I think that is why the dog was there, because of Walt.

Just when I though we might get some answers, we get more ****ing questions! Damn, I love this show!!!

KCTitus · 09-22-2005, 06:26 AM

A few answers that I got from Elliott in the Morning call in show out of DC:

The 'whispers' that Walt was saying was backwards...reversing the audio, he says 'Dont push the button, the button is bad'. Walt apparently mentioned 'the button' in an episode in the first season.

The numbers were on the steroids or whatever the guy was injecting, the mural had the number 108 on it, which all the numbers add up to.

The guy who died in the emergency room died at 8:15, same number as the flight. The guy who died, it's theorized, was the father of the brother/sister who were on the flight. Brother died last season, sister is the cute blonde (dont remember their names).

At the beginning of the show, the the guy in the hatch, keyed in the numbers into the old computer and didnt press execute. When Locke stopped the doctor from pressing the button, that might be the 'button' that Walt referenced. It's theorized that the hatch might be a medical research site or nuclear test site and pushing the button after keying in the numbers could destory the island.

Honestly, I didnt pick any of this up, but the host of the show is verifying everything with a tivo'ed copy of the show as the callers call in. I definately need to record and re-watch the shows.

I got this theory....
in the Hitchhiker's guide series, I think It's in So long and thanks for all the fish
there is this character Wonko The Sane, who builds his house inside out so he can put the rest of the world in an asylum

sort of like the the quareentine on the inside hatch

probably nohig, but it came to me in a dream...
kinda

Danielle has already said that everyone else on her team was sick, so definitely the outside was the quarantine. The whole Desmond stadium scene was very predictable. Question is, how the hell does he tie in with Danielle's team? This race around the world surely wouldn't include such equipment as materials to build an underground quarantine facility, complete with some strong electo-magnetic generator of some sort, computer, stereo, arsenal, etc.

My biggest questions...how long has Desmond been down there? Judging from that sound and computer system, quite a while. Is he able to get out of the bunker, off the island, so he could go recruit Jack and/or others? If so, WTF? What's the point?

ct · 09-22-2005, 07:56 AM

So did Desmond leave the island specifically to recruit the good Dr. Jack? To help with the 'illness' maybe?

**Dartgod** · 09-22-2005, 08:19 AM

Maybe Desmond isn't the same guy that was in the stadium. Maybe they are twins?

Here's another theory.

People noticed that in last year's season finale, the Others on the boat looked like older versions of the survivors. It could be that there's a time travel aspect, and that the young Desmond sent Jack (kinda like in Terminator) to the older Desmond on the island. The show could be based on a sort of time travel experience...last season Sawyer was seen reading "A Wrinkle in Time."

Or, to make it even crazier, what if Desmond's future is Jack's past? So when Desmond sees Jack in the hatch, he's seeing him for the first time?

As you can tell, I really dig this show. As long as there isn't some horrible ending to it, it'll easily be one of my favorite shows of all time.

**Dartgod** · 09-22-2005, 12:03 PM

I thought everything in this show was supposed to be based in reality...explainable in real life, if you will.
There's nothing real about time travel, as far as I know. That's why I considered that there may be a twin. How else could Desmond be in both places?

ZootedGranny · 09-22-2005, 12:07 PM

You know, I remember reading an interview with I think JJ Abrams that said everything in the show has a logical explanation based in reality, but I can't remember if he shot down time travel. He may have though, and I could be off base.

EDIT: I did a search, and co-creator Damon Lindelhof said it wasn't time travel.

The twins theory does have merit though. If you don't mind a possible spoiler, go to http://www.oceanicflight815.com and click the barcode at the bottom and type in 'theislandiswaiting' (without the apostrophes). You get an excerpt of the script from yesterday's episode that may or may not have been cut or moved. I say possible spoiler because it's unknown whether or not it is going to be a plot point in another episode.
