5x01 - "Because You Left" On Island
With this new season of Lost, I've been forced yet again to change my format. It seems that for all intents and purposes the single character flashbacks and flashforwards have stopped entirely and the events of each episode will include the entire group. I will try to seperate the content of each blog to the best of my ability but for the on Island events, I'm just gonna wing it as much as I can.
Prologue - Sometime in the 1970's
1. Marvin Candle, now known ad Dr. Pierre Chang, is playing the song, "Shotgun Willie" by Willie Nelson.
2. I wonder if the child's name is Miles? Could he have been born on the Island?
3. We have four names for this character (including three aliases), Marvin Candle, Mark Whitman, Edgar Halliwax, and his real name Pierre Chang.
4. The purpose of the Arrow is to develop defensive strategies and gather information on the original inhabitants of the Island, or the as the DHARMA Initiative likes to call them, hostiles.
5. If the construction worker is deferring to Chang about their discovery while building the Orchid Station, then he must be in charge of operations on the Island. Where, then are the Degroots?
6. The frozen wheel is behind the wall. When turned, it sends the Island through time. Does it also send the Island through space?
7. If you can't change the past, then what is the point of manipulating time?
8. It seems possible that the Island stopped flashing our castaways at this specific point in time. That seems the only way for them to have been there long enough for Daniel Faraday to infiltrate DHARMA this deeply.
End of prologue
All events covered here will be covered from the point of view from the castaways. Everything starts after the Island moved initially. I will divide up the events through each "flash."
Time Shift Number One - Shortly before Eko's beechcraft crashed on the Island
1. It seems that Faraday, Charlotte, Miles, Sawyer, Juliet, Locke, and there rest of the castaways are moving through time. Why aren't the Others moving through time as well?
2. Faraday's motorboat was inside the radius of the flash, which is why they were able to reach the Island.
3. The lack of the beach camp is the indicator that the cast is back sometime prior to the crash.
4. According to Daniel, either the castaways are now unstuck in time, or the Island is.
5. The crash of the small plane supports my theory that the Island can also move through space, as well as time. How else could a small plane taking off from Nigeria reach an Island in the South Pacific? Answer: the Island wasn't always in the South Pacific and was at one time close to Nigeria.
6. Now it's John Locke's turn to climb the vines under the beechcraft. When he comes down, he finds Ethan.
7. It didn't take very long for Ethan to reach the plane.
Time Shift Number Two - Sometime after the hatch implosion, more specifically, a point in time after Ben turned the wheel.
1. Why can't time be altered?
2. What exactly was Daniel able to learn about the DHARMA Initiative prior to coming to the Island?
3. Richard seems to be able to tell when the next flash is coming.
4. When will Locke tell Richard about the bullet in this leg?
5 . Why aren't the Others moving through time?
6. That's the same Compass that Richard presented Locke with in the "Cabin Fever" flashback.
7. Why will Locke have to die?
8. The next time Locke and Richard meet, it will most likely be some time before John Locke was born or at least before Locke reached his current age.
Time Shift Number Three - Sometime between Desmond's arrival on the Island, and the crash of Oceanic Flight 815
1. Faraday knows that Desmond was in the hatch because Sawyer told him.
2. Why did Charlotte have a nosebleed?
3. I need to make it clear that Daniel took a total gamble when he knocked on the Hatch door. He couldn't have known that Desmond was in there at THAT TIME until Desmond opened the door.
4. Is this scene the explanation as to why Desmond is Daniel's constant?
5. Why don't the rules apply to Desmond? Is it because he turned the key at the end of season two.
6. Who is Daniel's mother? Could she be Mrs. Hawkins, the jewelry store owner?
The On Island events end with time shift number four.
A parting thought, the writers have been promising for the longest time that we will learn about Rousseau's past on the Island, the four-toed statue, the Adam and Eve corpses, etc. If the castaways are moving through time they could very actually see the answers to these questions, instead of simply learning them. It is for this reason that I believe that Season Five will be the Season of the Island.
