LT7: The Swan Hatch Is Getting Darker

We wrote this one back when Hurley was checking out the Dharma Ranch Dressing...


**


CALL IT DARK

Jack is losing it.
Locke is getting nastier.
Charlie Vader is dark.
Sayid feels no guilt.

Maybe what Goodwin told them is true…they took only the good that night. Yikes!

RANCH DRESSING

Reliable sources tell me that the frog with ranch dressing does NOT taste like chicken, more of a wild game taste when sautéed properly in butter which a splash of white wine.

WEIRD THINGS

Ok, not Lost related, other than this is something I heard last night: Why does the word “synonym” have no synonyms?

TALK ABOUT DARK AND WEIRD

My name is Sayid…I’m a torturer.

COUNTDOWN

What in the heck was that with the clock…there is a SECOND CHANCE? Here is what it looked like:

MYSTERY CLOCK

What was up with a different clock in the promo? Hmmm…

MIDWEST CONNECTION

Henry Gale, the balloon man, was from Minnesota.
Goodwin said South Dakota.
Sawyer said he met someone in Sioux City, Iowa.
Kate was from there with her toy plane and boyfriend.
DeGroots claim to hail from Michigan.
Stephen King’s book the “Stand” has a lot in Iowa.
In “24” Jack Bauer says some bomb was crossing Iowa.
Oh wait, I’m mixing my messages.

BACK TO THE CLOCK

What do those symbols mean? Egyptian is the early take. Translated it spells out (we are missing one letter): S__IDAD. Of course symbols is not an alphabet, so someone with experience has translated the symbols into English for me. The answer…

The clock reads “DIE”.

HENRY GALE

Vote now: When in the trap…was he an Other in your mind?
Ok, when the arrow is poking him? Still think he is an Other?
When answering questions to Mr. Congeniality? Still think he is an Other?
Or that final shot and the look in his eye…now I’m thinking, OTHER!

MIND GAMES

What if flashbacks are memory implants? In Sayid’s flashback, the road in the middle of the desert is WET. A strange off-hand comment was, “Now you have the skills you can use one day”…seems pretty well placed by coincidence. And the trucks kept heading in the same direction, why not turn around and go home or offer him a little bit closer drop off? It seemed to trigger “placed memories” instead of a real memory or was that just in my case? Didn’t everyone get shock treatment in junior high or just me?

NUMBERS

When Sayid was being shown the tape of his old village being hit with nerve gas, the counter on the video (bottom of screen) read: REEL2310842. 23 106 42. Hmmm.

Locke when telling Jack the “new” combination started by saying RIGHT 15.

Henry floated to the island 4 months ago.

Sayid was 23 when Americans invaded his country.

Enjoy,
