the polar bear in the desert isnt "ancient" one of the chicks said "is it a dinosaur?" and the other chick said "your off by a couple of million years" or something to that effect. i think the polar bear has onely been there no more than 3 decades and has decade super fast thanks to the desert. what it is doing there, i have no clue.

im so frusterated that they only come up with more questions and no answers! all of you are happy that they answered something, did we watch the same episode? what did they answer? i literally jumped out of my seat when locke grabbed ben and asked him (might i add out of the millions of questions he could have picked from) what is the black smoke monster!? OMG, that is a question that they should have asked the moment they say that thing in season one! lol, and what happened ben : "i dont know" oh $#@$ you! hahahaha

im not liking any of the new people on the team sent to the island, they are annoying and shallow. im glad to get all of their origin stories out of the way in one episode!

oh and it is pretty obvious that they are DHARMA and they are still ****ed. ****ED. they want ben, either to kill him or interrogate him, and they want the island back. i think the islands is tied up somehow with time and other world s parodoxies you can see this with the others not aging (others not ben) and when we saw jack's double at the end of the other season in the antarctic. great show, they got me hooked, but i think thats what lost is! its a series of mysteries and questions that never get answered , because not answering the questions IS THE SHOW!

anyone think Ben's (undercover) man on the boat could be Michael?

That's a great question, but I could see some possible issues. When did the freighter leave port? If Ben knew about the boat prior to 815 ever crashing, it's likely Ben's inside man was there from the get go. Michael's only concern was getting him and his son off of the island, so why would he continue doing work for Ben after having escaped? Still, it's not a bad theory.

^You do remember Walt is back.....so...Michael must be too.

Of course I know that, Michael being picked up by the freighter would make it possible for him to be Ben's inside man.... or maybe it's Walt? After all, as noted, Michael wanted off the island. Walt, on the other hand, did not.

So heres a discussion topic. As far as I remember, this was the first time we've ever been told on screen exactly where we were. The locations given were:

Essex, Mass

Inglewood, California

Eleuthera, The Bahamas

Medenine, Tunisia

Now, if you draw connecting lines between those, you end up in the Bermuda Triangle, off the coast of Florida. According to Google Earth, the spot is roughly at the point where the Solid Rocket Booster collection point is for a shuttle launch.

Interestingly enough, the antipodal point (exactly opposite on the earth) is just off the west coast of Australia.

I've tried to work it out in Google Earth, but how do these locations connect/intersect Bermuda?

All these spectulations are totally cool and fun, but I just hope in the end the answer/explanation lives up to it, you know? And, we not let down by a "We knew it all along, but the producers Kept denying it"...

I will say this, if by the end of the show, if indeed everything can be explained by PURE science I will declare this show the BEST SHOW EVER! :)

Did I miss "taller Walt"? I don't remember seeing him. Was he in one of the last episodes of the previous season when John was shot, laying in the pit? Was it a vision or actually Walt? One of the most annoying things for me about Lost is Michael and Walt leaving about an entire season ago and not being seen since!

He saw walt when he was "dying" but don't forget Walt is gifted so it wouldn't surprise me if projected himself on Locke to spur him on.

Uhm, if they LEFT, why would you see them?

And technically, Walt has been gone since the end of S1.

"Taller Walt" was in 'Through the Looking Glass'. Don't know how you missed it.

'Special', not gifted. What confused me was that Locke was describing Walt as it it was actually Walt. Why wouldn't Locke think that it was just the island showing him things, as had been happening to him for the entire time hes been there.

Don't forget he was briefly seen at the end of season two, when Michael finally got the boat :yes:

Right, and he has 'appeared' many other times. He was also in 'Three Minutes'. But he has been gone from the survivors since S1.

Decent thought, but if Michael was on the boat, wouldn't that convince the survivors not to go there? Since they know he killed Ana Lucia and Libby?

Doesn't prove much though. She said 'a few million years'. Dinosaurs died out 65 million years ago.

I'm confident they will tie up all the important parts.

As far as Locke asking about the smoke monster: Remember that he has 'looked into it' and also nearly been taken underground by it. There is no other single question that Ben could have answered right then and there, really. All the other questions would require an explanation.

im not liking any of the new people on the team sent to the island, they are annoying and shallow. im glad to get all of their origin stories out of the way in one episode!

Agreed, except for the pilot. I don't know why, but his story seemed much more interesting than the rest of them.

Only Richard Alpert is shown not to age. We don't know about the rest of them.

I agree that they are DHARMA.

Jack's double? Are you saying that because they looked alike? It wasn't Jack or even alluding to be him.

Dunno maybe he just believes that he is there is some way.

Unless once Locke got out it actually WAS Walt. We didn't see that happen though.

Two other tidbits:

Daniel Faraday is a reference to Michael Faraday, a physicist who studied -- you guessed it -- magnetic fields.

Charlotte Lewis was given a middle name in the episode. Staples. Charlotte Staples Lewis. Or C. S. Lewis. He wrote 'The Chronicles of Narnia' among many other things.

No idea on the other two yet. Lapidus has quite a few things it could be.

Edit: Found out it was Miles Straume. Looking now.

Here's a theory.

What if the 'man' on the boat is ....

Annie.

Never thought about that actually, people have wondered where she went.

They didn't show her dead. I would figure they would do that. She was the only person he cared about.

She must be alive - somewhere.

And it stands to reason he would send her off the island, so she wouldn't die if she got pregnant.

Yeah I wondered why they never showed that which makes you think Ben moved her away just before the purge went down.

I wish someone would leak the episodes :p

Anyone remember when that happened with Prison Break? At one point I actually think episodes were leaked a few eps later than the current :laugh: People even watched them not knowing exactly what had happened inbetween!

ps. /methinks Rappy :heart: 's Lost!

    • too bad the "backend" June 2026 ESD files are still at build 26200.8653 and not at the correct build 26200.8655 release. I'll avoid using the MCT for several weeks until late July 2026
    • Qualcomm's new Snapdragon Reality Elite chip brings on-device AI to Android XR devices by Pradeep Viswanathan Qualcomm has been delivering dedicated SoCs for mixed reality and spatial computing devices for several years. The journey started with the Snapdragon XR1, followed by the Snapdragon XR2 in 2019, the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 in September 2023, and finally the Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 in 2024. Today, Qualcomm announced a major upgrade with the new Snapdragon Reality Elite Platform, which targets premium mixed reality and spatial computing devices. OEMs can use this SoC to power both all-in-one video-see-through headsets and lightweight, tethered optical-see-through glasses. Qualcomm highlighted that the Snapdragon Reality Elite will power the next wave of Android XR devices coming later this year. These wearables will offer better visuals, improved power efficiency, and deeper on-device AI integration compared to the previous generation. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can deliver up to 48 TOPS of AI performance, allowing large language models and large vision models to run directly on the device for the first time. In addition to enabling new spatial AI experiences, these new AI capabilities will improve head and hand tracking, as well as see-through features. On the performance side, the Snapdragon Reality Elite offers up to 60% higher GPU performance, up to 30% higher CPU performance, and up to 160% higher NPU performance compared to the previous generation. The platform supports visuals of up to 4.4K per eye at 90 frames per second for sharper images and smoother motion. Qualcomm is also claiming significant efficiency improvements. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can offer up to 20% longer battery life under the same workload. More importantly, the chipset can run up to 12 degrees Celsius cooler under load, making headsets more comfortable for users to wear for longer periods. The platform also includes improvements to video see-through, featuring lower latency and better image quality. Qualcomm states that its EVA hardware block helps accelerate demanding computer vision workloads, improving how digital content blends with the real world.
    • Umm... GitHub continues to use AWS. That's the story, that's the headline. There's no "new" news here. GitHub continues to require additional capacity beyond the originally-planned Azure allocations. There's nothing special about this; nothing noteworthy. They're still using AWS' infra until the cutover is complete.
