LOST....*WARNING* Future Spoilers

[CourtasanSatine]

next week proves to be good but will cause plenty of questions(and give us tons to talk about all summer)

 

[alliecats]

What does the preview show? I can't get it to play no matter what I do!! HELP! Dying here.

 

[SillyMe]

Alliecats, it shows Rousseau looking for Sayid, so Charlie goes off to find him. In the meantime, she's talking to Claire and asking to hold the baby. Claire sees the scratches on Rousseau's arm and has a flashback of fighting with her. She must've been the one that kidnapped her while she was pregnant (along with Ethan). Then it skips to Sun finding Claire lying on the ground. Apparently Rousseau hit her over the head and took the baby.

Hmmm...I'm thinking a little of the opposite. I'm thinking Rousseau might have helped Claire escape (from Ethan). Not sure if I've decided if she took the baby to protect it or for evil purposes.

Thanks you guys! Either way, it spoils my theory that Locke decides to give the baby to the Others to keep them from killing all the survivors. Hurley said in that EOnline interview that Locke did something that seemed evil in the finale, and that was the only thing I could think of that would fit. And Locke wouldn't think it was evil, he'd just justify it as something that had to be done for the greater good.

I just need to stop thinking, I guess.

Allie,
Try some of these links:

http://abc.go.com/primetime/lost/index.html?ad=primetime
After you click on this one you'll see a picture of Sun and it says Video Gallery or something like that (near the center of the page) click on the orange arrow box instead of the picture of Sun. Then click the actual link that says sneak peek rather than the picture of Charlie.

This link should work in Windows Media Player (sorry, didn't work, I'll keep trying)

OMG, Allie maybe you're on to something. Rousseau is in front of Claire when she's asking for the baby. Claire is hit on the back of the head (just like Sayid and Boone were hit by Locke)

[SillyMe]

Duh, that was obvious and I missed it. They want you to think she knocked Claire out. She was hit in the back of the head, and her and Claire were facing each other. Doesn't she carry the gun with her, though? She would've seen someone coming up behind Claire and she could've saved Claire. Now I'm confused. Again.

 

[delswife]

Unless Clair turned to run and Danielle clocked her in the back of the skull.

Big help, huh?

I don't think that was a duh moment or even very obvious. I was going along with what Allie said. If Locke does something that appears evil he could be allied with Danielle and help her take Turniphead. I'm not so sure that Locke or Danielle are bad, but will do things for "the greater good". Or, Locke and Danielle could be affected by the illness and the Others might be good. Who the heck knows? I just think the promos have been very misleading in the past (want you to think something happened one way when it really happened another). I was trying to fit my theory in with what Alliecats was thinking. Who knows what the real story is, or even if this is a good clip. I'll be ticked if that clip turns out to be a deleted scene !

Unless Clair turned to run and Danielle clocked her in the back of the skull.

Logical explanation and very likely, IMHO. Danielle's a badas*

 

[skuttle]

Oh wow...just saw the clip. I really don't know what to think. Part of me thinks that Danielle was acting funny around Claire because she lost her own baby so she's drawn to Claire's. I really don't think Danielle is evil...or if she is it's the same way as Locke. I think both Danielle adn Locke understand more about the island than anyone else. I don't want to think that Danielle took the baby, but that preview makes me wonder. I just don't know who else it would have been! Re the flashback...maybe Danielle was saving her and Claire freaked out and scratched because she had just been through so much? I don't know...I don't know!! I can't wait until Wednesday, but at the same time I KNOW we'll be left with lots of questions!!

 

[alliecats]

Thanks, Bengalbelle. I got it to play with Windows. I think that may be deliberately misleading. Rousseau looks covetous, but maybe she just is feeling guilty. BTW, how dare she act surprised because Claire doesn't want her, a virtual ARMED stranger, to hold the baby. Imagine if you had your newborn in the grocery store & someone came up and acted like that. "You don't want me to hold your baby???" Hell no, you crazy lady, I don't even know you and you have a big gun, standing here in the frozen goods.

Anyway, I still think Locke is in on it if Rousseau takes the baby. I think Locke will engineer it at the very least, even if he isn't the actual kidnapper. I still think he is like a general in a war, willing to sacrifice one for what he sees as the good of the group. I can't imagine what else he might do that the audience would view as "evil," unless it's cause the death of one of the group, and hey, he's been there, done that, and bought the t-shirt.

Anyway, this would divide the island because some of them might be like, "do whatever it takes, save us" and others will be outraged. I guess it depends on how scared they get about being killed first. Something major has to go down if Locke & Jack are going to split that big, and if it is not this, it has to be something that involves Locke's ideology (good of many outweighs good of one), clashing with Jack's (everyone must be saved--preferably by him--no matter what). We'll see how full of crap I am on Wednesday.

 

[bigmerle1966]

I still can't get it to work, it will play in fits and starts and sometimes the audio will play but not the video. I know I will be able to watch it at work.

We will just have to watch Wednesday, I think if I try to figure this out any longer my head will explode. Then we will have all summer to re-watch episodes and see if we see any more than we did the first time around.

 

[CourtasanSatine]

the only good thing about reruns,being able to finally figure things out

 

[alliecats]

Duplicate posts.

Just enjoy the picture in the sig.

 

[alliecats]

Trying again, boards are SLOOOOOOOOOOOW.

Spoilers:
05/23 - Hurley (Jorge Garcia) has a LONG & INVOLVING (and hysterical) flashback rife with hidden clues for the loyal viewers. And according to Dominic Monaghan, he (J.G.) also gets the best oneliner of the season. Thing is, you’ll NEED that levity given all the doom and gloom and KA-BOOM that’s going down. [Yes, Sawyer jumps off the raft.] Let's just say the underwater cams come in handy - and the footage is STUNNING! [Locke is not in cahoots with the monster], someone else might be. But let’s just say that Locke and the beasty may no longer be "friends." Dominic Monaghan has seen two-thirds of the finale and said "There are a lot of life and death situations. Everything kind of bottlenecks, you know? Everything comes to a fine point, all the cast kind of re-meet. It's very much a Lost-type show, you know? It fills in all those ideas we've had about Lost. It's a cliffhanger, it's beautiful, it's sad, it's scary." No one has ASKED [Danielle Rousseau] how long she has been on the island. They presumed it had been 16 years based on the radio transmission, but that might not be the case! Damon Lindelof tells me what ends up happening with her is "all relative. And big quotation marks around the relative." Source: Kristin on E!Online

Triple post, sorry, the boards are acting weird!

 

[bengalbelle]

While I'm mulling over the latest spoilers, thought I'd post this interview with our superhero, Jack.

I couldn't get the link to work, so here's the article. It's from zap2it.com
Fox Leads an Island of the 'Lost'
(Sunday, May 22 12:04 AM)
By Kate O'Hare
LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) At home in Hawaii, "Lost" star Matthew Fox gets on the phone. He doesn't exactly sound peppy, as he's just about wrapped up nine months of filming on the hit ABC freshman drama.
"I'm really, really toast right now," he says in a slightly hoarse voice. "I'll be shooting right up until 4 o'clock tomorrow morning. Then I get on a flight almost immediately, about noon tomorrow, to Los Angeles to finish two days of shooting there.

"That's where the interior plane set is. That's a hint. There's some stuff right at the very end of the finale that involves the interior of the plane."


Executive produced by J.J. Abrams ("Alias") and Damon Lindelof, "Lost" is about the more than 40 survivors of doomed Oceanic Airlines Flight 815, which crashed on a mysterious tropical island.
Over the season, many scenes have flashed back to the last moments on the airplane before all hell broke loose. So it shouldn't be shocking that such scenes would be in the show's two-part finale, which concludes with a two-hour episode on Wednesday, May 25.

Fox plays Dr. Jack Shepard, a spinal surgeon who has become the survivors' caretaker and de facto leader. Jack was on the ill-fated Sydney-to-Los Angeles flight to bring back the body of his estranged father (John Terry), also a doctor. He's good man and a natural leader, despite his doubts and emotional issues.

Jack has also shown self-control, especially where the island's bad boy and chief hoarder, con-man Sawyer (Josh Holloway), is concerned. The two have clashed, but Jack still lent Sawyer medical assistance when needed. Jack has also kept a lid on his simmering attraction to Kate (Evangeline Lilly), a fugitive who is drawn to both Jack and Sawyer.

"You can't have Sawyer without Jack," supervising producer Javier Grillo-Marxuach says. "The thankless job that Jack has is to be the straight man. They're the duality. They're one of the most important character axes on the show.

"Everyone talks about Jack and Kate and the romance, but it's really Jack and Sawyer. Sawyer represents everything Jack can't be. He's the id, and Jack is the superego. Hurley's the ego."

"Jack allowed Sawyer to push his buttons for the first part of the year," Fox says, "because he was struggling so hard with control and then realized there was this element that he really couldn't control. At some point, Jack had so much on his plate and feels that people should be contributing, and you've got this one element that is just a negative, a hole of self-serving energy.

"It's always something I've loved about the way Damon and J.J. were writing this character, that he's our hero, he's our guy, but he's also the kind of guy that, if he let himself go to the dark place, could do real serious snappage on a guy like Sawyer."

While Hurley (Jorge Garcia), a genial lottery winner whose favorite word is "dude," seeks to boost survivor morale with jokes and a golf tournament, Jack has little time for such frivolity.

"Hurley doesn't have 46 people to take care of," Fox says. "Hurley's whole definition of himself certainly isn't based on being able to take care of and keep alive 46 people. So when one of those people dies, there's an enormous responsibility taken by Jack. That's what heroes are supposed to do.

"I've intentionally looked for any moment in the year where the guy can smile and the guy can find humor, but those moments aren't easy for me to find."

As for Jack being a natural leader, Fox says, "I think, way down, he is. He is an instinctual leader and an instinctual very heroic guy, but he has all this baggage and this really almost disturbing back story with his father. It's a strange relationship, but it's one that I think every single man can relate to."

Because of that baggage, Fox feels Jack needs to prove to himself that he can be a leader. "That will probably be Jack's path of redemption," he says, "getting through all of that to the core of himself and really becoming that guy who's not getting in his own way, not putting so much pressure on himself, just doing but not judging the consequences of it."

While Jack has taken on a leadership position, Fox has assumed a similar role.

"I felt that both on-screen and off," he says, "being No. 1 on the daily call sheet and having the most amount of work to do, there's a responsibility that goes along with it. We had a lot of production issues to iron out this year, so we were running into obstacles quite frequently, just getting a big beast of a show running as efficiently as we possibly can.

"Along with that comes a lot of frustration on people's parts at times. The cast, across the board, has been wonderful the whole year, but certainly there have been allegiances and things that have built up among the cast. It's almost my responsibility, in the position I'm in, to make a conscious decision to be there for anybody that has problems or wants to hang out."

Early in the season, that included regular Wednesday-night viewing parties at Fox's house ... swimsuits optional.

"I enjoy taking my clothes off and jumping in the water," Fox says. "I'm not going to worry about getting changed into a swimsuit at 2 o'clock in the morning. I really wanted to get people together, get them partying. I wanted them to take their clothes off and jump in the water.

"I thought that would be a good bonding experience for all of us, which it was. It was great fuel for ribbing and incessant bulls**ting with each other."

That part about "You can't have Jack without Sawyer" is quite interesting.
