shoes.} Paulo showed up at Howard's door every day until he would hire him.
Howard- "He is the Wolfgang Puck of Brazil."
Howard presents Nikki with the bread basket, "Here try one of these homemade rolls." He gives her a diamond bracelet that was hidden in the basket.
Nikki- "It's beautiful." {Nikki's black nails}
Howard tells her he realizes it's not a ring, not yet, "But when my wife..." He stops right there as he's having a heart attack.

Nikki calls out for Paulo. He checks Howard's pulse and declares "He's gone."
Nikki doesn't waste a second; she rips the key from around his neck. Annoyed Nikki tells Paulo, "I would have loved it if you could have figured out a way where I didn't have to eat the same food as him."
They head into the closet to open the safe.
Paulo questions, "So, nobody else knows about this thing?"
Nikki- "Everything in here is way off the books."
She removes a panel with neckties to reveal the safe. Paulo wants to light up a cigarette but she reminds him that they don't want to leave any evidence behind. "We poisoned him Paulo. Let’s not poison ourselves."
Once inside the safe she recovers a Matryoshka doll and proudly says “Razzle Freakin Dazzle"

Hurley, Sawyer, Charlie, Jin and Sun sit around Nikki's body. They’re trying to figure out what happened to her. Hurley tells them she has no gunshot wound, no knife wound, no polar bear bite. {These are the fatal injuries he mentions!}
Sun wonders, "Maybe it was something she ate?"
Charlie-"Maybe she was poisoned?"
Sun suggests checking the food supply to see if anyone else is sick. Charlie wearing the big cross on his chest shirt; checks Nikki's nails; she has gunk under her finger nails.
Charlie asks Sawyer where he found her. {Sawyer's reaction was of "Oh yeah. That makes sense"}
But he tells Charlie –"Right here. She stumbled out of the jungle, face planted, said something like ply wood, and then, sayonara."
Hurley thinks she said “Power lines.”
Sawyer doesn't know what she said, "She was 5 seconds from dying. She probably seeing the light at the end of the tunnel."
"Paulo lies!"
Hurley feels confident that she said "Paulo lies."
He tells Sawyer, "That's her husband or boyfriend or whatever. They live down the beach."
Sawyer wants to know where he is because if he lies, "That might be a good place to start."

80 Days Ago



 In the airport Paulo reads the newspaper aloud to Nikki about the death of English ex pat Howard L. Zuckerman. Headline- Famed Tube Tycoon Dies Of Heart attack. He was the creative force behind hit shows like EXPOSE, STRIKE TEAM ALPHA, and DOCTOR KINCAIDE, ESQUIRE. {2 glasses champagne.} They are pleased they have gotten away with murder.

Paulo is chewing nicotine gum because he quit smoking. {Quit smoking! Paulo wearing is Brazil Sweatshirt/jacket. Opens an EXPOSE script bag to get gum. Brazilian passport. Nesting doll} They toast their new life together.
Shannon and her step Brother Boone make their way through the airport. Shannon is complaining about there being no place to sit. Boone offers her a chair from the restaurant. Pissed off Shannon says, "Good call Boone. Let's just leave. You already screwed us out of seats in first class, why would you be able to find them here?" {By the way, I see Dustin Watchman walking by. Hi Dustin!}
Boone asks permission from Nikki and Paulo for one of their chairs, they say yes.
Shannon has a fit and accuses Boone of flirting with random guys, and walks away.

On the beach Shannon is screaming for Boone! It's the day of the 'Crash'.
Nikki is searching the site for Paulo/bag. We see many familiar and similar images from 'Crash' day; Jin, Jack with Claire, Boone trying to revive Rose, Locke, {whom has contact with Nikki in this version}
Explosions and Nikki's meeting with Arzt.
Arzt is heard asking, "Are we alive? Did we survive? Look at me. Am I okay? Am I okay?" {Apparently he doesn't know the answer to this trick question.}
Boone asks Nikki if she has a pen.
Boone obviously on a quest asks, "Does anybody have a pen?"
Nikki sees Paulo staring out at the water. Her first question to him is, "Where's the bag?"

In the jungle Paulo lays on the ground with his eyes open. Sawyer tells Hurley,”This is the trail."
Hurley asks him what he knows about tracking. {Damn if you’re around someone long enough or often enough, you’re bound to eventually pick it up!}
Jin, Sawyer and Hurley find Paulo.
He's just like Nikki; no wound. Jin says something to Hurley in Korean, trying to show him something and Hurley seems to understand him and replies back.
Sawyer finds a right sneaker in a tree and Paulo's pants are undone.
Sawyer- "Maybe he stepped on something."
Jin looks through the back pack. Sawyers peers into the jungle; he doesn't admit he sees anything to Hurley.
Jin opens Paulo's water bottle and cautious Sawyer runs over tells him, "NO!" and pours it out. Hurley freaks because that's evidence!
Sawyer- "Two people are dead. Did you ever think they might have been poisoned?"
Hurley feels Sawyer's messing up the crime scene.
Sawyer- "Crime scene? There a forensics hatch I don't know about?" {Yes Sawyer. More hatches.}
Jin tells him to stop, "Monster."

75 Days Ago

Nikki and Paulo are fiddling with a pile of suitcases; they're talking about the monster.
Nikki says {as did Danielle} there’s no such thing as monsters. Apparently she's told him this many times. Paulo wonders if it was a dinosaur.
Nikki- "It's not Jurassic Park, Paulo. It's the South Pacific." {Well maybe it Jurassic Park!} He asks her what it was after all she saw the trees move. She doesn't care; she wants him to start focusing! They've been there for 6 days, the coast guard is going to get there any second, and she just wants the script bag.
Ethan asks them if they lost their luggage. He found some stuff, pants or a sweatshirt; he can help them find some that fit. {WTF? And yes, he's wearing the Wisconsin sweatshirt. Is he the wardrobe master?}
Nikki share with Ethan that Paulo lost his nicotine gum. Ethan cleverly and conveniently points them inland where they may have more luck. He explains the plane split apart so some of the stuff may have rained down in there. Paulo doesn't want to go into the jungle.
Arzt the 'town crier' tells everyone,”Boone! Boone took the water."
We witness Jack's Live Together, Die Alone speech, again.
Remember, he found water in the valley.

At Nikki's body:
Hurley, Jin and Sawyer carry Paulo's body to the cemetery; Hurley announces he's with Jin on the "Monster".
Sawyer comments sarcastically, "Yeah. Because that makes the most sense."
Hurley-"Locke said when Eko died his last words were, you’re next. And Nikki and Paulo were with them. He was talking about them."
Sawyer tells him he wasn't saying that about them. He was saying it as in 'You're all next.' The way Sawyer sees it they need to "find out whatever we can about these Jabonies...Nina and Pablo."
Hurley tells him to show respect; he knows their names.
Sawyer- "Whatever Hugo."
They head off to their tent; they better get some shovels too. The 2 bodies are left there uncovered, staring at the sky. {Damn, dry eyes! Visine, anyone?!}

57 Days Ago


Nikki is going to flirt her way in her “red top” to get info from Dr.Arzt. He has built himself a fucking LAB; complete with a shit load of peanut butter jars and containers! He's studying millipedes or centipedes and all kinds of creepy crawlies.
Nikki- "You're a scientist
Arzt proudly replies, "And and educator."
Since they got there HE discovered 20 new species, "I'm gonna be the next Charles Darwin."
Nikki picks up a blue topped jar that's holding the very dangerous Latrodectus Regina, Medusa Spider! {Oooooh-aaaaahhh} Her pheromones are very strong; one whiff and every male of the species would be there in seconds. {Is this one of his discoveries? There's no such thing as a Medusa Spider as far as we know. Is this an 'Island' discovery? He says "They call it the Medusa Spider." And if it's so dangerous, shouldn't it be in a jar with a RED top?! LOL}

Nikki asks him to explain trajectories so she can figure out where her luggage may have landed. He adjusts his handsome necktie obviously honored she asked him for help. He is going to draw a map. {Of course!}

Nikki and Paulo trek out into the jungle using a Jr. High school teachers hand drawn map. Nikki accuses Paulo of being jealous of Leslie.
Sarcastic Nikki says, "His spiders turn me on… I had to sleep with him."
Paulo brings up that she slept with Zuckerman, but Nikki reminds him she did that for "Us."
Paulo apologizes to her, "I don't trust that guy. We should have gone to Ethan. He would have helped."
Nikki points out the drug plane that's hanging off the cliff.
Paulo-"Another plane. Looks like it's been here a while."
She tries to get him to go up there, "Maybe there's a radio or something."
Paulo-"Are you insane. If I go up there, that thing's gonna fall."
{Paulo knows it's gonna fall. Boone and Locke didn't?! Where is the common sense?}
She tells him he's not gonna fall.
Paulo asks her if she wants him to die. "Come on. Let’s keep moving."

Nikki now points out the hatch that in the ground. {She's 2 for 2!} Paulo uses a rock to help open it; he wants to go check it out.
Nikk-"So, our carry on bag fell from the sky, opened a man hole, crawled inside, closed the doors behind itself? You don't' wanna climb up to a plane, but you wanna climb down a ladder into a dark tunnel. I don't think so."
Sawyer rummages through Nikki and Paulo stuff. Hurley tells him to be careful.
Sawyer- "Why? They don't live here anymore."
Charlie informs them Sun checked the food, "They're eating the same as us and no one else is sick. Could be a virus."
Hurley-"Dude. Monster." {Very interesting! Hmmmm}

Arzt's bug collection is in Nikki and Paulo’s tent. Butterflies {morphing bug}.
Charlie-"He collected all kinds of creepy crawlies before he exploded.
Hurley- "They must have been friends." {Very interesting. Hmmm?}
Charlie finds Nikki's EXPOSE script. Hurley claims it's only the most awesome hour of TV, ever! He flips through the pages very excited! It's like Baywatch, only better.
Hurley explains-"It's about Autumn and Crystal, two strippers that solve crimes with the help of their suave, smooth talking club owner, Mr. LaShade." {IMPORTANT NOTE- Hurley shows the cast list. Nikki is mentioned, but so is RICK LAPIDUS! Could that be a relative of Frank Lapidus? His name came up in find815!} Her big break must have been in Australia. Hurley reads the reveal that Mr. LaShade is the Cobra. The Cobra is this big bad guy; his identity has been shrouded in mystery for 4 seasons! Sawyer finds a walkie talkie, the same ones the Others use. Sawyer says they must have been working with the Others.




48 Days Ago


Shannon, Kate and Arzt are on the beach.
Artz-"Excuse me. Are you my mother? Because she knows what's best for me. Other than that, I decide."
Nikki {L.A. shirt} and Paulo ask the group what's going on.
Shannon tells her, "Kate and her two boyfriends found a case of guns that fell out of the plane. They decided they didn't really need to tell the camp."
Kate says the case is locked and the key is around Jack's neck; they're safe.
Artz tells Kate, "You're all out of control. The pigs are walking. Huh. The pigs are walking!" {Animal farm} Nikki wants to know where they found the case.

Nikki wants Paulo to dive in the water and find the script bag. She calls him a wuss.
She is manipulating him, "As you had no trouble reminding me I slept with Howie Zuckerman so the least you can do is go for a swim and Kate said they found the case on the bottom.”
Paulo asks her if she didn't need him so bad to get the bag, would they still be together.
Nikki tells him that bag is worth 8 Million Dollars, "Just dive in, Paulo."{Paulo, there's your answer} He dives in and passes the two bodies that are still in the seats and he sees the bag wedged between rocks. He returns to the surface but lies to Nikki telling her there was no bag.
Nikki-"There's nothing down there?"
Just dead bodies. {She is carrying a bag} He dives under.

The staring and still bodies of Nikki and Paulo at the graves:
Charlie, Jin, Sun and Hurley wonder if they were working with the Others. How?
Sawyer-"Like Michael."
The Others could be out there waiting to "get us."
Hurley tells him very nonchalant that he was with the Others two weeks ago. They're on the total other side of the island." Then who dragged Sun into the jungle?
Sun-"The Others came into our camp. They grabbed me; put a bag over my head. And if I hadn't gotten away, they would have killed me."
Sawyer has a gun and he offers to go see if "I can see any sign of them. I'll do a perimeter sweep." Sawyer says he got the gun off one of 'them' and he was gonna let the camp know about the gun, “Right Now."
Hurley asks what a perimeter sweep is.
Charlie asks Sun if they should "Cover them up?" Yes.

32 Days Ago

Paulo is on the beach at night with the script bag. He pops two pieces of Nicotine gum. {It's been 32 days! Does he still need the nicotine gum that badly?} He starts digging a hole.
Locke happens upon him and say, "Nice night."
Paulo hides the nesting dolls behind him and says he's doing nothing.
Locke says it looks like he's digging a hole, "Every man's entitled to his secrets Paulo, but can I give you a piece of advice?...You should put the shovel away and save yourself some trouble...Things don't stay buried on this island. The beach is eroding. Winter's coming. High tide. Whatever it is your hiding, make sure you pick a spot that won't wash away. See you back at camp."

Paulo climbs down the ladder into the Pearl Station. {Has a flashlight} He hides the nesting dolls in the toilet tank that's filled with water. {Number 22}
A voice is heard asking, "Who left this open?"
It's Ben and Juliet dressed in 'Others' garb with no shoes.
Juliet tells Ben that Tom was down here a couple of days ago. We hear Ben reply to her, "Have him cover it with a plank."
Paulo, hiding, shuts the bathrooms pocket door and watches them through the crack.
Ben tunes monitor 5 and we see Jack in the Swan hatch. Juliet remarks that's Shepherd; he's cute. Ben and Juliet have the 'surgery' conversation. Ben feels he can convince him to do the surgery, "The same way I get anybody to do anything. I find out what he's emotionally invested in, and I exploit it.” {Hmmm…Like taking Walt from Michael, maybe?}
Juliet- "We just grab all three of them? Ford and Austen too?"
No.Ben says they need to "Come to us." They're going to do that, using Michael of course.
Juliet- "This place gives me the creeps."
And they leave.
Paulo takes the walkie they left behind.{With all the camera's everywhere, wouldn't they know where everyone was wandering about to and from?!}

Hurley tells Desmond about Nikki and Paulo. He wants Des to use his psychic powers to see what happened. Of course he can't because it conveniently doesn't work like that. He only sees Flashes. {Yeah, so does everybody else!}
Hurley- "As far as superpowers go, yours is kind of lame.”
Desmond says he saw her with his mate this morning, "Your boy Sawyer."
Nikki was yelling at him, right before she died. {At this point it seems like Des's 'power' really only works when he knows it can get him closer to Penny. Manipulating Charlie gets him closer to Penny.}

Vincent {No collar} is sniffing around the blanket covered bodies of Nikki and Paulo.
Hurley-"Vincent! Dude!" The dog pulls the blankets off of them.
Charlie feels that Des seeing Sawyer and Nikki fighting doesn't prove anything. Hurley wonders why Sawyer is gung-ho about investigating this.
Sun states Sawyer's not a murderer, "He went all the way across the island to help Michael."
Sun insists it's the Others. Charlie comes clean about Sun's abduction. He tells her it was he who took her not the Others. After Locke hit him he just wasn't himself. Sawyer told him he could get even by helping steal the guns so they just made it look like the Others, "I didn't mean to hurt you." She walks away. Charlie is sorry.

9 Days Ago

Locke asks the group at the beach kitchen/pantry who wants to go to the Pearl Station. The computer there could help find "Our people." Nikki wants to go.
Inside the Pearl Station we see the gang talking about the monitors.

Paulo is in the bathroom retrieving the nesting dolls from the toilet tank.
We can hear Dr. Mark Wickmund's voice coming from the video.
Nikki talks about connecting to other hatches, etc.. Paulo opens all the nesting dolls to get to the little pouch; he hides the pouch down his pants. He throws the pieces of the nesting dolls back into the tank; flushes the toilet to complete the illusion he actually used the toilet.
Sawyer returns to the graves and the Losties. Hurley demands the gun from him; it's not even loaded.

Hurley tells him to quit lying, Desmond saw him with Nikki.
Sawyer-"Oh, I see what this is. Villagers got themselves some torches."
Sawyer did not kill them but admits he went at it with Nikki this morning because she wanted a gun. He didn't tell them because of the dirt under her nails. She was digging a hole. He saw a fresh mound of dirt near Paulo; she was burying something. Sawyer explains if you take the time to dig a hole right before you die, then what you're hiding probably pretty damn good. Sawyer throws the pouch of diamonds to Sun. He says he had nothing to do with those two.

12 Hours Ago

Nikki and Paulo sit and look out toward the water. Thanksgiving was 2 weeks ago and they missed it. They're gonna miss everything.
Paulo says they're going to find us, “We'll get rescued.”
She's surprised by his optimism. Paulo tells her it's how you look at things, "Like the bag. Maybe not finding it was good for us." Finding it may have torn them apart. He's going to go get them some breakfast. When he gets up, there's his nicotine gum!
Upset Nikki tells Sawyer she wants a gun. He's sitting reading a book, glasses on. "I don't have the guns. The A team took em all."
She knows he kept guns for himself.

Sawyer still wouldn't give her one, "Judging by the fire you're breathing, I got a feeling no good would come of it."
Nikki demands, "Sawyer. Give me a gun."
Des watches all of this.
Sawyer tells her to cool herself off, "And who the hell are you?"

Sawyer at Nikki's grave whispers,”Thanks for nothing" and closes her eyes. {What's he thanking her for?!}
As Sawyer digs a grave, Sun comes over and tells him Charlie told her everything.
Sawyer asks if she'll tell Jin.
Sun-"No...Because then we'd have to dig another grave." {Sawyer has no shirt on! YEAH!} Sun gives him the pouch of diamonds because they are worthless here. She slaps him.

At the graveside service for the two, Hurley does the talking,”We didn't know you very well. And it appears; you killed each other for diamonds. But I know there are good parts to you too. {Check out Sawyer here.} You were always nice to me. And you were a member of the camp. And, I really loved EXPOSE."
Good bye.

Sawyer takes the diamonds out of the pouch and pours them over their bodies, "Rest in peace Nikki and Paulo."

8 Hours Ago

Nikki leads Paulo into the jungle because she has a surprise! She found the diamonds, right here! She knows he has them but he says he doesn't. To prove it she shows him the nicotine gum. She takes out the peanut butter jar with the Medusa Spider and throws the spider at him.
She gives him a spider lesson. They call it the Medusa Spider because one look from Medusa would turn anyone into stone. One bite from this spider will paralyze you for 8 hours. It won't kill you. Only slow your heart rate down to the point even a doctor would have a hard time hearing it beat.
Paulo falls to the ground and becomes paralyzed; it bit him on the neck.
Nikki searches his body, throws the shoe that land in the tree, and finds the diamonds down his pants.
Paulo says he's sorry, he was afraid of losing her. If they “found the diamonds then you wouldn't need me anymore."
The smoke monster sounds!! Then lots of spiders arrive; one bites Nikki’s leg. Knowing what is to come from the bite she runs to bury the diamonds before paralysis kicks in. She runs and Nikki falls out of the jungle into the Ping Pong game.
Nikki- "Paralyzed."

At their graves, Sawyer and Hurley are shoveling dirt onto the bodies. Nikki and Paulo’s EYES OPEN!! The men continue cover the bodies!

EXPOSE IS A GREAT EPISODE! There, I said it! A lot of clues and info in this episode.

Things to Note…Questions to ask...
✈ EYES
✈ Again talk of being dead, but NOT really being dead! Reappearing after supposedly being dead. There it is, again and again and again and again!!!
✈ Sound stages, scripts, props, costumes, cast. Isn't it possible that things are elaborately designed to create illusions and scenes to fool whoever they want to fool?!! Including a death scene?! 
✈Sawyer doesn't know who Nikki is here. Yet when he returns to the island we know he hugs her. Here Nikki is comfortable saying his name when demanding the gun.
✈ Layers!
✈ Brazilians speak Portuguese.
✈ Role. Roll. Play on words.
✈ Does Arzt have a scientific name for a bug that is an undiscovered species?
✈ Fun props to Star Wars! Woooohoooo!
✈ Apparently it's been said it's Gary Troup that gets sucked into the engine the day of the 'crash'.
✈ Shannon and Boone again get mistaken for a 'couple' not 'siblings'
✈ Sit/Seat/Sitting/Chair, why do these always come up in a specific manor?
✈ Jabonies. {Jabronies} Sounds like the word, similar to the one used by Pro-Wrestler 'The Rock'.
✈ Team 'A'. 'Alpha'
✈ JARS/ CONTAINERS. PEANUT BUTTER JARS! WHERE DID THEY ALL COME FROM?
✈ The cobra's most recognizable feature is its hood.
✈ Nicotine, drugs. Addiction
✈ Bug! Bugs! Bugs! Spiders!
✈ Clues to Orphanage. Orphans who need a family!
✈ Eggs. Hatch. Nesting. Carry
✈ Babies. Yes. Babies. And mothers.
✈ Down, down, down…Tunnel, Tube.
✈ Who is the Cobra on the "Island"?
✈ Cold coat weather or Hot Bikini weather? Are we going somewhere with this?
✈ Morphing/transforming.
✈ Regina Queen in Italian. This is not the first time we have hints/clues to Queen. In chess, the Queen is a VERY important player. We cannot look over the importance of a woman in our story. There has to be one just as important as the king. Who could that important woman be? Hmm?!
✈ Since season 1, I have been saying Michael has a connection to the Others/Island.
✈ Here we have proof of something that can cause temporary paralysis. Makes me think of dear ol John.
✈ I read a similar Stephen King story in "Autopsy Room 4". It's the first short story in the collection Everything's Eventual: 14 Dark Tales. A golfer gets bit by a snake. Paralyzed, wakes up in the autopsy room. Yada, Yada, Yada.

Vocabulary and Research...
✦ Nicotine is an alkaloid found in the nightshade family of plants, predominantly in tobacco and coca, and in lower quantities in tomato, potato, eggplant and green pepper. Nicotine is named after the tobacco plant Nicotiana tabacum, which in turn is named after Jean Nicot, French ambassador in Portugal, who sent tobacco and seeds from Brazil to Paris in 1560 and promoted their medicinal use. As a nitrogenous base, nicotine forms salts with acids that are usually solid and water soluble. Nicotine easily penetrates the skin. Nicotine causes mood-altering effects and feelings of relaxation, calmness, and alertness. It is even reported to produce a mildly euphoric state.
✦ EXPOSE-to uncover, make visible, bring to daylight, introduce to. Or, to subject photographic film to light thus ruining it or taking a picture if controlled.

✦ A matryoshka doll  (Russian nested doll) is a set of dolls of decreasing sizes placed one inside another. However, the concept of nested objects was familiar in Russia, having been applied to carved wooden apples and Easter eggs; the first Fabergé egg in 1885, had a nesting of egg, yolk, hen, and crown. Matryoshkas are also used metaphorically, as a design paradigm, known as the "matryoshka principle" or "nested doll principle". It denotes a recognizable relationship of "similar object-within-similar object" that appears in the design of many other natural and man made objects. An example is the Matrioshka brain.
✦ Medusa- In Greek mythology, "guardian, protectress" was a monstrous chthonic female character; gazing upon her could turn onlookers to stone. Her hair of writhing serpents. She was beheaded by the human hero Perseus, who thereafter used her head as a weapon until giving it to the goddess Athena to place on her shield.
✦ Medusa is a fictional superhero published by Marvel Comics. She first appeared in Fantastic 4.

They are classified in the order Araneae, one of several orders within the larger class of arachnids. Trigonotarbids, spider-like a rachnids, were among the oldest known land arthropods. Like spiders, they were terrestrial, respired through book lungs, and walked on eight legs with two additional legs adapted to use around their mouth. However, they were not true spiders, not even ancestral to them, but represented independent offshoots of the Arachnida. True spiders (thin-waisted arachnids) evolved about 400 million years ago, and were among the first species to live on land.
* Spider Myths occur in many cultures. In general it represents the the Sun, or the Great Mother as a weaver of destiny. (Peter BenjaminParker) Spider-Man is a fictional superhero. A bite from an irradiated spider causes a variety of changes in Peter Parker's body, giving him superpowers.

A list of vivid metaphors for impermanence appears in a popular four-line verse at the end of the sūtra:
All conditioned phenomena
Are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, or shadows;
Like drops of dew, or flashes of lightning;
Thusly should they be contemplated.

Expose. For anyone who thought this was a throw away episode I hope I showed you some of the fun and clever ways the creative team still handed us a shit load of very important clues and information!

Love to all who are "LOST"™

Apparently Arzt can't decide if he's a married man or not. Note the disappearing wedding ring.

Disclaimer: I never claim to know everything about the show and my thoughts by no means make me right! The things I share here are my views and/or opinions. I don't claim to catch every single detail either! You all know I hate spoilers! And I stand clear of reading certain sites as to not take me off my own course of research. The one thing I don't need to do here is rehash all of the obvious clues from an episode, we all know what they are. Understood? Good! Let the fun begin! I'll only note things that I know come up as clues later, but need to be noted when they first show up and things I find that will be of importance! It will get very exciting as we progress into the story.
