From the spoilers revealed, we find Miles, Sawyer, etc in Dharma clothes. So, one can only assume they are stuck in the 1970s. We also see Jack and co. in Dharma clothes, so they arrive at the Island in its past - 1970s while DI was still on the Island.

Good, bvecause I want to know more about the DI and what the hell it is? why they're there? do they know what the island is? how come they left? why they were watching the hatch? So many questions. . .

Your questions have already been touched on if not fully answered already by the plot and/or interviews with the writers. Have a quick read over here: http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/DHARMA_Initiative

Indeed, one great episode.

One thing that I fail at getting right: The O6 have been off the Island for 3 years now. Back at the Island, it seems not so much time have passed (Jin just made it to the Island). Anyone to shed some light on this one ?

Their bodies are what they are in early 2005, but at some point the island will be in 2008 at some location because the O6 get back, somehow. Theoretically, they'll skip those three years if or when the island moves/shifts to 2008.

That I get. What I mean is, if the O6 have been off the Island for 3 years time period, why hasn't the ones on the Island experienced the same "period of time", regardless of the date ? :/

Well because they're skipping around in time, so they could easily speak 3 years out or go back 3 years with no "period of time". I think John turning the wheel must of landed him in 2007.

uhmm.....

Even if they are traveling back and forth through time, they are still living in their present, hence living their lives in the future of the present. Present being whatever time they jump into. So, I think once the Island stopped in the 1970s - those people who are from the future (Sawyer, Miles, etc.) live 3 years of their life on the Island with Dharma folk in the 70s (possibly as Dharma workers and/or Hostiles).

From what we know now, I think the time jumping part took approx. ~ 1 week from the 3 years the O6 + Ben have been living. So, when Locke jumps back to original timeline, he probably lives out his life in those 2-3 years with the O6 + Ben before they all go back to the Island in 1970s.

Though I could be wrong on this. There is a 31 minute differences between the Island's snow-globe region and rest of the Earth. So, this may play into the slower time of the people on the Island in comparison to the O6 + Ben, etc. I think with next week's episode, things might get a bit clearer with regards to the timelines.

Jin Spills Some Upcoming Stuff!

The "smoke monster" has plagued our castaways since the show began, and is famous for having killed Mr. Eko. Producer Damon Lindelof has called it "one of the biggest secrets."

Not only will viewers get to see its lair, but Kim says the monster is "as old as the island."

In regards to the atomic bomb that was recently discovered on the island, Kim suggests that we'll find more about that as the series wraps up.

"That's a huge red herring if it's a red herring," he said. Nothing is ever just a coincidence on this island, so we'll be seeing the bomb again.

Last but definitely not least, Kim also said that viewers shouldn't get too worked up over a reunion of Jin and his wife Sun (played by Yunjin Kim) just yet. Fans only recently found out that Jin had survived the freighter explosion, and even Sun thinks he is dead.

Though Sun will return to the island, Kim said the events don't mean "they're particularly in the same place or chronologically in the same time."

Next episode is shaping up to be one of the best of the season from promos and screencaps. I hope when the O6 return back to the island we get to see heaps of Dharma and presumably we will if they are stuck in the 1970's. Just to clear something up, at the end of the previous episode where they show the Frozen Donkey Wheel and it is turning flashing green light behind it, it is dislodged and spinning out of control causing the time to skip to rapidly and once Locke puts it back in place it will be fixed though in a random time zone (presumably 1970)?

Well considering the events that *just* occurred on the island (as we see it) are of the "real" timeline, Jin after the explosion of the boat and wreckage was at the "real" timeline, hence Rousseau meeting Jin (in the past) are events on the "real" alternate timeline. Rousseau wouldn't have recognized Jin before because it was from the "different" timeline, so shouldn't Rousseau only recognize Jin starting from *now* meaning at the "real" timeline, but she would suddenly remember meeting Jin from her memories, where as when she saw him previously it would not have occured.

No, that be a mistake thinking of a parallel/alternate/different timeline occurring. By your reasoning, after Ethan shot Locke, then next flash (next alternate timeline), Alpert shouldn't have been able to know that event occurred.

Just two more days until we get some clarity on the time travel issue.

    • HONOR Robot Phone unveils first Cinematic Video at Shanghai International Film Festival

      By Steven P. · Posted

      HONOR Robot Phone unveils first Cinematic Video at Shanghai International Film Festival by Steven Parker Global AI device ecosystem company HONOR announced on June 13 that its revolutionary HONOR Robot Phone made its professional imaging debut at the 28th Shanghai International Film Festival (SIFF), demonstrating the result of its mobile videography capabilities for the first time. As the official mobile photography and videography partner of the 28th Shanghai International Film Festival, HONOR empowers this premier cinematic event with cutting-edge mobile imaging technology. Marking the global debut of the first cinematic video it captured, Robot Phone breaks down the boundaries between mobile imaging and professional filmmaking, ushering in a new paradigm for the deep integration of technology and cinematic art. In the video published on HONOR’s official channel (above), Robot Phone was used byELLEMEN to capture cinematic video portraits for the SIFF jury members. With its exceptional stability and cinema-grade imaging capabilities, the device redefines the art of portrait filmmaking, faithfully reproducing the rich tonal gradations and nuanced color transitions associated with film photography. The result is a new level of visual sophistication, creating high-end cinematic imagery that seamlessly blends atmosphere with narrative tension. The video released for the Robot Phone showcases the powerful stabilization capabilities of its built-in gimbal system, delivering exceptionally smooth handheld camera movement while preserving full image quality. By minimizing reliance on electronic image stabilization, the device effectively avoids the image cropping and quality loss typically associated with digital stabilization methods. Representing an innovative leap in form factor, the HONOR Robot Phone features the industry's smallest titanium alloy gimbal, delivering ultra-precision, extreme flexibility, and superior stability. Driven by high-performance motors, the gimbal rises dynamically, breaking free from the physical limitations of traditional camera modules. Combined with advanced AI algorithms that enable intelligent object tracking and various movements with stable shots, the device significantly simplifies video creation and reshapes both the equipment choices and creative habits of modern users. Notably, the Robot Phone will be the first product that features the results of HONOR's strategic technological partnership with ARRI, the world-renowned designer and manufacturer of professional camera technology for cinematic storytelling. From Cannes to Shanghai, the HONOR Robot Phone continues to lead the mobile imaging industry into an entirely new stage of development. Moving forward, HONOR will leverage cutting-edge AI and mobile imaging technologies to unlock new creative possibilities and extend cinematic standards for visual expression from the world of high-end filmmaking to the next generation of content creators.

      I'll wait for the root cause analysis. Looks like it's HP, Lenova, and certain configurations that are askew, hardly "all of windows." Time will tell.

      I had issues with my NVME, it was running really slow (like 2/3 mb bandwidth) ... had to reverted via System Restore and all is fine now.
