Lost 2/23/07 Season Finale w/ spoilers

[Atavar]

According to some discussions I heard that obituary/article Jack had referred to the death of a man named Jeremy Bentham, from New York, by suicide by hanging.

Another piece of speculation: The woman Jack saved after the crash was Juliet's sister, and that little boy was Juliet's nephew.

Charlie's doing the sign of the cross right before he died seemed especially appropriate for a former alter boy.

Finally, does Charlie's own visions of having to Baptize Turnip-head make any more sense at this point then when he first had them?

Later,

Atavar

Charlie and Desmond both held their breath for a dive of over 200 feet! Holy Shmokes! Charlie's probably going to take a long time to drown, then.

Heck, he's probably still alive, two days after the episode aired.

Well, it depends on physical fitness level. When I was a lifeguard, I *used* to be able to swim 50m underwater, on one breath......and I knew several guards who were better swimmers than I....so going 200' feet is not inconceivable. But I really don't think that base was 200' down. Of course, were Charlie and Desmond in that kind of physical shape?

two hundred feet underwater is not the same as depth, each atmosphere crossed is like a barrier to the human body, at 50 meters, trained free divers say the lungs are the size of a fist, people pass out then. The record is 200 meters but that is with a sled moving at 3m+/s.

I've got a screencap for that news clipping.

Likely Translation: "Los Angeles, Man found dead in downtown loft [unreadable], The body of Ja [could be Jo].. [unreadable] ..antham of New York was discovered shortly after 4 a.m. in the.. [unreadable] of Grand Avenue. Ted.. [unreadable] ..man at The Tower.. [unreadable] .. heard loud noises.. [unreadable]..m's loft. Co.. [unreadable] ..entered the.. [unreadable] ..a beam in the.. [unreadable] ..[ac]cordin[g].. [unreadable].."

I suspect it's Jacob in the coffin. We've got three seasons to find out how the heck that could be.

You wouldn't happen to have a screencap from when the stewerdess first gave him the newspaper do you? That seemed to have a better view of the article. At the very least it might give you a different view and an opportunity to fill in some blanks.

He's a recently recovering heroin addict. I'd guess probably not. (Desmond, on the other hand, I could buy- he was in intensive training before going to the island, and we saw him still working out regularly in the hatch.)

 

[David Howery]

one question I haven't seen asked on here yet... just why in the hell was it Penny, of all people, who just happened to pop up on that communications system after Charlie shut down the jamming? Why would she have been watching that specific channel?

What is James's (Sawyer's) last name? I guess it is Ford if that is truly his name.

Ellison was specifically referring to comicbooks, and put it much more succinctly than I just did,

Since it was Ellison, I'm guessing it was something like "Comic book writing is crap!".
