Richard being there when Locke was a baby definitely gives more proof that he is immortal or ages very slowly, and then there was the black orderly who was pushing Locke around in his wheel chair, the same guy who went to Hurley asking about the island in the season opener.

Yes and he also worked with Naomi so that means he works for Widmore. So one could assume Widmore was interested in Locke as well. Would that also open the possibility of Richard at one time working for Widmore as well? Probably not, but that might be interesting.

This is from my post at AICN:

What about the doctor?

The freighter gets word from the island that the doctor has washed up with his throat slit. That one guy tells the doctor, who has no idea what he's talking about. Finally, Keamy, who didn't hear the Morse Code message, ends up slitting the doctor's throat and throwing him over the edge.

Doesn't this mean that the doctor's physical body was transported back in time when it floated to the island? Or am I missing something?

Seems like Richard may be sort of an observer in the grand scheme of things and once in a while giving a little nudge to make sure stuff is going a certain way. Same with the guy pushing Locke around in the wheel chair. They seem to pop up every so often at certain points in time and try influence certain people or events.

So about the island / time travel thing

it seems unless you have the right trajectory to the island, outside going to the island is forward in time, island off to the boat is back in time. So if you go to the island then back to the boat, everything seems normal. But for the islanders, they always see whats 'in the future' for everyone outside of the island...hmm i had another thought for something that could cause but i forgot

Actually no. Remember they shot the gun thing, and it took like 20 minutes before it reached the island, well in your theory the projectile would have reached the island 20 minutes before it was fired.

Wow just wow, what a great episode, I wonder what's the device that Kimy has on his arm... maybe some kind of weapon?, or protection?

The only thing that makes sense to me is it's some kind of device that controls his fear level, or something. Becuase I remember that one african-american with the big stick or whatever, came face to face with that black smoke, but it didn't harm him. So maybe it's some kind of device that lets him know when his fear levels are up? IDK!

But this season has been amazing so far. LOVE IT!!

I think that Richard is a time traveler, like Ben. That's why we keep seeing him in the same age.

He travels "into" the flashes and events that are relevant and changes something \ intervene.

And what do you say about Kimis gun.. Island protection again? :/

    • Glad these prices are starting to come down, but that is still crazy. I bought the 2TB 9100 Pro (slightly more expensive version with PCIe 5.0) last year for $240.
    • The 2TB Samsung 990 PRO NVMe SSD hits lowest price in over three months by Sayan Sen Yesterday, we covered a really good deal wherein you can get a 4TB TeamGroup T-FORCE G50 NVMe PCIe Gen4 SSD for a low price of just $400 with a special discount coupon. That's just $100 per TB, making it a very good offer during these hard times. The deal is still live, so you can check it out in its dedicated article here if you do not want to miss out. Meanwhile, if you don't have that kind of budget but still wish to buy an SSD for a good price, the 2TB variant of the TeamGroup SSD at $280 its lowest price in over three months. Meanwhile, those seeking 2TB but faster performance can check out Samsung's 990 PRO, which has hit the lowest price also in the last quarter or so, as it's on sale for $370 (purchase links under the specs table down below). Thus, you want a faster drive, get the 990 Pro, or you want more capacity, grab the TeamGroup 4TB linked in the first para. The 990 PRO is a PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD and still one of the fastest drives available today for under $500. Speaking of fast, sequential reads and writes are rated at 7450 MB/s and 6900 MB/s, respectively. The random throughputs for reads and writes are 1400K IOPS and 1550K IOPS, respectively. The 990 PRO is based on Samsung's 7th Gen V-NAND flash, and it too is TLC. It packs 2 gigs of LPDDR4 DRAM cache, which helps the random performance. The endurance rating for this is 1200 TBW (terabytes written), which should be sufficient for most users. The Samsung 990 PRO is compatible with the PlayStation 5, but if you are going to use the 990 PRO on a PC, check out the Samsung Magician app that lets you track your drive's health, update its firmware, customize various settings, and more. The tech specs are given below: Specification TeamGroup T-FORCE G50 2TB Samsung 990 PRO 2TB Interface PCIe 4.0 x4, NVMe 1.4 PCIe Gen 4.0 x4, NVMe 2.0 Form Factor M.2 2280 M.2 2280 Controller InnoGrit Controller Samsung In-house Controller NAND Flash 3D TLC 3D TLC DRAM Cache None (HMB supported) 2GB LPDDR4 Sequential Read (Max) 5,000 MB/s 7,450 MB/s Sequential Write (Max) 4,500 MB/s 6,900 MB/s Random Read (4K) Up to 600,000 IOPS Up to 1,400,000 IOPS Random Write (4K) Up to 700,000 IOPS Up to 1,550,000 IOPS TBW (Endurance) 1,300 TBW 1,200 TBW MTBF 3,000,000 hours 1,500,000 hours Operating Temperature 0°C to 70°C 0°C to 70°C Storage Temperature -40°C to 85°C -40°C to 85°C Shock Resistance 1,500G / 0.5ms 1,500G / 0.5ms Heatsink Patented Graphene Heat Spreader No Get them at the links below: Samsung 990 PRO SSD 2TB (MZ-V9P2T0B/AM): $369.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) TEAMGROUP T-Force G50 2TB SSD (TM8FFE002T0C129): $279.99 (Sold by TeamGroup, Shipped by Amazon US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • If you can't spell a simple word that 2nd graders learn, your entire argument is suspect.
    • And here goes the "Won't someone think of the children" brigade. Get stuffed mate. This has NOTHING to do with making the internet safe. It's about tracking adults, spying on your online activity, and sending the boys around when they don't like something you post. Also, again, parliament have voted TWICE against this, and Starmer is going ahead anyway. THAT is anti-democratic bullsh**. They will use this law to track you, they will use this law to control you, and they will use this law to punish you if they don't like what you do, even if it's legal. And your data? Say bye bye to that. It'll be on the darkweb in weeks. I'm not some rando online. I've been an IT professional for 40 years, many of it in security. I know exactly what this means and what will happen to your data. I do not consent and I will not comply.
    • "...but it may not be Microsoft's fault" seems like a reasonable way to tease what is going on without leaving the user with a false impression that an update is the problem. A title isn't a summery, it is meant to entice the user to read the article. It should not contain a misleading premise; which this title does not. You could maybe complain that the first paragraph should have included that detail. The writing style popularized over 100 years ago in newspapers will cover the most important information as soon as possible with details and nuance added later; the idea being that with each new paragraph you have less of the reader's focus.
