Lost in “Blog”land
First time blogger, long time lurker. You will find random thoughts here as well as Lost rantings – with lots of comments from you, I hope!
Feel free to say anything you want, as long as it’s complimentary to me of course!
As promised, here are my (continued, for my work friends) thoughts from last week’s Lost “Abandoned.”
1. Wondering what Walt was saying to Shannon? ”They’re coming and they’re close.” (backwards)
2. What if it was DANIELLE that killed Shannon? She had access to a gun. What if she shoots Shannon and runs. Ana Lucia could have been standing there ready to shoot Danielle but doesn’t take her shot. Everyone thinks it’s Ana Lucia, maybe they don’t see Danielle as she does know the forest. It’s an interesting set up because everyone will just know that they heard a shot and Ana Lucia has a gun. What will save her butt is when Sawyer wakes up and he tells everyone that there was only one bullet. Of course, then Ana Lucia will produce the gun and show them one bullet.
3. Danielle did warn Sayid to watch his group for anyone acting strange. Maybe she saw Shannon running around and was somehow “protecting” Sayid in her mind. We did see some odd POV shots last week and my sister made the comment that it was like someone was watching them. I kept thinking someone was going to jump from out of the trees the way they kept framing Sayid and Shannon in the shots. Danielle probably heard the whispers as did everyone out in the forest and thought Shannon was one of the others.
4. Maybe Sayid DID see Danielle shoot Shannon. That would explain the look on his face. Maybe the reaction we see in the previews from Ana Lucia is from her grief knowing she could have saved Shannon but didn’t take the shot. This could lead to her flashbacks as a cop. OR Danielle used something else to kill Shannon and Ana Lucia DID take the shot at Danielle. OR Danielle kills Shannon and almost simultaneously Ana Lucia shoots Danielle to stop her. Danielle is laying on the ground but Sayid looks up and only sees Ana Lucia. Lots of possibilities but I would guess that this somehow leads back to Ana Lucia’s days as a cop and how she thinks she should have saved someone. Maybe the cross over is that she arrests Kate!
5. Previews from this week’s show a clip on the beach after The Other’s had just taken some of the survivors (tail enders), and Ana Lucia finds a paper on the beach that The Others had left behind. What if it was a list with all their names on it. Maybe the tailenders weren’t supposed to survive and that is why they are killing them. OR maybe they are checking of the children or survivors that they need.
Here are synopsis of the next upcoming episodes:

Am I the first to comment?!? Lucky me! Just goes to show that we share an obsession, albeit pointless sometimes, still great fun.
Anyway, I really like your theory on Danielle. It’s seriously plausible and would make for a great twist. However, I read something online that “confirms” that Ana Lucia shot Shannon…
“She shot Shannon; what’s Ana Lucia’s next target?
By William Keck, USA TODAY
WEST HOLLYWOOD — Last week, Michelle Rodriguez became the most despised person on television when her Lost character, Ana Lucia, accidentally killed Shannon (Maggie Grace) with a gunshot to the chest. Though that’s the reaction Lost producers had hoped for, Rodriguez was irate when she read the script.”
There was more to the article, but this is the gist of it. However, when I Googled it, I couldn’t actually find the original article. So I’m going with your theory for now. Time will tell. It’s the waiting that drives me crazy!

Question to ponder…
Why was Bernard in a seat? Didn’t Rose say he was in the bathroom?

So far as Bernard in a seat, I think a rationale explanation is that as soon as the turbulence started he was required to or voluntarily took the first seat available outside of the bathroom – which would have still put him in the back of the plane – and strapped down.

Personally I like the theory that Danielle did it, but it looks like they might actually have Ana Lucia be the shooter. Take a look at this post on another forum:

You’ll have to cut and past the above into your browser’s address bar. It was too long to put into the comment without screwing it up. Grr.
If you click on the thread link at the top you can read the rest of the thread too. I’ll be disappointed if they really showed us the real shooter that quickly since I thought they said it would *not* be who you originally thought it was. Ahhh… Well, only a few more days to go.

If Ana Lucia didn’t kill Shannon, still, i think she has her bad side … Hmm, the others can take her and she can be on there side it whuld be so much interesting…
