Yeah. Faraday started to lay out the time travel rules..



anyone catch him working for Dharma early on?

Yeah, I wonder how that's going to play out. I'm assuming they will time travel all the way back to the 70's and maybe get stuck there? Maybe Farraday has assimilated into the scientists group.

I was confused by this as well. Why was Locke able to kill those Dharma people who were attacking Juliet/Sawyer? According to Farraday you can only interact with people you know in that time period.

I believe he said you can't interact with the people you're not supposed to. Apparently Locke was supposed to be able to kill those people.

Basically, to me it means that even though time travel is possible, everybody still has an unavoidable destiny.

I don't think the lady who was talking to Ben at the end was Farraday's mother. The mother is supposedly at Oxford, and Ben was (presumably) still in LA when talking to this woman.

I think this shows that he eventually finds a way to move forward and backward through time for his own purposes. I dont think that particular moment was in line with the other moments in the episode. He was up to something.

You could be right re: LA/Oxford but that was definitely the same lady that was working at the jewelry shop in England.

We cant forget that some of the "others" are made up of some of the oceanic crew as well. Hopefully they dont forget about them. Otherwise that will be a plot hole on this time thing. Hypothetically when Locke and the main losties move through time and show up in various places, so do the stewardess and children.

I loved how they showed that guy from the Orientation films as a jerk. "I don't need to the stupid $cript."

btw, lol at $****** being a blocked word.

I know that Ben killed his father, but I don't remember his mother in the picture before. I wonder if the older lady at the end is his mother?

Good show, I am going to have to buy the other seasons just to sit around in my old age and figure all the twists and turns!

Good call. They still have never explained why that one dark-haired girl from the tail section in season 2 is a full-fledged other.

So we know Locke, Desmond and Richard all have some sort of special different attributes with time travel and Faraday is the only guy that can figure it out.

Did anyone else notice that when Richard ran into Locke in the jungle after Locke was shot by Ethan that he gave him that compass and told him he had to show it to him, otherwise he wouldnt know who he was.

If you remember, that's the same compass that Richard puts on the table in front of a young John Locke in one of season 3's flashbacks. I'm guessing that's all related somehow. If you recall Richard put a bunch of random objects in front of John and John picked the knife and Richard was disappointed.

The whole time travel element opens up a whole bunch of possibilities for things on the island. I was reading an article talking about "Adam and Eve". The two dead people that Jack and the rest come across early in Season 1.

With time travel those 2 could be anyone, including people from the plane that died in the past - i.e. Kate-Sawyer, Jack-Kate, ect.

Did anyone else enjoy the brutality of Sayid's ***kickery? I was surprised by the THUD! when he tossed that guy off the building. The knives in the washer was just awful...=)

Yep, thoroughly enjoyed it.

I'll never look at the organization of knives in a dishwasher the same way again.

FWIW, I was just looking at another board and someone mentioned that the people who Locke killed appeared to be WWII era British troops based on the weapons, outfits and accents. Interesting, although I don't recall them traveling back in time that far, I could have sworn they were still in the "Desmond in the hatch" time period.

Yes, I'm sure it's related. Thanks for the reminder. I wonder why Richard was disappointed?
