Season 4, Episode 3

happy valentine's day!

ahhh.. a sayid episode- shout out to my two ladies on the lost blog that love sayid as much as i do!

karen said there was last week's episode before with the captions and towards the end they held up ben linus' picture and it said proof that ben lied about geting off the island. this proves to be true because we see the passports & foreign currency. he went to the island as a young boy but obviously manages to get off. also- he did tell juliette she could leave. there was a submarine that he told jack they could leave on but locke blew it up.


five iron golf club- is also known as a mashie, which is an egg shaped golf club - eggs/fertility (spoiler alert! next week's episode is named eggtown and revolves around kate!) also the losties have known to partake in golfing for fun on the island!

the golfing man's name- mr. avellino. he turns out to be elsa's boss. In 1943 the city was bombed by Allied planes in an attempt to cut off the retreat of German panzer units over the important Bridge of Ferriera. they are in Berlin.

sayid says he's a head hunter- interesting choice!

the tailies keep getting mentioned- what is the meaning?

RC on Naomi's bracelet. three theories on RC:

- Desmond's ex-fiance is named Ruth Campbell. Ruth's name means "friend/companion". In the Bible, Ruth was the young Moabite widow who said to her Hebrew mother-in-law Naomi, "Where you go, there I shall go also; your people will be my people, your God, my God".

- Rita. no last name but she is the person on the boat that Dan is trying to make contact with.

- Rachel Carson. Juliette's sister who couldn't get pregnant because of the Cancer but then got pregnant. In the Old Testament, Rachel was the wife and true love of Jacob. Rachel was barren for a long period of time, until finally she gave birth to both Joseph and Benjamin.

Did Sayid know Naomi from the past? He closed Elsa's eyes the same way he did with Naomi. "Naomi" was the name of the personal helicopter pilot/assistant to "Karl Stromberg" in the James Bond film The Spy Who Loved Me

Elsa- name is a variant of Elizabeth. Desmond's boat is name Elizabeth and it's also Libby's name. The Biblical name Elizabeth refers to Mary's cousin who became pregnant at a very old age with her first child by a miracle. That child was John the Baptist. (John Locke).

haha- random trivia- The name of the actor who played the Sleestak leader in Season Three of the 1970s TV show Land of the Lost was Jon Locke.

Sayid said maybe Desmond can shed some light

Sawyer called Locke gizmo. a gizmo is obviously a tech term. Sayid calls out Elsa's beeper saying "your boss doesn't believe in any other more modern forms of technology?"' Also- Gizmo was the pet in Gremlins. In Gremlins the main character's girlfriend's name is Kate.


Sawyer was going to threaten Ben by blowing off toes one by one- the piggy first-then the roast beef- reference to the foot statue.

When Sayid says everyone has a boss.. it was foreshadowing of who is boss is!

Numbers that dan was using that didn't match up. what was he doing?

The Economist- David Hume is a famous economist. Hume is Desmond's last name. the name Hume can refer to many people:

Australian superintendent of convicts and farmer
Scottish Statesmen
British political reformer during the Age of Enlightenment
also means philosophers, explorers, politicians, historians,

Also- check out New World Order.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_world_order

Desmond and Sayid are Economists, along with Naomi. They get on the plane.

The List- when Ben first called for the losties to come he made a list. Sayid also referenced names on a list during this episode.

Follow same bearing we came in on- someone is messing with the electrocurrents!

Dogs- when Sayid walked in to get his arm fixed there were a lot of dogs. Is Ben cloning dogs? there was a weird poster too i couldn't make out.
Also- i thought the dogs looked like Vincent but they were different. I looked up Labs- Common working roles for Labradors include: hunting, tracking and detection, disabled-assistance, carting, and therapy work. Also, labradors are skilled at carrying delicate objects in their mouths, such as eggs.


Theories:
michael's ex wife susan moved to italy -elsa's boss was italian- and michael's ex wife looked like naomi. susan's husband, her old boss, arranged for michael and walt to be on the flight. susan/naomi are working for hanso or dharma. there is some connection with sayid and susan to naomi.


whew! at first i thought i had nothing here- but a LOT happened.

also- thanks to dan kruchkow for sending this link:

When Daniel Farady (the crazy physicist) holds the two timers, noticed the following -

- Time was off by 31 minutes and 20 seconds

Questions -
-Does this time change only happen from the air?
-How come the people off the island can't use a submarine to get to the island like Ben had to leave the island?
-When Daniel put's the clocks together, how are they related to the Lost NUMBERS?

Dr. Elsa Schneider was also the german chick in indiana jones and last crusade who slept with both indy and his dad and turned out to be a
double agent working with the nazis and betrayed them leading to
Indy's dad being shot by elsa's boss donovan.

how about richard, the hostile is he RG. when is he coming back? there is more to him then we know

Anonymous said...

bet ben has the same power of sayid that he does over michael

kinda like michael was forced to do whatever he could to get him and his boy off the island

maybe ben has his woman and is forcing him to do this which could explain the weakness

You people are thinking WAY TOOOOO MUCH. JUST LOOK AT THE DAMNED SHOW AND ENJOY IT. How can you watch this and have your poor little brain absorb all this extra stuff. No wonder you all can't sleep. I simply watch cause it's a good show. My little pea brain can't handle all this extra thinking. And that's all I have to say on this matter. So there.
Love,
The Mummy

and taking it a step further in order to save his dad indy had to take a leap of faith and retrieve the cup of christ which had miraculous and mysterious healing and restorative powers unknown to science

I think that it's Penelope's father behind the freighter
people. That would explain (1) why they knew about Desmond at all and had a copy of that picture, and (2) why they came with gas masks and suits(because the Widmore Corporation funded the Darma initiative and knew of their demise). This would also fit in with Dave's theory that Miles is that Darma video guy's kid and therefore would earn a spot on the mission, even though Naomi didn't see why.

I like the theory... Miles being the Dharma son is a great one and
this only furthers that... We figured it all out I think... lol

I listened to the ABC podcast about the Economist with the producers. One fan wrote in, asking the producers how the polar bear got to Tunisia. The producers said, "there are properties of the island capable of transporting things off the island that are on the island." (So, I guess the polar bear is similar to Locke's dad appearing on the island.) The producers then referred us to the Orchid station training film. Also, they said that the cow is Patchy's cow, Svetlana. - Amber
