because if "The island doesn't want him to die" then The island have powers everywhere in the world and that just plain stupid imo.

Although it does sound far fetch even for Lost, I think the island does have powers outside the island. Tom can't be sure Michael won't try other ways to kill himself. If infact he did tampered with the gun.

Im just worry to post (after I get a moderator PM... After someone request to him to PM me... ) on this thread because anything I say will be labeled as inmature but its me or when the lastest ep start, when they say "previously on lost" and we see images of the other seasons, all of them looks a way younger. I mean, Jack looks like his own lil brother, the same with michael and no talking about Kate... The only who looks the same is Locke, heh.

I saying this because its supposed that they dont get older on that island and get cured of all the diseases they have.

Yeah for example if he went to throw himself in front of a train could Tom stop that?

I spose its cos actors age?

The headstone implied that he died in the plane crash, so that's obviously the cover story they told people. We know he survived the crash, and it's possible that he either died on the island, or is still alive and stayed on the island for some reason.

But why does Sun go to his grave when it says he did on Sep 22/04 which she knows is false.

AOL getting carried away?

I hope so. I sooo want a Danielle flashback.

Why is it so hard for you people to believe "The island doesn't want him to die?"

I remember reading somewhere that the writers had claimed that pretty much everything can be explained scientificially - bleeding edge science fiction but still science.

But, I dont see things like these being explained via science. I actually think scenes like these are just gonna be overlooked in the end and put down to co-incidence, like they did with the numbers thing. They created so much of hype around it and then put it down just to co-incidence.

This is probably posted!

Blake Bashoff had a post-death interview with Kristin from E!Online.

Where he mentions some minor spoilers and confirmed that:

1) He "thinks" Karl is dead

2) He mentions that there is a deleted scene from the end of the episode that clearly showed the snipers in "camouflage uniforms"

3) Producers told him that they "We hope to have you back in some capacity"

4) That he has a "sense" we have not seen the last of Rousseau

I doubt she would give up that easy.

Give up on what? We don't know the circumstances that lead to only those six being sent back, but we know that it was only those six and that it was probably made clear that they could never go back. We know that the story doesn't just end with the six getting off the island, that they'll be going back. There's literally nothing she can do except visit the only thing she has to resemble Jin. Now, it could work out that Jin does die and his body was brought back and buried, thus being one of the surviving eight, but ones that "Kate was unable to save."

I am not saying I am a gun expert, but I have owned and fired several pistols. Just exactly what part of the hammer do you guys think is faulty in that pistol Michael has?

I know almost diddly squat about guns...but in the pictures posted a page or two back, it definitely looks to not be there on his gun :p

I am pretty sure the hammer hits a pin that hits the ass end of the bullet (yes, that is the technical term ;)). I don't think the hammer has a pointy pin on it.

That could also be for the actor's safety...taking the pin out would make absolutely sure the gun cannot fire...avoiding mistakes and all that.

Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz, co-executive producers of ABC's Lost, told SCI FI Wire that the current season's final batch of new episodes will unspool a story arc based on a plan devised in anticipation of the writers' strike.

"The last two weeks before the strike, we actually sat down and said, 'Here is what we want to tell for the rest of the season,'" Kitsis said in an interview. "We all sat down, and the entire staff came up with a battle plan in place."

When Lost returns in late April, it will wrap up the fourth season with five episodes, three fewer than planned before the strike took place. "We got to tell a little more story this season than we anticipated," Kitsis said. "It's really worked out well. We came back from the strike, and everyone is just really excited, and I have to say, creatively, every day has been a pleasure. Everything we're doing right now is exciting, and every script that is going out, you're jealous if you didn't write it."

As for the missing episodes? "I feel that the three missing episodes will be made up over the course of the next two seasons," Horowitz said. "Seasons four, five and six are meant to encompass 48 episodes."

Kitsis added: "I have a feeling it will mean more, like, two-hour shows as opposed to more episodes, but those are decisions above our pay grade."

Season four has so far been marked with a continuation of the "flash-forward" storytelling technique introduced in the finale of season three. "This just seemed like the most interesting way to tell the rest of the story of the show," Kitsis said. "When we realized that we were only going to do three more seasons, it enabled us to starting thinking a little more out of the box in how we want to tell the remaining story that was left. The flash-forwards are, I think, just a great way to keep the show energized and tell the story in an interesting way. It was a brilliant idea by [executive producer] Damon [Lindelof]."

In his most recent post, Ausiello mentions that Jack will get a centric episode this season. He does not confirm which episode, but I believe previous rumors state that Jack will get the season finale or part of it at least.

He also mentions what Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof told us this week in their most recent podcast, that this season finale's key moment is called "The Frozen Donkey Wheel".

I don't know about you guys, but that code name makes me laugh every time I think about it. Not because of what it could mean, but that Darlton would actually come up with something like that...!?

Also, is it me or did Ausiello's reader Holly ask him to answer a question other than Grey's or LOST and he completely did the opposite. Not sure if it was a typo, but here you go...the more LOST we get the better!!

Question: How about you answer questions about other shows besides Lost and Grey's Anatomy?? Holly

b>

Ausiello: You're going to make me choose between those two? OK, I pick Lost. In their weekly podcast, Team Darlton announced that the code name for this year's season-ending twist is "The Frozen Donkey Wheel." Interpret as you like. Oh, and here's the kicker: It's not even the last scene of the episode!Question: Jack is my constant. Will my constant get a centric episode this season? ? Laura

Ausiello: Yes.

Thanks to my friend Mike who is part of the ABC Advisory Panel who sent through the latest set of questions to me. One of them concerned Danielle's death as you can see below. Are ABC trying to gauge the response or is she really dead? Surely with episode 4.09 filmed and 4.10 currently being filmed it's a little late to be gauging the response if they plan to change the storyline.

Things are not looking good for the "crazy French chick".

1) We will learn "exactly" what happened to Michael between leaving the island and him getting to NYC.

2) Michael is a "pivotal" part of the end of the season and he will have an "impact" on many of the characters, including Sayid.

3) We will see how the Oceanic 6 "escaped the island" and what happens to those that don't leave.

4) The Team Locke v Team Jack debate about who is right will "amplify"

5) We will learn who is in the coffin

6) More about the freighter people

7) We will also find out who "seemingly killed" Karl and Rousseau

Will be awesome to learn these things!

    • Rufus 4.15.2391 Beta by Razvan Serea Rufus is a small utility that helps format and create bootable USB flash drives, such as USB keys/pendrives, memory sticks, etc. Despite its small size, Rufus provides everything you need! Oh, and Rufus is fast. For instance it's about twice as fast as UNetbootin, Universal USB Installer or Windows 7 USB download tool, on the creation of a Windows 7 USB installation drive from an ISO (with honorable mention to WiNToBootic for managing to keep up). It is also marginally faster on the creation of Linux bootable USBs from ISOs. A non-exhaustive list of Rufus supported ISOs is available here. It can be especially useful for cases where: you need to create USB installation media from bootable ISOs (Windows, Linux, UEFI, etc.) you need to work on a system that doesn't have an OS installed you need to flash a BIOS or other firmware from DOS you want to run a low-level utility Rufus 4.15.2391 Beta changelog: Improve the guards for using the "silent" option Improve the ability to cancel during write retries Fix unrestricted XML entity expansion and integer overflow in ezxml parser (courtesy of @esadowski4) [GHSA-55r2-34wg-8mv9] Fix "silent" Windows installation failing at 75% in most cases [#2960] Fix a crash during boot when using UEFI:NTFS on Snapdragon X based ARM64 platforms [#2934] Fix the first WUE option always being checked by default [#2965] Fix an infinite loop when using Windows ISOs that contain multiple WIMs Fix "Enable runtime UEFI media validation" checkbox not always being properly enabled Other WUE improvements/fixes for OneDrive removal and username validation (with thanks to @christian8641) [#2984, #2991] Download: Rufus 4.15 Beta | 1.9 MB (Open Source) Links: Rufus Home Page | Project Page @GitHub | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware

    • Microsoft will finally let you sign in to Edge with a Google account by Usama Jawad As things currently stand, Microsoft Edge only allows you to sign in to the browser with a Microsoft Account (MSA). This allows you to sync your browser settings and other data across other devices, as long as you sign in with the same account. However, Microsoft is now modifying this mechanism in a way that will likely please many users. In an update to its Microsoft 365 Roadmap, Microsoft has indicated that it will soon let users sign into Edge using a Google account from the profile menu and the Edge sign-in screen. This will be in addition to the MSA login option, and it opens up new doors for people who prefer using Edge, but cannot be bothered to configure a Microsoft account. This brings several advantages such as the ability to sync your data across devices using just a Google account. It may even facilitate flexible single sign-on (SSO) experiences where you can quickly login to websites and services through a single Google account that is presented as the preferred sign-in option. Up until now, Microsoft allowed customers to indirectly use a Google account, by configuring a Google account as a Microsoft account, or by setting up a one-way sync option between Edge and Chrome. This is a rather interesting development, especially considering that Google Chrome still limits you to a Google account sign-in, but it will be interesting to see if the company reciprocates Microsoft's gesture in the future. This is not the only recent instance in which Microsoft has extended a handshake to Google via Edge. In April 2026, it began tracking the development of a work search banner for Google Search queries, just like the one present in Edge. However, if we go back almost seven years, to January 2020, Microsoft had emphasized that it had no plans to "integrate Google services into Microsoft Edge by default", in response to people requesting Google sign-in services on Edge. Fast-forward to today, and Microsoft is planning to release this feature in July 2026, with IT admins having the option to control its availability on Windows and macOS through the NonMicrosoftAccountSignInEnabled policy.
