Locke couldnt walk before coming to the island too right?

9/28/2005 11:50:00 PM

^ that is correct

9/28/2005 11:50:34 PM

he could

he did in the flashbacks where his dad stole his kidney

9/28/2005 11:50:39 PM

he was paralyzed for like 4 years

he was in a wheelchair when he was on the plane

[Edited on September 28, 2005 at 11:51 PM. Reason : and he was surprised when the plane crashed that he could feel his legs ]

9/28/2005 11:51:22 PM

and Michael was walking with a limp when he said bye to his son

9/28/2005 11:52:14 PM

but he still was able to walk at one point in time before he came to the island

9/28/2005 11:52:34 PM

He couldn't walk when he was in Australia. The guide wouldn't let him go on the hunt or whatever.

9/28/2005 11:52:36 PM

yup, from the car accident (well the car hitting him)

which funny, Jack's wife was almost paralyzed due to a car accident

Quote :

yes but up until the point they crashed, he had been paralyzed for the last 4 years

[Edited on September 28, 2005 at 11:53 PM. Reason : remember when his legs almost quit working on the island ]

9/28/2005 11:52:47 PM

OMG JACK STOLE LOCKE'S LEGS AND GAVE THEM TO HIS "WIFE"

Who said it was a car accident?

^I already had a theory that Desmond did that, but the timeline doesn't match.

i think she's talking about michael

9/28/2005 11:53:46 PM

well that car hit Michael when he was trying to cross the street

9/28/2005 11:54:05 PM

oh, ok

[Edited on September 28, 2005 at 11:54 PM. Reason : yeah, he was walking fine by the time Walt's mom died]

9/28/2005 11:54:20 PM

I took the image of the symbol on the locker and blew it up real big. I know it supposed to be suggestive of the yin & yang symbol, but it almost looks like a scorpion's stinger. Wonder if that means anything?

9/28/2005 11:54:45 PM

they havent explained how Locke became paralyzed

9/28/2005 11:54:56 PM

It's a snake.

[Edited on September 28, 2005 at 11:55 PM. Reason : or the LOCKEness monster]

9/28/2005 11:55:09 PM

I didnt' think it looked like the Yin and Yang after I looked back at the symbols on the food and Desmond's shirt or jacket.

I couldn't really tell what it was though.

9/28/2005 11:56:18 PM

right.

when Michael saw Walt and gave him the stuffed polar bear, he had a limp because the accident was still pretty fresh. he was still on disability from his job

Possibly.

9/28/2005 11:57:18 PM

the symbol seen in the hatch didn't have the balck/white contrast a yin-yang does

9/28/2005 11:58:28 PM

Whatever it is, the line gets fatter and rounder at the top, like an oval is stuck to the line. That could be the snake's head.

9/29/2005 12:00:49 AM

the logo on the shark and the one in the hatch are two different images

[Edited on September 29, 2005 at 12:02 AM. Reason : .]

9/29/2005 12:02:03 AM

Obviously the guy in the hatch is Greg.

DHATHA

DHATMA

DHARMA

9/29/2005 12:04:06 AM

Three things that post makes me wonder... 1. Why are the symbols slightly different? 2. Why is there a man on the shark? 3. Dhatma, Dharma? Which is it?

9/29/2005 12:04:13 AM

What does that say through the middle there?

I think the "man on the shark" is actually Sawyer swimming in the water.

Couldn't the first letter also be a "P"?

Isn't that Sawyer swimming to the pontoon?

9/29/2005 12:05:05 AM

that D could be a P

the 2nd letter is an H and the 2nd to last is a M, or vice a versa. the two letters don't look the same.

9/29/2005 12:05:30 AM

yeah, sawyer in background behind the "shark"

i think its DHARMA

9/29/2005 12:05:50 AM

Would Sawyer's shadow make that perfect of an outline?

9/29/2005 12:06:37 AM

KATE ATE FROM THE CANDY BAR OF KNOWLEDGE WITH THE SNAKE SYMBOL ON IT AND TOOK EXTRA TO GIVE TO EVERYONE

9/29/2005 12:07:09 AM

9/29/2005 12:07:33 AM

Also, if I recall the shot was of Michael looking at Sawyer swimming to the pontoon, Sawyer in the background... then the shot drops underwater to show the shark's fin. Anyone have it recorded? I really don't think that is Sawyer.

9/29/2005 12:08:00 AM

I'm downloading it, and I guarantee it's Sawyer.

9/29/2005 12:08:29 AM

Maybe the symbol is a company logo sponsoring the test of the drugs Desmond is taking and the diseased "Others."

9/29/2005 12:09:42 AM

I'm downloading some funky wmv, I'm probably going to have to re-download this in a day or two for a good copy, but I'll hopefully have this done before the night is done.

Someone list everything I need to look for in the episode.

9/29/2005 12:15:39 AM

1. polar bears

2. polar bears

3. polar bears

.

.

100. polar bears


seriously though:

what the crate in the storage room says when kate puts it on the ground

i don't think you can see all of it, just part of it

[Edited on September 29, 2005 at 12:18 AM. Reason : asfd]

9/29/2005 12:16:55 AM

or maybe it's to keep him awake. someone had a theory he hadnt sleeped in years??

9/29/2005 12:18:14 AM

or the medicine compensates for his lack of sleep

9/29/2005 12:19:10 AM

or.. keeps him from turning into a PolarWolf.

Moved to spoiler forum at request.

[Edited on September 29, 2005 at 12:24 AM. Reason : moved]

hey now

there's another thread for a reason

9/29/2005 12:23:39 AM

Thats not a spoiler in any way.. but for your sake I'll move it.

They look the same to me.


And yes, that is Sawyer in the water in the picture with the shark. I thought that should be pretty obvious its him.

9/29/2005 12:24:32 AM

I dunno, just seems to be too clear of a shadow, plus based on the angles I remember I don't see how it could be him.. but I wasn't paying alot of attention during that scene, I'm obviously wrong

9/29/2005 12:25:52 AM

speculations created from sources outside of this thread are just as bad as spoilers

9/29/2005 12:27:08 AM

Fair enough.

9/29/2005 12:28:32 AM

dude. next week is going to be amaaaaazing. TEH OTHERS! reminds me of the villians from like hercules and things like that.

9/29/2005 12:29:51 AM

I don't see anything on that box that Kate moves to step onto. There appears to be maybe lettering or something that is rubbed off under the handle, but I can't read any of it. It's really faded.

Oh, that part of the box. It appears to me to say "Legumes."
