The Official Harper's Island thread starts 4/9/09....

Yup! And Missing Madison called not her Moms phone, not her Aunts phone...not even her dead fathers phone...BUT the Cell Phone # the killer knew. Jimmy knows Abby's Cell phone #, he was not friendlywith anybody else.

All good points.

Thanks! I agree that it's weird that the killer has had her cell number from the beginning...

A couple episodes ago, the Sheriff told everyone, "Go back to the hotel, stay together, don't be alone." And the rest of the episode people were going off by themselves, wandering around the island, etc. DH kept yelling at the screen.

Yep...I'm right there with your DH. I understand that in order for the plot to work, people have to be stupid and get killed, but Scream managed that WITH the guy telling everyone not to be stupid--every show should do that! lol

I wondered a lot about Trish and Shea's mom too. It has been mentioned that she died. But it hasn't been mentioned when or how she died. No backstory has been given for Henry's parents' deaths. I think there is a possibility that Trish could be Wakefield's child and that's why the killer is targeting the wedding.

I think it's very important that we know next to nothing about Henry's parents' deaths...

Someone mentioned the killer was seen in the first episode. FYI, you can rewatch the first episode at cbs.com. I am going to watch it again to see if I can find any clues.

Well I watched again, and I noticed the cabbie who dropped Abby off, knew who she was and about the killings, and he had a patch over one eye? Also there were a lot more people on the boat to the Island, than are featured on the show. Madison ripped the tag off the gift bag prepared for Trish's cousin who did not show up and she took it away, I think there was a bottle of wine/liquer in it. Abby received an annonymous phone call on her cell, that played church like music. There was a person (man?) standing in the woods watching Abby and Henry when she was walking from the dock to the hotel.

Well that is what I picked up watching it again.

Ok i watched the 1st episode last night and I thought the cab driver was very acting very strange when he was driving Abby to the marina. To say that she had been gone for several years it was odd that he recognized her and knew her name.

 

[karajeboo]

Actually, Trish and Abby are only 6 months apart, so probably not sisters.....

I noticed that when they checked into the hotel there was a thing of air (for scuba) like what the cousin had tied to him when he died; that henry went with everyone to the hotel but showed up to get abby at the tree; uncle marty had all that money and gun; someone is on the back of the boat with a stud bracelet (JD??); and that I forgot about Cloe checking out Unlce Marty...there was alot of folks in the first episode though and well I will wind up really just confusing myself if I go back and watch them all. Oh yeah and Booth didnt talk at all they just showed him in the first one

.

Do we actually know that Jimmy knows Abby's cell#? It seemed pretty clear that they had not been in touch while she was off the Island. Has she given it to him since she's been back?

 

[2BigKIdz]

Jimmy was with Abby while the deputy with the scarred face was killed so if he is the killer he is not acting alone.

Henry's parents' deaths had to have been something traumatic because JD had a mental breakdown after it and he broke down more after his girlfriend committed suicide because of the pact. Maybe they died in a suspicious way but people think it's an accident and maybe later on it will be revealed as murder.

 

[adabob]

I watched the clip again and I don't think that Booth is still alive like some people think. I think that Malcolm would have reconized him and it did kind of have a simalarity but not exactly like him.

I have wondered while watching all of the episodes do you think that they will tell us who the killer is( not exactly come out and tell us but a way that everyone will figure out) ,or are they going to leave it up in the air?

But cant wait to see the next episode with the clip that i saw with wakefield's daughter and who she is.

 

[Terry36]

o my goodness.....this one was GOOOOOOD! I won't say anything until everyone has watched it but what the heck; the ending was unexpected....do you think it really could be him???

 

[KristaTX]

I had to watch peeking through my fingers several times through this one . I'm not sure how the person who went missing and was found dead tonight could have been killed by the person who they have implied might be the culprit. Plus it seems a little early to give it away.

 

[karajeboo]

Nope, I don't think it's Mills. I think Madison is a nutcase though, and whoever it IS told her to say that. There is no way he would have been strong enough to have hauled Beth through those tunnels AFTER he killed her. He lost a lot of blood!

BUT, I do think the killer is a man at this point. The sheer strenght they would need for some of these killings.....

My money is still on Cal.......

Hmmm...Cal huh? I never thought of that but anyone is a good guess at this point.

I don't think it's the Sheriff either but he's definately spirally down or at least it appears by the previews for next week.

 

[browneyes106]

I don't think the Sheriff is the killer. I think if he did kidnap Madison it was to keep everyone on the island because maybe he thinks one of them is the killer.

 

[Sherlee]

After last night, I am thinking it is Maggie-wedding planner/inn owner.

 

[wall*e2008]

No.

He was severely injured and in the truck when the murder happened on the dock.

Madison was not scared like a kid would be when found. Also nobody actually asked her who kidnapped her. I think she is telling a story that is part of the killers game.

Didnt she say that the Sheriff took her????? I think he put her there for safe keeping.

It really is a bad written show....if they said one more time "The state police will be here in the Morning" I was gonna scream. WHO CALLED THE STATE POLICE AND SAID WE HAVE A DOZEN MURDERED PEOPLE ON THIS iSLAND....AND THEIR RESPONSE WAS "WELL IT's NIGHT TIME, WE WILL BE THERE FIRST THING IN THE AM"!

My $$$$ is still on Jimmy....He had a few Diabolical looks last night!

Jimmy lived on the Island and had ALL the time in the world to plan this.

 

[SkyGirl]

I am guessing that in the preview that showed Abby's father telling her to stay away from him -- that he was wired with explosives. I really don't think he's the murderer, just too obvious. I think they'll keep us guessing until the final episode.

When is the final episode, by the way?

 

[londonderrydisneyfan]

I think so too! There was something about the way she talked to Madison when they brought her back that struck me as odd.
