IN RETROSPECT: Pilot Part 2

Jack, Kate and Sawyer have returned to the beach in the second part of the Pilot. The one thing that stood out from this particular scene shown above is that in the background you hear the survivors talking about the thing they heard in the woods. One person says it sounded familiar. Is this a clue?

My FAVORITE scene from this episode was when Hurley looks at Jin's "food" with such disgust. This scene is, in my opinion, classic.


In every episode, the story progresses. Sometimes slower than we want and sometimes SUPER FAST! I am not going to be very harsh on the second part of the pilot, seeing that it was the second part of the PILOT and in reality the pilot part 1&2 are one episode. The storyline that was setup right away was the radio signal. Shannon, Sayid, Kate, Boone and Sawyer trek through the jungle to higher ground, in hope of getting a signal on the radio. IN RETRO we know that they wouldn't be getting any signal and that they would be struggling with that signal right up until the end of season 3.


AHH YES, the mysterious POLAR BEAR. Sawyer started to show his heroic side when he shot the bumbling bear and saved his "pals". The POLAR BEAR mystery still remains to this day. Yet, they have been referenced throughout the show. Eventually, Sawyer and Kate are kept in cages by the OTHERS. When Sawyer is successful in getting a "bear" biscuit from the contraption inside, Mr. Friendly informs him that the bears figured it out faster.


We also learn that Kate was in handcuffs before the crash. We learn what she did in the episode What Kate Did, or did we?

Finally, we get to the mystery that was FIRMLY ESTABLISHED and to this day hasn't been solved. We take full notice of this mystery when Charlie delivers a classic line, Guys, Where are we?

SO I ASK YOU.....GUYS WHERE ARE THEY?!?!

THANKS for READING!

NAMAsTE AND GOOD LUCK!
