"The Others"
We know tons more than we did, and there are tons more questions, so let's start asking them. How did they get there? -The Black Rock ship, is the obvious assumption at this point. Washed far far inland during a tsunami? How long have the others been there? -That ship looks OLD, archaic and stylized. 100 years or more? Which could mean that generations have been born on the Island. Why do they want babies? -My theory: If they have been there a while, there is the chance of major inbreeding and they need fresh blood. Of course, with that theory comes the one that they would want women of reproductive age too. Creepy. The Black Rock Ship: -Is it deserted now? And why would they leave TNT on it? The Other's Territory: - It looks to be marked out, as Danielle pointed out. But did THEY mark it out or her? And if so, who needs to be kept out of it? Just Danielle or are the Others split into groups too. Whew.

1. "RE: The Others"

Where does Ethan fit into this?
Ethan appeared to dress, talk & act like a "modern" guy. Was he born into a generation of the Others, or was he a newly shipwrecked addition?
Do the Others & the rafters meet?
Do the rafters become Others?

2. "RE: The Others"

Hmmm, yeah. Where does Ethan fit in. If he was on the scientific mission and has gone over to the Others it would make sense to send him because he'd be the easiest to 'hide' in with the new people then people who had been on the island for generations.
Here's another question: How MANY of the others do you think there are? There has to be somewhere for them all to be - huge caves in the mountains?

If you remember, Ethan was clean shaven, short hair cut, semi-clean clothes. I really don't think he could be one of the pirates who has been there for awhile. He looked like he was kind of a geek so maybe he was sent there to research on the island and got sucked in... All I know is that he was creepy!

12. "Ethan"

This is what I have been struggling with as well. I don't think that Ethan is one of The Others. He kidnapped Claire and Claire had a flashback of Rousseau during that same time, so were Ethan and Rousseau in cahoots? Or was Rousseau trying to steal Claire away from Ethan. She wouldn't if Ethan was one of The Others, because the reason she wanted Claire was to exchange her for Alex with The Others.
Does anyone remember when Ethan told Charlie that he wanted Claire back, did he say "I want her back" or "We want her back"?
If he's not one of The Others, he's not French, he's not from Oceanic....who was he? (other than the GMD's cousin)

However...as discussed in another thread...
Unscramble ETHAN ROM and you get OTHER MAN.

3. "Prisoners"

I don't think that Ethan or Danielle are part of The Others.
Was anyone getting a 'Mad Max' vibe when The Others appeared to snatch Walt? Could the Island be prisoner colony...a modern day Australia?

4. "Transportation"

Remember, they've got at least one motorboat, which means they can potentially get back to civilization to resupply, kidnap, and generally wreak havoc whenever they feel like it -- unless the island won't let them leave. But there's at least the possibility that they can come and go as they please.
If any of the raft three make it back to the beach or caves, a major priority in Season #2 may be the theft of that boat.

Not sure if that little boat is capable of a transoceanic voyage.
Would probably capsize the first big swell that comes along.

Does anyone else think the blonde girl who threw the bomb on the raft is Alex? She looks like she would be around 16 years old.

We paused on her to try to analyze. She looked like she'd had a rough life, one of those people who could be 16 or 38... can anyone post a screen shot?

8. "RE: The Others"

I thought it looked like a girl too. But interestingly the ABC LOST summary says it is a man. (Misdirection?)
http://abc.go.com/primetime/lost/episodes/2004-05/24.html
One of the men in the boat pulls his gun -- and he's faster than Sawyer. Sawyer is shot and falls off the raft into the water. Jin jumps in after him. When Michael moves to help, one of the other men on the boat boards the raft and takes Walt, bringing him back on board the boat. Michael tries to stop them, but he too is knocked into the water. Another man on the boat throws something on the raft and before we know it, the whole thing explodes. As Michael drifts among the wreckage he can hear the screams of his son, pleading for him to come and save him as he is being pulled away into the darkness. And as Michael screams after him he is left to watch his son disappear.

9. "RE: The Others"

Both my hubby and I thought the person who threw the bomb onto the raft was that weirdo french chick too so we went in slow mo with our DVR then paused when her face appeared on screen.
It was definately a WOMAN who threw the bomb but it was definately NOT the french chick.
