[@troubleondemand7703]

Yes, the picture of the new recruits of 1977 would have been hanging on that wall with our LOSTies since the beginning.

[@tony.g20]

Correct. They would be in the photo in 2004, but would not understand or remember it....because it hadn't happen to them yet. It does raise interesting questions about who, if anyone would have recognized them if the entire DI had not been wiped out during the 1992 purge when 51 members lost their lives.

[@eoinclarkpianist1768]

Yes, but this is also the paradox of time travel. In 2004 they hadn’t yet time traveled to 1977 so how could those events of 1977 have already happened and still not have happened yet?!?🧐

[@troubleondemand7703]

@@eoinclarkpianist1768 I don't think this one is a paradox. The picture was taken in 1977 and hung on that wall for 30 years. The picture didn't change like in Back to the Future, it always had the time traveling LOSTies in it. Whatever happened, happened. There is a scene that goes over this, but I am not sure if Elie has seen it yet, so I won't go into to it now.

[@pewburrito]

@@eoinclarkpianist1768 because 1977 comes before 2004, right? It doesn't matter what the temporal perspective is of the 815ers

[@Eowyn187]

James and Juliet had made a life for themselves. A good one. A happy one. It really bites that it got interrupted.

[@joshuacoldwater]

0:13 - YES, I agree “LaFleur” is one of the top episodes, Top 5.

[@RootEight]

Curious fact, Sayid's arrival to The Flame station made Radzinski create the security system that blows up the station if hostiles arrive inside The Flame... the year is 1977, that is the reason why the key to blow up The Flame is 77 (from episode enter 77)

[@John_Locke_108]

I'm gonna have to rewatch Enter 77 to look for a particular piece of evidence that could debunk that theory. But you could be right.

[@RootEight]

@@John_Locke_108 I cannot add more to the argument until the next episode, the only thing I can write is the same, it is the year 1977 and the event occurs in that year, that is why the code for further destruction is 77

[@John_Locke_108]

@@RootEight No need; you were correct. That was actually something I had never paid any attention to and didn't notice. Luckly Radsinky wasn't alive to see Locke blow it up.

[@juliet_burke]

Great catch! I never realized it!

[@RootEight]

@@juliet_burke Thanks Juliet, that fun fact can be used to argue against all those who at the time said that the Lost script was not planned and they only wrote on the fly, but no (or maybe a few things), a lot was planned well in advance

[@pewburrito]

Radzinsky is the guy who recruited Kelvin Inman to the Swan and eventually shot himself (Desmond was watching Kelvin cleaning his splatter off the Swan ceiling). Yes, prior to leaving the Island the 1st time, if the Oceanic 6 peeps walked into that room and looked at the '77 Dharma group photo they would have seen themselves.

[@ALT·245]

Was he cleaning that? I though he was painting the "Map" on the security door in that episode.

[@jmv1309]

​@@ALT·245 Yes, Inman just mention it

[@pewburrito]

@@ALT·245 good point

[@nickstark8640]

Another way of looking at it. They are living in two dimensions that are 30 years apart. Happening simultaneously.

[@pewburrito]

1977 did not happen at the same time as 2007. It happened 30 years earlier, as the show says

[@juliet_burke]

LOST is even more interesting on a re-watch! And it's so long and complex you can re-watch it many-many times and never get bored and will find new and new things you never noticed before. Tons of Easter eggs and subtext everywhere through the show.

[@anomalysakawendy5096]

Hey... Gotta give Jack credit... he took being made a janitor way better than Roger did.

[@pewburrito]

I feel like Jack would want to beat him up and have it all make sense why Ben was so rotten and cunning

[@anomalysakawendy5096]

Notice that the island healed Ben's arm. Just before Frank catches up to him & Sun... Ben flexes his elbow and then discards the sling.

[@nickstark8640]

All the new recruits are given an Aptitude Test. James gave Jack a score low enough that all he was eligible to do was janitorial work. Absolutely hilarious 😂

[@tony.g20]

I will ALWAYS believe that the reason that Richard and Ethan recruited Juliette (or even knew to recruit her) was because they knew she was special....not because of the work she had done in 2001 but because she birthed Ethan on island. Certainly there would be a record of that. I'll have more to say about this after Season 5.

[@sheikGR]

A very nice detail is the flashback sound whenever we go back to 1977, cause you know, technically this is indeed a flashback since this is what happened 😎

[@SamuelDJCox]

LOST does time travel perfectly! Yes to that 100% The writers make it about the characters as their #1 goal. So they make the rules clear that there can’t be any time paradoxes. Jack, Kate, Sawyer were always in the 70s. That always happened. So any Others on the island in 2004 when Oceanic 815 crashed who had met them in the 70s would recognise them then too. It’s a time loop they always were meant to complete. They can’t change the timeline. It’s fixed. Yes they can have an impact on future events but they can’t contradict future events. And the whole concept of time travel is put in place to explore the story themes they’ve been exploring since S1… that being people reflecting on the past and their current lives. The same thing is at play now except instead of flashbacks showing the characters memories of their former lives… now the characters are actually IN the past… the same themes are being explored in a new literal Sci Fi way. In S1 the question was “on the island can these people change and become better people than they were in their pasts?”. Now S5 is asking - can these same people in fact change the world and the timeline around them? It’s looking at what our characters can do to change themselves/their world around them just in a new way. It’s not done just for the fun of it - even though it is fun - no it’s still done to explore and underline the human themes and issues which have been in the show since S1 and the plane crash. Great reaction!

[@juliet_burke]

Love it! To me LOST is about all these themes but I precept it through Buddhist ideas of karma and dharma. "We are the reasons of our own sufferings" - room 23 video. It's all how their past actions make them in the future work on /pay for/ deal with the problems they have created. LOST is a story about life karma and people's dharma (best ways to live and act).

[@mikemoring]

This. Somebody gets it. If you were to look at only the first couple seasons of Lost, I think it would be fair to summarize it as a show about "people who seem doomed to repeat history because of their inability to stop living in the past." Season Five, for all its eccentricities, is probably the purest representation of the show's entire philosophy since day one. But so few people seem to recognize what you've articulated here-that time travel arc simply takes what Lost has always presented figuratively and presents it through a different, more literal lens. But it is absolutely consistent with the themes of the show from the very beginning.

[@SamuelDJCox]

@@juliet_burke Thank you!

[@SamuelDJCox]

@@mikemoring Thank you! Yeah - I’m so glad because the moment it all makes sense it all is so much more meaningful and the message is so life enhancing.

[@NagelLisa]

At this time in the show all of questions are very good. I think your answers will be answered soon. You will be on the edge of your seat especially with the time stuff. I think soon you'll start to get it quicker because you'll have more to go off. Thanks for your dynamic reaction.

[@teotokiz6026]

Only two seasons left until lost REALLY begins

[@jagwolf8079]

Ready for Lost to start :) (I mean, this episode)

[@TJMalana]

To help answer your question on the thirty year difference. The flash took Jack, Kate, Sayid, and Hurley back to 1977 during peak DHAMA Initiative with Sawyer, Jin, Juliet and Miles. The Hydra passengers, Frank, Sun and Ben Linus remained in the present day in 2007. Remember Eliose said that the circumstances of them ending up on the island to begin with had to be replicated otherwise the results would hav been unpredictable or in her words "Then God help us all."

[@notoriousbmc1]

Finally the runway Kate & Sawyer worked on makes sense

[@seancarletonzero]

To quote Sheamus, season 5 is BANGER AFTER BANGER AFTER BANGER AFTER BANGER! All seasons are incredible, but 5 is perfection.

[@jmv1309]

I read some comments and they are very good. Other information: When Sayid enters to the flame area, the code 14-J is mentioned, that same code is the one that Alex activated when the mercenaries entered the barracks and Alex ended up dead. The fact that Jack is designated as Workman has an explanation, remember that it was Sawyer who designated the jobs for everyone.

[@juliet_burke]

Yes, Sawyer did it for a very good reason!

[@notoriousbmc1]

Enter 77. A self destruct failsafe designed the year a "Hostile" infiltrated The Flame to spy on Radzinsky's Swan Station model😅

[@Eowyn187]

That subtle difference in Jack is nice. He's a bit calmer. Kudos for catching that. 16:53 Matthew is great at schooling his face.

[@anomalysakawendy5096]

In my view, absolutely they could've seen that photo... but folks rarely look closely at class photos like that. And I'm not sure that the processing center was being used at all by the Others when they lived there. For example, when Kate was being held in camp in Left Behind... she was in the game room.

[@kalashshah2637]

Mandatory "And this is where lost truly begins " Comment 😂

[@BillyTheKidLawrence]

Season 4, 5, & 6, AKA LOST Act 2, is peak. I like to view these as the one long mega final season since they’re all shorter than the first three and they finish the story out. Hope you enjoy the ending, despite mainly budgetary constraints keeping it from perfect. The story though, chef’s kiss.

[@TheJoroFiles]

The Runway was one of the best lost set ups ever. The whatever happened happened rule Will be put in doubt very soon or not and then yes or... The thing Is that All your questions Will be answered in time. Enjoy the ride!

[@John_Locke_108]

Yeah, back in Season 4, if they had gone into that room , they would have seen themselves in the photo. But they were a little busy trying to figure out what to do with about the freighter folks. However, Ben would have seen the photo and maybe that's why he had Sawyer, Jack, and Kate captured. But probably not because they probably hadn't thought that far ahead when they were writing Season 2.

[@ivoafonso1989]

Yes. My theory is that the picture was there all along and Ben is lying about it on the next episode, as I am sure you have already seen it. Go back to season 3, thats why the others had so much information about the survivors. And knew exactly who to pick to ask Michael to bring to them. Also, I can’t believe that you didn’t mention this already, remember when the Others, Danny specially, Juliet included had Kate and Sawyer break rocks to build some sort of runway? Did you see where the plane landed? Keep watching bro, and yes, there are a lot of easter eggs in the rewatches. Thats why a lot of people watch it lots of times. I’ll tell more once you are further on the show!

[@jmwild1]

It's good to keep "whatever happened, happened" repeating in your brain as we go on this journey. I feel like this season is exploring that and making us question whether Daniel was right to believe that.

[@Holland4evahh]

First time i watched this episode i thought about them finding Adam and Eve(the corpses) in season 1 thinking it could be anybody, even 2 of the losties. Just saying what i thought, not what will happen, enjoy the ride!

[@joselopezforque8745]

Radzinsky is the one who was pushing the hatch button with Kelvin before Desmond arrived. Remember?

[@DmitryUlybinAbc]

Back then, Calvin pointed out to Desmond a spot on the ceiling, and said it was Radzinsky

[@kaysil7813]

Juliet is recruited to the island the help women give birth and the first time she does so successfully, the baby she helped deliver ends up being one of the people who would one day recruit her. Some sick irony. And interesting to consider the looping of that. Also!! Love the job assignment stuff so much. Everyone credits Sawyer but Juliet's the one who went and got the paperwork while he was driving them back. Girly has jokes.

[@onthespoke2]

it makes more sense if you think about it less

[@ALT·245]

Exactly. But he said Lost is doing time travel perfectly. Which doesn't explain why he doesn't understand what's happening then. If it was done perfectly, he would understand it and everyone would.

[@lewisharris3400]

I feel like the Hydra station is already built in 1977. If you remember last episode, shortly before going to wake LaFleur, the Dharma people that were supposed to be monitoring the security cameras made some joke about the bears escaping their cages.

[@jeffwontshutup]

I beleive you course corrected yoursefl but you were initially reading too much into a perceived "time disparity" ... Sun & co are just in the present and the rest in the past. The island isn't in a time bubble. Our characters physically time traveled. For Sun and Frank both Islands are in 2007 and for the rest both islands are in 1977. For some reason the island caused Jack, Kate Hurley and Sayid to time travel but the plane itself landed in the year it took off. That being said, it did go from day to night ... remember the season four MacGuffin of "the bearing?" It's not explained but I've always assumed the plane flew at the island in the wrong direction and lost or gained a few hours, like what happened to the helicopter, hence going from night to day. Radzinsky has been mentioned by name before but never seen, in Desmond's first flashback. He's Kelvin's first partner, who ended up a stain on the ceiling. Between some of the things Horace said both last episode and in S3's "Man Behind the Curtain," and Radzinsky's erratic behavior here, this is where if you didn't notice, we start to see maybe Dharma wasn't so hippy-dippy utopian after all. Now that we actually get to see Dharma, at least for me, me feelings about both Dharma and the Others start to get a bit muddied and I mean that in a good way. Remember in season 2 -- "we're the good guys?" "We're gonna name him 'Ethan.'" -- Juliet IMMEDIATELY puts him down LMFAO. "I lied." -- First time Sun has admitted a lie since Sayid called her out on it in season 3?

[@4l73rn8]

Radzinsky is also the guy that shoots himself in the swan station.

[@Glennwulf]

hell yeah!!! and does the name Radzinsky ring a bell to you?

[@samjohnson7869]

So we reached the most unbelievable part of Lost: That Ethan is somehow younger than Charlotte lol

[@jagwolf8079]

35:20 yes.

[@nth_to_see_here]

Has Lost begun for real yet??

[@DmitryUlybinAbc]

13:23 It feels like Evangeline Lilly and Matthew Fox are just sitting during a break between filming and discussing whether they knew they were going to go back in time when they went to the casting of this show. I got the impression that the actors (Evangeline Lilly and Matthew Fox) could not decide how to express the emotions of their characters, from the fact that they were in 1977. Or it just seems to me. The same goes for when Jack saw Pierre Chang. Jack's reaction seemed a little strange to me. There was a feeling that the actor (Matthew Fox) just sat there and was blown away by what was happening on the set of this show. 🤣

[@juliet_burke]

Meet Radzinski! The most annoying Lost character, hated by many losties. You've already heard this name from an ex-military guy who was in a hatch with Desmond. After so many re-watches I learned to love things and people I didn't like initially: s6, the ending, all bad fathers (Sun's father, even evil Locke's father) and villains (Keamy, Ben, Wildmore), Charlie, Hugo and Claire. I love them all now, even villains - or how actors masterfully play them. The last 2 things for me to accept and learn to love are Radzinski character and one more thing I can't mention yet (the t...). I am working on it.

She got the family maid fired.

[@paulmurphy4723]

Imho, no they wouldn't have seen themselves in that picture had they gone to that station when they were first on the island, because 'they hadn't been to 77 yet'. This is also a personal interpretation and I know plenty say they WOULD have been there, but I'm using the Endgame rules & believe that their personal timelines never waiver/are a straight line, kinda thing. Either way, when Lost Lost's like this it's a real good time.

[@walletracer9882]

The Hydra station was the first Dharma settlement built, so it definitely exists in 1977. I don't think this is a spoiler to point out, as one of the Dharma people already quipped something about polar bear cages and poop in one of the previous episodes iirc.

[@tony.g20]

A big take away... Did Ben always know, or remember meeting Sayid back in 1977...?

[@cassiecure2500]

Here's the thing about that conversation between Sawyer & Jack at Sawyer's place. Yes, I get what Sawyer was saying about how Jack ran things; Jack made mistakes. But I still think Sawyer was being an ass. Like, does he not realize how many times Jack saved Sawyer's ass as well?! How about a little gratitude? Jack could have made a big stink about what Sawyer said, but I'm glad he just kept his mouth shut and moved on. Like you said. They gotta keep their egos in check.

[@markpekrul4393]

I've watched the series multiple times and have never understood this: Why did Frank and Sun find Dharmaville looking like the D.I. abandoned it? It passed from the D.I. to Ben and the initial "others" when he gassed everyone. They should have found it looking abandoned after the destruction that occurred when the freighter people were there. Anyone have an answer?

[@TJMalana]

"Our Island" Radizinsky? No Radzinsky it is NOT your Island. Not even five minutes into his introduction and I already hate is guts! Elie does that name Radzinsky ring any bell to you at all?

[@p-forest]

You didn't remember seeing Radzinsky way back in S2? I guess he looked a bit different though.

[@wellerfan13]

Nama-what? Lmao

[@briankirchhoefer]

Also you need to understand the multiverse theory where all the timelines are occurring.So a change in the past causes a new path to occur for the future. Infinite choices cause infinite timelines. Somehow the universe also corrects itself for major events to happen and even timelines can cross over. So the picture could be on the wall and not there at the same time depending on the timeline.

[@TiagoFerreira-zp9gi]

35:26 they wouldn’t be in the photo yet because from their experience, they hadn’t gone back in time yet

Wrong. Whatever happened, happened. They were always in the photo because that's what always happened. Back in Season 1, when Claire was giving birth, if Kate had looked up and into the jungle, she would seen Sawyer from the future. Time tavel doesn't change anything. We're witnessing events that have already occured.
