Lost - Season Three


Recommended Posts

Hmm I don't think Eko would ever say "You're next", but it's always possible the 'smoke monster' was inside him.. You never know with Lost! I also thought about the islands healing powers (Rose).. why is it that Ben is not healed? Or is he being healed and this is all yet another test?

Remember when Roseau caught Ben she said "For a long time he will lie"...well I think he maybe lying about his illness :o

That's an excellent observation. Why isn't Ben being healed if it healed Rose and Locke, why not Ben?

probabley because ben isnt on the lost island..... the others have thier own island.

If the other island heals, and this one doesn't, would the others know about it. And if they know about it, why isn't Ben on the other island? Something still doesn't add up--I cannot imagine that these people don't know that the other island doesn't heal, they've been there for a long time.

Some notes from Podcast...

Points of interest so far.

- They have not forgotten about Cindy and the other people taken

- Hinted that the smoke monster downloaded Eko's memory in his first encounter

- Hinted that Yemi was in fact a manifestation of the Smoke Monster

Does that include the kids? Were'nt they all taken from the other side of the island? Or is my memory a bit hazy?

They were taken from the Tallies section of the Island...yeah that part of the story was forgotten...weird :pinch:

No--the Others' island IS the losties' island. The secondary island is where they are to do the tests et cetera. Watch the opening scene from this season and you'll see that their village is clearly on the same island.

In the latest official LOST PODCAST, Carlton and Damon gave up mucho-info on both what we saw in 'The Cost of Living', and what to expect in the aftermath of 'I Do'.

- Carlton and Damon say that they had hoped people would assume Nikki and Paulo would die on ?The Cost of Living?. (Nice Try Guys!)

- Adewale was only on board for a year from the beginning.

- Eko?s last words were ?you?re next? to Locke, not "we're next" as Locke said.

- ?I Do? is the best LOST episode ever.

- The fates of Cindy and the children will be addressed, we will see them again in episode eight.

- They hinted heavily that the monster does indeed take human form.

- They indicated that after Episode Six the action will shift away from the second island and back to the beach. They also stressed that they will be changing the game fundamentally.

- The survivors will eventually return to the Black Rock.

The "Your next" and "We're Next" thing might be cleared up now...lol

The only logical explanation is that Ben has no tumor. The island healed both Locke and Rose, and Ben has been on the island his entire life. Unless his cancer has developed to the point where the island can no longer contain it, I'd say that this is a test for Jack, to see if he will 'behave'.

I dont think the island has healing properties. we dont know that roses cancer is really gone, and we certainly dont know anything about lockes legs. (it could be a purely psychological handicap, the way it comes and goes seems to strengthen the idea)

Remember in the first season, Locke got injured in his leg and Boone pointed it out. Locke didn't even feel the wood or whatever it was that went into his leg, so I have a feeling that he's lost feeling in his legs at some point in life, which probably happened at the same time he lost mobility of his legs.

And Rose, she was only suppose to live like 6 months after Bernard proposed to her. I'm guessing it has been more than 6 months since he proposed since they're married. I believe that the island does have healing properties based on these facts, but I could be wrong.

It has only gone once hasn't it? When Locke was trying to get to plane in the first season, that's the only time I remember Locke not being able to walk. Well, that and when the blast door came down on him, but that's a given. No one would be able to walk after a blast door like that came down on you.

mmm weren't they in australia to see this guy that cured people? They never got back to LA because the plane crashed. So unless they stayed for LONG in AU, no 6 months have passed. they crashed in september and it is like november now for them.

Rose will die and Locke's disability was never a physical one.

how come in the first season when we used to see the others they

were all dressed up in worn out clothes and they were all dirty and

stuff. but now theyre all kinda sophisticated and neat and stuff like that?

They were doing that to fool the people from the plane crash.

I dont think the island has healing properties. we dont know that roses cancer is really gone, and we certainly dont know anything about lockes legs. (it could be a purely psychological handicap, the way it comes and goes seems to strengthen the idea)

When that metal door shut down on Locke's leg in the hatch... Didn't it seem like that wound healed pretty quickly? It was only like 2 or 3 episodes that he couldn't walk.

What was with Locke not being able to talk after the hatch blew up? What was that all about?

I think Ben really does have cancer, and I think only Rose and Locke were cured.

It makes sense. The Island is *picky*

It doesn't kill everyone - therefore it also doesn't heal everyone. Rose and Locke are pure of heart (well, Locke *was* at any rate). Remember how she knew her husband wasn't dead?

There is something more powerful at work here than we know. The Monster kills - something else heals.

Do the monster always go after people who have killed other people?

I mean... eko killed people. Kate did, and she saw the monster turned into a horse. I can't remember if jack did, but maybe he can be blamed for some death(s), since he's a doctor...

And Locke, we dont know, 'cause we didnt get to see if he killed that cop or not... but we can only assume!

Didnt Jack see his dad on the beach even tho he was dead...maybe that could Smokey telling him something :s

I believe it was trying to kill Jack. Remember that his father led him to a cliff that Jack almost fell off of. It would make sense that if the monster is trying to kill people it would find the easiest way and Jack following his father's image over a cliff is pretty easy way to kill him.

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets big bug-fixing and balancing update by Taras Buria Today, Playground Games released a big Forza Horizon 6 update with a long list of fixes, patches, and balancing tweaks that the studio promised earlier. Version 375.327 is now available on Steam, Microsoft Store, and Xbox, offering users improvements for AI, audio, design, performance, road discovery, upgrades, visuals, online play, and more. Some of the most notable changes in the Series 2 update include rebalanced drivatars, particularly their difficulty and race start behavior. As such, the game should be more balanced on higher difficulty levels, and AI cars should not shoot out when the race starts as if they have rocket boosters. Speaking of difficulty, developers nerfed Drag Tires physics for a more expected and realistic behavior. They are no longer the go-to option for record-breaking times in road racing, and all leaderboard entries with drag tires will be removed. Completionists will also be glad to get a new feature that lets you see road discovery percentage in each region, which should make discovering all roads easier while keeping it quite challenging and interesting (I spent quite a long time finding the last road). Festival Playlist is also getting some much-needed fixes, including patches for bugs that allowed completing Seasonal Jobs ahead of time or where weekly challenges would not unlock for some players. Developers will retroactively give reward points to all who could not complete all challenges due to these bugs. Other changes include changes to Horizon Play progression so that it is easier to reach Level 100, audio improvements on lower-spec devices, fixes for visual glitches, including pixelated smoke, and more. Developers also addressed the currently non-working Eliminator, an online mode gamers used to farm credits with a Hummer EV exploit. Playground Games plans to re-enable it soon. As a gesture of goodwill, players will get a free McLaren Sabre. Those who used the exploit will not be banned, but developers plan to roll back credits to a maximum of 10M for all who farmed credits using the exploit. You can find the complete changelog for the latest Forza Horizon 6 update here.

    • Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced that Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot is now generally available to all users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Planner Agent is the latest addition in the string of AI features that Microsoft is implementing across virtually all of its products. The agent lets you manage tasks through natural language prompts directly inside Microsoft 365 Copilot. You can create and update tasks, check priorities, and get insights about current entries without leaving the chat interface. The general availability release comes with a handful of new additions on top of what was available during the initial rollout. A new plan picker lets you search and filter your plans by name, then update task names, statuses, due dates, or priorities through the agent. There's also a goals bucket now, which lets you group tasks under specific goals. This builds on the Goals view, a feature that was introduced as part of the broader Planner refresh that rolled out earlier. Image: Microsoft | Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot All AI-generated plans and tasks are created in draft mode by default, so you can review and approve changes before anything goes through. This is actually a thoughtful safety feature, because trusting AI to handle all your tasks without a human in the loop is usually a recipe for disaster. Having tasks initially saved as drafts is the best possible middle ground. Microsoft also says that not all tasks are executed equally. Simple tasks get processed quickly, while more complex ones, like building a plan from a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file, are handed to a more capable model. Microsoft says this approach delivers the best performance, but it could also help with usage management, as you won't have to waste tokens on performing simple tasks. Planner Agent is available now across Teams, Loop, SharePoint, and other Microsoft 365 apps for anyone on a Microsoft 365 Copilot subscription.
