[MikeH1986MikeH]

It annoys me that they use comedy to mask their terrible ability to conclude LOST properly. People will forever be disappointed by the way they ended this

[2ndHAC]

@MikeH1986MikeH

I wasn't dissapointed. They answered ALL unanswered questions. They concluded it beautifully.

[MikeH1986MikeH]

@2ndHAC Oh really?

So can you answer for me

Why did the Others take Cindy the flight attendant so early on?

Why did she seem so brainwashed by 'the others'?

Why did Leonard Simms go mad when he heard the numbers?

Why has Kate seen the same black horse?

What happened to Sawyer on The Tampa Job?

Why was Libby in Australia, and why was she leaving?

Why did the Monster not attack Locke at first, then later drag him into a hole?

Why was Ben roaming about the jungle when he was first captured?

[2ndHAC]

@MikeH1986MikeH

1. Emma and Zach complained about missing her.

2. Because she was.

3. Simms was already crazy, and giving a character apophenia towards the numbers probably caused a lot of viewers to do likewise.

4. It's a metaphor, geez (2deep4u). But actually it was MIB manipulating the Islanders slowly.

5. No idea. Vague reference that was forgotten. On another show you'd have forgotten about it. I guess it was a conjob gone wrong.

6. Vacation? Maybe a clinical psychologist

[MikeH1986MikeH]

@2ndHAC Why/ how did they brainwash her, why not just do that with Jack, Kate, Sawyer, Juliet, etc etc

[2ndHAC]

@MikeH1986MikeH

Room 23, to make her complacent, because they never got the chance.

[2ndHAC]

@MikeH1986MikeH

working abroad?

7. Because the MIB is actually a human being, and doesn't automatically know that he's looking at candidate 4. However later, when Locke is with a group, he realises that this is the LOCKE on the cave wall, and tries to kill him.

8. He was trying to get captured on purpose, to infiltrate the Losties. A better question would be why he didn't send someone else to do it.

9. Probably because MIB had some motivation the second time he didn't have the

[MikeH1986MikeH]

@2ndHAC 7. Why not kill him anyway

8. Why not send someone else

[hedonism13]

@MikeH1986MikeH

Because the smoke monster isn't pro-murder despite appearances. he's pro-getting off the island, and the candidates were what was stopping him (i'm assuming your asking why not just kill him during the first encounter anyway)

[2ndHAC]

@MikeH1986MikeH

first time around. Perhaps he saw Eko has a guiding force that may sway the Losties towards Jacob.

10. To sway her sympathies.

11. Refer to answer 5. I'd guess it was some military/taliban action Sayid was accidentally involved in.

12. Complex answer. Essentially, all the powers (MIB, Jacob, Richard, Desmond Hurley and Miles) get their power from manipulation of the light to a certain extent (Lost's S0DEEP metaphor for souls). The light is associated with large

[2ndHAC]

@MikeH1986MikeH

amounts of electromagnetism, so it's basically like maipulating EMFs. Since the light represents life, the light can heal Rose's cancer, and Hurley can tap into it to talk to the dead. You asked where Walt got his powers from. Well, all the people with powers either got their powers from contact with the light (MIB, Desmond), or it was just never shown on screen (Walt, Miles). So my best GUESS is that at some early point in his life, Walt had an experience with

[2ndHAC]

@MikeH1986MikeH

an Electromagnetic event.

13. Because "Walt" was just the MIB doing his thang.

14. To see if he was special, that is, if he had communion with the Island and Jacob, that is, does he have Light-Powers?

15. Along with Frank and Ben? The leading theory is that Locke (who had something of a spiritual awakening) didn't visit them. That's their only connection. Maybe that influenced the Light somehow when it transported them through time. Crazy shit, man.

[2ndHAC]

@MikeH1986MikeH

16. Well why not? Investigate the history of the Island? Better understand the aims and motivation of the others? Something to keep the physicist interested?

17. Polar bears were trained in the hydra to perform complex tasks. They were then used to turn the donkey wheel to move the island. They ended up in Tunisia, where they died. Charlotte looked for this to confirm her memories of the Island in the past. This is one of those things explicitly answered on screen

[2ndHAC]

@MikeH1986MikeH

18. A guy who flew his balloon around the world but crashed onto the Island. He died, broke his neck. The Other's buried him so the MIB wouldn't find him and take on his identity.

19. Because it demonstrates the level of dedication and manipulation the Other's have by way of the Island, that even the nicest people will do the worst of things to fulfill the most trivial of the Other's requirements. Also, the Tailies killed two others. That pisses people off.

[MikeH1986MikeH]

@2ndHAC Let me continue,

Why did the Smoke Monster kill Eko on their second encounter, but not their first?

If the government officials told Sayid that Nadia was alive before he boarded Flight 815, why did he then tell Danielle Rousseau that Nadia was dead?

What is the "Basra Incident" reference to Sayid by Juliet?

How did Walt get special powers?

Why do Shannon, Sayid, and Locke see Walt in places he shouldn't be?

Why did the Others make Walt take "tests"?

Why didn't Sun end up in the past?

[MikeH1986MikeH]

@2ndHAC Most of the things on here you have just guessed yourself, so again I state, the makers of the show left far too much unanswered.

[2ndHAC]

@MikeH1986MikeH

I haven't guessed so much as drawn conclusions from available evidence... yeah, I guessed. I should restate. Most questions were explicitly answered, a handful were implicitly answered.

[MikeH1986MikeH]

@MikeH1986MikeH Shall I go on?

Why did Matthew Abaddon send a cultural anthropologist (Charlotte) on the mission to find the Island?

Why did Charlotte find polar bears in the middle of nowhere with ancient Dharma collars on?

Who was Henry Gale? What happened to him?

Ethan is a doctor, and in flashbacks he seems nice, so why is he psychotically willing to kill everyone when first introduced?

What happened to Mikhail's eye? Is the glass eye from The Arrow station his?

I can't be bothered any more

[2ndHAC]

@MikeH1986MikeH

20. He probably lost it in the war. Yes, most likely that glass eye is his.

[ptyko]
